I’ve loved watching him so far. I feel like there’s an odd kinda wave of really good 6th men/very good bench scorers around the league now. Hope I can say the same for Pritchard this year too. Those two are absolute buckets. I think a lot of the nuggets bench can take big leaps too. They’re young, they can go from a decent bench to one of the best in the league. Looking at guys like Braun for that.
I'm still worried about the playmaking/ball handling we lost from Brown. It really helped the team having at least 2 of Jokic, Murray, and Brown on the floor during the playoffs. Braun isn't a playmaker/handler, Strawther isn't a playmaker,/handler Reggie we'll see what he has in the tank at this point, Holiday isn't a playmaker/handler…
However I do agree if Strawther even comes CLOSE to what he's showing right now in the regular season the ball handling is my last question about the second unit.
A defensive lineup of Reggie, Julian, Peyton, Christian and Zeke would go crazy off the bench. Each of those guys has a unique offensive skillset too so they don't overlap. I think the bench will be even better than last year, people forget they played bad for a while.
He gives them a nice weapon of the bench (and so far not a a defensive liability) but they need someone to actually run the second unit offence, which is likely not him. But he's going to be a wrecking ball the limited time he actually gets with Jokic.
Julian is an efficient scorer. You can see it in the 3 games so far. But also you can confirm in his Gonzaga numbers. I see him as a Duncan Robinson or Tyler Herro. But I hope he is better than that. Those guys score, and do nothing else. I hope Julian turns out to be a decent rebounder and passer, and good defender. The block in last game looked quite impressive.
I agree with this video that I can't wait until the season start for the Nuggets! And I hope that Julian joins the Puerto Rican team in the olympics! For the Nuggets I hope Jokic apparent weight gain is not a problem. His weight loss back when the pandemic started helped him a lot to improve his game. I hope that is not a factor.

Calvin Booth does it AGAIN. This man can't miss
YooO! New season, new setup! Love it!
Exactly the scoring we need off the bench. Huuuuge improvement over Bones Hyland. Second unit can be dominant if P-Wat has a good year
Strawther looks very good. But still a little early to say if he will be a game changer. I’m looking for PWat to be that guy this year

Hyland clenching his fist in regret
He will be a starter
nuggets have 2 first teams
Bro Julian just seems like such an adult already. Calvin needs to be getting eoty this year.
How does Calvin Booth keep getting away with this??
Found you from twitter. Love the videos.
