    Where’s that guys who told me MPJ is the worst passer in the league? I would like to have a word.

  2. i_luh_dat1990

    Guys I just went the r/Rockets. Their post game post from when they beat us 6 days ago is still pinned. That’s how much it means to them to beat the CHAMPS. Lol

  3. u/The_Aught pretty sure I saw you walking out with your Nuggets xmas sweater but you were ahead of me and I wasn’t gonna be a weirdo and run after you. Either way fuck yeah go Nuggets

  4. No_Pension_4276

    Watson not out the rotation right? Just sick probably?

  5. NuggAvsBroncRock

    BTW Jeff did get his ring tonight right? I missed the Start of the game

  6. Wakandaforever456

    Why hasnt MPJ made an AllStar team yet?

  7. Reminder: Nikola Jokic was a throwaway second-round pick that was selected during a Taco Bell commercial. He’s a two time mvp and breaking records now.

  8. No_Pension_4276

    Does anyone but KCP hit that corner 3 after 3 perfect passes? Every other player clanks it I think to ruin the perfect play. KCP always hits the important shots.

  9. NuggAvsBroncRock

    Anyway Good win time to bring on the Suns who IDK will even have their big 3 during that game.

  10. lunar_alpenglow

    Jokic with his career high 15 assist with zero turnovers. Previous was 13. His 6th career triple double with zero turnovers.

  11. Betaateb

    Jamal really doesn’t want to be at this presser right now lol

  12. Bradleys_Chubb

    Jamal looking angry post game interview

  13. BlindManBaldwin

    🙏🙏🙏 Jamal Murray’s body 🙏🙏🙏

  14. ImGonnaChubbBradley

    I’d be fine sitting Murray again for a couple games if he needs it. He really did not look like he was 100% tonight.

  15. No_Pension_4276

    Jamal and Joker have so much gravity (I know it’s an overused term) – it totally opens up MPJs shot

  16. Civil_Fox_9883

    Was it just me or did everyone on the team look like they were having fun today

  17. BoneyardBill

    Was Russ there all game or did he show up late? I was in the 300s so couldnt tell

  18. No_Pension_4276

    Justin Holiday shooting 47% from three is some crazy shit. Shot 32.2% last year. Obviously won’t continue, but I could see him shoot 40% for the season. He’s getting everything in rhythm from Joker.

  19. ImProbablySleepin

    Between the Avs, Nuggets, Broncos and now CSU basketball, I’m having an unreasonably good time right now

    Did not like the Rockets commentators at all

  20. No_Pension_4276

    Who tweeted that nobody got the DPOG chain?

  21. No_Pension_4276

    Who tweeted that nobody got the DPOG chain? DNVR just said something and my wiiiiife was talkin. I’m hoping PWat tweeted “Nobody got the DPOG chain. Hm”

  22. MPJ should play the 4 it’s a matchup nightmare for other PFs

  23. Urban_Achiever14

    Justin Holiday just knows how to play. I feel like he’s just always making the right play.

  24. skurkles

    I need a photo of Jokic’s poster from tonight

  25. TheOrthodoxPolock

    S/o to the holy Trinity of Mike, toddler Mike, and Jesus tonight.

  26. confusedjuror

    If you get blown out with Boban on your team and you don’t play him you simply shouldn’t have a team

  27. Bleppingheckk

    Friday’s game should be fun, but if Jamal needs time to feel 100%, I would take that possible L without him.

  28. griffskry

    My Nuggets city editon jacket came in the mail today, and oh boy it’s beautiful. The jerseys were hot garbage, but the jacket is perfect

  29. AlaskaFishGuy

    That MPJ stat line is what dreams are made of

  30. snakejakemonkey

    Jamal and Booker both questionable Friday, sure Jam plays

    Wonder what’s status of Gordon
