They've been increasingly lackadaisical for weeks. It's only gotten worse. I'm glad the coach recognizes it. I'm tired of seeing it.
The Nuggets lackadaisical attitude has been ongoing since the after break streak pooped out. It's been weeks and it's not improving. What's taking so long?
without Reggie, Denver would have lost by 35. Play the guys that fit this series. Not about minutes…itz about fit.
Why is exhausted always the escape goat for our starters? Every team is exhausted. Either you want to win another championship and believe you can or youβre just not up for the task and youβre okay with being one hit wonders. But all of Colorado believes you can win this thing again. So fight. If not for you then for the state of Colorado and all of the Jokic fans around the world.
Greatest coach in the NBA for sure!
That slow start and lack of anything down the stretch was⦠shocking. Feel like everyone is waiting for someone else to make a play and not stepping up.
Dennver is cooked, goodbye series
Such a great gentleman
Put Zeke on Reid .dude can Alter Shot's ..both lanky and Quick..not likely but got to try something if he gets Hot. Reid killed any Comeback for Denver
A sweep is coming.
Murray is going to come out swinging! Heβs a killer weβre yet to see the NUGGETS best basketball. This game exposed the Wolves and if I were them I would be worried. Same as Phoenix last year, they had to be perfect (Booker 85% shooting), to win against the Nuggets.
Nugget fans howβs that humble pie taste πππππokc #1
Denverβs best player donβt even want to be playin ball he rather be riding ponies πππ
You don't know wow to lose bad luck some is the Bill the Kid faster than you and tall than you Bill Russel Wilth Chamberlain Karem MJ Kobe America is not going to be dominant by European is shame good luck Lebron is a old Manπππ
Malone acts and speaks like he has won multiple championships. Without Jokic- he would be a sub-par coach. Excited for him to hold another L. Jokic is his daddy.
play d jordan more….
Jokic got his own medicine ππππππππππππππ
0-4π
This man is a leader and a great coach.
Broke down what they as a TEAM failed at.
Not reffs
Not blame venue
Or injuries.
He blamed themselves all together.
As well as compliment that the rival team is great.
Should be taken seriously.
As well as fugure out what they need to do to win.
This man is a hell of a coach.
Stay hungry for the championship to make a Repeat ,Must think always that you are all the Challengers.π
Jamal Murray and the Nuggets got away with taunting while Edwards and Twolves got called for taunting.. Stop paying the refs Jamal Murray!!! The NBA issued an apology today cuz everyone called them out. Even playing against the refs, Twolves still win. Edwards shined while Jamal Murray got shut out in 1st half and got away with a major taunting technical foul. I guess an average point guard can't play against superior DEFENSE. Yes, stop making excuses about his calf. He looks normal, but can't match-up against Twolves and their young studs. Murray's age is on display. Shame on you Murray and Nuggets!!! If Twolves win game 2, Nuggets will be swept 4-0 and Murray should retire!!!
Just to keep the d*** riding to minimum. Malone is 41-32 in the post season.
Not yet worthy of being called a great head coach.
Without Jokic- his record would be way worse.
The dude speaks and acts like he is Phil Jackson… lol
Obviously coach saying Gordon not offensive player enough and we all no Gordon the best of the team he took Gordon out of the game who does that knowing Murray and joc terrible at defense you did not give Gordon a chance taking his time giving to other players that played worthless
Gordon let loose play your game stop playing nice guy on the court shoot the darn ball you don't have to wait for joc are Murray your not no one water boy on the court play your game wake up
