How did the Nuggets not get the calls that they deserve? Westbrook getting hit in the face!?! That should have gotten Chet fouled out! Massive blow by Team Ref.
Soon as I seen the starting lineup I knew the denver nuggets were cooked malone keeps choosing bad starting lineups nuggets have to play faster push the pace this lineup definitely want work in the playoffs I was right got a 24 point blowout beating terrible coaching job by Mike malone
Without JokiΔ you're π€¬
As a Denver fan..Denver cannot play against teams that play a strong and disciplined defense or hope for greater success in the playoffs without discipline and aggressive defense in their ranks. This has been proven several times against all teams that play good, aggressive defense. On the other hand, Denver is not able to constantly play aggressively in defense, and without that it is quite difficult to go far in the playoffs.
The regular season is not the same as the playoffs β when you're losing or winning a series, the sense of urgency isnβt the same, the intensity isnβt the same… Weβll see what happens. What Denver needs to do is stay in the top 3 until the end of the regular season.
Rest up tonight and get them tomorrow!
HES SO GOOD TO READ STATS BUT NOT THAT GOOD TO MAKE THEM PLAY GOOD DEFENSE THE ONLY REASON HES GOT A RIG IS JOKIC AND PEOPLE THINKS HES A GOOD COACH π π π
AGs calf is a huge issue. They are nowhere near deep enough without him. His health is a big issue.
Get a FREAKING bench then you can talk about this.
It was a,blow-out in the 4th. Oklahoma has nothing to gain from this Denver do. 3 good quarters then a blow-out. Tomorrow night is a good chance to regroup. Hopefully Westbrook is a starter. He got 29 points when the nuggets beat them earlier in the year
The game changed when the call was not made for the uppercut on Westbrook. Nuggets started to play discouraged. The referee for these games horrible. Basketball needs VAR like football. But then again these refs making some kinda calls like they got paid off.
Okc just to good man . Denver need to trade mpj n cb real fast
Okc has 10 great players, and denver played with 7 players only. It makes a huge difference
This guy has zero plays when Jokic is on the bench, just counting the minutes while guys go ego tripping, iso plays and shooting reckless bricks…
Head up . We will win next one. Joker for MVP.
Absence of defense is the real issue for Denver. You wonβt simply be able to outscore everyone, especially in the playoffs. Most teams these days sort of entertain for the largest part of the game and save their defensive energy for isolated situations particularly at the end of the gameππ
Jokic contract with the Nuggets extends till 2027. If they don't win any more titles, it will be a failure by the coaching staff and management to have wasted his years with Denver. Hope they can fix their issues with the top teams, or it will be an early exist in the playoffs. The Nuggets should not have to count on history breaking triple doubles to win games. If the others don't step up, they will be gone next season. It will be interesting to see what happens in the coming months . . .
Nugs in the long run need MPJ to play consistently like the star he looks like at times especially come playoff time. If he and Murray can bring it and Gordon can get healthy Braun is coming along. But thatβs a lot of big ifs. Defense needs to take it up a notch as well. But theyβve got one of the better coaches I wouldnβt count them out yet.
