An Incredible Offseason for the Nuggets
This was incredible, Rob. They’re plus 900 to win the title on FanDuel. I think they have the fifth best odds. I think that’s the best value out of all the all the title bets. Look, I just want to see Joic with a good enough team. I root for certain players. I just like watching Jokic. His team wasn’t good enough last year. They didn’t spend enough money on it. It was it was just a flawed roster. They still took OKC to seven, which was a borderline miracle. And you know what else was a miracle? Turning Michael Porter Jr. into Cam Johnson. saving $17 million a year, but this is a miracle for them to shave money. And then all of a sudden, now you get Bruce Brown and Tim Hardway and vet minimums. You’re able to trade Sarge and take back Valenud’s contract. And now I have a bench. Now I can take Jokic out of a game.
I know.
And run little sevenminute offenses around Jonas Valhunis and actually like tread water. I love everything they

Damn, BKN is insane. MPJ nowhere near that money.
Why are odds from a gambling site or Vegas so valued now? Unless it’s just to lowkey promote gambling.
And now Valanciunas is headed to Greece. My guy Jokic can't take a break
I wonder if the Kings let JV go so cheap because they knew he was heading to Greece?
And Holmes will play!
He's legitimately incapable of stopping himself from outrageous hyperbole lol. Denver has a nice off-season, "MIRACULOUS!!!!"
And now Jonas is considering going overseas which could open up the MLE to sign a guy such as … Al Horford 🤔
How did Tim hardaway get just a vet minimum lmao. He was great last season
They’re winning the chip chest season
is it me or does Bill look higher than Giraffe p***y here?
laugh at me now but the nuggets wont be much better next season. they just acquired some role players with good pr that lack the impact metrics to back it up.
"he just plays the right way"
Jonas and Jokic!
just wanna make sure everyone remembers this when the nuggets are losing in the playoffs again and simmons is crying that jokic needs help
Never seen someone overreact more to Cam Johnson and Bruce Brown.
Besides Orlando Magic. I believe Nuggets had the best free agency.
I wish Westbrook could come back
Jokic is the only person where the team gets 3 decent player and become title favorites. No all stars, not even a former all star. Crazy.
You just got done making fun of the lakers for having the 4th best odds! lol You're terrible.
Agreed. Them and Houston A+ offseason thus far
Took OKC to seven despite getting Fostered.
The Kings giving up Jonas is the biggest mistake of the season so far and it's only the beginning of the off season.
It's down to +850 from +900 now on Fanduel for the Nuggets to win it all…There is value with the Nuggets Bill agreed 👍
jamal just need to show up now…nuggs better get another backup scoring guard
It doesn't matter. Nobody is beating OKC in a 7 game playoff series for the next few years assuming they can remain healthy in the playoffs. Not happening. They still haven't come close to reaching their potential.
5th best? They took okc to 7 and just significantly improved their roster
maaaaan, relax.
they added Bruce Brown, Tim Hardaway Jr and Cam Johnson.
let those names digest.
if ANY other team landed those guys, you'd yawn 🥱
People act like Nuggets and Jokic have multiple titles. They were lucky to get out of the first round this past season. One title and one other western conference finals appearance in eight seasons. Have choked in more big game 7s than they have won.
Good moves but the best move was Hiring Jared dudley
Okay that's cool but are you sure Jonas can stay in the game vs Okc?
Welp. Still a great offseason for them. Just need a backup big. Probably another point guard too
I can confidently bet against any team with Westbrook on it.
His teammates always seem to like him and he hustles, but he just isn’t surgical enough to help a team win a title.
Nah still no decent second star. When they dump that bum murray maybe they stand a cgance
Stop it lol
There is zero chance Denver wins next year. Not even sure they get past the 2nd round. Houston, LA, OKC, Minnesota, maybe GSW I’d favor over them.
NGL, I love Bruce Brown, dude hustles on both ends and puts it all on the floor
