The Nuggets and Nikola Jokic traded MPJ because of this #nba #basketball #nuggets #nikolajokic #fyp
Nicole Joic and the Nuggets traded Michael Porter Jr. because of plays like these. It has something to do with his basketball ability, but more so because of the brain farts he has. The Nuggets are down by two and after they go on a three-on-one fast break. Porter for some reason runs to the corner instead of getting a dunk and this forces Denver to settle for a three to lose the game. A huge wasted opportunity. Then you have this play where on the previous possession, Porter is matched up on door. But after the Nuggets push the ball ahead and get a put back from Joic, now it’s OKC’s turn to push it. And watch Joic. He’s screaming at Porter saying Mike. And this is because Porter for some reason is guarding his man Caruso. And that leaves door open for a wideopen three. And you can see after the play how mad Joic is. But that’s not all. Check this play out against the Celtics as Joic and Porter are guarding the pick and roll. Yic literally points a signal MPJ to switch, but Porter for some reason doesn’t listen. And even when Joic has Holiday completely covered at this point, Porter stays. Boston gets a wideopen three. And again, Nicola is pissed. And how about this play? probably the greatest assist of all time ruined because Porter for some reason moves out the way. I’m not going to blame him too much for this because this just might be miscommunication, but not much I can defend on this next play that I have. The Nuggets again find themselves in a fast break situation. This time a threeon-one with Joic, Brown, and MPJ. And for some reason, I do not know, Porter decides to throw an alleyoop to Joic. And a cool space at the end of this says it

He is 6ft 10 but I have never seen fight for rebounds like Jokic.
That pass from jokic was terrible
Nuggets won this trade by a mile. Cam is far more versatile and collected in big situations…and I like him better generally speaking. He's a super natural hooper with a very high ceiling. I'm no nuggets fan but I'll def tune into the games now that Jokic has some form of real help.
The first play was not his fault there were like two other players I couldâve cut, and he made the wrong play
Your content diabolical!
Don't quit your day job!
The depth nuggets have could help them contend in the west as cam Johnson has great bball iq
It aint easy workin w a dumb coworker đ
MPJ is so useless if he doesnât have a ball in his hands
Idk some of those plays werenât all on MPJ. But Cam Johnson is an upgrade tho.
You should have started with âthrow an alley oop to Jokicâ and we would have understood bro đ
I watched most Nuggets playoff games this year, and I think I never saw Porter put the ball on the floor and attack the basket. He's a really good shooter but the fact he's not able to attack a closeout really limits his offensive ability. And he's not much of a passer either. That's why I like the trade, Cam Johnson seems to be able to put the ball on the floor, pass better and he's also a great shooter. Sounds just like an upgrade on every single point to me.
They traded porter for financial flexibility not a few cherry picked bad plays.
Cam johnson just have healthy problem like Murray
MPJ advantage his always available
Hope Cam Johnson learning how to take care his body and become all star this season because his teammate his Jokic who always help his teammate to get open shot
Aaand he's stupid habit of picking the ball WAYYY early and gets stuck which leads to turnover the most time
So Porter Jr has no basketball IQ.
hes thick as bricks
They need to bring back shaqin a fool for this
Michael Porter Jr has the worst contract in NBA history
bro never passes the ball and the only time he did
It's the last clipđ
Alley oop to Jokic
People think Jokic doesnât care about basketball. He just doesnât care about being in the NBA. If you watch he actually plays with so much passion
smh.
Great vid.
