Here is my take
The nuggets are not using Cam Johnson correctly
They are using him like MPJ
He is not a 3 point specialist
Cam strength is making reads
When they traded for him I was ecstatic because finally Denver could now have 2 players who play make from the perimeter and ball handling and Jokic from the post
Am just shocked he is being used as a floor spacer
The first unit Murray is the primary ball handlers then Cam
When Murray is off to stagger with the bench Cam should be the playmaking with Jokic and Timmy as the shooter
Cam is a player who gets in a rythm by making reads not dHOs shooting threes
And also Adam is right the Jokic Murray two man game is now easy to guard, if you think you will beat okc with that now way
Pacers showed that to beat okc have multiple ball handling and randomness not a steady diet of something
The Jokic Murray two man game will work with the bulls or other teams but not warriors or OKC
Desk cop street cop take was S tier ❤😂
is it possible that joker was a bit upset over the rotations or was he sick ? such a weird joker game 🙁
I'm not big on Peyton Watson. He's been in the NBA 4 years now and he doesn't bring anything offensively and no impact on defense. You have to bring something. I completely disagree with Julian falling out of rotation. I guarantee if Julian bring the ball up it won't get stripped by got damn Buddy damn Hield, Julian can handle the ball just fine. We are a little too guard heavy
Nuggets couldn't just have a run of the mil "normal" loss-like I expected. GS already played a game,& I figured it'll take a few wks for us to gel with the new guys. So I try to remind myself I fully expected they might struggle early in the season. But to play that good for basically 45 minutes,get that performance from AG,& not really have much left to have successfully closed out what would've been a gigantic road win is just disgusting. Especially since the main gagging culprit was Jokic-with some help from Murray-your 2 best players gave it away. Then you factor how insanely deep,tough,& close the west looks this yr-& OKC already has 2 double OT wins…
I hate to overreact over 1 game but it feels like those 3 results could cost you home court in the end. It certainly cost you a huge win vs a team that should be among your biggest West competitors. Not just the 2 game swing with GS but fact they now have a leg up for the tiebreaker-when you could've had a huge leg up with a road win. No games are must win in October but all things considered-with mediocre (or worse) PHX having to play in LA tonight-& then here on back 2 back,at altitude tomorrow-it feels as close to must win as you can ever have in October.
You can't give away many games in the West,& you sure as hell can't drop many home games to mediocre teams who are basically facing a "scheduled loss." Who'd thought the Nuggets would have their 1st loss before the AVS?(REAL loss-in hockey OT losses are essentially ties)I'm not surprised the Nugs lost last night but how they lost was absolutely disgusting. And I can't say I thought the AVS would get to this point with no regulation losses. Pleasantly surprised with their 5-0-3 start…Nuggets already suffer a devastating,borderline disastrous choke while Indiana,& Houston can't close the deal with lucky ass OKC.
