Are the Nuggets the DEFINITIVE 2nd best team in the NBA?
Joker looked drunk 😂❤
Bro, this game was grimey, it was like a playoff contention game
Hoping Val stays for his option. AG saving his legs for postseason and that shot is nasty. Cam going to get back and without CB feel like nuggs may find Cam fits better as a big2 and stretch with Tim or Pwatt depending on need that need. Ag Jamal Val create a super viable bench unit. They need a backup PG and that’s it. If Denver gets a legit PG for the bench unit. Idk, idk what you do to beat that team in 7.
Name to look out for is Spencer Jones. Pwatt CB Jones Cam AG Bruce 6 different dudes they can throw at shai to eat the foul baiting and stay aggressive against him without giving him the middy for free.
Love this show

Josh! I see a face from J&J i subscribe and follow religiously!
6:06 Aaron Gordon lives on a full nba sized court in Denver. His shooting has secretly been getting better since 2022/2023
Spencer Jones has been a revelation on defense. Dude’s built like OG Anunoby and if you squint you could mix em up on defense.
Jamal Murray, that reserve player of the Canadian national team, never an all star, he shoots free throws after a technical foul, he is the one who steals the ball from Nikola. He runs wild on the court and shoots twice as much as the others, and he has a three-point percentage of 16.7 – a scandal, a shame. One of the highest paid players in the entire NBA league, he acts as if he is M. Jordan, but in fact he is 0 .
Well Jokic has a sprained wrist and played through it because we have 2 starters down. 🤷🏽♀️
The problem you talk about seems to be less about PGs and more about coaching. I'm not saying you might not need a PG. The Nuggets are second in defense this year. They just put this zone in at the end of preseason. They are still learning it. They have been a great half court team the last few years but this year they have improved their 3PT%. I like your team and your coach, just not on the nights you play us. Good luck!
Rob dillingham gave them great minutes? Murray beat him consistently, thats what i saw… murray had a rough shooting game from 3 but killed it by driving for layups; also had 12 ASSists. Noice!
I beg to differ on your take b of Donte cause if you tenement the Wolves of lady year they didn't do jack Randle wasn't consistent McDaniels was up and down but ever since Dontr was put in the pg spot now you have Randle, McDaniel, and Edwards all averaging 20 or more points so it is working they just had a bad night
Last 2 years the Nuggets had no depth and everything depended on Murray and Jokic playing 38mpg. This year they are much deeper with the addition of Vananciunas, Hardaway and Bruce Brown; even 2-way guy Curtis Jones who is getting playing time now. If Jokic has some rest and help, he can dominate any team. Rudy Gobert, 4 time defensive MVP and Jokic just casually puts up 27pts, 12, 10 and didn't even look like he was breathing hard.
5:41 You think Jokić had a triple double? Bro? 😂 what? You guys have this passive statement on an all time MVP? 😂 (Clown Face)
As of November 16, 2025, Nikola Jokić has played 12 regular-season games for the Denver Nuggets, and he has recorded a triple-double (at least 10 points, 10 rebounds, and 10 assists) in every single one. This marks the longest streak to start an NBA season in history, surpassing Oscar Robertson’s previous record of four consecutive triple-doubles to open the 1961-62 season.
