  1. Here is the million dollar Question. It has plagued the team for now 3 years… Nikola. It seemed like the effort on defense was not the same as other games this year. Do you think the offense is so good that you can overcome no defense? Ask the fucking question. No more layups.

  2. Very poor defense by the Denver Nuggets; it’s a shame to concede 130 points to the Chicago Bulls. Stronger teams than them barely reached 100 points. I think the Denver Nuggets underestimated the Chicago Bulls, and that’s why they lost the game.

    Half of the points the Nuggets conceded came from Bulls bench players??

  3. It's ok to say we all fuked around and thought they would fold cause they are on back to back.Nikola that was horrific closing out by you guys on 3point shooters.Cam❤❤

  4. The next game is against the Pelicans, and I hope they take that one more seriously, and then after that comes a very tough game against the Houston Rockets, where I’m not very optimistic about Denver’s chances of winning. Denver needs to stop losing games to teams they are better than, especially when playing at home.

  5. As someone who was furious about these losses last year. I’m really not worried about this one lol bulls shot amazing and we didn’t. Defense has shown me they will be better.

  6. Bulls are not shit this year! Bulls played tight defense. Nice Offense schemes with the center making a lot of plays. Crazy that Nicola had an off night.

  7. Murray is completely useless on D. Always has been a cone, nothing more. One of the worst guards, in the league, on that aspect, yet one of the highest payed.

  8. That true
    Jokic said they must play aggressive
    Because they look down bulls, Jokic Murray and Gordon seem so relax
    Q4 seem have fire but hope they learn the lesson, play defense and aggressive early
    Murray is tough shooter but that turnover is kill

  9. It was just one of those nights. These types of games Helps them see their mistakes and learn from them. When they lose its not by much. I agree, they overlooked Chicago, but when they play them again, they'll blow them out. Teams are going to look at what Chicago did and try imulate that, and will get destroyed. The NBA is about adjustments, besides, it's early in the season still, and these guys are just getting used to playing together. They'll be fine. Time to go on another run. Go Nuggets!

  10. Bulls bench just played great, outplayed the Nugg's bench, as simple as that , either def or offense — Nugg's in general got outplayed …
    still, people will blame it to Nikola…

  11. I know we hate losing but chill guys. Check the lose streak of Bulls. They were bound to win. Nuggets lacked energy. Maybe due to fatigue because they came from road games with a back to back. I'm fine with them losing to a team like Bulls.

  12. Question. How could Bulls shoot 5 times more then nuggets if both of them had same amount of rebounds, nuggs had more steals, less TO, more blocks. How is that mathematically possible? Genuine question

  13. The Nuggs have lost 3 games: against GSW in OT, against the Blazers at the last second with unbelievable calls and against the Bulls by 3 points. I think they dropped this one because they were cocky and played really poor defence, expecting the Bulls to be tired after a double OT. I hope it will be a good lesson and play seriously in all the games of this kind. OKC does, building good habits will pay off at the end.

  14. It would be nice if reporters would ask the right players the right questions. Some questions for Jokic would be better to ask other players, you know?

  15. There is an old saying coined by I believe Magic Johnson of all people, which ties to Jokic not bothering to waste time blaming refs. That statement is play good enough to take the refs out of the picture. Last night, there were stretches where the Nuggets couldn't buy a basket even if you bought one on Amazon and had it sent to the arena via courier. It was a flashback to the last few seasons, no bench contribution, can't defend on 3's, and also can't hit on 3's. I'd chalk this game up to poor preparation and looking at the stats thinking the Bulls will roll over. Nope.

  16. I'm really happened this happened. I really hate nikola Jokic becaue he decided to become "loyal" and stay on Nuggets. Enjoy 9 points mate, your effort is irrevelant and no one cares about you and clearly you dont care about winning either. Kareem, MJ wouldn't even spend a second in that team and Kareem didn't even like basketball. But Jokic really doesn't. Get the money and go back to your horses to your happy place Nikola.

  17. Jokic needs to get in this teammates faces and call them out. He needs to bring the fire. He needs to have them be scared of him. They spend too much time going through the motions. This team is not playing at championship level. OKC brings the fire every game, and that's because of SGA's leadership. Being an MVP is more than stats. It's leadership. And "not arguing with refs?" Sure, Nikola, why not do more to show people you don't care about basketball? Jokic needs to get technicals now and again. Fire it up, big Serbian, don't tone it down.

  18. Face it Bulls Bench couldn't Miss 15 3s from Bench Players..19 total 3s..no one beats that .Nuggets came back but 19 3s .forget it
