Itâs nice to see a game where the nuggets donât turn it over a ton. Needs to be part of the team when they are all healthy. Especially Jokic and Murray respectfully
Watson is weak period
If I were the team, I'd fine pwat for every tomahawk dunk he attempts. He misses way more than he makes and I'm tired of him going for a flashy play and costing us valuable points. Unless you're up 15 with 2min left, stop that nonsense!! Fans love people who score, not people who try to score flashy and miss.
Good for murray⊠bombarded all night with traps, 2 on the ball, full court pressure, and still battled. Proud of watson, holmes, spence, etc. Sad for Val. Bruce was decent but almost cost them the game with the FTs⊠made me sick. Keep grinding guys, playing with house money. Adelman finally played holmes, what in the hell took so long? đ
As far as Adam's question about what's P Wats upside, I've been saying on this channel for 2 years that he's Gen Z Tayshaun Prince. Squint a little and its so easy to see.
Walter, Shead, CMB, Barnes, they rotated and pressured Jamal all game, I liked how he still tried to make things happen
JokiÄ who? đ
I feel like PWat can be better no2 option in season or 2. 5-10 until Jok comes back is still alive. Comparing Jamal to other no1 options in the league, well he doesn't look like an all-star anymore, in the West it's SGA, it's Fox, it's Luka, it's AR, it's Ant, it's DBook, it's Curry, that's 7 people on different level than him. Thank you Adam Silver for giving him the charity spot. Finally he has done something right with the World vs USA stuff.
What is Eric talking about, so they don't practice what the bench is doing? (Well it would explain a lot) it's not like there's 4 starters and no Jok…there's basically the bench and a guy who has been staggering with the bench his whole life. I mean I have to politely disagree on that point.
Man every win with 4 starters hurt is absolute Gold
Hope Val is ok we need him
Raptor's last play defense is just as crappy as Denver's. Both teams obviously shop for defense assistant coaches in the same bargain basement dumps.
Pickett too small
Isnât Big Val going down a big deal?!?!
So proud of the guys! Tbh none of us expected a win.
So now we are 4 starters down and we lose the only backup center. The second highest paid player standing up is Zeke mfing Naji
Why hasnât Adelman been playing Holmes should be the burning question! He was highly impressive on both offence and defence throughout
Lets gooooo Nugets! Happy New Year from Serbia. â€
B brown shot need to improve, in general
Jamal had 3 players covering him most of the 1H. Tough win.
Also the FO gave CB too much money. He and Swatson deserve a big pay but CB got too much.
I wish weâd stop saying âmissing their best playerâ and instead say âmissing THE best playerâ
Again I ask… what the hell is the Nuggets training/medical/strength and conditioning staffs doing?
Trade Jokic ?
The type of win that make you feel good about the roster. Please be OK, Jonas.
I was watching this game at my New Year's party and when BI's shot went in I had to cover my mouth to not shout and rubbed my eyes in frustration…..ruining my lipstick and eyeshadow both.
For nothing.
Worth it for the win. đ
We gotta find a way to trade Zeke. Dude is just not it, especially if he cant get on the court with 5 guys out
Pwat canât hold anyone the same old pwat gain some weight sir Defense Defense sir we can score Defense will get us wins
