it's crazy how some fans asking for AD to get fired after tonight loss, lets just forget how many starters missing, forget why we have rebound disparity, insane lack of basketball knowledge
Jalen Pickett is able to read the game significantly better than Bruce and more importantly is a willing and Better three point shooter than Bruce. Jamal canât get doubled all the time in the second half then guys just fumble multiple opportunities. Maybe Jalen fumbles as well but at least he can play make and manipulate a defense.
Another butt-kicking by the Lakers!đ
THJ TAKETH AWAY
"even JJ-" bro both of these guys who cant even see their own dicks talking crap about a former pro player becoming a head coach lmao clown way to cope with your loss tonight
Two fraudulent teams meet: DEN without Jokic 7-5 (58.3%), BUT -3.6 (21th), 15th on offense, 25th on defense = 32.4 expected wins (DEEP LOTTERY). LAK 26-16 (61.9%), BUT -0.2 (17th), at least 7th on offense, but 23rd on defense = expected wins 40 (deep PLAYIN). Give credit to DEN everyone of those 7 wins counts same as any other win, but that does mean they good without Jok, doesn't mean they are mediocre, it just means they played bad teams, not focused teams, teams that underestimated them, played their ass off, and put in some lifetime performances and hit some crazy shots. With that said we have 3 games left, hope these guys realize what they are, they are "effort merchants", I believe Jok is coming back for the home stand, we play WSH, they want to loose, MIL, they want to loose, MEM they are bad. We should go 3-0, but can we get over ourselves and put in PO level effort and go at least 2-1.
Adam sounds like he thinks we are 60% 3p shooting team. So angry about terrible performances, because "nobody" could hit anything. WE SHOT over 40% from 3 for the game, so we hit everything 1st half and less in the second half, it's called variance.
the nuggets are a barely above 500. Team and this is a better roster then last year, for people who said joker has help need to get their heads checked, put this nuggets team in a 82 game schedule and they are out of the playoffs, last year the nuggets where also injured jamal was out of shape and joker had them in 4th place take away joker games that he won and start a new season like I said these nuggets are out of the playoffs in 9th place in the west.
NBA-GPT: How do you stop the offense of a Jokic-Murray team that doesn't have Jokic?
— Without Jokic your defense should be focused on the one primary offense weapon Jamal Murry because he has shown to be an all star caliber player this year. While very well run the Denver Nuggets team doesn't reach the highest offensive ceiling without Jokic so zone or double team play aimed at limiting Murray should be highly effective.
Would you like me to further elaborate with diagrams on how Murray's shot making and playmaking can be hindered? Don't hesitate to ask!
Your favorite Lakers Fan here. I couldn't watch the game, I seen in the 3rd y'all were up and then idk what happened. Nvm I just seen we had like 30 FTs. Yeah sorry about that and we out rebounded Denver by a lot.
Collapse? Another game thrown away by DA. Bruce Brown invisible on both offense and defense, yet he didn't get him off the court. THJ came on with two minutes left when they were already down by eleven.
what a sweet victory even without our 3rd best player Austin Reeves
A superchat mentioned giving Strawther a run over Bruce Brown and I kind of agree. In terms of VORP (Value Over Replacement Player, an advanced stat that Jokic DOMINATES), Bruce Brown is the worst player on the Nuggets roster, narrowly below Strawther in 2nd last. Bruce has been so bad lately that he's worse than the guy that everyone thinks is unplayable in the rotation this season. The difference is Strawther can hit a floater and has a 3 point shot. Strawther is awful on defense but it'd be hard to get worse than Bruce right now as he fouls 3-point shooters.
That said, hopefully the injured players can come back and we don't have to play either of them very much as we get ready for the post-season.
This team is 2-1 without Jamal in this stint, so it's not like they all suck and Murray is the one winning the games. (5-4 with Murray counting the MIA game)
Nuggets and their fans are such front runners smh.
Losing on purpose solely to maintain Jokic legacy that was built on his team âneedingâ him to get those triple doubles.. such a fraud franchise itâs maddening
71 in first half and barely finish the game with 100.. literally canât have too good of a record without jokic or his legacy is over so this was a necessary, strategic loss
Yeah Jamal isn't really to blame for this game, but boy are defending him super hard, almost as if you think that he actually is.
Bruce is just way to passive. He plays with not enough confidence.
Refs, idc what anybody says , this game was decided by the refs giving the Lakers 17 free throws in the 4th…as one would expect in the NBA
Get Bruce Brown outa here
Bro can't remember how it feels when you make a shot
Too much basketball talk between the ads
Last nightâs game a classic reason why you need at least one big man to shore up the rebounding⌠even Big Val would have swung this game the other direction
Eventually the fans who pay good money are going to stop showing up since, the nuggets do not show up for their fans. Yea keep losing at home.
Rebounding is more than height. Position and boxing out and important. Unfortunately due to their height most guys in the league don't box out. Like they never learned how to do it because they have a height advantage.
I've never been impressed with Ayton's motor or basketball dedication either, but these guys saying Redick decided to go with another player and sat him in the 2nd half isn't true at all…he had an injury….if you're analyzing a ballgame try and at least get your facts right. Also, wasn't it jut like 3 games ago Adam was talking about how exciting these kinds of games were and how he'd already seen enough of the team playing with Jokic? Lol….how times change.
Why do not play stawther or Holmes…no one was making a basket
I donât feel like the Nuggets canât rebound they just donât rebound!! I donât get it
