Is nugg life returning?
Im happy that prima donna P-Wat is gone. Overrated as hell imo. Choosing to sit out playoffs to keep his stats up thats some loser mentality.
We've already seen what a playoffs looks like without p-wat looks like. Denver had to bank on the potential of p-wat to be optimistic at all that the nuggets have a chance of winning another championship
Lamentablemente ensobrado Adam. Una lastima que se haya vendido asi
Skinny injury prone is going to flop in Cleveland. Jokic is a genius and makes everyone Money. Look at Brown, KCP etc.
Lol welcome back to nugg life ๐๐๐๐๐
How was Zeke Nnaji dump not part of this trade?
Cavs robbed them. Somebody needs to learn how to manage the cap. Overpaid for Braun and let Watson leave? WTF!
I donโt think Can Johnson is a better choice to trade than Peyton Watson. Weโve seen him play great for ONE MONTH. Cam was fearless in Game 6
Getting a pick for when jokic is gone. Man jokic will be lucky to win another title. If jokic retires with only one ring that would be disgusting
For anyone who thinks it is about money, below are the top 10 highest payroll teams in the NBA for this upcoming season. It isn't about money, it is that they have already locked themselves in several bad contracts and have been horribly managed for several seasons.
Denver Nuggets: ~$223.46 million
Orlando Magic: ~$223.46 million
Golden State Warriors: ~$219.12 million
Minnesota Timberwolves: ~$218.89 million
Phoenix Suns: ~$218.88 million
New York Knicks: ~$218.28 million
Oklahoma City Thunder: ~$216.41 million
Philadelphia 76ers: ~$210.65 million
Toronto Raptors: ~$209.38 million
Houston Rockets: ~$209.30 million
The Nuggets management and ownership has in my opinion mismanaged this team so much that now itโs a below average team.
Overpaid Jamal, overpaid CB, overpaid Zeke, gave up two many picks to dump Reggieโs contract. Let KCP go. The list goes on. Now you compound that by trading PW for nothing. Donโt be surprised now if the Joker leaving talks increase. Why play for a team that has no future
Stawther going loco this season
Why cant the nuggets develop their young players by ACTUALLY PLAYING THEM! Nuggets mentality: lets run our stars into the ground and never play our young players and develop them. Now another team is going to reap the benefits of Payton Watson.
When you trade "crapping the bed" for "crapping your pants"
First few minutes of the pod, Harrison the only real one. Adam and Vogt carrying all of the water.
Spend more money each year –> get worse each year
Very impressive. I am a Celtics fan but Denver with Jokic has been my favorite team to watch… kind of sad to see how Jokic's prime has been treated from a front office perspective.
Iโm with Harrison this entire episode. He was cooking. Being pragmatic about this is not the move. This was a bad bad move
In a year where Jokic didnt sign an extension and will be a free agent next year, we traded away the player he really liked so much to request to join him in the only major commercials hes been in ๐๐๐
Lets go Cavs!!!
I will die on the hill that Jokic is complacent and doesnโt care about winning if he doesnโt ask for a trade after this season. The Nuggets had like 3 options and somehow managed to make the worst possible move by far, but what else would you expect from this front office and ownership groupโฆ
Im with Harrison. I cant believe your acting so chill about this adam
All roads lead to Rome! Ownership obviously decided to trade Jokic. They don't wanna give him super max, not because they don't like Jok or they don't trust him. They can not make him be active on social media, off the court and prostitute. Therefore they are doing everything to piss him off and hoping he snaps and asks for a trade. With Kushners buying Lakers, economic downfall of USA, boycott that is spreading like wildfire across Europe and Asia, they believe it is smart to not give Jok super max.
For the ownership it is all about profit. It's sad but true
Nikola Jokic plays basketball tomorrow, that will heal us
Adam is an idiot, if you canโt make a bet on 85% chance then what are you doing
Complete mismanagement. Is the draft capital just waiting for the future non-Jokic/Murray rebuild in 3-5 yrs? Or to make the most of whatโs left of Jokic/Murray? You manage your roster by paying and developing Watson. You need youth, athleticism and $22mil/yr is a good contract. All you have for 3 drafts now is CB?? FO is not up to the task. Pay the tax for a year and you figure out how to move CB and/or Camโs expiring. This was a chance to stop the mistakes of the past. Failure
How the hell are they so delusional except Wind. Only Locked on Nuggets are talking the truth. They wanna get cheaper and use the excuse with First round fetishism like Matt said that they are โmore flexibleโ. When they just want to be cheaper. When you couldnt get a real player in return with a first for peyton watson. Then you just pay him. 22 mil is a good contract for him we all thought he would get more than CB. What the hell is going on with DNVR. Did the Kroenkes pay you?
Everyone outside of the middle screen is a moron
Guy on the left is an idiot and paid by the nuggets clearly #narrative
Sounds like you guys miss the hell out of Tim Connelly… ๐คฃ
Hopefully another move on the wayโฆ the season sucked last year but going into it, everyone expected to be the best or second best team. On paper they made great moves. Canโt ignore that
Watching this team slowly deteriorate since the championship has not been fun
Denver is showing to be one of the worst franchises (if not the worst) in taking the advantage of having the best player in the game this decade. Unbelievably how they havenโt been able to surround Jokic with better players and better roster.
22 mill. a year for PW is overpay.., but Denver did this to themselves with that CB contract. Denver is ruining themselves with overpaying the players. Especially CB, Murray (has never been worth a max contract), MPJ (previously), AG (heโs unfortunately just too injury prone), Zekeโฆ
So self destructing, from outside someone might think that someone is sabotaging the franchise from inside.
You know what now I want Jokic to leave finally. Loser ass team.
Why is Adam acting like Watson never got chances to play before last season? Malone played him many times and 75% of the time he sucked. Lol. Not sure why a good 15 game stretch means he would have been doing it so much earlier.
Can we just acknowledge that Watson wasnโt wronged in his first 3 yrs, that he took advantage of an opportunity when his game had grown to the point of being able to take advantage of it?
I mean, 2 2nds can get you half of the Thunders bench, so a 1st and a good 2nd is a good haul for PWat. It's a really good return
At this point I wouldn't even be mad at Jokic if he decided to leave. That's the only way the ownership gets hit.
