The Denver Nuggets Situation Is A DISASTER!

1. Thank you to Vuori for sponsoring this video – performance apparel that’s built to move in and styled for life. Head to https://vuori.yt.link/fiemzPS

2. Why was everyone in New York ?

3. Why were you and Low in NewYork together?

4. Trade Idea

   Warriors Trade
   Moses Moody
   Jimmy Butler
   1st Round pick

   Nuggets Trade
   Aaron Gordon
   Cam Johnson
   Zeke Naji

   Then you gotta sign some guys but it gives them a lil flexibility

5. ALL HAIL LORD PRESTI!

6. Nuggets highkey gotta activate the disaster draft i’m done with this team

7. Hard to be a good NBA player if you’re bad on defense and bad at 3p shooting.

8. I hate this team

9. That’s a cocky-ass move recording a post with the world’s most boring backdrop. Way to go my man, your excellent content can carry it

10. Im sad that whenever a star player cant win for his team, everyone says the answer is to jump ship and go to another team😢

11. Nobody in their prime don't want to play with jokic and in Denver. Y'all act like y'all don't see how terrible of a defensive player jokic is. Playing in Denver with a high altitude it's one thing, but picking up jokic slack on the defensive end is another.

12. Their starting 5 is fine. Their problem is the minutes Jokic is not on the floor them going down by 12. Derozan should be able to put up enough to keep them neutral-adjacent and for this team that's huge.

13. Welcome to LAC Jokic

14. 10:56 who hasn’t KD talked shit about on social media bro 😭

15. The Braun contract is a lesson in don't pay players who play only great in contract years.

16. They overpaid the white guy 😅

17. The MN Timberwolves were dramatically impacted by the new CBA as well.

18. Christian Braun is literally the entire problem with this team. How people think that he is anywhere near the money he is worth is beyond me. I saw dude dunk near somebody on 3/16 shooting and proceed to get a tech talking shit. He needs to be eradicated from not only the team, but the NBA. I dont see any other team giving him a chance.

19. Rusty you looking good bro (pause). Congrats on the weight loss

20. The Nuggets are one Jokić departure away from becoming the new Sacramento Kings
    and yeah Jokic is not gonna win another chip with DeRozan

21. GREAT pickup by the Cavs tho

22. 10:45 Of course KD doesn't like a nice, intelligent, affable guy like Jokic, why am I not surprised

23. The 2nd apron is just a way for Billionaires to limit the earnings of Millionaires.

24. No idea if this is the case but I wonder if Denver would be in this position if they'd kept either Calvin Booth or Michael Malone. Both had their faults to be sure but would a Malone coached team lose to the depleted Wolves? Booth made bad signings(Nnaji) but the current primary decision making duo extended Braun, signed Valancunis and traded MPJ. Again, I don't know but I wonder if they should have kept one of them

25. Spencer Jones, Marvin Bagley and Tyus Jones are depth pieces but not consistent bench players for teams with championship aspirations. Add an ancient DeRozan,who at least can still produce,and this is a bad bench

26. Derozan is a serious version of Westbrook but that doesn't mean he's a good player.

    If I'm Jokic, I'm demanding a trade. The team is not good enough to compete.

27. I'm a Kings fan. Signing DeRozan is not "fine." He's not good any more, and there have always been legitimate questions about much he really helped winning teams.

28. You are a basically a Shein clothing brand from collab to being the Nuggets. You and Watson are the sane. That was shameless, I like you're politics, but that leans heavily against it. Nuggets ain't wanna pay to a dude that acted like he was injured.

29. #freejokic

30. diaster? the roster aint that bad and they did adress the atheticsm point to an extend but they need shotblocking

31. I feel like all this was avoidable with simple math. It's so bad it looks like sabotage.

32. tbh i always was expecting Jokic to be in current situation with this office/team so when he won multiple mvps and bloody ring for me it was miracle

33. The issue isn't the aprons. The issue is and always will be that the salary cap exceptions are based around age and service (thanks Lebron and Chris Paul for ruining contract agreements), and not based around whether a team gets rewarded for developing their own talent.

    If there was an exception to the salary cap tiers for drafted players, this would not be an issue at all. Instead we have years of service. So a player will stick out a contract with one team, sign a supermax and then get traded but count to the full cap.

34. 11:13 it's ok man, you can just say the Kings lol

35. Jokic to Miami soon.

36. Jamal is one of the worst defenders at league, he had always problem with his match up, and mostly his guy is that one who have offensive explosion in game against Nuggets.

37. Hope I run into you in NYC rusty. I got a beer and some hot dudes to introduce you to

38. Nuggets really got cooked hard by the 2nd apron. Signing CB was the nail in the coffin but we have no picks no money no assets. P wats gone AG’s hurt all the time every single team knows cb is overpaid. Its either trade Jamal or Cam and i dont think youd get equal or better value for either of them. Joks too old to true rebuild too so yup

39. Jamal Murray ACL injury also played a factor…..Looked like a 2-3 time future champions in the bubble……

40. As a life long Nuggets fan, it's not a disaster. Anyone who was around at the end of the Moe era and rode things out through the 90's and early 2000's knows what a disaster looks like. The Nuggets are about as far from that as humanly possible. Are they a realistic threat to win a championship? Probably not.

41. Maybe dave joerger can help with the defensive issues, but their defensive personnel is just so limited

42. Jokic was crafty as fuck in the clutch of game 1 vs okc in 2025.

43. Nope derozen is significantly better

44. As a die-hard Nuggets fan, I think Jokic should go. I hate that Luka is on the Lakers. I feel any championships won in L.A. should come with an asterisk, since the league rigs it for them time and again; however, I'd like to see the two play together on a team with the right defensive players around them, and if anyone can pull it off, it's L.A. If that is what it takes for Jokic to get his flowers, then so be it. Then the league can take care of Denver as they did for the Pelicans and Mavericks when they shipped their star to L.A. for nothing.

45. You only get 1 chip in this era.

46. All nuggets have to do is entice a sponsor and pay watson like what clippers are doing. Easy peasy

47. Denver was the best fast break team in the league when Christian Braun had his 15 PPG season. A big reason was because Braun ran those fastbreaks together with Westbrook, who already declined drasticially but was still elite in the fastbreak department. Having Jokic to catch a rebound pass it to Westbrook who can then pass to Braun was a huge part in his breakout. And when you get a confidence boost with easy points, the effort on defense works better and suddenly the three pointer will fall to a solid degree. But without Westbrook, Braun isnt good enough to run those fastbreaks alone and everything else falls apart.

48. It sucks to see the Nuggets fade from contention but…that's how these things go. I object to the idea that Jokic's career has been seriously "wasted." Having one year where it all comes together is as much as you can hope for in the 2020s NBA. Some combination of bad contracts, poorly-thought out trades, age, and injuries have hit every champion of the decade.
