  1. How is someone getting injured the best possible thing? Injuries r no joke and the worst part of sports.

  2. YESSS!! Those young guys getting more minutes and experience helped a lot, look at P Wat and where he is now he’s looking like a star

  3. If Jamal Murray didn’t have Jokic on his team, he would be a star in the league. He’s just playing how he needs to

  4. Watson will return back to normal when Jokic gets back and hogs all the possessions

  5. So Jokic prohibits his teammates from reaching their max potential? Nice

  6. I was at the Wizards game and what wowed me is how casually PWat puts up these numbers. He's not flashy at all – watching the game live, I wouldn't have been able to tell you he dropped 30 if they didn't have the stats up on the big screen. He just goes out there and hoops

  7. Honestly a big hit was also that Cam injury. The Nuggets really found quite a nice balance with him and Jamal spliting minutes to run the bench unit prior to his injury.

    Cam himself doesnt really force the bench unit to play any difrently, though i am a bit worried about how many touches everyone gets when Jokic is back.

    Like at this point i dunno if CB should maybe be benched for Pwat to go to the starting lineup and play the 3 (moving Cam to the 2) and just going all in on shooting.

    Now if someone should sacrifice touches imo it should be AG. He has grown so much as a shooter and his abilitiy to put the ball on the floor has been amazing, but i worry about his durability at this point. Better to lower that and let him focus on shooting and doing his thing from the dunkers spot.

    Realisticly the best thing is just to run a bunch of pick n roll with everyone. Make the Nuggets just annoying as hell to defend.

    Go pnr with Jamal when guard defenders are weak or when a team only has 1 good perimeter defender, go with Cam. Or when the team is too small, run pnr with Watson or just a 3 man action with Jok, Jamal and Pwatt (similar to the 3 man actions run by Jokic, Jamal and AG).

    Then again youd also want CB out there as mucb as possible with Jokic, as thatswhere CB shines the most.

    Pickett should probably start playing more backup minutes than Brown at this point. With Zeke at least getting 10 minutes a night at the 4 and big Val getting 14+.

    The rest stick to the same. Keep at least 2 starters out with bench units and then close the last 6 minutes with the best performers.

    Dam the Nuggets now god too many guys fighting for minutes. Its awesome ngl

  8. Nah but the teams they’ve been playing are genuinely awful and they’re barely squeezing out wins. They’ve played the wizards twice, the hornets, bucks and I believe kings. They lost to the nets and some other ass teams. They need jokic back

  9. Hopefully Murray or Gordon finally gets an All Star appearance they deserve it man this is probably the only year it can happen for them

  10. jokic's team is great without him, he's the mvp
    shai's team is great without him, he's a fraud and deserves to rot in hell. and he's a free throw merchant

  11. Dawg you've been saying nuggets gonna win the finals for the past 3 years get off ur knees
    Jokic never winning another ring again

  12. Sadly Andrew will be saying this in 2 years when the chiefs are fully rebuilt and Mahomes leads them to another Super Bowl

  13. i used to hate on david adelman for being a nobody high school coach but he's beating the odds fr, i'm now glad they didn't hire one of the coaches like d'antoni, vogel, brown or buddenholzer who teams pass around like players do with the same 3 IG models
