Defensively still utterly disorganized and lost. Those next 5 games will surely be amazing! 😃
This is modern day hack-a-Shaq defence though… Call it hug-a-Jok if you want.
Use a smaller (wing) player to front and constantly hang onto, hug, and hold a bigger player, and just bet on the refs not calling it because it's a little guy defending a bigger guy.
As a countermeasure against it, Jokic has just started to flopping when he's being hugged, and it looks like this: Unwatchable garbage
And the worst part is that it still frustrates Jokic immensely and still throws him off his game, and it's not going to change until that bitch Adam Silver changes things or gets booted.
Jokic is such a grifting foul baiter and dirty player, why is he always falling on guys a 100 pounds lighter than him? Why does it seem like when he does this it’s never his fault?? Hmm he needs to be suspended for a game or 2, draymond walked so Jokic can run.!!
Today is the day I stop watching the NBA. This was a clear example of a script dictated by the league. What the referees did today was shameful. Three quarters of them allowed everything against Nikola and Jonas. Holding, shoving, pushing, smacking, slapping. But on the other side of the court, any contact was a foul. Of course, in the fourth quarter, then they finally called the contact.
Clearly, the referees had orders to keep the game alive until the end. Perhaps because the Jazz are clearly tanking and they want the games to be entertaining, at least, so they don't lose viewers. But today was a farce. The first foul called on Utah for holding Nikola was at the end of the second quarter. Unbelievable.
There's little you can analyze about a team if, on one hand, they don't allow you to attack, and on the other, they don't allow you to defend. My only complaint is that DA should have been ejected for two technical fouls before halftime, given what we witnessed.
The Matt dude is such a know it all and he always cuts off Ryan’s point to tell him he’s wrong lol sorry Ryan love the effort bro
Jokicu se vise ne igra za ovu luzersku ekipu! Ako je pametan otici ce i nece produziti ugovor! Nikola + Luka zagarantovana titula! Lejketsa!
Lol, that hiccups advice i got to try out now.
Nick Angstadt crying into his analytics data watching another Locked On Nuggets pod run well over time as Matt Moore explains how the Master Hand from Smash Bros will cure hiccups
apperently all you have to do is put a smaller player on jokic and he is finally solved. Refs will never call the foul cause he is le 100 pounds heavier, so you can just beat him to death each game.
Jokic played extremely dirty last night and the refs rewarded him. I’m not sure how that happens.
I'm up voting just for the hiccups advice.
Jokic mast improov his nombers or something, 30 15 15
So everyone complains when the nuggets don't win, now we're complaining That they won? Yal setting yourself up for failure with that mindset.
When the jezz aren't tanking they can hoop 🏀
After seeing that Jokic play on Keyonte… believe me when i say I don't say this lightly, but maybe Dort had a point when he tripped Jokic, and he won't be the only one tripping Jokic if he keeps his act up.
15:19 It is still very questionable anyway that the coaching staff suddenly dont give enough mins to Zeke and Daron when they were kinda good during the injuries stretches. We can also put the fact that Julian played really wel these last games and they decide to prioritize THJ instead of him with the mins when THJ was bad in a lot of aspects
Let’s not forget the refs bailed us out . This was more of a refs win than our own lol. Adelman lost the plot and this was the most embarrassing jokic game I’ve seen in some time
WOW a smash bros fan?! Love these guys more and more!!!
Thank God Karl Malone and John Stockton wasn't playing.
No issue jumping on peoples backs? Lmao. This isn't a one game occurrence fellas.
Forgot what it feels like to be a fan of normal team. I am stressed. We used to be such a good clutch team. Those days may be gone. Nuggets have been so good for so long. I am along for the ride. I am a fan. Let’s go. Stress and all.
Yeah let’s put one of our best three point shooters and a guy that can create his shot on a short leash (Julian) wonderful Adelman
Yall are wild…. how can you honestly say Julian should play less? Hustles more than many out there and contributes. I don't get your takes sometimes 😅
Yeah Joker is sick of you too, and sick of this trash franchise, he got stabbed in the back so many times by his team, he got injured by his teammate , franchise full of Judas…He needs to go, he has no joy as Jimmy Butler would say…
Joker should be ashamed.. dude is 2 good to be flopping and playing like that.
You both watched the trash the Joker did & you just smile like it didn't happen. Every1 saw it. Why does a dude that's that great have to play basketball like that. He's already ended 1 players career doing this stuff. It'll be someone else soon
What a Nuggets team lol. Only Jamal showed up. I swear I would whoop their asses sometimes if i had a chance. At least coach Malone knew when to take a baseball bat to the knees of his own guys when they played like this. HAHHAHAHA
So Many dirty and disgusting plays by Jokic tonight, absolutely disgusting watch. I’m sure the hosts will sweep in under the rug but will shame okc. Classic nugggets
Denver is not a serious team. They stink right now.
The favoritism from the refs was extremely hard to watch in the 4th. Then to hear the podcast then flip the script so it appears they are clutch. Cringe..I will be waiting for an apology.
The reason Jokic grifts now and flops is because he doesn't get fouls on 90% of contacts. He started in last year's playoff. If Jokic was EVER getting the whistle that, for example Embeed has, he would score 50 every night because they can't guard him without fouling. There are like 10 players in the whole league that can guard him and not necessarily stop him. But nOOO the narrative is "he is using hooks and lobs, he is not driving through contact like Embeed" which is bullshit. He get pushed and slapped every time he do those but hey, no harm done since its the smaller guy that pushed or slapped him. Dude has fking scars like he fought a bear.
This is as bad as win as you can get. Barely beat a team that is clearly tanking. Your best player plays one of his worst games of the year it happens to everyone. Im not going to get upset with Jokic when he starts to treat everyone else in the league like the treat him. SGA got 14 FT attempts in the game against us Jokic is being attacked constantly which I don’t mind as long as he is allowed to do the same
It's a good win. Missing AG, Watson, Cam, Jones, 2nd night of b2b, road game. I'm fine with it.
Needed the refs in order to beat a depleted, tanking Jazz team 😂😂
WHAT ABOUT JOKER LITERALLY LAYING ON KEONTE GEORGE'S BACK WHEN JEONTE JUST GOT BACK FROM INJURY?
JOKIC IS DIRTY AND A FLOPPER.
What do you mean this is a BAD win???? You dont have 4 forwards!!!!! Thats CRAZY. What team wins when you dont have 3 of your best players and they're also some of your biggest 😳🤦🏿♂️🤦🏿♂️🤦🏿♂️
Ryan: Can I vent?
Matt: I guess..?
Matt is a douche
20 games left, adelman is still compiling data.
