    Jokic should watch a suns game one of these days if he really wants to see a shit defense

    I feel like lackadaisical regular-season defense is pretty common for a returning champ, especially one for whom the whole postseason run seemed to easy.

    Saw this coming from a mile away. They lost Bruce Brown & now Reggie Jackson has replaced his mins. I love Reggie but having seen him in LA he’s one of the worst defenders in the league.

    Jokic cannot win without being surrounded by defenders.

    The regular season has ups and downs, especially in a stacked conference. We’re in November, it’s not worth over reacting to

    Fortunate for him they’re playing one of the worst shooting teams in the league tonight. Can’t wait for that Wiseman-Joker matchup once Bags gets in foul trouble!

    It’s almost like Murray is the reason the Nuggets win. Without him, first round exit. With him: conference finals in the bubble and a championship last year.

    Lavine isn’t gonna fix any of the nuggets issues. Or if he brings some additional scoring you lose your developing bench depth. I think nba teams have been way overvaluing having multiple stars on one team and neglecting the roles and depth.

    Now that MPJ’s offense is back, defence and passing are off the plate. Jokic can get us to the playoffs by himself so it’s fine. Regular season losses don’t matter as long as you get to the playoffs

    Who cares. This happened at points last year and we won it all. And we’ll win it all again this year
