Even Jokic is being inefficient for his standards (1-5 from 3) but everyone else is putting an absolute horror show. Absolute brickfest.

        It aint really the coaches fault. You cant exactly perform miracles and get your guys to play well.

          Perform what miracles you’re seriously gonna tell me that the Houston roster is that much more talented than Denver’s? Nobody is asking him to perform miracles just have a bad lineup with Jokic off, but that’s impossible for this moron they gotta be worst in the league. Like people seriously talking about Denver lacking creation with Murray out like Houston has prime Nash and Magic on their team.

    Reggie Jackson is a big downgrade in their rotation, he’s been playing well but was bound to play poorly like he did in LA. He had a lot of ups & downs there, once his offense goes he becomes a big negative due to his poor defense. I think he’s a major weak spot in their rotation.

    Its always really hard to explain to people why the Nuggets become so much worse without Jamal compared to other teams without their own 2nd option.

    Sure every team would strugle without their 2nd option, but the Nuggets are especially bad with it. They need more shot creators and some vets.

    Its absurd how badly everyone else is playing. You know something is wrong when by half time half of your points are coming from 1 guy.

    Replace Jokic with any other player in the NBA, legit, ANY other player in the NBA, and they’re a 1st round exit.

    The gap between Jokic and anyone else in the NBA is large enough to the point that no one, regardless of how biased they are, should be arguing someone else is as good as him.

    This is MJ vs the field, and LeBron vs the field territory.

    The longevity and accomplishments aren’t there. But in terms of on court impact alone, during a peak run? The gap between Jokic and the next best player is as big as MJ, Shaq and Lebron’s advantage over the league.

    If the Nuggets can get ONE more upgrade on the caliber of MPJ, and Gordon, they’re going to win 3-4 championships, and Jokic is going to crack a lot of people’s top 7’s.

    Jokic is nearly as good as any player ever.

    He’s breaking basketball. It’s an absolute joke that in today’s age, THIS dog shit of a team can turn into a championship roster.

    I’m gonna say it, his court vision, playmaking and passing abilities are even beyond what we’ve seen from Lebron
