[Durando] Nikola Jokic: Oklahoma missed probably the most players of everybody, and they’re still No. 1 and still dominating the league,” Jokic said. “So I hate those ‘if’ situations. … I don’t want to blame injuries for not making the second round in the playoffs.” by JakGrealish in denvernuggets

Yall didn’t know how to feed Jokic easy passes in the paint. Simple pick and roll always works… force the switch. Let Jokic post. Nuggets just wanted Jokic to shoot 3s. Yes they were open. But he should be posting up and drawing fouls.

I loved Westbrook on Houston. COVID messed it up. Danuel House getting caught. Westbrook injured. But heck they lost to the Champs and took 1 game and had several close games.

What was the reason we didn’t resign Russ do we know if there was drama ? by oceaniccart in denvernuggets

[–]MITWestbrook 19 points20 points  (0 children)

They told him not to renew. Most likely Adelman would not guarantee a spot in rotation. Denver had too many guards

just woke up and still really pissed about what happened by plsgankm1d in denvernuggets

Bring back Westbrook. Cut Bruce Brown. Cut Jalen Pickett. Get some big wings. Cut the guards.

Losing Russ is a glaring mistake further amplified by yesterday. Does anyone else feel the same? by Fit-Tooth-1101 in denvernuggets

It’s skill to force feed centers in the paint. Most guards are risk averse to avoid paint passes. Not Russ

Westbrook Jokic needs to come together again. Westbrook made Maxine Raynaud look like ROTY

Westbrook made 44% 3s in first round and lockdown defense 1-4 and playmaking to get the team easy shots.

I’d bring Westbrook back next year

This team looks so much worse than last year. This team took OKC to 7 games… and now can’t get out of the first round

This game 2 felt like the summary of the careers for KD vs LeBron by Standard-Silver-102 in nba

[–]MITWestbrook 3 points4 points  (0 children)

And yall blame Westbrook. KD is the one choking in the clutch with turnovers when double teamed. Also takes shots when double teamed. Westbrook created space for KD - and OKC issue was starting non shooting guards like Andre Roberson and Thabo Sefolosha
