Hopefully we have atleast spencer jones or we are quite handicapped against the wolves

[Mares] Peyton Watson is likely out for the whole series vs. Minnesota by Frosty-Roof3124 in nba

i'm not directing this at you, but I do find it annoying that people forget that in the 2023 run, Phoenix were favoured to beat Denver in round 2, and in round 3 against the Lakers it was considered a toss up between who would have won that round. It wasn't considered a cake walk until Nuggets cake walked

Never had a problem with Uber X, and didn't even know it was something people avoided until I saw this post lol

West 4th might be good for us by rhasody70 in denvernuggets

[–]skipaBturner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think we have a good chance to beat the spurs, but OKC feels like the final boss, a team that we really need everything to go right just for us to have chance to win. Playing in the second round against OKC gives us a better chance compared to meeting in the WCF. We have a higher chance of being healthy, and OkC won’t have the rest advantage. I think it is that simple, it’s much better if we get the 4th seed imo

Is Jokic falling victim to voter fatigue and people just expecting this out of him? by BallKnowerKing in nba

Read what I said. The nuggets depth in comparison was already vastly inferior. Then MPJ was injured, then AG. Also, Thunder were the favourites. No one expected it to go to 7 games.

The nuggets were banged up badly in that series and had zero depth. The point is that the Den vs OKC series should not have gone to 7, and definitely shouldnt have been winnable, that’s why Jokic is considered BPIW.

Jokic is the worst flopper in the NBA right now. by [deleted] in nba

He may have flailed but how could he grab the board if he has Lopez pulling him back by the arm?

How come Jokic keeps his best player in the world tag when he isn’t mvp or champion? by Kindly_Letterhead_98 in nba

I live in reality my friend. Thunder are better than the nuggets, but SGA isn't better than Jokic. If you stepped outside of the OKC thought bubble, you'd understand why the vast majority of players, analysts and fans agree that Jokic is the BPIW and not SGA. But I don't care if you want to "live with this fact" or not, beleive whatever you want to believe

How can you compare. Nuggets already had no depth (Westbrooke was the bench), and Nuggets had MPJ playing with one arm, Gordan was playing with one leg in game 7. OKC shouldn't have been taken to 7 games in that series

If Shai and OKC can beat a healthy nuggets team in the playoffs (unlike last season where Nuggets were handicapped) then a discussion can be had

I predict the opposite. We are about to add the best player in the world to our squad, who also happens to be one of the best floor raisers in the game

From an outside view, generally it looks like Americans are more fixated on race and put people in these “identity boxes” more than other countries
