Why is everything about making a move? What if you rely on the team coming together, the youngsters mature, or the outstanding coaching staff? In Denver it is about the team....not the players.
Jokic damb near beat the team people said was better than the dream team and he did it withb1 other legit nba player on team. Porter not being moved either. Nuggets are about culture. Any move they make would be to get a 8th guy off bench for strawthwr insurance Jamal Cb Mpj Ag Jok Russ Pwat That's top 7 for playoff minutes. Strawther probaly only get 10 minutes a game in playoffs if his defense doesn't improve drastically
yeah and teams assume it's just magically going to be better after a trade even though while a new guy has different strengths, he often is missing stuff the guy you're trading has
@ Lebron is one of the best to ever do it. My problem is more with the media. I hate how the media has actively tried to make him the greatest player of all time since the very beginning of his career when he just straight up isn’t. Kobe and Tim Duncan were better players than him and the media has completely swept them under the rug.
@@ArchangelMichael-y1i See what a difference between now and your first provocative statement. Of course Lebron is one of the "best to ever do it"-and the high level he's played at throughout his career, and now even at the end has resulted in records probably never to be broken. Who cares about the media, look how long it took them to grasp Jokic. This whole thing of the greatest player is such nonsense, beyond eras, rule changes, simply positions-it's a team sport. Many are overlooked-there is no GOAT. Personally I found Kobe too much of a one on one player-and many names are left out. Since I go way back how can Wilt be ever ignored-the strongest, most athletic superman giant in basketball history-in any era he would average 25 or more rebounds a game, and 8 blocks.
@labienus9968 lebron a clown. He puts himself on top of goat lists. No one else does that. Lebron also blames others all the time. He a coach killer too but hey we shouldn't talk about him. Gtfoh bronsexual
@ArchangelMichael-y1i lebron is one of the best ever no doubt no lie but he also doesn't have a goat claim at all. Mj and Kareem the top 2 all time. Kareem was bst ever college player and as a frosh. Freshmen couldn't play varsity but Kareem took frosh team and beat ucla final four varsity team. Dude lost like 2 games total and this was when coege hoops was tough
I think the nuggs need to get rid of Zeke more than moving MPJ . While MPJ has never had a higher trade value who is going to shoot threes besides him on a consistent basis
If they can get anything for Zeke that’s going to be a monumental win. Just getting off his contract would be a win so the Nuggets will have a bit more financial flexibility next season. Westbrook will probably deservingly opt out of his second year contract, hopefully he values his fit with Denver and resigns for maybe a bit less than what he might now be able to command.
@@traviskrueger9531 Yes, trade Zeke for a solid 3&D wing or scorer off the bench. Russ will def stay in Denver, he’s not playing for a big contract, he wants a ring.
@@mileage9125 you’re no going to get a solid player for Zeke without giving up something else of value though. Chris Boucher has been talked about and that seems feasible as he’s expiring, isn’t really play much in Toronto and isn’t exactly great, but he would be valuable for Denver at least in the reg season. Problem is Denver has to attach something at least a little enticing for Toronto but they don’t have much since Booth wasted so many second round picks from previous awful transactions.
If Russ and Jokic play close to 100% efficiency, then nuggets don’t lose to anyone in the west. It’s just hard to expect guys to have those kinds of nights for every game of a 7 game series
WHY would the Nuggets make a move with MPJ? HIs numbers are his best so far, his strong vibe with the team, he's playing his best and his health has been solid the last two seasons. Foolish honestly. I really hope Malone realizes he has just as good a team at this point as the Championship team was halfway through that season.

agreed
we’ve been this good this early in the season without AG
Because the team can't play good enough defense to go deep into the playoffs with this lineup.

Jamal
Cb
Mpj
Ag
Jok
Russ
Pwat
That's top 7 for playoff minutes. Strawther probaly only get 10 minutes a game in playoffs if his defense doesn't improve drastically

I’m not even a nuggets fan but Jokić is everything LeBron pretends to be.
I never get why people like you have to put down Lebron-Jokic is Jockic, Lebron is Lebron-isn't that enough for you?

happy to see westbrook happy once more.
When Jamal and AG are completely healthy, along with Russ's valuable contributions ... oh my god. Best in NBA.
To think Denver was very out of contention is disrespectful but says lakers is contenders

@ idk how much Boucher would help the nuggets but that’d be a easy upgrade. Getting another sg/sf would be nice in case Murray goes down again
These people don't understand the nuggets are already last in 3pt attempts, and they want to trade someone top 5 in 3pt shooting this season 😂😂😂
No trades ... all we need is the rest of the season to gel together !
Just lonnie walker alone

Right if both of them play like we know they can ion think nobody can stop em

Yes, crazy to consider trading MJP-but Denver's management knows how to ruin a team
Hell no, us Nuggets fans don't want MPJ moved. He is one of the best shooters in the league who spreads the floor for us.
Moving MPJ is a massive L. There's no good return for that.
they need to move naji saric & cancar for a big that can actually be on the floor before any mpj trade talk
Slow white 😅😅 I'm dead 😂
Parsons hush your mouth you think Westbrook scared of the thunder
Zeke for Tory Craig.... Otherwise the team is beginning to gell let them continue to gell
nuggets are fine with its core all they need to do is lock in and stop playing catch up
Idk why everyone shock about the grizzles
what show is this?
Fanduel on nba tv
Nah, not a contender. Knicks, Celtics and OKC will decide on this season winner
Go ahead and say it. Fast strong black man, lol
