@CitySushi @msgkings322

Was the offer for Lauri Mark really Moody, Wiggins, 2 firsts, a pick swap and a couple of 2nd rounders?

After what the Knicks paid for Bridges?

Where do you see them going from here?

Kuz?

Jamal Murray with us.

True true. At the same time, PG is a dope if he signs with the same franchise that did Blake Griffin dirty when he knows there’s a strong change there’ll be blowing that shit up. Then he’s stuck in God knows where when he is trying to win a ring.

Agree

There you go again, thinking Murray was the anchor that led to the championship when it clearly has always been Jokic.

I don’t know why you refuse to admit that Murray is actually a damn good player when he has Jokic there to bring him up a level and without him he’s just ok.

It’s because the only two times the Nuggets made noise in the playoffs is because Murray was around and playing well. When Murray isn’t around or he’s not playing well the Nuggets fade and do fuck all exiting the 2nd round like the Sixers every year. Murray closes games for Jokic. Pass first players don’t close.

Its Shai and meh

SGA and a bunch of role players when you look at it. Murray was supposed to be the clear 2nd option on paper but that somehow ended up being RJ and Brooks

How did Canada lose

After watching the game I've come to the conclusion that Canada lost because the other team scored more points. That might be a controversial take on things.

The Nuggets faded last year because Malone ran the starters into the ground at the end of the regular season and they were gassed, KCP pretty much admitted that and Malone has acknowledged that he over did it. But let me guess, your conspiracy theory tinfoil hat brain is going to say they’re all just covering for Jokic

The Nuggets of '24 weren't the Nuggets of '23. That didn't help things.

The biggest issue was Malone doesn't like to play young guys that aren't proven in his eyes so instead of giving his starters a break he would play 4 starters with a young guy in the lineup here and there causing everyone to be dead by the time the playoffs started.

Not enough points, unfortunately I didn’t get to see it so that’s all I got.

All you’ve done here is explain why Murray was less than. He was still less than in the end and that’s why the Nuggets failed.

They also didn’t get a chance to see an 8 seed, a 5 seed, a 7 seed, and an 8 seed this year on the way to a championship.

Championships are forever but that championship is a Paper Tiger championship.

I see Rudy got benched lol

MPJ sucking in round 2 was a bigger issue than Murray sucking.

Back to back years with a paper tiger champion

@Mecca of the “B” Team looks like the USA women get Brazil in the finals. Should be very good.

The Nuggets beat who was in front of them, not their fault the higher seeded teams choked. No paper tiger championship there. They dominated what was put in front of them without the excuse of “oh well our best player was hurt so it doesn't count” like the Celtics this year.

The lower rated seeds last year were better than the higher ones, the evidence proved as much.

You see many more Nuggets games than I do. Thanks Kronkey'$. Yeah I spelled it wrong, don't care. Didn't realize that about Malone.
