His accolades prove that it isn’t a fluke.

Don’t win MVP 3 times and then have arguably your best season after that if it were.

Dude won a ring with Denver. He is an all time great. Agree with Jwill for the most part.

But let’s punk the brakes on Kareem.

Top 10 all time though?

Yeah. I buy that all day.

During the Nuggets game last night announcers said Joker's the fastest to 16,000 pts, 8,000 rebs and 5,000 asts. And how the hell is he 2nd in steals this season? That's just crazy. His numbers are video game like this season.

The only league where the old heads are constantly hating.
There's a bit of (understandable) jealousy of the new players from the older ones, the old guys played before the massive explosion of salaries. Guys like MJ got really rich but not really the other stars of that era. Today a guy like Jimmy Butler or Devin Booker will make more in one year than guys like Barkley made their entire career.

You know it could just be the Wolves are a bad matchup for the Nuggets as they have beat them 6 straight.
Unless you have a great coach lined up, firing Malone would be a mistake.
But, hey, I hear Monty Williams is available.
Last I checked there's a guy in Memphis that's now available... Not to mention the guy I've brought up over and over again that's on our bench who's received HC interest. His name of course is David Adelman.

Pistons in the OKC tonight. Had planned on going but fighting a stomach bug I brought home from my trip.

cane has lost his mind about the Nuggets.

Tried telling him this before but he doesn't.

You're spot-on saying Malone shouldn't be fired. He's the best HC the franchise has had.

The issues with the roster should be blamed on the GM. But obviously someone doesn't get that. His comments about the Nuggets are why I've always questioned if he's really a fan.

He is a fan.

There is just a lot that he doesn’t understand.

They made the same mistakes the Lakers made after their championship. Let defenders leave.

It had everything to do with the topic that I was discussing with tlance as I was providing a cause-and-effect argument for the necessity for referees to reign in this exponential growth in traveling on all levels. We came to the conclusion that the NBA does not want that to happen.

And it’s been a negative impact on….everyone

One they legally couldn’t keep

Can’t blame them for that

they avoided the second apron and never replaced kcp

The bigger issues were extending Nnaji rather than trade him as salary floatsam and using their mle on a c who can’t play
