Joakim Noah was much better FA option for Lakers to replace Cousins IMO.

It's kind of crazy how they were so quick to pick up Michael Beasley, Rajon Rondo, Lance Stephenson, and Javale McGee but Dwight Howard is where they exercise caution

Just watched last night's Spurs game.
Trey Lyles - had 8 points on 3-4 with 11 rebounds. Nice to see him getting a solid chance.

Just finished last night's Jazz game.
Mudiay had a nice year last year - statistically but on a bad team, that can be deceiving. I think he fits better with Utah than he would with most teams. Last night he had a decent enough game with solid effort; 6-11 FG 12 points 5 assists. I hope he does well in Utah (as long he doesn't hurt Denver along the way LOL).

Another wasted season for that franchise. Last 4 seasons they didn't reach 25 wins.

I know GSW isn't at full strength and all, but LAC is flexing its muscle tonight, think we have already identified our biggest competition for the WCF's

I'll wait a few more games - but yeah, without George the Clippers are still impressive.

I think things are going to change pretty dramatically this year in the Western Conference. I think the Warriors are in trouble, without some shooting that entire offense collapses, Green is not good enough on offense and Russell is not a great fit for the offense. I am also not impressed with the Rockets or Lakers so far either. I do think that the Suns, Twolves, and Mavs are going to be considerably better than expected. If Murray, Beasley, and Grant are all as good as they look right now, and Harris/ Barton can step up a little, the Clippers is going to be the team we meet in the finals.

Nuggets are one of just four still unbeaten teams in the league and because of Minnesota playing next game in Philadelphia and Spurs play in LA vs Clippers, after only 4 games I guess there will be only one unbeaten team in the East (Sixers) and only Nuggets on the West (if we beat Dallas tomorrow).

If you look at our next 7 games schedule, we are literally favorites to win each of these games. I don't say we are going to have a perfect 10-0 start, but once again, just like after last season's great 9-1 start, I expecting from Denver to take WC lead early, and instead for playoff spot to compete for TOP3 seed since start of the season.

Only 2 games in the next 7 days, but it is a great opportunity against playoff level Miami and currently the only unbeaten NBA team Philadelphia to show everyone how good we are at home. OT game vs Suns and Dallas loss was a really bad start in Pepsi Center.

In the meantime, Nuggets ring chances improve from #8 and 19:1 to #7 and 17:1, but that is only thanks to Golden State epic fall.

After 5-6 games teams like MIN, SAS, PHO overperformed so far, while Dallas seems like the real deal. GSW unexpectedly will go to the tank process their first season in San Francisco despite great roster, but that stolen 2020 TOP5 pick (or close) will make them even more dangerous since next season with Klay Thompson comeback.

LA1, LA2, DEN, HOU, UTA are locked, with POR and DAL chances to reach PO looks very nice, which means there is only one empty spot for all others after GSW strategically gave-up.

Everyone wants to trade into a new PF. Suns, blazers, Jazz, and correct Nugs fans are wanting to trade for a pf. And it seems all the PF’s are in the EC


Are there teams and fits that these guys could make a huge impact on the playoffs and standings ?

Blake Griffen
Aaron Gordon
Kevin Love



I have thought the whole time that this Nugs teams perfect pf would be Gordon. But after seeing this team on the court I think a lot about the right guy maybe being Blake G.

Blake Griffen would be a monster pairing w Jokic


Blake for millsap, Beasley, hernangomez?

You just can’t help trying to push your crap trade ideas on us every chance you get, can you ?

Just step away from the meth pipe and you may get some rational thought back....brought to you by one of those “incorrect Nuggets fans”

Just finished watching the Bucks at the Clippers - I was very impressed by the Clippers who were playing without Kawhi & George. In fact, I'm more impressed with them now than when I first saw their roster - which was fairly decent at first look.

West is so stacked, and next season will be even worse when GSW is back in full force including stolen high 2020 pick.

Return to Denver Nuggets
