He hasn't "earned" it yet, or some junk like that :roll:

Yes, just not majority owner (yet).

Yeah, his group owns over 30%.

They showed A-Rod in the crowd, he can't wait to gut the roster like a fish.

I have a feeling this will end up being a close game in the 4th....and if Wolves are allowed to play more physical defense the Nuggets will be in trouble

Yes. He's just not the majority.

Nuggets didnt talk with refs untill that posession and then KCP talks to ref, murray tries to calm him down and then KCP misses wide open one. Nuggets cant get into that trap again.

KCP really doesn't bring much to the team anymore. He may be the guy they try to upgrade on during the off-season.

Lore and him still own 40% and there’s a good chance they will be able to purchase the remaining 40% for the originally agreed price.

Jokic the weak link on Denver right now. Crazy.

I don't understand it, either. I don't know if he's trying to save energy or if that helps him be ready for rebounds/passes or something, but it drives me crazy when he keeps his arms down on some plays. It's the only thing that frustrates me watching him.

Might as well just drive every time if he's not interested in contesting shots.

He just blocked a shot. So he is contesting more now

The Nuggets are due for a really good KCP game this series. Might be tonight but I don't know, he's not been amazing.

The fans have been flat and the wolves play reflects that. Hopefully this mini run gets them going.

Last year's run was a 2 man show. But people forgot that. Murry and Jokic were truly magical. Murray has to play like this the rest of the playoffs. Othrewise they don't have a chance.

I mean, they were and are obviously the main two, but I wouldn't undersell the contributions of Gordon/MPJ/KCP/Brown last year - they all played their roles very well in the playoffs.

Give me a break with some of these calls.
