He is looking pretty smooth. If(I know a big if) he is healthy watch out for the NUGGETS this season

From this video I have extrapolated his exact effectiveness on the court next season.

But I've decided not to tell the rest of you because none of you have voted for leprechauns to have voting rights and that injustice deserves an equal denial in return.

What's the difference between a Buffalo?

Easy - an orange, because bicycles don't have sleeves

MPJ is a great talent, but he had three back surgeries. There is hope though. Pippen had two or three of the same type of surgeries, the first one right after his rookie season, back in 1989, and that was more than 30 years ago. And he had a very durable prime from 24 until 31, so basically his entire prime/peak. Hopefully MPJ can follow that.

Don't eat the brown acid.

Also, MPJ looked fine but I'm not sure that a 17 second low-intensity workout video really means anything.

Chances are more that we can hear some news tomorrow that he is done for the season.

I bet Steve Nash could do the same workout today and look nice on film. The thing with back injuries is that they do not flare up until there is sufficient impact and trauma that happens within a minute of NBA basketball.

he's being paid as if he is the epitome of good health & endurance on the basketball court, so far after signing that deal he has yet to hold up his end of the bargain. Denver is a much better team & contender with him on the court
but after seeing denvers luck with injuries its a dont hold your breath approach. The only reason he slipped in the draft was injury issues, the sooner he can put a healthy season in his stat sheet the better for his career, we know he can put the ball in the basket.
I just want to know who's gonna come back to the court sooner Kendrick Nunn or Jamal Murray

So hun scoring on a middle aged white guy is supposed to be impressive?

He can score on pretty much anyone, that was never an issue. He seems ok now, just the big question ofc is if he can last throughout the season.

If MPJ and Murray are healthy next season I actually think they are the best team in the league. I still have major concerns about MPJ though because nerve damage is always tricky. That video doesn’t show me much of anything other than he’s back in the gym

Considering his injury issues, he is still the worst contract in the league for me. If they just waited with their extension, they could've saved so much money, which would definitely help keeping the core together in the future.

Contract aside, if him and Murray are at 90% of their pre injury form, the Nuggets are my dark horse for the finals.

Wow he really looked great torching that trainer. Totally representative of next season

slow-mo spin move, a pushoff dunk, and an uncontested three?
Taking him #1 in fantasy draft.

Really don't understand comments like this. We have seen MPJ perform in the league, this is a workout.

This video proves less than nothing about his health or how he will perform next season. I could make a workout video like this

His jumper still doesn’t look wet to me. It’s nice but not silky smooth. He’s more of a mini Grant Hill to me.

Nuggets needs to minute restrict him.

The thing is, there were barely any news about him for months, literally nothing, so this is at least something.
