A lot of these 3s are so off on both sides.

Has to. Need more agression. Maybe he's saving it

At this point, Jokic might need to take 40 shots for Denver to even have a slight chance.

If Denver makes it through, I don't know if they have enough stamina against and healthy bodies to give the Twolves a fight

From a fans point of view the Better matchup would definitely be OKC vs Minny

i know Caruso is great but that's a 10 second post up from Jokic from the FT line or up, they should be sending the double earlier than that.

Jokic needs to get deeper catches if they're going to have Caruso guarding him. Stop getting him the ball at the top of the key.

Man stop this crap!

Every time the Nuggets lose it's his teammates fault.

You weren't saying this when they had a double digit lead just a few minutes ago. :lol:


That 8-0 run is brought to you by Jokic haters like you. LOL.

(Jokic is great, but if you only look at scoring you won't see his real value on the court)

Jokic is the best player in the world.

His fanboys are the people I have a problem with.

Jokic needs to keep doing that when Caruso is on him. Bully him down low. Back him down.
