Jokic, Murray, and Mudiay in rising stars challenge for world team 

Post#1 » by The Rebel » Thu Jan 26, 2017 12:36 am

is it wrong that I hope the coaches put those 3 on the court together just so we can see how well they play together, because we know Malone has done everything he could to avoid it?

Solid WORLD roster, I think they look a little better IMO. Would like to see Jokic on the All-Star team, maybe next year.

If Malone have played him at five from the beginning of the season, Jokic would probably been all star this season :)

Malone started him 55 games last year and it still took him 14 games to figure out that Jokic needed to start this year.

Embiid & Jokic playing side-by-side? Hmm, maybe

I'm usually a "U-S-A" guy, but I will totally be rooting on the World team with our Nuggets. Go Jokic, Murray, and Mudiay!

Mudiay put up 30/10 last year. This seems like a game MADE for Murray. I can see him going off for 30+

I'm guessing Jokic nor Mudiay play since he's having back issues.
