Whiteside is one of my new favorite bench players lol, Jeff Green was such a terrible player for us and Whiteside is in his head

Amend that, it was Jamychal not Jeff, lol

What happened to Rudy Gay?

Heel surgery in offseason, rumor is he may have his first game next week, but I think it is maybe a week more out.

We need monk shooting so he better not .

Monk will have a short leash once Ellington and Nunn return.

Wayne Ellington threatens nobody’s job.

Coming from a knicks fan who had him. Just expect to play 4 on 5 when laying defense he is that bad.

Also major chucker

Malik monk seems like he is the better fit.

Westbrook, LeBron, Davis, Rondo, Howard, Jordan, Melo have PG, PF and C all wrapped up minutes-wise.

Lakers have these 8 guys fighting for minutes at SG/SF: Bazemore, THT, Nunn, Reaves, Monk, Ellington, Bradley, Ariza
Nunn, THT, Bazemore, Ariza would be my thoughts right now.. I think Reaves, Monk, Ellington, Bradley are all going to be fighting

Malone is a lousy coach , its unbelievable that he has no any game plan when Jokic is out of the court , its been like that ever since Jokic cracked Denver's starting line up.

Utah is a pretty good team bud. Denver without Jokic/Murray and with MPJ forgetting how to shoot a ball. IMO Denver played really well with the cards they were dealt.

Jokic is 24/6/6 at half time and the nuggets are still losing. MPJ is playing like a roleplayer, jerami grant, who I didn't even care we lost, was better. The bench has been dreadful, not just lacking talent but a bad lineup too. I don't see how just calling up a team of g-leaguers could be worse.

I was at the game. Nuggets really depend on Jokic to run the show and make all the reads. Without him on the floor, the Nuggets basically play iso-ball. Gordon, Barton and Morris all took turns getting hot, but in the end it was too hard for them to manufacture offense. They started hack-a-Rudy to try to slow the game down.

MPJ hasn't been shooting well all season so far. Mitchell also missed a ton of shots for the Jazz.

That said, Murray, Barton, MPJ, Gordon and Jokic have enough talent to win the chip if they can play enough defense. The Nuggets miss Jerami Grant's rim protection though. Right now, they don't have any.

Will Bol Bol ever crack the rotation?

Jazz need Rudy Gay. They're not getting enough from Royce O'Neale, imo, and they may as well add some size and rebounding.

[Catchall]

Jokic literally owns Rudy. I can't remember the last time a 3x Dpoy got consistently annihilated by a matchup

Jokic has too many tools and too much subtlety to his game now. He spins through all his options until he gets Rudy chasing. Rudy might be better off not trying to react to everything Jokic does.

Bol Bol for all his "potential" is an awful defender. Don't let the occasional block fool you.

The player they should be finding minutes for is Bones Hyland. Especially since I don't think Campazoo is very good, and he's small as heck.

Collapse happens every time Jokic is on the bench, they are way too much dependent on Jokic , they should have some game plan when he's out of the game and its been like that forever.

[JimmyPlopper]

Id like to see a team with Chris Paul, LaMelo Ball, Lonzo Ball, Bol Bol, and BBall Paul Reed just to see the announcers trip up

[Mickey8]

Boy, does Embiid look average without Simmons on the court , I know its early but it doesn't look promising , and nobody in the media is criticizing him for the poor play , Jokic didn't get any slack while Murray was and is out with the injury.
