Will Barton is the dumbest player in the league,MVP is letting anarchy running wild on this team. He took two shots in the first half, ridiculous.

Feels like Nuggets should be up way more at half. But the Pelicans have 28 points in the paint so far to the Nuggets 12. Which is not good. The 3s are falling, but you can't rely on that.

Horrible 3rd quarter. Bones needs to stop jacking up 30 foot 3s. Zeke is actually playing well.

One of the worst losses of the season by a mile. I don't care that the Nuggets hit 19 3s, the defense was beyond pathetic.

If AG is going to miss more time, this team is in massive trouble.

Another Jokic's loss when he lets inmates running the asylum , your franchise player can't keep coming to the first halves of the games and taking 2- 5 shots . Denver is horrible team, only Jokic keeps the afloat this season , hanging around play off, but they suck so much , especially when Jokic is moody like he was tonight .

I mean look around the league of injured stars, all their roleplayers players step up. Maxey, Wiggins, everyone on the Clippers, McGee/Biyombo.

The Nuggets - literally none of them.

Very, very disorganized and sloppy game tonight. Huge letdown. Jokic AGAIN gets the super near miss on the Triple Double, too.

It amazes me that Jokic is missing the 2nd best, 3rd best, and now 4th best player on his team and the national media cannot wait to trash him on both NBA radio and ESPN. We have G leaguers and rookies playing meaningful minutes no game is a easy win. Jokic has to be perfect for us to win even against bad teams, and he is perfect often enough that we are still in the playoff. People need to be reasonable.

Get used to the East Coast/Big Market bias. I stopped watching ESPN a long time ago because of that exact reason

I Am used to the bias, although I am traveling so that is the only sources I have on the road. This was different than the bias, I even heard Antonio Daniels try to compare Jokic to Twolves Kevin Love, which just proves he was a better basketball player than analyst, and he wasn't very good at basketball.

Interesting to see CJ on the Pels, feels like he's getting a new start in The Big Easy.
