  • The NBA trade deadline came and passed with yet another missed opportunity by the Nugget's idiot GM, Calvin Booth, to upgrade the team around Nikola Jokic. And here we are, yet another wasted year of Jokic's career.

    I don’t even think Jokić needs an All-Star teammate to win. He’s done it already. He just needs everyone to step up and execute perfectly every game, and Denver can win. But of course, an All-Star teammate would be immensely helpful. I heard rumors that Bruce Brown is going to get bought out by NoLa, so maybe the Nuggets could make a pass to swoop him up. He ain’t an All-Star but he does fit Denver’s system perfectly.

      Braun is inconsistent recently and can't make his own shot. Only good for fast breaks.

      AG was good until he got injured this season.
      The only real help he really had was when Murray was deadly from 3 during their title run. The rest are mediocre. You're looking at the points but ignoring the fact that Jokic creates the open looks for them and they're still struggling with efficiency.

    I've been watching the Nuggets every game. Honestly, their team is a lot stronger and they are contenders. They have a great team. MPJ, murray, braun, Gordon, all can have big scoring nights depending on the defence, and russel westbrook is a game changer as well. The bench is also stronger than I thought, with good defence and scoring, although still somewhat inconsistent. I didn't want them to make a trade honestly. They have a championship core already, the young players are developing... they have a bright future.

    Booth reminds me of the Hawks the last few years. Had one good run that ended in a championship at least, but didn't build off of that to keep the team contending. After losing to Minnesota last year, he should have made a few moves. Everyone knew that OKC and Memphis would be back, and Houston has now made a huge jump too

    Skap my brother... you know good and damn well if Kobe was in the shoes of Joker right now, he'd be HEATED and demanding a trade.
    My proof for that? Look what he did in 2007. He publicly demanded a trade. And unlike Joker, Kobe was playing for the team he dreamed of playing for as a child.
    On the flipside, unlike Kobe, Joker is CLEARLY the best player in his franchise's history. You can debate Magic, Kareem and Kobe. There's no debate with Joker.
    If he was the winner that we know MJ and Kobe was, he'd have demanded the Nuggets make a move to make them legit title contenders. He'd currently be on Jimmy Butler type of energy. But he currently isn't.

      This is the right take. Blowing shit up to try to grab Trae Young or some other expensive piece just so Denver can slot in an "all-star" for Joker to play with does multiple things that don't immediately improve your team. Also, missing key players at the beginning of the season had them out of the gates much slower than they otherwise would have been.
      There's an argument for getting a defensive piece and/or trying to add some rotational depth, but Denver is big, has some young talent, guys that can shoot, veteran presence, and not to mention the best player in the world. If they get sent home in 5 against the T-Wolves, fire away, but I don't see that series going Minnesota's way this year.
      You can shit on Booth for a lot of things, but not making a panic decision at this deadline is not one of them.

If people want to roast him for his contract, that's fine, but dude was part of their solution for a chip. If he went 40/8/8 in the playoffs with a FMVP cherry on top, Skap would 100% make a "Glad he finally played up to his contract, here's why Denver should sell high" video.

    The NBA is just a garbage product and has been for a long time. Mid 80s through mid 2000s were excellent times to be basketball fans. This modern garbage with no defense or physicality, flopping, 200+ combined points on a game to game basis/three point contest, EVERYTHING about LeBron James (hands down the single most overrated athlete in American sports history), “load management”, player empowerment/forcing trades to where they want to go, ridiculous contracts, officiating… The NBA absolutely sucks now. Basketball WAS my favorite sport back then. Now I watch a ton of football and hockey, but the NBA makes my stomach turn. Firing Adam Silver is a very necessary first step but the truth is a quick and easy fix doesn’t exist. It took years and years of poor decisions to do all this damage and get us here and it’ll take years and years to fix, if it’s ever fixed at all. I am very pessimistic about the situation and believe the league will NEVER be as good as it once was. Basketball’s best days are behind us.
