The fact that Jokic asked the front office to sign Westbrook speaks to Jokic’s basketball IQ even when he’s off the court. Like a lot of things on the court, he saw it before anyone else.
This is all false him asking. Booth was interested in Russ and asked Jokic and Jamal about signing him and both gave their approval. Jokic not lebrob and making demands of front office. He just said yes he would be cool with playing with him and media has hijacked along with casuals to jokic was demanding it to FO and he wasn't because I know people in the FO
Few people realize that Kobe was a huge fan of Joker’s game too! He was an OG Jokić truther and they are lowkey cut from the same cloth in so many ways. Depp students of the game, relentless competitors, adverse to social media and frivolous fame, and proud girl dads. I really think they would have grow to be old friends 🥹
Before the season started, I didn't have SUPER high expectations from Russ. All I wanted was a cool 10-5-5 on close to 45/30/70 splits, with great energy, solid defense, and most importantly, just be better than Reggie Jackson was. He has absolutely slaughtered those expectations to the point I feel bad for low balling him like that. As a starter he's averaging 15-7-6, on 50/34/62 splits (48% from the corners), forcing both the nuggets and whoever we play to increase their pace, which is great considering the nuggets have that mile high conditioning, he's allowed Jokic to show his off ball prowess in a way no one else has been able to before, considering the best passer Jokic has played with pre Russ was Facu Campazzo, he's absolutely clamped up to the point that I think he'd deserve all defense nods if he'd started the whole year, and best of all, he puts pressure on the rim like no one we've had in the Jokic era. With Russ playing like this, Jokic being Jokic, Jamal finally (hopefully) getting out of his normal beginning of the season slump, and AG coming back, I think a lot of people's opinions on the nuggets are going to shift dramatically. Since January 1st, we're the #2 offense, and the #5 defense, and if we weren't so terrible at 1st quarter defense, we'd be probably #3
its crazy cuz i had super high expectations i genuinely though he was gonna eat off of jokic playmaking russ cutting his athleticism i even called both of them having triple doubles but even i with the high expectations didn't see this cuz i never thought hed be in consideration to be part of the starting 5
It’s pretty insane that every Denver fans’ expectations for a former MVP this season were “please just be better than Reggie Jackson” and that wasn’t even considered disrespectful at the time
Appreciate your honesty about Russ but besides the criticism give him his props as well the brother averaged a triple double multiple times in a year. Yes he can work on his jumpers but I see him making those threes this year. I am biased because he is my favorite player and I am his #1 fan JDavis...lol
Honest take and I appreciate it coming from a longtime Russ supporter. Some Lakers are so delusional and went hard on Brodie . OKC fans loved Russ regardless ( he always plays like a roller coaster). If you support him on his ups and downs, he plays even harder !! Subscribe now😊
I love your commentary,,,,, I'll give you a break on the Laker's thing. But they misused Russ, whereas Denver uses him at his best. He's going to help us take the title again. Go Russ,,, Go Nuggets! Glad to see your posts again
What I don’t like is y’all claiming like It’s all because of Jokic. Like he’s able to shoot the ball and pass the ball for Russ. Russ overcame through adversity, Jokic was the person to open the door of opportunity. It was a good move for everybody, can’t take from Russ what he’s accomplished
Agreed! In the video they talk about how Russ leveled up Joker too but it definitely doesn’t get discussed enough. I love Joker but too many “Nuggets” fans want to give him all the credit for everything good and bash everyone else instead of recognizing how much the organization, Coach Malone, and Jok’s teammates have also put him in the position to be an MV3 and championship. Russ is a godsend and i’m SOOOOOOO happy he’s a Nugget now! 😊🙏🏾
To rack up a triple-double in the same game NJ does shows RW's court vision and play-making proficiency and teamwork focus. The only two players to accomplish that twice (so far!), same team and season in NBA history speaks for their complimentary play.
The way you negate some of the ball handling from Russ with the second unit is to stagger either Murray or Jokic with him at all times. That way he can alway have someone else handle bringing the ball up or initiating their own offense.
you right🤝 I think now no one star want to join in Lakers bcoz of LeBron. Lakers is more basketball than business until lebron came. that's only my opinion
why get a player with russ skills then force him not to use them ? then complain when he doesnt play well ! Denver is a team Lakers are Lebrons personal bandwagon thats why everyone else dont like them anymore ... no real man will ever respect a drama queen or his cheerleaders .

Exactly! That's why he is now competing against coaches and not the players. His basketball IQ is astronomical
This is all false him asking. Booth was interested in Russ and asked Jokic and Jamal about signing him and both gave their approval. Jokic not lebrob and making demands of front office. He just said yes he would be cool with playing with him and media has hijacked along with casuals to jokic was demanding it to FO and he wasn't because I know people in the FO
He would also do well if he was a coach or GM.
Russ has been a breathe of fresh air and a massive spark
he's having fun on the court
Stay healthy & they shall compete!
Hope Russ can get a 🏆
Peace & thanks!
Keep up the great work!
I love your point of view and I don't see any bias with what you say. You are a true basketball fan and seer of the game.

In Serbia there is a saying ,, what for someone is a garbage, for someone it is gold''
We have a similar saying, I think. "One man's trash is another's treasure."
An objective Lakers fan!! Great video, keep it up! 👍

"I am always a Lakers fan but I am not a delusional guy!". Great. Here is my "like".
The way the Lakers (and LeBron) treated Russ was soo unfair, that I hope he wins a ring with the Nuggets to rub it in Lakers fans faces.
Liked and subscribed!!
definitely earned a like. great video 👍🏼
Thank you for blessing us with this, Will! You are still our favorite (involuntary) Nuggets fan lol 🥰🙏🏾
as a longtime nuggets fan gotta say good video and you didn't show your bias like other lakers podcasters👍
Lately Murray has been staggering more with the second unit, while Russ plays primarily with Jokic. It’s working well, 4 blowouts in a row
Russell can play this game with Jokic into his 40s, and it will be glorious.
lkie what you said , honest yet precise ..!
Love your opinions as always my friend!

Never thought I’d say the Jokic Westbrook pick being the most brutal in the league
I was skeptical when they signed Westbrook bec it feels like he will make this Team bad but knowing Jokic wanted WB in the Team....It now makes sense
I love your commentary,,,,, I'll give you a break on the Laker's thing. But they misused Russ, whereas Denver uses him at his best. He's going to help us take the title again. Go Russ,,, Go Nuggets! Glad to see your posts again
Out of all the NBA players that don’t have a championship ring, Russ is the only one I wish and hope will get one before he hangs it up.
What I don’t like is y’all claiming like It’s all because of Jokic. Like he’s able to shoot the ball and pass the ball for Russ. Russ overcame through adversity, Jokic was the person to open the door of opportunity. It was a good move for everybody, can’t take from Russ what he’s accomplished

@@jesstiss222agreed!

But the main thing is, Joker wanted him in a team.
Finally, someone who makes Jokic better 😁
i miss ur reaction on anything about nuggets.... since finals 2023... :)
Russ has been able to push the pace and get to the basket. None of the other Nuggets can do that on a regular basis.
It’s sad that Jokic’s greatness is “boring”. For me, he’s the true MVP!
The way you negate some of the ball handling from Russ with the second unit is to stagger either Murray or Jokic with him at all times. That way he can alway have someone else handle bringing the ball up or initiating their own offense.
you right🤝
I think now no one star want to join in Lakers bcoz of LeBron. Lakers is more basketball than business until lebron came. that's only my opinion
How are the Lakers doing now?
I take Braun and Russ in the starting lineup I take AG go to 2nd unit for now. coach m. Malone is good mixing up her players
Pro Basketball Player and i had to google who you are 😂
Remember too, he's on a 1+1 veteran minimum contract
Primary, non primary, starter or off the bench, pressure is constant
Russ Is Proving Why He’s The Goat Every Single Day 🐐
I'm not sure about the goat, but if him and Jokic were both 29 it would be fucked up for the rest of the league
@ He’s My Goat. But Yea At 29 Would Be Insane 😂
Russ is one of few remaining great entry passers. They’re going extinct, it just so happens DJ and eons moreso Nikola benefit GREATLY from that.
Braun gets so many easy buckets because of Russ he needs to stay in the starting lineup. AG can come off the bench.
Basically f lebron and utah
The MPJ disrespect. We trade Murray for Levine next year and resign Russ
why get a player with russ skills then force him not to use them ? then complain when he doesnt play well ! Denver is a team Lakers are Lebrons personal bandwagon thats why everyone else dont like them anymore ... no real man will ever respect a drama queen or his cheerleaders .
