    Denver Nuggets is more powerful than before because they have three playmakers-Jokic, Murray and Westbrook. It is not simple to become a playmaker because it takes a lot of time to learn, study and read various plays and players.

  • @anteculic468
    @anteculic468 หลายเดือนก่อน +30

    No wonder Joker insisted in bringing Russ to Denver. He knew exactly what profile he needed - speed, passing, energy, game reading. Unfortunately, that will not be enough to struggle for the ring. They lack two reliable three-pointers at the bench. Remember-KCP. uncle Green, B.Brown. In addition, both MPJ and Jamal are not the same.

    one is showered with mpvs another gets nicknames like westbrick
    one is slam dunking machine other one cant jump
    but they both walking triple doubles and they both have loyal fanbase
    whoever in denver came up with getting russ wasnt rly gambling - the duo could be rly great
    and if not russ'es value dropped so much after LAL it was low risk high reward type of thing

    With so many Prima Donna sports figures these days, it's wonderful to see guys who strap on a belt, tighten it up and just go to work. Jokic is a psychic. He can read people.....and make the willing players better. Russell was a bit of a hot dog early in his years. But his recent travels seems to have tightened him up and made him a true "Team Player". I'm sure Jokic carries a lot on and off the court. Russell wants to continue his career. And he's found the right guy to work with!!!!! Go Nuggets Go!!!!!

    Joker did what LBJ couldn't, made Brodie looking like a effective NBA player, and Brodie did what nobody on Nuggets could do, get the
    f. king ball to Joker. I wouldn't say that Nuggets are contenders (Calvin Boot, OKC, Celtics...), but they're sure fun to watch,and maybe, just maybe, if the young studs take a leap and Murray and MPJ be the best version of them selfs then sky is the limit for the Nuggets. They are trade or two away from being true contenders, but with limited resources and limited GM I doubt it would happen. Let's hope I'm wrong.

    • @Hoops_Central_23
