Problem is that anyone who comes and plays with Jokic looks way better then they worth. Teams then overpay thinking they will play like that in their teams which never is the case and Denver is left out of market and having to find fringe players and make them stars. We can't be mad but with 3 max contracts we can''t get depth. We were lucky that everything fell into place with everybody plus Bruce Brown. You take one pieace out and it all crashes. We need 2 max + depth or again get lucky with players like BB + KCP not being overpaye and good rookies.

Jokic needs help at his position. You can't ask him to play 40+ minutes every game for five years in a row!

Denver lost Bruce Brown, Jeff Green, KCP. We sign unplayable players Jackson and Nanji. We gave 3 picks to wave Jackson. We do not know what to do with Nanj and his ``big`` contract.. We dont have enough ball handlers in our team. Murray probably will not play 82 games. And he is combo guard not PG. 2023 title run was 80% Conelly credit. Booth had only 2 good moves as GM. Draft CB and trade Barton/Morris. But 30-40 milions for Zeke Nanji? Boot is very very close to threshold. Jokic has 29-30 years. Last year we were 1 bench player close to title. You can not develop 6 (six) young players if you are chasing title. Picket, Tyson, Strawther, Braun, Watson, Holmes. I do not like what Booth doing.

Russell Westbrook is going to be on his best behavior this year. His agent asked around and found nobody was excited to give him a multi-year contract as a free agent so he opted into his $4m 1 year contract to get some guaranteed money. This is a golden opportunity to look good playing next to Jokic (like everybody does) and then next year he can get a multi-year contract as a FA.

Jokic needs to find another team if he wants to win again. This ship is sinking.

Joker should leave this franchise that doesn’t do much to surround him with good pieces to give him the chance to win multiple titles that he is capable of for the next 2-3 years!

I mean if they don't win champ this season or next season, Booth should be fired together with coach. So someone will need to rebuild this team from the ground up.

The CBA is intended to break up dyanstic rosters. You get more fan bases with a chance to win and it allows the NBA not to be reliant on only big market teams. They essentially get more people excited for their team from more places and expand viewership. I think the CBA is also a marketing tool to boost ratings. That's a pretty wild theory, but it comes off like that a little. It bothers me because it feels like the obtuse rules and restrictions are so controlling and micro-managed that it ends up punitively punishing a team for success. Your team wins a championship and the market value of each player rises dramatically. It's especially infuriating that they changed the CBA after we built our roster. Thanks Silver, you must hate the Nuggets. Not that it's personal, but if feels like it right now.. It also does seem like the media is loathe to deal with a Denver dynasty. I'm feeling a little shaken up about next year.

He also hustles like crazy. That's the energy that has been missing ever since we lost Bruce Brown.

I don't think Nuggets lose anything on the defensive side. I even think we may even be better on that side. But on offense I think we are also significantly weaker. Biggest issue for T-Rex Braun is his shooting. Spacing will be an issue in playoffs. AG is already not guarded on the perimeter, having another player that can be ignored by defenses is too much. Also, hopefully Braun defense isn't a mirage, which may be the case for players going from bench and being a surprise defender into starting role player where attackers are more familiar with him.

I would have traded MPJ awhile ago. And it's crazy no one is talking about it. He's not that great.

It's clear Calvin Booth was planning this for a long time, moving Christian Braun into the starting lineup to maintain salary cap flexibility despite the 3 max contracts. It had nothing to do with KCP performance in the playoffs. I think he's pre-positioning himself to let Aaron Gordon walk at the end of 25-26 season when his contract expires and he gets a max extension; and then they move Daron Holmes into the starting lineup. He loves his draft picks and thinks the right idea is to develop and rely on them; even though that is wasting Jokic prime years! Jokic, Murray and MPJ are the 3 key pieces they will keep long-term. I think KCP was more valuable than MPJ, but they couldn't move MPJ's contract anyway.

F*k Jokic, F*k the team - Kroenke's $s are at stake. Thing is - Booth is IN on the deal too... Probably got a "sweetener" from Kroenke's to sit tight, don't rock the boat and keep his dumb mouth shut. Big money is at stake. Malone is under NDA so he (even though he's furious) can't say shi* either. It's kinda funny that a) Nuggets fans didn't figure this out, and b) that Kroenke's think they will be able to pull this off unnoticed. :))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))) It was kinda obvious :))))) Couple of weeks ago: Josh Kroenke: “When Nikola Jokic is on your roster, you're going for it. We have the best player in the world. We have a responsibility to him to try and go for it.” Calvin Booth: "Im the steward of Jokic's prime" :))))))))))))))))))) Two weeks later - Nuggets don't even have a roster :))))))) Not to mention that their best hope left is Russ Westbrook :)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))) (and Russ is not an idiot and he'll tell them to f* off) :))))))))))))))))) But - no tax, no cost, net profit untouched. Kroenkes and Booth :)))))))) LIARS. Dirt cheap, shameless LIARS. One little thing though - I'm not sure Kroenkes are counting on Jokic busting this "deal" wide open. By just DEMANDING THE TRADE. The "valuation" of Jokicless Nuggets will be utter doodoo. I can only imagine the horror :)))))))) I'm so looking forward to see this happening. Kroenkes getting stuck with this pile of poopoo and Jokic doing the "wave and smile" thingy. Dumb, cheap, greedy, dishonest Kroenkes. BTW - Booth is now in Europe - he's NOT in US, even though it's the 11th hour of the FA... He's in EUROPE. Why? He's there to APPEASE Jokic - to give him some BS story in hope that Jokic will not fuck up Kroenke's little scheme. The idea is - appease Jokic, get him to do some public BS with Booth (interview, video, appearance, photo... anything) - like "nuggets GM is supporting Jokic and Serbia in the Olympics, even though it's critical time for the Nuggets"... a "grand gesture" to make sure he doesn't blow this deal up. What a pathetic bunch of cigani. But, Raznatovic is way ahead of these bozos. There won't be any "meets" any "photos" or any any.,.. Jokic will simply IGNORE and AVOID Booth like he would avoid an infected dog. And there will be "Jokic Demands a trade" news coming in the next week or so.

I agree. Losing KCP sucks, but he would have to be replaced eventually. I do admit it's at least 1 year sooner than I would hope but it's bound to happen due to the CBA and having to rely on rookie scale/cheaper contracts. Not to mention, KCP is the oldest and most expendable player out of the starting 5. This is also one of the reasons Booth drafted Christian Braun, to prepare him to take over the starting shooting guard spot when the time comes. Overall, KCP is the 2 way player that Denver needs and as the team looks right now, it got worse. However, CB is taller, stronger, and more athletic than KCP. He's more equipped to guarding bigger guards and forward which is the trajectory of where most teams are heading now. Of course, you still have the Curry, Kyrie, Fox, and Ja Morant of the world who are shifty and too fast for most defenders to guard and stop completely. You can't have best of both worlds. You can only try to take away a part of their game and make them uncomfortable. And I believe CB is a more versatile defender than KCP at doing that. CB is also a better rebounder which helps on both ends of the floor. The only problem with CB is his shooting. It's unproven whether or not he can shoot at a high level consistently. Teams are gonna dare him to shoot and so perhaps the offensive game plan should also change with him being on the floor like maybe he can drive more and just attack the basket. The biggest problem is the bench. With Justin Holiday most likely not coming back, Malone got to start playing the young guys more seriously specifically Watson, Strawther, and Holmes. I really wish that Zeke could have worked out in Denver. He had all the making of a modern big at PF/C but everything changed when the team decided to play him exclusively at backup center position. That screwed over his development on offense along with his confidence. On top of that, the team changed his jumpshot form for no reason when it was working perfectly before. It might be a bit slower, but why mess with it if there was no sign of him struggling to find his shots. Zeke was a near 40% 3 pt shooter before everything went downhill. This is the classic case of "If it ain't broke, don't fix it". Right now, the bench depth will determine how far the team can go in the playoffs. We still need a quality backup PG and center. That's a bigger concern for me than losing KCP.

Ansver is NOT.

Westbrick really?

Too many Denver fans blackpilling right now. Bunch of spoiled drama llamas. You act like we just lost Joker. 😂 KCP was mostly great, yes, but they have guys like CB & Jules who can now step up & show what they have. Jules in particular flashed talent last year for the few games he got, even defensively. This CBA punishes teams like Denver who try to keep a core together. It’s forced socialism. Forced parity. It is what it is. Booth may not be perfect but don’t blame him for what the owners ALL signed off on.

I’ll add that if you signed KCP this year you 💯 lose Aaron Gordon next year. That’s fact. And ask yourself: which player is more important? KCP literally disappeared against Ant in the playoffs & got manhandled by him. CB did much better. Get a grip Denver fans.

Why are the nuggets fanbase such doomers?

Trade MPJ !!!!

Looking back a sign and trade for Caruso might have been the best deal Denver could have done maybe include Orlando in the deal Denver get Caruso Orlando get KCP Bulls get Issac or Suggs

Why does LeBron only get blamed for not picking Jokic in All Star game not the other team captain? I know it’s bc it’s LeBron (Adam has a Wade & Kobe USA jersey so that makes sense he wouldn’t be biggest LeBron fan…along with the fact he’s been on the hated lakers the last 6yrs), but I never hear anyone else mention the other captain who didn’t pick him.😅😆😅. That doesn’t mean LeBron didn’t know Jokic wasn’t one of the best centers/players ever, he’s just not an All Star game player which means absolutely nothing at the end of the day as it’s a meaningless scrimmage with dunks and crazy 3s. LeBron has one of the best IQs for his sport as any athlete in any sport ever. I assure you he knows how ILLmatic God tier Jokic is and has for AT least 5yrs, but especially since 2020-21. Jokic & LeBron both know their IQs are among GOAT in NBA history with Magic Bird MJ Big O Jerry West Nash Luka Duncan Kareem Russell etc etc. Losing KCP hurts, but I like CB in starting lineup and Westbrook at only 4 mill per year off bench in Reggie Jackson mins. What hurts Nuggets was 2023 draft with 3 picks may of had 3/3 misses with Trayce Jackson Davis, GG Jackson, Leonard Miller, Toumani Camara all look to be better. It’s not easy to draft late 1st to mid 2nd, but when guys fall who are projected to be 20-28 are there you then it’s more on you to pass on them and “reach” on guys. It’s still too early to say for sure. 1 or 2 of those guys need to hit as at least role players (include Holmes too who I like better and he was at least projected in the 20-28 range).

The only picks I'm skeptical of Calvin Booth so far have been Pickett and Tyson just because 1) We have never really seen them play last season. 2) Both aren't the quickest guys in terms of lateral movement and ability to guard multiple positions so I feel like they both are still considered "project" players. 3) I feel like Calvin Booth did reached for these 2 players when he didn't have to. And was it really necessary to add 2 more rookies in the 2nd round when in reality 2nd round draft picks rarely work out and they take more time to develop. Hopefully they work but personally I would rather trade them because we still have 3 other young players to develop in Watson, Strawther, and Holmes coming off the bench.

Can we PLEASE stop being such babies about the Nuggets. WE HAVE THE BEST PLAYER ON THE PLANET AND 4 out of the 5 starters we WON A FUCKING CHAMPIONSHIP WITH!!!! And maybe, just MAYBE KCP is NOT the player he WAS.

Maybe just maybe it was a fluke run and Murray isn't that good or consistent. Mpj chokes too much and Gordon doesn't know what to do off ball like Draymond. Not to mention everyone else improved while they kept falling backwards

It's time to fire Booth and hire someone with brain !

Jokić will have to rise his 3p % to the level it was in 2023 and everything will be ok. As long as he is not tired, he will fill the gap for CB shooting.

No, they can not win without KCP and with this bench. This is the third big piece they have lost besides Bruce Brown and Jeff Green. It looks like they are in development mode and not "win now" mode. They suck in trades.

Booth and Malone are no longer valuable, hire a decent GM

Our GM continues to be the reincarnation of Jerry Krause, tearing down a championship roster just to build with his guys only to prove how much of a genius he is🙄 prepare to be known as a fluke champion, which I already felt.

Lmao I can’t wait for the nuggets 1st round exit next season!
