This MPJ tribute was long overdue. In 2024, alongside Jokić, MPJ was the most reliable nugget (Dragica will get a heart attack). When you add AG and KCP to the formula Nuggets starting 5 are 3 levels above any other starting 5 in the league and next series Vs T-wolves will prove that. What nuggets are missing is the 6th man (no pun intended), ideal candidate in my opinion is another MPJ like sniper - Serbian Bogdan Bogdanović. I also think that P Watson deserves more playoff minutes.

MPJ being the constant threat from 3 was big this series. The entire Nuggets team couldn't shoot to save their lives other than him.

It makes me happy to see MPJ finally doing well. I remember all the hype around him early and how everyone forgot about him once he got injured

Denver plays as a TEAM. Sure, Jokic and Murray's two man game is the main stay, but the other guys just don't sit and watch. Gordan is always looking to cut to the basket, and if he doesn't get the ball on those cuts, he's heads-up enough to know when to clear and when to look to rebound. He had a huge offensive rebound late in game 5, leading to a Murray three. MPJ is always looking to spot up when Jokic and Murray draw the defense's attention and no longer just for threes. He's finding the open spot wherever and taking advantage. Caldwell-Pope can also knock down the open looks created by Jokic/Murray. They play excellently as a unit.

@KMGaming047

Bro, you got to realise by now Jokic also has a very strong two man game with Gordon. From the perimeter to paint it is with Murray and inside the paint, it's wth Gordon. And Gordon has started throwing up dimes to Nikola as well.

My dude, this was vid was so spot on with MPJ. On top of his silky smooth shooting he has been dealing with some really rough family biz, and that aint easy on a dudes mind. Let's go Nuggs! "WE WANT MORE!"

I think it's also important to remember he is only 25 and with all of his back issues, he hasn't had as much time earlier in his career to get comfortable and considering he played 81 games this year, it's safe to say he is finally FULLY healthy so the part you mentioned about him not having much of a handle, I think in the next couple of years you could see him develop one. I genuinely think his ceiling could be a legit number 2, which would give Denver a 1 and 2a/2b kind of team, especially come play off time.

You hit the nail right on the head. In addition, early in his time with the Nuggets, MPJ appeared hesitant to shoot when contested (I go back to the 7-game Portland series when he was guarded by the smaller Norman Powell). Now MPJ attacks those contests--and hits big shots.

Michael “possession ends here” Porter Jr. And this is fine because he hits most of his shots. Once Murray finds his playoff form, Denver is gonna be unstoppable again. Also, Jokic still operates at the second gear despite all of his nonsense stats.

Here in Denver we’ve known his potential for years. So fun seeing his big improvement this year. Becoming a complete player including defense. But his size and high release on his jump shot is unreal. He’s unblockable.

Jokic, Murray, Gordon and Porter are a four headed monster.

This is what happens when you play with a "Larry Bird" type player like Nikola Jokic... I see lots of comps there He turns someone that could have easily just been good or solid... into someone that's great. MPJs career could have easily gone in the other direction... but he found a nice spot and he's playing lights out. He still has room to grow and i'm super stoked for him to be playing on a championship level squad! Great video

Shit everyone on Denver, save kcp, their career coulda went south without Jokic. Especially AG.

Watching MPJ play in the bubble , versus watching him now is night and day, he has improved every aspect of his game, he used to be a bad defender and wasn’t that effective off ball, but he totally upped his game and improved im all the weak areas , great all around player and elite scorer ,

MPJ and Gordon are another great duo

I've been saying this for a long time. It has been a big three. He is a huge part of why they are the winning team they are

I said this a quantillion times and i will say it again. Jokic Murray and Mpj are the UNSTOPPABLE trio

Jokic is the most patient father I have ever seen. If I had to raise a brat like LeBron, I'd be in jail from the amount of times I'd whup that boy for acting a fool

a lot of people say or the media that when denver lost brown and green from the bench it will hurt them this year but the difference this season is an improved porter jr, defensive kcp and watson.

However, Porter was very consistent offensively and the Nuggets needed every point they got to beat the Lakers.

So glad the Nuggets chose the right Porter bro, and I'm sure his dad is relieved that he chose right son to have the 'Jr'.

Teams that are built up over many drafts are generally better than teams that are traded for within a couple seasons imo

4:13 That shot is unbelievably impressive. Driving in and taking the shot with his hips facing the crowd, not the rim, is just beautiful. Silky smooth

I was just talking about this with a friend a few days ago. MPJ is healthy, confidence back and has also matured and understands the game much better than he used to which is also helping him make great decisions when he gets the ball and has elevated his defense and rebounding. He's like Boston/Miami Ray Allen, except younger and taller. Dude is so efficient with how he impacts the game and with defenses already extending themselves to the max trying to deal with everything Jokic brings to the table plus containing Murray (who you NEVER want to let get hot), what do you have left to throw at MPJ who's become an almost certain bucket. It's deflating for even the best defenses.

I remember last year being upset at MPJ during the NBA Finals, but this man has suddenly become one of my favorites, he doubles down on the whole “Michael never swing the rock Porter Jr” and PROVES it wins games, love the guy 💛💙

I'm a huge fan of the Nuggets from their huge accomplishments from last year. One thing I want people to realize was that they had trouble getting their peak performance this time around with the Lakers, and I don't think the Lakers bothered them, I did not see the magical plays that I was accustom to seeing from. Every game was close, but that's because Nuggets keeps starting the game already behind the Lakers in scoring, and they have an up hill battle. They made the bar so high last year, I mean they beat everyone LITERALLY EASILY, they were way above all the team, they were on a separate level on their own, like god level good, and made every look like G-League, and they were breaking all sorts of historical records, and made everything look easy. I know it's only the first round, and I hope they are just start, and go to a different gear because the landscape is different this year. Dallas and Clippers finally got their acts together; Timberwolves are no slouch, Celts only got way better, Sixers are a dark horse as you can see with their bout against the Knicks, and Thunder are Western dark horse. All I'm saying, as fans lets not think this is automatic, and reality is Nuggets seem a step slower this year. Off course, I'm rooting for this team, just holding my breath for what's out there. If they keep on starting slow in every game, they may go against a younger team who can keep up the fight, ala Wolves or Thunder. I still believe this team will win with their experience and warrior mentality.

4:07 Jamal Murray lmao 😂

love me some mpj, it has been wonderful to see him grow as a player these last few years. Minnesota series is going to be wild

Porter is a better scorer, rebounder and rebounder than last year. He has immense potential and continues to improve after overcoming many injuries.

Jokic has the perfect complimentary players around him, MPJ was supposed to be the #1 pick the year he was drafted but his back injury caused him to slip. Murray is the perfect PG for their system and Jokic.

If MPJ continues this trajectory, the Nuggets is a certified dynasty!!

Porter maybe only has barely been mentioned in mainstream media, but we def talking about how huge and great he's playing here in Denver! He had a rough playoffs and NBA finals last year so its great to see him play awesome and make up for the loss of Bruce Brown. Also great to see him play well through the tough time with his family.

People have been giving Jamal wayyyyy too much credit. Yes, he did hit the big shots in the 4th but the reason why Nuggets had to play from behind was because Jamal was throwing up so many bricks and caused them to fall behind. Jamal didn't have a single efficient game in the series. And in the final game, he took 28 shots to score 32 points. Without MPJ hitting those ridiculous shots, AG pulling those key rebounds and Jokic being Jokic, Nuggets would have been swept. Jamal is the reason the games were so close. Nuggets are on upset alert if Jamal repeats his performance from the 1st round.

MPJs jump shot technique is superb. When he jumps, his natural momentum carries his legs forward in front of him. Defenders will foul him if they try hard. MPJs shooting coach during the off season is the same dude who trained Steph Curry. Look it up.

Family Problems MPJ may be my favorite MPJ build right now.

I have been screaming this for 3 games. MPJ flew under the radar with Murray's heroics, but he balled all series. Super-efficient too. They'll need it against Minnesota.

I love watching those plays in slomo and watching LBJ completely fuck up the defence and leave his player wide open for the cut. He's a hopeless defender.

bro i love that you made a video about MPJ, watching the games, sure murray hit big shots and jokic is jokic, AG had some game saving plays too, but MPJ shot SO consistently/efficiently and hit timely shots that i feel like he kind of got swept under the rug

MPJ is such a devoted sniper! When he has to dunk, he does it like an awkward chore: "Ok, I'll put the ball right into the basket with my own two hands, point blank...what's a sport in this even?"

I think he was always working on recovering from injury and now he can finally start expanding his game and skills

If the Nuggets keep up this level of basketball they might nit only three-peat…they might just get five rings in a row! Just incredible!

6man, I've been watching your videos for awhile now. You certainly know your stuff, and I enjoy your content. I'm a 50+ year Nuggets fan and a Denver native. It's nice to see you be so objective and honest in evaluating what has become a great team. It's true. MPJs development has now reached the point where he is truly a deadly alternative to the 2 man game of Jokic and Murray. You could almost call it a four man game, with MPJ now attacking off the dribble as well as sharpshooting from the 3 point line. Add in Gordon stalking the baseline for put backs and lobs, and you have a devastating combination. Doubling Jokic or Murray means playing with a blowtorch. Then there's the other side of the Nuggets: the defensive end. Just watch their rotations and coverage, particularly at crunch time in the 4th quarter. Each player knows where and when to be. The unsung hero here is KCP, or Kentavious Caldwell-Pope. He's a lockdown defender with quick feet and long arms, and he'll toss in a three or big drive to the basket for good measure. Minnesota has justifiably been praised for their quality defense, both during the regular season and the playoff sweep of Phoenix. However, the Nuggets present a difficult task a quantum leap higher than the Suns. It's going to be a hell of a series.

MPJ is the dangerous player, he is 6'10" playing like a small forward, he is excellent jump shooter, a sharp shooter👍👍

Appreciate it brother, keep killing it. Yeh MPJs a funny ass player sometimes but he's been elite so far.

MPJ's 3 point shooting can be a bit overstated since it's always a spot up 3. Though he has improved quite a lot this season driving to the basket and those midrange shots. Complete 180 from last season's playoffs. He still is a massive liability on defense and rebounding especially when comparing to Braun and Watson. Overall his improvement has been spectacular but no way in hell can you start saying denver has a big 3. MPJ was super clutch in that lakers series though.

AG: warrior Murray: rogue KCP: cleric MPJ: sniper Jokic: raid boss

For the past 2 years I’ve been telling anyone who will listen about MPJs improvement. I’ve been saying since his rookie season, if he works on his handle and starts being willing to take contact at the rim rather than avoid it. He used to try to go around people now he’s using his 6’ 10” frame and dunking on them.

IMO MPJ & AG are the xfactors for the nuggets

His form is awesome too. He gets so much height on his shot and he always jumps backwards a little which creates distance

Great video!! Great insight!!

I knew MPJ's fade was always the secret to their success

Great video! It was a joy to watch the Nuggets beat the Lakers. I hope they end up against the Celtics. Two completely different teams!

Technically Nuggets has 1 All-Star but I’m telling you the team has 4 All-Stars, three of them haven’t been recognized. But they don’t care, all they care is about winning. Even Jokic don’t care about being an All-Star. That’s what I love about this team. It’s a “team”.

Actually, not only we can consider they got a Big "3" ... other teams can consider they got a Big 4"" with Gordon always looming on the baseline. 😁😁👌👌
