  9. Finally a season where Jokic doesn't need to carry and maybe will be rested a bit for playoffs
    Good job denver office it was about time

  15. I'VE FOUND THE NUGGETS BIGGEST WEAKNESS!!!! THEY DON'T HAVE ME ON THE TEAM. TRUE, AARON GORDAN ONCE DUNKED OVER A MASCOT, BUT ON NBA LIVE '98 I DUNKED OVER TIM DUNCAN AND DAVID ROBINSON FROM THE THREE POINT LINE. SHOW ME ONE NUGGET ON THIS ROSTER THAT CAN DO THAT…. I DIDN'T THINK SO. RIGHT NOW I'M CALLING JOKIC OUT FOR SOME ONE ON ONE IF HE THINKS HE'S GOT GAME ENOUGH. I'M WAITING… STILL WAITING. SEE HE KNEW BETTER AND WISELY DIDN'T COME.
