Dario Saric not even making this list after playing a full season is actually completely sickening.
Can you name the top 10 Jokic back-ups with the most points in the Jokic era? 🤔 (w/ @JoestarJokic & Pablo Escoball)
If I can offer some advice, stop worrying about the Practice facility. This offseason has shown that it has not been a deterrent to signing talent next to Jokic. It is in their plans to build one as part of their large civic undertaking. This Nuggets team is so fun to think…
I'm really excited for Jonas offensively for Denver. His offensive rebounding, screening, post work, and mid range shooting can really help stabilize that Denver bench offense. I'm concerned about his defensive numbers. They have been very bad. But it might not matter.
Denver should not fill their final roster spot until they’ve seen what this team looks like together as currently constructed. Wait till January or the trade deadline.
Jonas Valanciunas spoke with me to clear the air on the Nuggets and Panathinaikos situation: "I want to clear the air about my playing situation next season now that Denver has made their decision to keep me. The idea of playing for Panathinaikos, closer to home, was very…

Can we all agree his press conference at the start of the week was never him saying that he didn’t care or that he doesn’t want success as much as anyone else out there?? Surely it was him saying exactly what that Nike ad says. You can be the most competitive person in the…
Curtis Jones being worthy of a Shams tweet is blowing my mind. I actually really like this kid. There is a universe where he gets some minutes at the 1 this year.
The Denver Nuggets are signing guard Curtis Jones to a two-way NBA contract, agent Austin Walton of NEXT Sports tells ESPN. After going undrafted out of Iowa State, Jones had a stellar summer league for the Nuggets, averaging 15 points, 4.4 rebounds and 3.8 assists on 47% from 3.
Did they win this game?

Marcus Smart is actually a pretty awesome get for the Lakers… I think. Lakers could definitely compete next year.
KCP in Boston would be nasty on a retooled team next year with Tatum back.
BREAKING: The Boston Celtics and Memphis Grizzlies have engaged in trade discussions centered on Anfernee Simons, with a framework that would send Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and draft compensation to Boston, league sources tell me.
Ryan got it straight from the horse's mouth: Denver is NOT hard-capped at the first apron due to some cap maneuvering. This gives Denver the most possible options to maneuver in season, incl. $6.8M remaining on the TPE,

Tired of this disrespect. Times when the Nuggets needed Jamal Murray the most… and he delivered. (🧵)
I dont care ih he fat or not but he was USELESS when the team needed him the most.
Cam Johnson when asked how he can complement Nikola Jokic on the court: "Relocation around the perimeter...finding windows offensively...Maybe his best ability is just understanding where he is in space, and understanding where his teammates are in space at all times"
Who wants to tell him why teams hard double guys like him?!
The consenus? F*** you and the consensus @ZachLowe_NBA . This is most likely the same consensus teams who can’t guard me and send double teams from jump ball . Why are we double teaming a guy who's “not that good” make it make sense please.
