I didnt know who he was until the Nuggets played the Rockets earlier in the week. Now ive seen him step up in two games straight and towards the end of this game he had some really great passes as well.

Never seemed like Denver wanted to play today, which feels like a common theme in pre-7 pm tipoff games for them

Rockets had to send a message and they came with playoff-level physicality all night and neither Jokic nor Jamal looked like they wanted anything more than a simple mid-afternoon ho-hum game, something that will absolutely not fly in a Marc Davis game

Idk why nuggets fans keep typing this, to start the season everyone was going on about how the new acquisitions made the team so deep but now with 3 injuries you’re “ravaged” and the team you’re playing who also has 3 of their top ⁸⁄₉ players missing isn’t?

Sc0rch1ngDr4g0n | Rockets

My hope is Reed becomes a FVV with more offense to more than make up for the worse defense. If he can do that this season it will help a lot.

Like he has more dynamic passing and should be a better shooter. I like how he’s been attacking the rim more as well. On defense, he has the hands for stocks and can learn it with time and experience. Even when he’s fully grown, I’m not sure if he’ll ever be as strong as stocky FVV. But hopefully the offense more than makes up for it.

Rockets played great tonight, very strong defense. All credit to them. But we still had shots that we usually make that just didnt go in, it happens.

Always a pleasure watching us go up against the Rockets, you guys are looking really good. See you in the playoffs!

Edit: Also nice to see the refs call some offensive fouls for once. They did it both ways without inserting themselves too much into the game. If all the refs will be harder on offensive fouls the rest of the way thats good for the sport in general.

ethical hoopers

Jokic is a giant flopper

lethalizered | Thunder

8 | 15 hours ago

Nah, he’s an ethical hooper.

To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Nikola Jokic. The ethical part is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of theoretical basketball most of his hoops will go over a typical viewer’s head. There’s also Adelman’s nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterisation - his personal philosophy draws heavily from Narodnaya Volya literature, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these hoops, to realize that they’re not just great- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike Nikola Jokic truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn’t appreciate, for instance, the assists in Nikola’s existencial stat “Triple Double” which itself is a cryptic reference to Russel Westbrook’s American epic Fathers and Sons I’m smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as his genius unfolds itself on their television screens. What fools… how I pity them. And yes by the way, I DO have a Nikola Jokic tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It’s for the ladies’ eyes only- And even they have to demonstrate that they’re within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand.

Regardless of how dominant the Thunder turn out this year, the west is going to be a bloodbath in the playoffs.

As a Nuggets fans, Houston deserve to win. Our players was bricking their shots.

But still, refs was just awful. Ugly officiating. NBA should have some kind of tribunal for the clubs to challenge these coach after match, providing video evidences and everything. If they’re proved to make bad calls, they should have consequences from fines, suspension to discharge from officiating position.

Even youtube has 3 strikes rules.

The refs are the reason why the nuggets won the last game🤷🏻‍♂️ It’s a tough pill to swallow when the team you root for is on the wrong side of their whistle

Didn’t watch the game and am aware ofc of the FVV situation but these Rockets minutes look like WCF minutes. Basically a seven player rotation, and KD playing 40 min in December ain’t great. What’s their plan?

Waiting on DFS and Tari Eason to get healthy. Once they’re back,hopefully Ime can manage KDs minutes

Who would say giving significant minutes to the No. 3 pick in a position needed for the team would have this impact. Great leap for Sheppard and happy for the team

We should be up 2-1 on the nuggets. I don’t wanna hear about officiating in this game when the last game was worse

Score was closer than it felt with the Rockets shooting so well, and the Nuggets having a shockingly bad night.

Murray’s consecutive misplays, when the Nuggets had trimmed the lead quite a bit in the 3rd, put the game again out of reach, I really feel like forcing these stubborn hero ball plays are what hold him back from being a legit all-star.

Doo doo game by Jokic too.
