10 of which are against the bottom third of the league

They play Washington x2, brooklyn x2, charlotte, new orleans, dallas, la clippers, milwaukee x2

The Nuggets down this many are realistically a team under .250, let’s be real. Wizards might be bad but are they lose to the nuggets bench and backup for the nuggets bench bad? I dunno. And if the wizards aren’t that bad, no one else is.

Mavs first game after the Luka trade was at Cleveland.

Cavs won 144-101 and set a franchise record for 3s.

50-19 after the 1st. 91-46 at halftime.

Tristan Thompson played 18 minutes, almost as much as the starters.

The Nuggets have it bad, but that Mavs team was the worst I’ve ever seen. Like those terrible Bobcats team bad.

This may be a scheduled loss for Denver. They can’t have Jamal play 40 MPG in January, and may want to conserve energy for the easier part of the road trip.

Free Jokic

Dependent-Scar-3466

Presuming Jokic and Valanciunas come back no later than 6 weeks, this could be a blessing in disguise. Gets minutes into lower end bench players and the ones that play well might become key rotation pieces

dfaraday

14 | 4 hours ago

Strong disagree - there’s a decent chance at least one of the returning players doesn’t come back 100% and has a lingering issue for the rest of the year. E.g. ag last year or Jamal last summer

Dependent-Scar-3466

Oh like objectively, youd rather none get injured but you can take a silver lining if they find 1-2 rotation pieces

supert0426

Ya the issue is they play 17 games in January that they aren’t going to win now and they’re gonna drop to the 8 seed at best by February, if not worse.

greenwhitehell

1 | 4 hours ago

What’s the argument for Luka over Jokic? If you completely overindex on defense I can see the case for Wemby, Giannis has an outside case anyway (though imo he’s not there) and Shai has the best case of them all, insane talent. But Luka has most of Jokic’s few flaws but even more pronounced.

Plus you said “barely” top 5. Who is the player that is very close to being better than him outside of the ones mentioned?

KarJenSt | Lakers

1 | 4 hours ago

Giannis is without a doubt the best player in the league. Shai has the only case to be called the best. Wemby is clearly better than Jokic because he can give you 80% of Jokic offense but Jokic can give you 5% of Wemby defense. Luka is a better offensive player and they are both really bad on defense but Luka atleast can at time play above average defense

4 out of the 5 Denver Nuggets starters are out for the game against the Cavs. The 5th starter (Jamal Murray) is listed as probable while Jokic’s replacement, Jonas Valanciunas, is also OUT.
