hella assists, not many minutes, blowout win? hed do anything to consistently have these games

boksinx

Jokic seems quite happy and content to just be facilitating if they are winning, he is the only one I will not be surprised to see in the future to have something like 5 points and 35 assist lol . He seldom stat pad, the only times I see him stat-padding were the few very near quintuple doubles (almost double digit turnovers lol).

thecalmer

You wouldn’t be surprised if he got 35 assists in a game?

boksinx

From the current players, Jokic is the most probable to break the most assist in a single game record I think. Perhaps Luka too, and for some insane and clowny reasons, I feel Lamelo can pull it off too.

Nuggets players all got a fair share of shots tonight no one really went off besides maybe Braun. Good team win that saves energy for the back to back tommorow

Apotheosis62 | Nuggets

He had 2 at half time and until he got pissed in the second half it might have stayed there

You know the nuggets are winning hard when he has less than 10 points without getting hurt.

I’m gonna go out on a limb and say he hasn’t been that bad this year

QueueCueQ | Nuggets

11 | 3 hours ago

The real truth is that he’s never been bad, just a couple million overpaid. We simply don’t need him on the roster. We have so many high quality wings, and Jokic occupies the hub, making his role a bit awkrawd in a ton of rotations. In reality there are are a bunch of teams in the league that would love his archetype of a relatively big rebounding rim hazard with a clean jumper.

9SidedLemon | Nuggets

1 | 3 hours ago

I mean we don’t have many 4s is the thing, lots of 2s and 3s but it’s just ag at pf. Which is why we kind of get killed when Adelman puts out some of these 4 guard lineups. Nnaji could in theory fill that hole but just hasn’t Ive been a nnaji truther but must admit he hasn’t done enough in the few chances he’s gotten to get more time. Good to great defender, but no offense makes some mistakes.

QueueCueQ | Nuggets

Watch it. We will never trade the best contract in the league, Zeke Nnaji.

Kind of amazing the Sixers still only got to 96 considering half the Nuggets roster stopped playing defense after the first half.

TheNaskgul | Nuggets

11 | 4 hours ago

Genuinely my favorite Jok line. Give me that type of game til playoffs start and I’ll take back everything I’ve ever said about you, Adelman

greywolf2155 | Supersonics

14 | 3 hours ago

It’s interesting that Adelman kept all the starters in pretty long, basically almost until the end of the 3rd

I think that was a good call. These 5 really haven’t had that much time to play together this year, and this was basically a full-speed scrimmage (no offense, 6ers. Well maybe a little offense). I think this is part of why the Nuggets have been so anti-clutch this year, they just don’t have a closing lineup that’s used to playing together

Hopsalong | Nuggets

6 | 3 hours ago

They haven’t played together at all this year. Not since game 8 or so of the season when Braun got hurt, followed shortly by AG. Cam has little experience actually playing with this group. Since you can’t practice in the NBA, Adelman was using the 3rd quarter as practice.

Raisinbrahms28 | Nuggets

100% agree, he needs to get them as many minutes as possible.

Jokic doesn’t seem to care he only have 1 digit points. Just slinging dimes and probably just super happy his teammates played well, win the game and he get to rest.

Got mad at the refs in the 1st quarter tho lol

fuzzythinker | Nuggets

Wow, probably not the first, but should still be rare for a blowout where the winning team’s 2 best shooters combined for only 40 points and everyone else shot 4-7 or worst.

Incredible snoozefest of a st Patrick’s day game lol. Anyway nice to see the boys put on a good shooting day although it was completely unneeded

_theghost_ | Lakers

Yeah, 76ers need to go full retool and it may just necessitate a fresh voice in both areas of the org. Will be an interesting offseason as they have pieces…
