That’s career 41% from the corners Jokic 😤

Jamal ISOs too with Jokic on court. Nuggets already stagger their bench rotation so that Jamal or Jokic is always on court, and when Jamal is out, Jokic is the only playmaker. On the flip side, Jamal is the only playmaker when Jokic is out.

I think DeRozan is a great addition that actually helps both Jokic and Jamal out when either is on the bench.

Literally my first thought lmao. You WILL resort to Demar in the fourth quarter and you will like it!

DeRozan has been good with the Kings but I mean, games get unwatchable on the clutch because he just…iso’s every time late in the game.

It was beyond frustrating the number of times all of the pace and ball movement just stopped because DeRozan kept taking the heavily contested 21 foot jumpers.

yall see how tired jok was at the end of the season? as a nuggets fan, im tired of everyone standing around waiting for jokic to do something

This is an outdated view of DeMar. Deebo is a great playmaker now.

Still might be better than Adelman.

May as well try it.

I mean teams are already scoring at will on them targeting Jokic in the playoffs. Might as well.

On average, only 1x the offense if you look at how putrid their bench is

Shedeur nods in approval

The enver Nuggets are so back.

famous defensive trio Jamal Murray and MPJ

He does hopefully help our bench scoring problem.

Unfortunately the defense problem looks way more glaring right now.

Idk you could get a LeBron with that money

The man is about to plant so many trees

Shows his demand. He wanted at least 2x this pay. This is basically the minimum

TIL the word ‘pennies’ is a razor’s edge away from the word ‘penis’. And now all of you know that, too

He’s gonna get the green light from the bench. There’s no one else there

He just needs to average 40 ppg for the next 82 regular season games to hit 30k! He can do it 💪🏾

Would easily be the worst player in the 30K club but it will take him at least two seasons

his new bench guy

I don’t get why people are shitting on this.

DeMar will be a very good sixth man for the Nuggets. He can add some scoring punch off the bench and is an underrated playmaker.

Yeah, Nuggets really only had three play makers in Jokic, Jamal, and AG. Really needed a playmaker to rotate in for Jamal and Jokic, and this is a great pick up.

it sucks it took this long for him to finally go to a team with players significantly better than him. Hes had to be the primary scorer everywhere hes gone.

DeMar DeUnderrated

If I were a Nuggets fan, I’d be excited about this signing. Immediately improved their bench a lot. Adding some scoring punch and some playmaking to that second unit. Real nice move by Denver.

Julian Strawther can make his own shots. Inconsistent but still that archetype

“when” not “if” 😭

We had THJ last year off the bench. And for a few games, Jonas put the ball in the hoop. But yeah, this will help.

If that happens, I promise to wear a shirt with your username on it& the caption “he knew” every weekend

JB is a much better defender than Jamal, but not a better playmaker than Jamal. Nuggets really lack playmakers here.

Yeah you can add them to the list. I’m not really sure if the league is undervaluing jaylej brown or over valuing PG. Not sure how the number work though

Because fuck competing against Knicks, 76ers, Boston, Pistons, and Cavs…

The Nuggets have to worry about Spurs+Thunder and a bunch of mid teams that could crumble from their 35+ year old star going down or crumble anyway even with them.

Gone are the days of the West just completely Dominating the east. Spurs and Thunder are still obviously up there…but the East is deeper

Gonna be the English nuggets again

All three won’t be on the court simultaneously. I’m thinking DeRozan rotates in for Jokic and Jamal.

Probably all we could afford lol

It’s the old Jokic-merchant approach. See: THJ, KCP, Bruce Brown, CB, etc

He’s 38 I think, so not far from retirement most likely. He’s still sorta decent, but very much the kind of player who would best fit off the bench for a competitive team.

I think we’re probably done for awhile.

We have until the deadline to duck the apron. I think the plan now is to see how things play out until February and then we either sell at the deadline or use the Cleveland pick to upgrade the roster and make a run

I just Ctl + F’d “Harden” because I had the same thought…

Their defense was fine against the Wolves, they needed scoring. Murray shot 13% from 3 in the series. They needed someone to get a bucket, especially off the bench, that’s what DemMar does

No defence, no playmaking, he’s getting old

Denver wanted him. They are a top 3 team in the West.

Timberwolves fans should be having a field day
