2695436, It’s very easy defending him, I truly don’t care about this one though

However I did laugh at the creativity and how pressed the OP was to even think of this one, lol.

If Houston wins(they won’t), I can at least give credit to that gritty warrior and all time great PG CP3, who I have always defended.

I’m all in on pulling for Portland, either way though. Easily the most likable team left in the West.

We can go full agenda, let me know. The chances of the premise being *less* true 2, 3, 5 years from now... quite slim, to say the least.

Everyone on the squad gets a shit-ton of blame today for sure. But Jokic the least, easily.
2695888, Bro. Stop. You fucked up. Take your L. OPENLY and proudly.

I actually didn't realize how much Jokic had already sewed this up until I ran that through. Damn. And leading a team with no other HOF's on a deep run the first go-round (as opposed to getting swept WITH a great cast)? And with those numbers. Wow. This is really easy.

I probably won't even need to up this next year. But I will.
2695873, Lol damn

no need to plea cop or sugarcoat.

its obviously early in his career and dude is gonna ball out for the next decade but he shrunk under the bright lights today.

gotta give him credit. boy had them niggas confused out there.
2720313, Can we agree it’s crazy they gave away Melo’s number though?
Posted by pretentious username, Wed Sep-16-20 12:46 AM
Like sure, Melo’s run in Denver didn’t get them a title like they dreamed it would... but cmon, the man is a legend and you gave away his number just a few years after he left (and while he’s still playing)? Look at their retired number list. Melo absolutely did enough to be honored with that group.

I could almost understand if Jokic was already a star on another team and THEN went to the Nuggets and requested 15, but at the time he was just a 2nd round pick and no one knew he’d play at this level. Tell him to pick ANY other number.

Posted by guru0509, Tue Jun-08-21 05:50 PM
if he takes them to the WCF finals again*

(Melo only made one)

but


Nuggets fans were TOTALLY out of line for booing him that loudly. Very uncalled for.

2739625, No arguments here re: booing
Posted by khn, Tue Jun-08-21 05:58 PM
Shit was disgraceful. And he rightly made us pay in that game.

At this point, Melo's departure should be reconciled and his legacy as a Nugget should be celebrated by all Nuggets fans. But Denver sports fans are real damn stupid.
2739622, big W

2739623, If Jokic retired after the season would he be in the HOF?

2739624, lol, okayplayer. n/m
Posted by khn, Tue Jun-08-21 05:56 PM
2739629, Honestly? Yeah, probably.
Posted by Frank Longo, Tue Jun-08-21 07:08 PM
3 All-NBA teams, 3 All-Star teams, 1 MVP, and an Olympic silver medal for Serbia. No MVP has been left out of the HOF yet.

To put it another way, that other post had some people saying "it's close" for Derrick Rose, and Jokic's resume is already unquestionably better than Rose's.

Do I think his HOF resume today is better than Melo's? No, because Melo's played three times as many seasons as Jokic, and longevity plays a massive role in the HOF. But I also don't blame any Nugget fan for saying Jokic's accomplishments in a Nugget uniform has been better than Melo's. Even setting aside the MVP (which you can't do), Melo never made first team All-NBA as a Nugget, whereas Jokic has done it twice.
2739639, Yao is in the hall. Jokic will be there for sure.
Posted by khn, Tue Jun-08-21 09:17 PM
All this posturing. It’s hilarious.
2739640, That's the next question. Is Derrick Rose a HOF'er? Some say yes, some...

Bad news is that Jamal and Michael are coming back. And then he gets the real trophy.
