its the new CBA which fucks up players who have super max and teams that have a super team or are on the road to become super teams..... one thing is sure if a big contract player does not play up to his contract he will not survive as per the new CBA

The fact the lakers lead the Nuggets 70% of the series and the nuggets got bounced by the Timberwolves. AND they just lost their 4th best player, for nothing does not look good for the Nuggets at all.
@THE_BEAR_JEW3 ай бұрын
Leading the series a lot of the time means nothing if you can't pull off the win. Basically it means you're playing a good first half or maybe 3 quarters and that's it. Fact is the Nuggets have owned the Lakers for the past 3 seasons and will likely continue to do so. The Wolves needed 7 games and a huge comeback to beat Denver. Considering the Wolves were built to beat Denver, that shows Denver is still legit. I wouldn't call KCP the 4th best player. It's Jokic, Murray, Gordon, and MPJ as their unquestionable top 4. KCP was 5th on there and I'm not about to say it's doom and gloom when a team loses its 5th best guy.

Losing in the finals is not the same failing as losing in first round. Media nowadays makes it seem like outside of the champion it's the same result for other 29 teams and that's not true .. Being in the finals for a franchise is a huge success on the season. As an owner, you got a bunch of extra games, all televised, and I'm sure merch sales went up. 2023-24 Mavs had a successful season for their franchise. The best possible result isn't the only successful result. Each team has their own version of a successful season depending on where they are. It's wild to me that their is a more negative view on DAL for losing to a superior BOS team than MIN for losing to DAL. ANT gets praise for "taking next step" despite losing but Luka "failed" and has all these negative takes from media.

To me the nuggets and the bucks are in similar situations. Nuggets probably need to focus on adding another scorer to the team that can take pressure off Murray and jokic s. A guy like Demar Derozen can score on an off ball. He can iso pick and roll. I think he would be worth trading 2 picks for. The bulls could also spot some role players for a third 1st rd pick. Give them some younger players. They definitely could package a guy like Porter with the picks. Maybe extend him say 120 million. Do a sign and trade with DeMar at his age you give him say 2yrs 50-60 mill and a team option for a third. He isn't a force multiplier superstar level player. He gets a good contract. He is with a legit playoff team. I think there not active enough honestly. You might even need to make a trade on Gordon to add more depth. You drafted Watson . Do you put more focus into his development. The teams already a playoff team. With a guy like Murray and Derozen he could have two guys to kinda figure out his strengths. Bucks honestly need to rebuild by next season. Trade Lopez portis Middleton and anyone else . Id go into next season 26 with 2 players on the roster mid late 1st . Those guys are still useful on playoff teams so maybe focus on striking free agency and possibly getting late to mid first rd picks so you can get younger around Gianni's and dame.

Of course Nuggets are failing Jokic. Completely. Thing is - Kroenke's are putting Nuggets on the market, and the talks are already happening. So Kroenke's are trying to control the cost as much as possible. That's the bottom line - Kroenke's are selling Nuggets and trying to squeeze every dime out of the deal. F*k Jokic, F*k the team - Kroenke's $s are at stake. Thing is - Booth is IN on the deal too... Probably got a "sweetener" from Kroenke's to sit tight, don't rock the boat and keep his dumb mouth shut. Big money is at stake. Malone is under NDA so he (even though he's furious) can't say shi* either. It's kinda funny that a) Nuggets fans didn't figure this out, and b) that Kroenke's think they will be able to pull this off unnoticed. :))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))) It was kinda obvious :))))) Couple of weeks ago: Josh Kroenke: “When Nikola Jokic is on your roster, you're going for it. We have the best player in the world. We have a responsibility to him to try and go for it.” Calvin Booth: "Im the steward of Jokic's prime" :))))))))))))))))))) Two weeks later - Nuggets don't even have a roster :))))))) Not to mention that their best hope left is Russ Westbrook :)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))) (and Russ is not an idiot and he'll tell them to f* off) :))))))))))))))))) But - no tax, no cost, net profit untouched. Kroenkes and Booth :)))))))) LIARS. Dirt cheap, shameless LIARS. One little thing though - I'm not sure Kroenkes are counting on Jokic busting this "deal" wide open. By just DEMANDING THE TRADE. The "valuation" of Jokicless Nuggets will be utter doodoo. I can only imagine the horror :)))))))) I'm so looking forward to see this happening. Kroenkes getting stuck with this pile of poopoo and Jokic doing the "wave and smile" thingy. Dumb, cheap, greedy, dishonest Kroenkes. BTW - Booth is now in Europe - he's NOT in US, even though it's the 11th hour of the FA... He's in EUROPE. Why? He's there to APPEASE Jokic - to give him some BS story in hope that Jokic will not fuck up Kroenke's little scheme. The idea is - appease Jokic, get him to do some public BS with Booth (interview, video, appearance, photo... anything) - like "nuggets GM is supporting Jokic and Serbia in the Olympics, even though it's critical time for the Nuggets"... a "grand gesture" to make sure he doesn't blow this deal up. What a pathetic bunch of cigani. But, Raznatovic is way ahead of these bozos. There won't be any "meets" any "photos" or any any.,.. Jokic will simply IGNORE and AVOID Booth like he would avoid an infected dog. And there will be "Jokic Demands a trade" news coming in the next week or so. And that will destroy Kroenke's calculation. F*k you Kroenkes.
