Clippers win…
That’s now two straight losses for the Nuggets. What’s going on with this team? Maybe it’s time to stop backing them for a bit while they figure out how to get back to winning form. Could Westbrook be their lucky charm, lol?
Westbrook as their lucky charm? Even other teams don't have respect with him if he's on the three-point line, and that's because they know that he's that awful when shooting behind the line. In their first game against the Thunder, dud shot 2/10 and 1/6 from three-point area. Westbrook isn't their lucky charm. It's their player that has a name of Zeke Nnaji. A role player that got a 4-year $32M contract, but Coach Malone can't even put him inside the court. In their game against the Clippers, he didn't play. I mean you're being paid that huge, but you aren't playing. Aside from Bronny's questionable 4-year contract, this contract is also one of the questionable and worst contracts I've seen.
If the Nuggets play terrible this season, I will not be surprised if Jokic will request a trade just because of the wrong decisions the management has been made.
It's all Jokic and Murray on that game against the Clippers and that cannot happen because it ain't the recipe for a win. Everyone must participate but what happened is that Jokic was forced to score every time just so they could get a point. If Jokic sees his stats, I bet he will be frustrated about what happened to that game. 41 points. Nah, that's not Jokic. 20/10/10, that's him. But 4 assists? I bet he didn't like their first game because no one can contribute on offense so he was forced to do it himself.
80 games left, they must talk this out.
