CP3 takes the low road because he's classless and has always been scared of trying to win straight up


He's this generation's version of Isaiah Thomas: both were small cheap short artists who hide behind teammates and are poor shitty sports

It's why when Rondo duffed CP no one minded

The MVP should give him a hard foul and teach him some manners

This is the damn problem with the @NBA
right now.. you do not make that call vs Jokic a FLAGRANT2. The swipe was a frustration foul. We’ve seen worse. The fans do not attend games for this kind of call. You’ve EJECTED the league-MVP. You don’t do this.#Unreal

That's some of the worst officiating I've seen in a hot minute

Better be a cheaper deal since he is always hurt…..

Free-agent guard Will Barton has agreed to a two-year, $32 million deal to stay with the Denver Nuggets, his agents, Rich Beda and Drew Morrison of CAA, told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.

The Nuggets also agreed to a two-year, $10 million deal with 13-year veteran Jeff Green, his agent Jason Glushon told ESPN's Malika Andrews. The agreement includes a player option in the second year of Green's contract.

Re-signing Barton, whose seven seasons in Denver make him the longest-tenured Nugget, was considered a top priority for president of basketball operations Tim Connelly. Barton, 30, declined his $14.7 million player option for next season, making him a free agent.

figured. . . that's a ton of money for barton, given his lack of durability lately, but it's not like they could have done any better in open free agency, with their cap situation. . . i'm assuming jeff green means jamychal (sp?) green is gone, and that's fine. . . he's likely to be more expensive, and he's nothing special. . . ultimately, i just don't think the nugs have enough either way-- not unless murray comes back really strong at the end of the year, and even then their defense just isn't good enough for them to be any sort of legit contender. . . they might have enough offense to get through a round or two, but when you get to that conference finals level, everybody plays good if not great defense as well as having an excellent offense, and denver just doesn't compete on that end of the floor. . . as far as i'm concerned, shaking up the roster with a major sign and trade is their only available avenue for getting over that hump, and i haven't seen a single sign that they're even considering that. . . given that i probably won't be able to watch them on TV next year anyway, i don't honestly care all that much. . .


edit: whoops, i see that they did re-sign jamychal as well. . . at a much higher number than he's worth, IMO, although he at least does help some on the defensive end. . .

They re-signed Jamychal in addition to Jeff Green. So they are basically running it back + Jeff Green minus Millsap. I don't love the Barton re-signing, but I suppose if he ever got back to 100% then he could actually contribute. He knows the system and is well respected in the locker room and around the league, so I'll trust them there...

To be fair, they were playing as well as any team in the league before Murray went down - I'm not sure this is the offseason to shake it up. Gordon made them much more formidable defensively. The sad part is that this was the year where the stars kind of aligned for a team like Denver/Milwaukee/Phoenix to make a run -- they likely won't get so lucky next year. I'm not sure they can go toe to toe with a full strength Kyrie/Durant/Harden, but I do think they'll be in the mix in the west and if Jamaal can get hot in the playoffs then anything is possible.

Dog,

I usually pony up for the NBA streaming service, so you could use mine if you want. Granted you would probably have to use a VPN so you're tagged as 'out of market' or location.

I have watched every Broncos game since 2011. I've seen every Tebow run, every Manning pass and every suck ass Broncos offense for the last 5 years or so. I've never once paid a subscription for anything.

Shit, you might be in a better position to help Dog than I am!

The Nuggets would not be complete without someone to turn the ball over in the fourth quarter. See: Andre Miller.

I don't like the Barton signing either, but is what it is, hopefully some of our draft picks start taking minutes away. We also need Porter to take another step across the board. I'm kind of tired of the flashes. Is it him and consistency or is it coaches decisions, not sure but that needs to get ironed out if we want to contend next year. Losing Murray just sucked it would be like any team losing there 2nd best player. Imagine the suns with one less of Paul or Booker or even the bucks down Middleton or Giannis
