*Steph breaks left hand later in the day*

This didn't age well already.. steph just went down too..

[marshallpo]

I've been saying this. nuggets got too much depth. It's gonna hurt the development of MPJ and Bol Bol.

“Ask me that question in a week and it might be completely different”

Guess that’s the case lol

[jamesk]

I figured this would happen to MPJ. Denver’s so deep idk which player you take out the rotation. Even a guy like Juancho would be in a teams rotation if he was on a diff team

[drobinsin]

Richard jefferson hasnt seen the warriors play this season

[michaelwood]

Considering how badly Luka and KP played, I’m pleasantly surprised about this game

[Spook]

porter is basically just making free money. And his teams cool with it.

[mxp]

Don’t think MPJ fully healthy yet. He’s wearing a brace for his foot drop. Which might be a side effect from the back surgery that he had. 🧐

[OGxced]

Funny how she’s using klay Thompson as a crutch to the warriors success, but was the same person who didn’t vote klay to all nba team.

[anthonydhatton]

MPJ needs to go to ATL where he and Trae can reunite and take over the NBA

[willieduriojr]

The man can’t put himself in the game bruh 🤦🏿‍♂️🤦🏿‍♂️🤦🏿‍♂️.

[Cryptonicmx]

The title should mention dallas mavericks

[bensmith]

He’s a rookie on one of the deepest teams in the NBA. Not much of a story here

[col_db_looded]

The time to try him out in a game is now!

[kalebcahalan]

It’s the first week of the season, chill y’all

[BlackBuu]

Needs to play on a team that rebuilding the nuggets don’t got time to give him a chance to develop his potential they’re trying to make it deep in the playoffs . Good fit for the wizards since wall is out would be a good second option under Beal

[JoshuaFrick]

I said this on all the 2018 NBA draft forums. I've had the same back surgery that MPJ had, only mine came at 29. It's alarming that he needed his at 18. His health will always be a question mark. That's why the team willing to take a chance on him in the draft is a team with a full bench. They don't need MPJ to be healthy, so they can afford to take that chance. Therefore, his opportunity isn't going to come until Denver gets an injury to a member of their rotation.

The media picked teams like GSW and Sacramento over Dallas. "experts."

[ASJ]

Denver needs to do whatever they can to get him on the court. If they were the best team they would have won it all last year. There is room to improve
