One thing is for sure, I'm sick of waiting for Zeke Nnaji. They need to just play DeAndre every night and sit Zeke when everybody is healthy.
should have dumped him at the deadline last year but obviously the entire rest of the league already knows that he's not going to amount to anything

DeAndre Jordan having a double double in 2023 is one of the funniest things ever. Almost up there with his 100% shooting from 3 last year

I wasn't able to watch the second half of the Broncos game so I missed this play by Bolles. Doing this against Garrett is no easy feat. Props to him.

The Nuggets sent Jay Huff, Braxton Key, and Jalen Pickett down to Grand Rapids today.

Sending down a center, forward, and point guard leads me to believe that Jokic, Gordon, and Murray are playing tonight.

Props to Malone for putting Deandre Jordon back in after that game in LA. He deserved it.
As soon as Gordon is back Zeke should be completely out of the rotation. Give Jordan 8-12 minutes per night and if Jokic needs any extra rest run Gordon as the smallball 5.

Going to be really interesting to watch Tiger’s swing progress over 4 days. Right now it looks good if inflexible.

Strategically its the worst thing you could do in the regular season. Jordan is well rested and playing good for spurts, great asset to have. Might need it in the playoffs. But that's it, he's just filling minutes while his body holds up. Zeke needs time to work on his game and be part of the rotation for the rest of the regular season. If he's not contributing the way Malone wants him to then he can keep him out in the playoffs.

Zeke has had four years to work on his game and he's literally a worse offensive player today than he was his rookie year. He's never going to figure it out. He's a situational defensive roleplayer. That's his ceiling.

Neither Jordan nor Zeke should or will play any minutes in the playoffs as long as Jokic, Gordon, Porter, and Watson are healthy.

Starters, Jackson, Braun, and Watson. Holiday maybe. That's your playoff rotation. Same as last year but with Reggie and Watson/Holiday instead of Bruce and Green. Watson is the man they need to be getting ready for the playoffs. He's the guy who needs to grow the most the rest of this regular season.

Regular season rotation should be

Starters:
1. Jokic
2. Murray
3. Porter
4. Gordon
5. KCP
---Rotation---
6. Jackson
7. Braun
8. Jordan
---Situational rotation--- (depending on matchup, game situation, how they're playing)
9. Holiday
10. Watson
11. Strawther
---Deep bench--- (garbage time, injury/rest replacements)
12. Nnaji
13. Gillespie
14. Pickett
15. Key
16. Tyson
17. Huff
---Injured reserve---
18. Cancar

Should be, maybe. Going to be? Nope. Also probably will want to work in a depth PG at some point. Its the regular season and 50 wins might get you the #1 seed so winning all the games with the best roster isn't necessarily the objective. Guys will get their deserved time when we get to April, until then its development time and seeing who can be the next revelation like Braun.

We generally only play 9 or 10 guys a night anyway. Zeke is the 12th man at best. There is no argument for him to be getting minutes over a guy like Watson or Holiday.

So Von Miller needs to go to jail forever.

Tyreke Hill too, but he already got away with it twice.

Zero tolerance for beating pregnant women and children. Period.
