They couldn’t hit a three to save their lives; Jokic kept turning the ball over . They’re definitely floundering

The Kings and Grizz are each 4 games back of Denver.
The Kings & Nuggets split their first 2 games and Kings at Nuggets is on the last day of the season. Just sayin.
If Denver goes 5-5 over its next 10 games, they'll be 52-29 heading into the final game of the season with Sacramento.
So the Kings would need to go 9-3 over its next 12 for that last game to be for the 1 seed.
Not likely to happen, but not impossible.

Don’t look now, but Ochai Agbaji is starting to show signs of being a decent rotation player. Been starting on and off for the Jazz lately and playing more minutes, up to a 36.7% shooting percentage on 3s for the season, with decent volume of shots

Would have been so nice with Mitchell and Garland.

Does anyone else feel like the Jokic MVPs are a bit like the nash MVPs where they are for stats within a system but not the best player in the league? I would not be scared of facing Jokic in a 7 game series

Good thing for him MVP is still a regular season award, then...
Take Jokic off the Nuggets. Who scares you?
Take Embiid, or the refs, off the Sixers. You still have Harden (former League MVP), his refs, and Maxey.
Take Giannis off the Bucks. You still have Holiday, Brook Lopez (DPoY fav), and Khris Middleton.
If the Nuggets weren't losing, it'd still be Jokic.....then everyone else. Since they're in a slump, now we're relitigatng irrelevant history.

A simple 'no' would have sufficed
I don't think the nuggets squad is that bad and I didn't know the nuggets were slumping. I just feel like it remindsme of when nash got it over players that are arguably more important to winning, like Giannis or Embiid. Maybe i'm always against the offensive bias on these awards and an old grouch.
I hope your day improves
That would be awesome. A punishment from the basketball gods for both Phoenix and Durant trying to cheat the long road to a championship. When will the NBA community start calling out Durant for his BS? If he sits out the playoffs while the Nets lose because he’s not there that will really highlight what a loser he is.

Maybe a little. I do think he’s a better/more important player than Nash. But I get some of the same vibe of “we gave it to this guy once and now we have to keep giving it as long as he keeps performing”. If they had followed that principle with Lebron he’d have at least a half a dozen though. It was ridiculous he didn’t win at least one his second stint with us.
I like Jokic more than Embiid as a player but I think it’s Embiid’s turn to win one. The number of MVPs should reflect a players significance to an era and three for Jokic zero for Embiid doesn’t do that.
