I think we're on the same page.
Number three is, so this deep, versatile, highly skilled and experienced version of the Denver Nuggets.
Just how great will they be?
Yeah.
I can't wait to watch the Denver Nuggets this season.
I am so excited.
Like, not to spoil anything, but I'm picking them to win the title and not really thinking twice about it.
They've been the best offense in the NBA the past few years whenever Jokic is on the court.
And the past couple of years, particularly last season, it felt like he was doing it with one arm tied behind his back.
And now you give him a solid backup center with Jonas Valanciunas.
You add Bruce Brown Jr., old friend from the finals team.
You get Tim Hardaway Jr.
solidifying the bench, giving yourself more crunch time options.
The more I think about the Cam Johnson, Michael Porter Jr.
trade, the more I like it for the Denver Nuggets just on the court in the short term.
I just think he's a fantastic fit, and he gives you things as a ball handler.
and a play creator that Michael Porter Jr.
just doesn't.
You can go tit for tat about who's a better shooter, who's a better movement shooter.
And you can talk about the years of chemistry that are baked into the relationship with all those DHOs that MPJ had with Jokic.
