I think the call to not play MPJ is an organizational decision. We'll treat KP with kid gloves for being off 2 years. Durant going to be out a year and a half essentially when he plays next. Not so sure I can put this entirely on Malone.

MPJ hasn't played meaningful basketball in almost 3 years now yeah? Due to various injuries.

They're super deep already and I'm sure management is telling him to not rush his fragile ass back.

Malone is an idiot and it appears no one in the front office or the media is interested in putting pressure on Malone so we can see what he has.

Malone and the media has this retarded fascination with Will Barton so they can shot Will the thrill when he makes in explosive dunk after seven games of being a complete non-factor.

They need to trade him because if we lose Beasley because of this stupid bullshyt of keeping his bloated ass contract, I’m going to be pissed.

there is no reason he shouldn’t be playing at least five minutes a game and Grant should be starting over Barton but for some retarded reason he is still starting Barton.

Malone is going to prevent the nuggets from maximizing their potential. If I’m MPJ I would force the nuggets hand and request a trade if I’m not going to play.

he is fully healthy, a full year since his last back surgery and finished his rehab. No one is saying he should start, but five to ten minutes a game especially when the offense is stagnant and no one can hit the broadside of a barn isn’t rushing him. Also the nuggets are not deep at the three, Grant can play both forward spots but he is used primarily at the 4 not the 3. Barton is not a 3. Craig and Juancho are and the later is glued to the bench and Craig is a 3 and d specialist.

I'm not disagreeing

I'm just saying that's most likely the front office and entire organizational mentality of why he's racking up DNPs

It might not be Malone's fault necessarily

He should be getting minutes. I'm sure he will soon. But the org is clearly being very very cautious

Mike Malone said were too deep. :hhh: This nikka expect me to believe Porter isn't better than most these nikkas? :mjlol:
We :dahell: you a wiz.. nvm

Yeah no reason why Jerami Grant is getting minutes over Porter Jr.

If he’s that fragile at least let him break in transit than just being stuck in the warehouse.

But Grant's actually a legit starter in this league :gucci:
