Mehhh Watson was putting up numbers earlier in the season when he was in the starting lineup with Gordon out and Strawather has shown promise when he's gotten consistent minutes. Hell even Zeke Nnjai has shown flashes when he's gotten consistent minutes.

You don't need those guys be all stars. You just need them to produce some and help hold down the fort during the non-Jokic minutes.

We're also not going to pretend like people weren't calling for Malone's job before these cats came into the fold.

Braun turned out to be an upgrade over KCP

Ironically, the problem with the team has been their vets

Bringing Westbrook in was a massive mistake. It always is with him
MPJ hasn't improved since the title run
Jamal is fat and out of shape
And then it's this guy:


With all that being said, You can't continue to be some daycare shyt, bringing in all these young guys when you have a championship window open. The next GM has to be ship some of these kids out and bring in some veteran help.

Veterans can be expensive, so the margin for error is practically zero for them. Nnaji at $8 mil a year shouldn't be causing so much issues. What Booth did was try to bring in upperclassmen who could plug and play. The Pacers are doing this with somewhat better results. Denver's vet help was basically Westbrook, Saric and that socialite DeAndre Jordan.

Watson averaged 11ppg as a starter this season and they were sub-.500 during that time. Literally EVERY player shows flashes at some point, it doesn't mean anything more than that. These guys just arent very good.

Fans of every team calls for their HC's job at some point. People wanted Steve Kerr fired because he wasn't "developing" wiseman. It's the same thing here. Warriors fans been using the Kuminga "consistent minutes" talking point for about 3 seasons now and he's a net negative. He gets numbers, but it doesn't translate to winning. Every fan thinks their young guys are next up, but it's only because they play next to a superstar why they even look decent. These dudes just ain't it.

I've only watched about 15 Nuggets games this season so I'll let the Denver diehards tell it...go to the nuggets message board and see what they think about Watson, Zeke and Strawther.




These are G-league level guys that have no business on an NBA roster. You can't FORCE a guy to play at an NBA level when they can't. Especially for a contender.



Calvin Booth hit on Braun and was abysmal everywhere else.
