Add another strike against the “Paul Millsap is Good” theory. Simultaneously, you can add a strike in favor of the “Paul Millsap is Ruining the Nuggets” theory. Because Jerami Grant just had another good game in the absence of Paul Millsap, the exact type of good game that he most definitely WASN’T having (or at…

Monte Morris 17 Points Full Highlights (1/26/2020)
As far as I’m concerned, Jamal Murray AKA “Jamalways in a Hurry to Chuck the Ball” can stay injured for a long long time, because his scoring-first style of point guard play isn’t needed on this Nuggets team. What’s needed is Monte Morris and his careful shot selection, his precision passing, his small contract, and…
Read MoreJerami Grant 25 Points Full Highlights (1/26/2020)
Add Jerami Grant to the list of players whose development has been stunted by Paul Millsap the Team Ruiner. Surprise, as soon as Millsap goes out with an injury, Grant starts putting up the kind of numbers that were commonplace for him last season in Oklahoma City. Grant and Michael Porter Jr. should team up…
Read MoreMichael Porter Jr. 17 Points Full Highlights (1/26/2020)
Michael Porter Jr. has now scored in double digits in seven straight games. It’s clear that he’s going to be a core piece of the Nuggets going forward. Not only that, but fellow forward Jerami Grant has also been balling out lately. There’s a lot of reasons to be getting excited for this iteration of…
Read MoreTorrey Craig 15 Points Full Highlights (1/24/2020)
Zion Williamson nuthuggers aren’t going to like hearing it, but Torrey Craig COMPLETELY and BRUTALLY outplayed Mr. No Knees last night. Craig, who I think played Div II college basketball at some random school that nobody’s ever heard of, and who was never even close to being anointed as the next LeBron James, scored the…
Read MoreMichael Porter Jr. 15 Points Full Highlights (1/24/2020)
OFFICIAL DTB DISCLAIMER: Michael Porter Jr. didn’t even have a good game. He needed fifteen shots to get his fifteen points, going 5-of-15 from the field. This highlight video might make it look like he was some kind of shot-making savant who was a walking bucket from the time he checked into the game until…
Read MoreP.J. Dozier 15 Points Full Highlights (1/22/2020)
P.J. “The Bulldozier” Dozier is quickly establishing himself as a rotation player for the Nuggles. After playing two games for the Thunder (two years ago) and six games for the Celtics (last year), I considered his chances at being a long-term fixture in the NBA as being extremely remote. And that’s not a dig at…
Read MoreJerami Grant 19 Points/3 Dunks Full Highlights (1/20/2020)
As if I needed any more proof to support my hypothesis that Paul Millsap is ruining the Nuggles, I present to you: EXHIBIT 38A THAT PAUL MILLSAP IS RUINING THE NUGGLES: Jerami Grant scored 19 this game. Michael Porter Jr. scored 20. Torrey Craig scored 2. Juancho Hernangomez scored 0. The combined production of the…
Read MoreMichael Porter Jr. 20 Points Full Highlights (1/20/2020)
Coach Mike Malone of the Nuggets recently stated his intentions to give Michael Porter Jr. minutes in every Nuggets game from now on, and the implication was that the given minutes wouldn’t just be a token three minutes and change at the end of a blowout, or fifteen seconds at the end of the first…
Read MoreWill Barton 31 Points/7 Assists/7 Threes Full Highlights (1/16/2020)
Will Barton has gotta be the dude in the league who has the worst production/care ratio in the league. What I mean by that is he’s got very good statistical production accompanied by very few people caring or paying attention. Him and Jeff Teague are league-leaders in putting up monster stats while the NBA fandom…
