The Nuggets’ magical Bubble run has come to an end. It’s one thing to come back from 1-3 series deficits against the Jazz (A team whose second best player is Royce O’Neale, and whose third best player is Juwan Morgan) and the Clippers (no time for load management in the playoffs, but also no time…

Lately, I’ve been hearing murmurations that LeBron James, despite being super old now, is actually still playing elite defense for the Lakers. The source of these murmurations? The darkest, most depraved corners of the Internet, right next to all the porn. Initially, I was disinclined to believe them. There is a reason that James’ nickname…

I know it’s hard to see, since Jamal Murray’s blinding radiance is obscuring everything else that the Nuggets are doing, but there are other players in Denver who are stepping up and providing good performances as role players! You’ll just have to take my word on this one. Most people, they’ll see that Murray had…

I’m still waiting for Nikola Jokic to develop the lob chemistry he had with Kenneth Faried with Jerami Grant. I’ve been waiting for almost two whole seasons now, and maybe they’re more comfortable with each other on the court in general, but I can’t see any evidence that the amount of lobs has increased since…

For a good chunk of this season, Jerami Grant was unequivocally the better of the two Grant brothers (the other being Jerian Grant, in case you forgot about him). The reason his betterness was unequivocal was because he was on a roster and Jerian wasn’t. Even if Jerami had only averaged 0.3 PPG on -50%…

I think Jerami Grant needs to be given more credit for steadily developing from a lanky, raw player on the 76ers, who only had athleticism and nothing else, to a still lanky, still athletic wing player with a well-rounded scoring game. I feel like I’ve given him credit for this before but I’m too lazy…

Props to these national announcers for somehow being aware, not only of Jerami Grant’s existence, but that he has greatly improved as a player since his early days. That’s an amount of insight that I don’t expect from dudes whose job it is to know about the entire NBA, which usually ends up being closer…

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…
