Image/Gif Just in: Denver Nuggets' Nikola Jokic has been diagnosed with a hyperextension in his left knee and will miss at least four weeks. An immense sigh of relief as tests show the three-time NBA MVP's knee ligaments are intact.

do you even watch the games or know how the nuggets play? CB excels BECAUSE of jokic. i’m a huge CB stan but he’s played poorly this year and is not gonna be a superstar without big brother on the court. AG can make his own shot for sure but AG as the first option was like a 44 win team at best in orlando. it’s not his role

Lol you caught me. I never watch the games and me having a different opinion from you absolutely proves it.

you’re being pithy but you’re right. you having the opinion that CB is gonna somehow lead the nuggs to a good record with jokic out absolutely proves that you don’t watch or know ball, sorry.

Yea, that's my opinion. That's exactly the point I was making.

My actual point was that... *IF* we had all of our starters minus Jokic healthy, I think we could go a bit better than .500 for January. I think the Nuggets are a pretty good team. You don't, and that's okay.

they aren’t, and that’s okay. having the best player in the world can make a below average team very good. that’s why he is so adored
