Josh Kroenke Reveals Why Nuggets Chose To Build Around Nikola Jokic
The Denver Nuggets made an ambitious call in 2015 when they decided to build their roster around their second-round pick from the year before, Nikola Jokic.www.yardbarker.com
I like what they have done in Denver by promoting team basketball. I have no idea why a statement as verifiable as the one I made is so controversial unless you guys are just trolling me out of boredom.
Lots of teams attempt this and never has one accomplished it without tons of luck.
The Nets did this and wound up with a good team but it was not till they traded them all to get Harden, Durant and Kyrie on the same time that they got to the level Denver is on.
Sorry, second round picks don't win you a championship or land a league MVP on your team.

Yeah, I guess the Lakers really didn't want to go out sorry 2 years in a row.

The series has been more competitive than one would assume by looking at Denver's 3-1 advantage. The Lakers had disastrous 3rd quarters in games 1 and 3 and blew a 20-point advantage in game 2. Denver's still gonna take this but it wouldn't surprise me if the Lakers win another and force a game 6.
