Nikola Jokic says he wants to stay with Denver Nuggets

sportsMay 1, 202622429

Nikola Jokic said he intends to remain with the Denver Nuggets this offseason after Denver’s playoff exit to the Minnesota Timberwolves. When asked about a summer extension, Jokic said "I still want to be Denver Nugget for ever," expressing a clear preference to stay. Jokic defended coach David Adelman, saying "It’s not his fault that we could not rebound. It’s not his fault we could not catch the ball very well," and placed responsibility on the players. His commitment matters because Jokic is the franchise centerpiece and his choice will shape Denver’s offseason roster decisions and contract strategy.

Hey, you guys. Remember that time we beat the Denver Nuggets in Game 6 with a skeleton crew?

Skeleton crew? Bones hardly even played.

Finchy played 8 guys. Our top three guards out. Our top three 3-point shooters out. Against best player in the world. Finchy masterclass.

Spent all of Q2 and Q3 sitting in my car at the high school waiting for my kid to get out rehearsal. ☹️ But at least I had Alan and JimPete calling it on the radio!

it'll always be awesome that the Denver Nuggets won a championship. it'll always suck that the Nuggets only won once, for a variety of reasons that were in their control and outside of it.

Nikola Jokic on Denver Nuggets coach David Adelman: “It’s not his fault that we could not rebound. It’s not his fault we could not catch the ball very well. There is nothing to blame for David Adelman. It was all us.”

The Wolves are responsible for the last two head coach firings by the Denver Nuggets. (Adelman is toast)

In a series that saw the Minnesota Timberwolves outscore the Denver Nuggets by 27 points, they were +34 in the 46 minutes where they had Naz Reid, Julius Randle, and Rudy Gobert on the floor together.

The Denver Nuggets are being outplayed, out coached and outclassed in every aspect of the game. Minnesota is playing like a team that wants to win a playoff series. The Nuggets look lost, pathetic and sad. #MileHighBasketball
