  1. Kings fan here, sorry about this you guys. Was really, REALLY excited for this guy. fucking hell…

  2. Absolutely devastating

    Prayers up to him manifesting that he comes back stronger

  3. Career changing injury for a big man, hope he fights back but it’s gonna be difficult.

  4. Probably wasn’t gonna play much after the Saric signing but damn this sucks. On the bright side: rookie red shirt years aren’t the end of the world. Chet looks great. Ben Simmons looked good until his mental and health deteriorated. Even MPJ looked good until he needed another back surgery

  5. Fuck this we’re so cooked. Our bench was already going to be paper thin as is. Cancar and Pickett have looked god awful. The only playable guys we have on the bench boil down to Watson, Strawther, and Saric now.

    The way Booth is wasting Jokic’s prime should be a fireable offense

  6. Just end me man.. feel terrible for him. Now we have to see more zeke minutes

  7. Booth looks like a total dumb fuck after one season. He did nothing in free agency because Holmes was his ace up his sleeve.

  8. the window is so wide guys, we can just train our young guys and wait for them to develop, a 30 years old Jokic can totally wait for them to grow into a championship level team, we don’t need any proven win-now pieces, the future is bright

    young guy in his first serious game:

  9. This is unreal man unreal. This was the worst case scenario to booth plan. I wouldn’t be so down on this if Zeke wasn’t so bad and Cancar isn’t injury prone

  10. Man, just sad. Sad for Holmes. Sad for the Nuggets. Sad for the NBA having a generational player like Jokic not getting the right support around him in his prime because second apron bullshit. Fuck!

  11. it’s my fault guys, i researched suddenly today who has been injured in history of NBA in summer league

  12. This *would* happen to us. No contender needs their rookie to step up more than we were hoping he would
