Do Rookies Impact Winning?
Only 7 rookies in the past 8 years have scores of +2 or higher on RAPTOR. 5 of them — Nikola Jokic, Kristaps Porzingis, Luka Dončić, Donovan Mitchell and Ben Simmons — became All-Stars.
The class of Class of 2021 has 4 so far

To those who have asked: There will be no formal officiating report on the Markieff Morris-Nikola Jokic incident because it came outside of the Last Two Minute timeframe and because the margin of the score was too large to have a report issued, regardless. – 2:45 PM

There were so many REALLY interesting basketball takeaways from last night’s game. The Nuggets dominated one of the best teams in the NBA despite being down 2 starters. Jokic continued his “tour” of dominating the league’s best big men. New bench rotation worked great. – 12:03 PM

Nikola Jokic this season:
✅ 25.4 PPG

Jokic is the fourth player since the ABA-NBA merger to average at least 25p/10r/5a through his first 10 games of a season.
He joins Giannis Antetokounmpo (4x), Luka Doncic (2019-20), and DeMarcus Cousins (2017-18). pic.twitter.com/wietSmYEEk – 11:01 AM

My best guess is that Nikola Jokic will get a 2 game suspension from the incident last night.
Jokic has been suspended only 1 time (leaving the bench) and his lack of on court incidents will certainly be taken into account.
A suspension would cost him $210,417 (per game) – 9:51 AM

Morris’ foul was total bullshit given the game/time situation. That hit would’ve knocked most players on their asses and provoked some sort of retaliation from anyone, but not like that, man. I get it, Jokic was straight seeing red, but you can really fuck somebody up like that. – 12:51 AM

That was a very impressive win for the Nuggets. Jokic was dominant. Barton was on fire. Defense was elite. Nuggets figured some things out with the bench/rotation.

Nikola Jokic is going to mess around and win another MVP.
No MPJ. No Murray.
25-15-10 on 14 shots to easily beat a fully loaded and rolling Heat squad.
Most importantly?
2 blocks, 2 steals and 3-10 shooting for Bam. It’s early but BY FAR best defensive season of his career. – 11:31 PM
