Sounds like sour grapes to me. Denver has had a solid front office staff and most their core is under 25. Their Owner is Kroenke kid who played at Mizzou.

That or Denver has trailed by huge margins in the majority of their elimination games and the teams in the lead demonstrably took their feet off the gas.
 
the scary thing is, nuggets has a young roster that could still improve and come back even better next year.

Some of the was great defense by nuggets and other was just plain easy misses by Clippers. I'm jelly of Nuggets. They move the ball,play defense and all like each like brothers.i don't know how anyone could hate a team that plays the right way, maybe I'm to old school but tip your cap to them. They are young and built to win now and in future. I'm jelly. Atleast the jazz will be picking in the lotto next year.

We You play till the final whistle and everybody knows this. Stop making excuses and give credit where credit is due. If jazz had any heart they could be in this situation instead of Nuggets
 
How many times has Doc Rivers lost a series after a 3-1 lead? Is it 3 times now? More?

Denver is a fine example of how to properly utilize your development team. None of their young core with the exception of Murray were high lotto talents(OPJ was projected to be but then he slipped) but they all posses good physical tools which allows a development coach to help shape them into NBA skills and values to your team's benefit.

Imagine our development team trying to work on guys like George Niang and Tony Bradley, and countless hours of frustrations behind it... what could they actually work on? they simply don't have the physical bodies and tools that resembles a NBA player at high-intensity levels. they could run drills/practices all day long but basically unplayable as intensity increases. the size/physicality are always the priority for NBA scout because these are the fundamentals your coaches can't teach.

Nuggets are athletic and long... and YOUNG. Jazz need all 3 of those attributes.

yep, kinda sad to see us running a 7man rotation down the stretch simply because of how unplayable our bench players are at a high intensity level.

it's not like these guys are completely impossible to find either... Who have heard of Luguentz Dort's name before July?

I say let's forget about players that are theoretically "skilled" and "smooth" with "high basketball IQs" and focus on raw talents with the highest physical upside so our development staff can actually have projects they know they can work on.

This is what everyone was saying about Ingles his first two or three years here. Sometimes you need to give those types of athletes time to hone their craft. Ingles wasn’t anywhere near the player or style of play he is now. I’d like to see what Niang does next year.

Ingles is a unicorn and you can't expect to produce players like him on a consistent basis. Even for Joe, I'd see him as a role player who struggles with consistency at high levels because of his physical limitations.
