@nuggets Happy BDay to the best ASSISTANT coach the Nuggets ever had.

Happy Birthday, Coach 🎉

@thehealthb0t I thought Fiji water was bottled at the source without human contact, but theres mouse shit in it? Hmm...

@NuggetsLead @BardackJoey After Friday’s presser, it’s hard to feel optimistic about the direction of the Nuggets. If I were Watson, I’d seriously be questioning my long-term future there. Championship windows don’t stay open forever, and right now the organisation looks far from stable.

With the Nuggets' season having concluded and with free agency on the horizon, what will the future look like for Peyton Watson?: theleadsm.com/can-peyton-wat… @BardackJoey

@Shapalicious A stretch without Jokic isn’t enough reason to hand Adelman the job long term. The real test is the playoffs adjustments, rotations, and maximizing a title window with the best player in the world. An early exit with the same issues showing up repeatedly raises fair questions.

Seems like a big reason why David Adelman is still the Nuggets head coach is because of the team’s strong stretch without Nikola Jokic… Josh Kroenke explains. “ I think that that's a real testament to what da and the group did”

@DLineCo @DNVR_Nuggets DA returning tells you the organization doesn’t see him as the main problem. 54 win is still a strong season. The playoffs weren’t good enough, but Denver clearly believes roster instability and depth issues played a bigger role than coaching alone.

Lets talk.

@SlavicNetworks You are the same people, Serbs. Illyrians are Serbs. No matter how often you try and change the narrative the fact remains your ancestors were Serbs.

🚨 BREAKING NEWS: CROATIAN PRESIDENT MILANOVIĆ CLAIMS DALMATIAN CROATS SHARE ILLYRIAN ROOTS WITH ALBANIANS — “WE ARE THE SAME PEOPLE, JUST DIFFERENT LANGUAGES NOW” 🇭🇷🔥🇦🇱 In a recent public statement, President Zoran Milanović said that Croats in Dalmatia have the same ancient Illyrian origin as Albanians. He added: “We are the same, but we have two different languages. Albanians speak Albanian, which was also the language of the Illyrians.” The statement is now being widely celebrated by Albanian nationalist circles as proof of shared heritage and “Balkan unity.” 
This is a dangerous attempt to rewrite history for current political convenience. Croats are a Slavic people — with Slavic language, culture, traditions, and identity formed over centuries. Emphasizing ancient Illyrian roots while downplaying the Slavic core is exactly the kind of historical revisionism used to weaken national identity and push vague “Balkan” or regional projects that often serve non-Slavic interests. Eastern and Slavic nations have seen this pattern before: when politics change, some suddenly want to “rediscover” ancient roots to dilute who we really are. Croats, like Poles, Czechs, Slovaks, Serbs, and others, are Slavic peoples with the right to defend their Slavic identity, language, and demographic future — without apology. True history should be respected, but never weaponized to undermine modern Slavic nations and their sovereignty. Will more leaders in the Balkans and Eastern Europe stand firm and defend Slavic identity instead of rewriting it for political gain? Slavic nations first. Our history. Our identity. Our survival.

@DNVR_Nuggets “Every decision will be about competing for championships.” “We need players that can defend, run, and support Nikola’s style.”

𝑵𝑬𝑾𝑺: Nuggets will hold two end of season press conferences at Ball Arena on Friday 11 am: Josh Kroenke, Ben Tenzer and Jon Wallace 11:30 am: David Adelman

@DNVR_Nuggets My guess is DAs press conference will sound something like this: “We believe in Nikola as the centerpiece.” “We need to get younger, deeper, more athletic, and more consistent around him.” “Last season showed we can’t rely on the same formula.”

@TheNBABase @BrettSiegelNBA DA he didn’t build this team he inherited a championship caliber roster. And 54 wins is not a failure. So the criticism isn’t about whether Adelman can coach, it’s about his. In game adjustments, Rotations under pressure, Ability to elevate in playoff series Failed all 3.

The Nuggets moved on from Michael Malone primarily due to "fear" of losing David Adelman to another team, per @BrettSiegelNBA “One of the reasons the Nuggets ultimately moved on from Malone was out of fear of losing Adelman to another team, as sources said he had long been viewed internally as the franchise's next head coach once Malone moved on. That time came last season, and despite all the struggles faced this season, Denver does not appear prepared to go through another coaching change in the immediate future.” (clutchpoints.com/nba/denver-nug…)

@TheNBABase @BennettDurando 54 wins in the regular season isn’t a failure. The wipe out in playoffs is a massive failure. In a contender window , especially with a core built around Nikola Jokić , regular season success isn’t the benchmark anymore. It’s about deep playoff runs or titles.

David Adelman is expected to return as head coach of the Denver Nuggets for his second season, per @BennettDurando “Despite chatter that Adelman may already be on the hot seat one year into his tenure, the early sense within the organization is that he’ll return for his second season. He led the Nuggets to 54 regular-season wins with 28 different starting lineups before wiping out in the playoffs.” (denverpost.com/2026/05/01/nug…)

@NuggetsLead Jokic is taking responsibility and protecting his coach, but execution and preparation are usually shared when the same issues repeat, it’s never just on the players alone.

Jokic on David Adelman: "It's not his fault we couldn't rebound...there is nothing to blame on David Adelman, it was all us."

@anthonyVslater Jokic is taking responsibility and protecting his coach, but execution and preparation are usually shared when the same issues repeat, it’s never just on the players alone. It’s usually a mix of execution and is the system putting pressure on the opposition

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

@JLegurski @Viktor_Erling @nuggets @AltitudeTV He didn’t appoint himself. Taking a gamble on a rookie coach isn’t a bad move when you’re building, but when you’ve already got the best player in the world, he needs an experienced hand at the helm and a solid supporting cast. Can’t blame DA for not providing that.

@Viktor_Erling @Dsaintdragon @nuggets @AltitudeTV Remember earlier this season when Jokic was basically coaching and play calling on the sidelines. Josh Kroenke told him not to do that anymore, because it made Adelman look bad. He never considered why Jokic was having to do it. Because Adelman was out of his god damn depth.

Final

@TheHoopCentral His decision making in this series has been questionable, to say the least. Funny we’re used to seeing Jamal Murray start slow and finish strong, but this season flipped that script completely. Which version do you take?

Jamal Murray tonight: 12 Points 4/17 FGM 0/2 3PM -18 +/- 40 Minutes

@katywinge @NBABlackburn You can respect the accountability from Jokić, but you have to wonder what he really thinks behind that. He’s pointing it back on himself, mentioning those games, it probably goes deeper than that. Saying the wolves were better is fair… feels like there’s more he’s not saying.

Nikola Jokić after losing the series to the Timberwolves: “I needed to play better and I must play better.” Mentioned the first three games in particular. “They were better in this series definitely.”

@NuggetsLead Blaming DA is too simple but he hasn’t helped himself. Taking a gamble on a rookie coach isn’t a bad move when you’re building, but when you’ve already got the best player in the world, he needs an experienced hand at the helm and a solid supporting cast.

David Adelman is completely incompetent and should have never been hired in the first place

@VicLombardi They are not better, nuggets got out coached and beaten by a lesser teams, that’s absolutely despicable and heads should role over this outcome.

Hard to believe the Nuggets season ends in April. Kudos to the TWolves. Remarkable effort and execution in this series. They’re just better. Jaden McDaniels talked it and walked it. Devastating playoff performance for Denver.

@DNVR_Nuggets Game 6 just like games 2,3 and 4 had no rhythm, no adjustment, and no plan B. When everything stalled, nothing changed. The Denver Nuggets didn’t just lose they were out coached when it mattered most.

Thoughts on that loss?

@SleeperTWolves You’re comparing two completely different things. If offense carries more weight, the pair on the right comes out on top but if defense is the priority, then the pair on the left has the edge. So I’d say they’re just as important to their respective teams.

According to Nuggets fans the two on the left are just as important as the two on the right 😭😭😭😭
