Keeler: Nikola Jokic’s critics are the big whiners, Charles Barkley. Not Nuggets coaches. Not Nuggets fans.

Oh, so now we’re “whiny,” Charles Barkley?

Dang straight. Loud and proud. Wah, wah, wah.

Here’s why:

In a game that actually meant something, on Feb. 16, Nuggets All-Star Nikola Jokic put up 35 points, 17 boards and eight assists in San Francisco against Golden State. Steph Curry’s Golden State. Steph Curry’s home floor. Denver won, 117-116, to stun the current No. 2 seed in the Western Conference playoff bracket.

Big night for the reigning NBA MVP. Big W for one of the West’s hottest teams over the past four weeks.
