Heating Up Some Nuggets To Go With My 'Big-Face Coffee'! | Official Miami HEAT (#8) vs. Denver Nuggets (#1) | 2023 NBA Finals Thread

[NormanConnors]

Highsmith with more points in the 4th than Butler had after that scuffle with Grant Williams when nikkas were talking like Butler took over the game and put on a generational display

Never seen a more narrative driven player

Vincent low-key has been the Heat MVP

this depressing ass post-game show

NBA TV postgame is more entertaining

Jokic going on with Shaq, Barkley and Grant Hill

nikkas lost by 11 but now the series is feeling “sweepish” coli basketball fans

if you watched the whole game then you saw how denver dominated that game and coasted to a win…the 11-pt win doesn’t paint a full/accurate picture

 

[CP3.]

I know Jimmy is in the locker room looking at his stats and thinking he had an efficient game. nikka had the worst +/- on the team.

How can you be an elite player and be -17 in a finals game

They were literally better without him and might have made a run if he didn’t play the 4th

Easy. He's not an elite player.

He's the level below that with the potential to have the odd game here and there that matches the elite guys. That's all. He tricked y'all.

Amazing how nikkas go all in on a dude if he shows he's a 'dawg'. Same shyt happens with Jaylen Brown and suddenly dummies think he's better than Tatum.

 

[Bathing Ape]

That game was a whoopin. The final score wasn't indicative.

I respectfully disagree, jimmy just ain’t show up.

Jokic look sloppy but he strong as fukk.

I knew it might be getting spooky for the league when they beat the spurs in the 1st round a few years ago and he was sonning LMA. Before that series LMA had spent his time in San Antonio just dropping that elbow in Jokic chest knocking him back and doing whatever he wanted. Then all of a sudden in that series Jokic had gotten stronger and he couldn't dislodge him with that elbow. I was like "ruh oh"

Dude is listed at 280. He is listed at 6"11" without shoes. Bam aint big enough to do anything against that physically and we haven't even gotten into jokic having every hi post, mid post, low post, face up move in the book. You flip through his post moves for 5 minutes that shyt going to say you on page 238 of 921.

Jokic just kept getting better each year. It's honestly mirrors Steph progression chart

Gordon had a lot to do with that

regular for jokic wins you series'. spectacular from jokic blows you out. they dont need spectacular.

THIS CONVO WASNT EVEN
ABOUT JOKIC.
IT WAS ABOUT HIGHSMITH
SHUTTING DOWN MURRAY
IN THE 2ND HALF.

JOKIC DIDNT HAVE
TO HE SPECTACULAR BECAUSE
MURRAY WAS SPECTACULAR
IN THAT SERIES.

JOKIC DIDNT HAVE TO
SCORE IN THE 1ST HALF 2NITE
BECAUSE MURRAY HAD 24 IN THE
FIRST HALF.

JOKIC GONNA DO WHAT HE DO...

MURRAY HAS BEEN THE KEY
IN ALL OF THESE SERIES.

Miami has no chance at winning this series, but I dont see Jimmy going out with a sweep in the finals. Dude is elite when it counts, hes gonna get them atleast one win.

 

[iamduval]

It’s probably going to take Spo another 2 games for him to realize he needs to start Highsmith. Might be too late by then

Jokic giving LMA flowers

 

[CHICAGO]

It’s probably going to take Spo another 2 games for him to realize he needs to start Highsmith. Might be too late by then
