"I used to think 3-1 leads were a tragedy" - Nuggets vs Clippers Xmas Game thread

[<<TheStandard>>]

I like this Clipper team so much better than last year's team. I love Serge over Harrell, love Zubac getting more minutes, love Kennard over Shamet, love the Batum addition & I love Lue coaching over Glenn. If the Clippers can just find a playmaking point guard, I'd be a believer.

Of course Kawhi's degenerative quad issue will always bring me pause as will PG13's disappearing act the past two post seasons but I'm a lot higher on them this season than last.

I like Jokic but Denver gotta stop running every possession through him

that is the enterity of their offense. The nuggets offense is literally jokic/Murray do something. Last year the nuggets ran the least modern offense in the nba. Malone holds the team back but because the talent is better on the team they win.

like I said opening night...Clippers look like they're play with a 2014 Spurs level of focus

Batum is their Boris Diaw.
game 1: 3pts but 6rebs 6assists
First half of game 2: 8pts, 8 rebs, 3 assists

I said it before but once Morris comes back, Ty Lue should seriously consider putting Morris, Batum, Kawhi, and PG on the floor together, with either Zubac or Ibaka at the 5. It would be their contemporary version of the Warriors death lineup where you use it sparingly but once it's out there it's hard to stop. Especially if they can continue moving the ball like they currently are.

I see ur point but they ain’t experienced that true hurt to ur heart and soul like they did. It hurt them so bad they still have finals record for points differential too cuz they beat the bricks off the heat really bad

at best they the lite version of them

 

[FooFighters]

Ty Lue calling timeouts when Doc would never...

 

[BXKingPin82]

Jokic and Luka gonna win co-MVP.

and they will rename the award to "The Brian Scalabrine Award for Roundball Excellence... Award."

Batum ain't done after all

 

[No..Money..Mo..Problems]

Somebody tell Denver you can't just leave the corner 3 wide open

 

[Controversy]

Denver needs more out of Gary Harris

 

[No..Money..Mo..Problems]
