OKC we back! Coach Daig gave Shai a chance to win in regulation. Had to let the others guys finish the game. Great win.

Yea looking back Joker just missed a month so I understand why he wanted to kill Dort.

Nuggets went 4-7 in feb. 7 losses came to all playoff teams. 3 wins against non playoff teams and the 1 sole win was against boston who were on a back to back.

But come Monday, the media will still call them contenders.

The Western conference meat riding is crazy.

McCain feels almost underutilized. Like, if you had to rank their best backup guards, would it not be

1. Mitchell
2. Wallace
3. McCain

4. Caruso
5. Wiggins
6. Joe

You take the first three in bold and JWill as the backup big... that group + their starters is a 9-man playoff rotation. Their guard play could end up infinitely better than what it was last year. i.e. That bullshyt Caruso threw up at the end of regulation, Mitchell, McCain, or JDubb are finishing that easily.

The "Jokic is this scary guy nobody wants to see in the playoffs" narrative, while the Nuggets are 22nd in defense... is kinda funny.

Not as an indictment against him (on offense) but more so if they can't stop anyone on the other end of the court, they're never going to be that scary to a team like Minnesota, Houston, or San Antonio

And yea, guys are injured.. but it's like i said a month into the season, everybody dealing with injuries and no guarantee nyggas wouldn't still be injured once the playoffs start

Best team in the league getting McCain for free is so unfair, Morey fatass could have traded him to Washington

Morey is a hack

Detroit You bytch Ass nikka
Refs telling OKC to chill that shyt out...they lucky the league comes down hard on fighting cause they been asking for some shyt to happen for a min
Patrick Stewart just got 7 games for running off the bench, wrestling a nikka and throwing punches. I wish y'all would stop saying this lol. Human pencil is not out here suspending nikkas like David Stern did years ago.

I don't think anybody has been suspended for 10 games since Silver became the commissioner outside of PED use and dirty drug tests.

Denver prolly shoulda kept Porter...at least he can give you games where he goes unconscious
I've seen and heard too much revisionist history about the MPJ/Cam trade recently. Yes, Cam has been ass this season but MPJ was ass for most of their playoff runs besides that first round series against LA in 2024 where he was unconscious.

People are getting way too wrapped up in MPJ putting up stats on a tanking team that isn't playing for anything. Dude is on a max contract that handcuffed Denver's ability to build out their roster. The money matters with the hard cap and Cam making almost half allowed the Nuggets to get Val, Bruce Brown and THJ, plus pay Braun (not a great contract) and gives them a chance to re-up Watson.
