"You Can See the Light Years a Mile High" - Nuggets (#6) vs. Warriors (#3) West 1st Round Thread

[Regular_P]

Trae is just a lot better than Jokic offensively. Trae biggest flaw is, he's just a below average open court player but that don't mean shyt in the playoffs as it does in the RS.

Trae getting slept on when he's the best in the game offensively. Nothing like him. Every offensive possession, he puts maximum pressure on your defense. Jokic is RS elite. A lot of the shyt he do is because you don't have time to gameplan around you. The problem playing against Trae is like Reggie Miller, he has time to gameplan against you. To me, it was never close. I know Jokic deserved MVP this year but he's flawed playoffs wise. I don't think Murray or Porter Jr is the answer either.

This can't be life.

He's the only one who's been capable of producing consistent offense in this game for Denver: scoring and playmaking. He hasn't been at his best (which is mostly down to Dray's defense), but to say he's been a "big reason" for them being in a hole is disingenuous.

THERES 2 SIDES OF THE BALL GILBERT.

HES BEEN TRASH ON DEFENSE
AND LAZY ON THE GLASS.

BOOGIE HAS HAD MORE
IMPACT IN HIS LIMITED TIME
BEFORE GETTING TOSSED.

[#1 pick]

this is a funny take cause they did this same shyt to embiid when they would cut to him and he's sweating gallons

This shyt happened last year and against Portland. The bubble shouldn't count. That shyt ain't got no travel, fans, and shyt.

Scott Foster has ref’ed every game 1 playoff game for golden state since 2015

 

[Squirrel from Meteor Man]

Is it any surprise?

The Nuggets are a lottery team. Jokic literally dragged this trash ass squad to 50 wins, and you still have nxggas on here who believe he doesn't deserve MVP.

Didn’t even wait for the final buzzer to go off to throw up this BS excuse

Good thing the MVP played tonight or they’d be down 30 instead of 20

You smart dumb nxgga.

All the Nuggets have been trash on defense. At least, Jokic is producing on offense. The support cast isn't doing shyt on either end.

Mark Jones really said "Spirit Bomb" on Nat'l Television

POOLE PARTY

 

[SCORCH]

Poole couldn't have wished for a better playoff debut. Unreal performance.

I hate fans with zero Basketball IQ and don't watch the NBA as much as I do. Shut the fukk up when someone who's knows what they are talking about is talking.

 

[havoc]

Poole dropped the bomb on the Nuggets

 

[Doctor Doom]

Watching Murray-less Nuggets

Like what even is the point, we know how this dance ends.

 

[Ironman]

one of these days, a player will swing on a ref

It's overdue somebody has to take one for the team. It shouldn't be allowed to catch 2 Ts just like that so quickly It's the playoffs

 

[nairdas]

Damn, did he just call that a Spirit Bomb?

14 year old me would have never thought DBZ would become pop culture.
