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

You would think Gordon was wide open the way folks are reacting

Take the straight to the hoop, WTF you backing down Klay for

There was nothing alarmingly wrong with what they were doing in the first half, it's just nobody was really stepping up (Poole, Wiggins and Klay weren't doing anything on offense), they were missing open looks, and in typical Warriors' fashion were playing with their food. Poole was benched early in the 3rd, and they brought on more size, and threw different looks at Jokic and Gordon in the 4th - they essentially forced Jokic to beat them by himself. They then went to just feeding Steph and using him as a springboard to open up other guys rather than trying to balance out the offense because Klay and Poole simply didn't have it tonight.

Offff course. Tbh at this point I'd be satisfied with just two games per round from Weedplate like his game 4 the other day.

nuggets seem to be always dealing with "what if" at the end of a season...

One playoff win in two years for the back to back MVP

30, 13 and 6 against the Warriors


No real secondary or tertiary option threat to give the Nuggets a chance in the series

Greatness acknowledges greatness.

Yeah, Dray was giving him props on one of his recent podcast. Definitely a lot of respek there.

And after the game, there seemed to be a lot of friendly chatting between both teams. It was cool to see.

A lot of thoughts....

I. Wish people weren't so entrenched in the weird agenda/stan wars so we could celebrate how insane Steph is... he was scoring against soft triples and hard doubles with ease

II. Jokic looks like an elephant mixed with a goose who learned ballet. Makes zero sense what he does down low (no homo) and from the perimeter with his footwork and court vision while looking like he eats and works at Satriale's

III. Dray is a basketball savant. I never figured out why he made so many of you mad. But you're wrong. Period.

All true. Love watchin Joker play. To be that skilled with that Daddy that don't give a fukk body is
Steph just opens up so much shyt for others on offense, shyt is nuts at times.
Draymond can be a hothead clown, but his hoops IQ is GREAT. If only Pat Bev had Dray's IQ with the emotion.

IV. Bryn Forbes is in the NBA how?

I was legit saying the same thing to my homeboy. Like this little Costa Rican lookin nikka must shoot 90% when I’m not looking. Because I’ve never seen him make a shot.

I was skeptical of the joker but he did his thing in this series. No more MVPs though until he has real team playoff success

I was rooting for my Denver Nuggets but it didn't happen!
