Series Thread: 3) Warriors vs 6) Nuggets

[fightinfunbags]

Without Jokic the Nuggets are likely a bottom 5 team in the league this year due to no Murray and MPJ means he is the MVP because he carried them to a 6 seed. Without Embiid the Sixers probably still make the playoffs. You tell me who’s more valuable there.

Sorry @bksballer89 said I can’t use this thread to talk about Embiid.

 

[fightinfunbags]

The overreaction to home teams doing what they suppposed to do in game 1 will always confuse me.

It would be a tremendous feat for the Nuggets to push this series to 5 games. If you remember correctly, just a few weeks ago when the narrative was Jokic is the MVP, it was bolstered with the idea that Will Barton Aaron Gordon and Bones Hyland are essentially the special Olympics basketball team. You can’t lobby or politick to win series in the NBA playoffs.

Obviously you're going to keep doing the thing you've done for years, predict doom at every step for 'your team' then be super happy when you're wrong and claim insight when you're 'right'. But you have to pick your spots better. Don't pick the series they are heavily favored. Wait for round 2, they really do have a good chance of losing to Memphis and an even better one losing to the Suns. That's when you pull this weak fan crap.

You're welcome.

lol

Yep, when he does this crap it's like Nick Saban talking about what a threat Middle Tennessee State is.

Jamal Murray fully cleared but still don't want to play. Trade him asap

Holy moly. Yeah like you said Nuggets gotta get rid of him.

No excuses to not get back on the court. Very bad look for him.

Their only hope is to trade him to the Lakers for Westbrook.

 

[Stakesarehigh]

I Can see both sides....its a tough injury to recover from and I dont know that his presence this late would factor enough to give them a big lift

Denver might have to throw in a first to get LA to take that head case.

And you keep doing what you always do; play the fool. You do it well

Another whimpering surrender from you. Very on brand.

Didn't you learn your lesson when Bama Grad humiliated you last time you tried that "surrender" nonsense?

 

[bksballer89]

Barton came to play yet again. Nuggets need Gordon to step the fuck up. This is why they are paying you the big bucks

 

[bksballer89]

Cousins been so good for Denver

 

[bksballer89]

Tnt just said it again about Murray. If he wants to comeback, he could

[bksballer89]

Repeat of game 1

 

[Mecca]

Damn, Boogie should have just taken the flagrant foul.

Ffs, Poole..... Lmao

 

[stanford the manford]

lotta good teams, warriors are really deep for the 1st time all season

Wtf was up with these two?

Looked more like Barton escalated something and Boogie walked away.

...I'm sure it wasn't quietly though.

 

[Mecca]

Draymond fouled him like 4 times on that play....lol

I don't blame Jokic for taking the early shower.

He's not getting much help.

Dubs hold serve.
Up 2-0 in the series.
Game 3 in Denver on Thursday.
