I concede Jokic as the best player in the game right now, but Bron’s ability to play up to that level at will might be the most impressive ability of any player in the league

umm... :lol: how you feel now.

Bro wtf.

You either play perfect basketball for 30 minutes or forget about it. How old is this guy, how much longer do we have to deal with this? Unbelievable.

Glad I did not go to sleep on time, basketball symphony

I'm confused. Why is there no game thread in the Lakers section and an empty one in the Nuggets section? :-?

It just occurred to me that maybe most of those fans meet somewhere else. That's probably it.

The Nuggets just know how to win like on paper Suns/Clippers/Boston and some other teams are better but man they just got poise/belief and heart even when the other team completely outplays them they somehow wear them down and win it's insane. That was literally as good DLo/Bron/Davis could play and Jokic was super passive most the game and Murray only showed up in the 4th.

Maxey shat in his pants at the end. Learning experience


He totally did and Brunson was off all game except that shot at the end. They will learn. Tyler does that and we are losing his house on Facebook marketplace.

I had Lakers in 6 but after these comebacks I think it's over. And if Lakers can't beat them I don't see another team that can handle them. In the east are we sleeping on Cleveland?

He'd be nice, no doubt. I wonder if the Pelicans would like Herro. Zion loves Tyler, I remember him mentioning that he's the most underrated player in the draft in their draft year.

Not sure CJ and Herro is a great fit from a backcourt perspective though. Doesn't necessarily fix the Herb Jones/Trey Murphy dynamic either unless Herro bought into super sub mode, or they bring one of Jones/Murphy off the bench again.

Would love Ingram here though.

Rozier
Robinson
Butler
Ingram
Adebayo

Is a tough 5. Hell, you could go with Jacquez over Rozier and just go big too with Point Butler.

A player of Ingrams ilk keeps Boston honest when matching up on Brown or Tatum.

Pure shooting in the rotation around Zion seems like a great thing

If I was projecting a Heat starting lineup after this hypo trade it would probably be this:

Rozier
Butler
Ingram
Jovic
Adebayo
