Look at how Claxton affects any shot. Love to see it

No foul there, please stop complaining Jokic.

Isn't that illegal by jokic anyway?

MrDollarBills · Post #164 » by **MrDollarBills** » Sun May 9, 2021 4:27 am

wait a minute, how is it that Jokic was able to gain possession on that jump ball?

Butthurt Nuggets fans. Shut up.

I think Green touched it last before Jokic grabbed the jumpball.

Best win of the season. Glad I stuck it out.

I hope we can use this game to turn the corner defensively.

Insane win. wow.

Great win here. Refs let it play out both ways. Winning physical games like this is what it'll come down to come playoffs.

King: KD
Knight: Blake
Jester: Shamet (the new TLC)

Defense showed up in the second half esp the 4th q.

Hello Brooklyn · Post #177 » by **Hello Brooklyn** » Sun May 9, 2021 4:32 am

Takeways from the game:

No more Mike James

Claxton needs 30+ minutes

Shamet/Harris need to get it together or stop playing (moreso Shamet)

Alize and Tyler Johnson should get some minutes

We are capable of playing defense. Just need to do it more.

Fair point :lol:

Honestly at least TLC plays solid defense. Shamet is useless.

They won, but man, somehow with KD and Kyrie on the floor, the offensive system is an abomination. It seems like nobody moves, KD and Kyrie always take these super difficult shots (which they usually hit anyway, especially KD) and it just looks so labored. It felt like it wasn't like that before (even without Harden) but I think Shamet and Joe Harris have just been kinda bad.

Our bench offense is bad when Harris/Shamet cannot hit anything.

Still I don't think offense was really ever a problem this game. It was all defense.

But to be fair, the Nuggets were hitting a ton of insane shots they had no business hitting.
