Would have much rather faced the Wolves, but whatevs. Gotta go through the best to be the best.

The NBA wants a NY vs Minny finals over a NY vs OKC one.

The Wolves fans on this board would definitely want that, hoping the Wolves could somehow upset the Knicks :lol: ....but I think they're an easier matchup for us than OKC.

OKC is very dangerous and just looks all-round better than the Wolves....I'd rather not face them with the type of whistle we get when Silver is cooking in DraftKings mode ......

I think Minny is more of a difficult opponent for OKC than Denver is, and the Nuggs were one game away from eliminating them. And I would actually be happy for Randle if he won a ring.

I can't believe Caruso is holding Jokic like nothing. Caruso is a great defender but this is an MVP we are talking about here.

Im an unabashed starpucker but im gonna go on record and say hard pass on giannis.

His game is not going to age well and I dont think he compliments Brunson well. Let him go out west or rot with the nyets. We're good.


Look ....
There are very few I would trade for the top 4 of this team but if Giannis somehow tried to push his way here, I am trading KAT and McBrides matching salary in a sec. Its Giannis and he is an absolutely elite 2 way big who can guard 2-5 on switches. It would make our switch defense elite.

Not for nothing but ESPN’s winner predictor is stupid. In that G6 in Detroit they had us with a 10 point lead in the 4th and a 90% chance to win. They have Denver with only a 2% chance of winning this game. No. It’s not high but it’s not 2%.

Had it at 2% down 20 with about 8 minutes to go … now maybe it’s less than 5%, but not at 8 in the 3rd

Most of these Denver turnovers are so unforced.
