Also going to be interesting to see how much rest Malone gives Jokic. When he's not in the game the Nuggets don't look good at all.



how much rest does a ziplock bag of mayonnaise need?

the longer this game stays close the LAC will have to start to tighten up. Up 3-1 clear favorites.

Denver playing with house money right now...and Murray having a good game too makes this interesting.

If I had to guess, he's going to try and take him out with like two minutes in the third quarter into the fourth so that he can get the TV time in between quarters. Like you said, they can't afford not to have him out there. It's game seven and they already had to come back from double digits.


Yeah that 2nd unit looked like a mess even with Murray out there with them. Clippers are going to rely on Kawhi heavy in the 2nd half and he's going to try to put them away so it's about to be an interesting 2nd half


Put it this way, Malone has been badly outcoached this series. Some of his rotations have been questionable and well lets call it like it is, Jokic makes this team run. Shamet was flailing and reaching trying to stop Murray, so an adjustment needs to be made there. When Murray is feeling it like he is now, Beverely isn't enough.


I don't know about badly outcoached. Doc hasn't exactly been good either. Jokic has abused Zubac like a pro vs a toddler and Doc is still yet to adjust

His screen/pass is literally unfair, his ability to find the cutter on doubles.

I haven't seen every minute, but what I have seen he gets beat on the substitutions game. Or perhaps it just goes to show how important Jokic is to this team when Murray isn't scoring.

Clippers are screwed. You double Jokic or Murray they'll keep moving the ball and finding open players

according to SAS the clippers have a HOF coach and 2 assistants that should be HC in the league.

How are they not outcoaching malone?
