Braun would play over Bogi.

Porter would be in San Diego. Still grateful we didn't take him, even with Jerome being a bum himself

This is going to be an interesting off-season for Nuggets.

Nuggets don't know what hit them. Thought it'd be a close game at least, i guess i am wrong. On to Game 4. LOL

Kawhi brutalizing Braun. Westbrook throwing up cabbage.

I'm shocked Clips are +3 on the glass, been giving away too many offensive rebounds still

Braun was supposed to be a stopper? BBQ chicken vs Kawhi and Harden every game.

Westbrook should retire. He’s a total liability

Game's not over, but Denver is still lucky to still be in this series by stealing game 1. Ty Lue is outcoaching whoever the hell Denver's new coach is now

Denver can't be playing Russ and serious about winning. He will win you a game and shoot you out of a few. Been there, done that.

I was skeptical that Ben Simmons would actually be willing to play every game, however, his minutes defensively have been awesome.

If they win this series, the collective basketball community need to sacrifice a goat or something to keep him healthy against OKC

Nuggets looked cooked. Have to assign Jokic some blame too he has been mid. Jokic mid combined with mid team= byebye.

That's the third I've counted so far.

Looks like I picked a solid number that's tough to pick
