It really shouldn't considering its Klay guarding him. Nuggets just don't have a clue on what to do and aren't good enough to make Gstate come out of it.

That's the Problem with inconsistency.

You miss 3-4 Open Threes and suddenly instead of being 13-15 up a 10 Point lead vaporizes just like that.

Or realize he's a 6'8 freak athlete and the game would be a lot easier if he just attacked the rim over and over again.

But he floats on the perimeter way too often and takes jumpers way too much.

Yeah, I think Gordon needs to go at it and stop settling for 3s. Also, the Warriors are closing out really hard. It's okay to pump fake, get the defender to fly by, and force a rotation.

Jarret Allen isn’t winning you anything. Garland won’t show up in the playoffs. Mobley is a glorified dunk man. Mitchell has some experience but is a liability on defense. To me, the Cavs are a treadmill team.

My god Gordon you have Otto Porter Jr on you. You can blow by him with ease. Stop being a jump shooter.

No, it isn't.

Out of all reasonable MVP candidates, Jokic has the least amount of help.



Giannis has more help than Jokic.
Booker has more help than Jokic.
Only Embiid and Luka has less help than Jokic. Please don't bring up Harden as Embiid's "help". He's worse than Aaron Gordon now.

Cousins can't do that defensively: Either sell our or drop back. You can't be in between.

This Curry guy might be pretty good. Crazy that Kerr had this hidden gem on his bench to start the series.

Gordon's been a dog all game. His best game in the series.

Golden State had a golden opportunity at the end of the 3rd. But they really screwed the pooch the last few minutes.
