Simmons is an excellent passer holy cow
a slave stood behind the conqueror holding a golden crown, and whispering in his ear a warning: that all glory is fleeting

Simmons is still scared to shoot a point blank shot at the rim

I'm glad I am no longer an official. They got that all wrong and the Clippers got screwed.

Illegal screen by Christian Brunn. Mistakes are hurting the Nuggets right now.

See Batum is the difference defensively and on the glass.

He'd be a starter making $25-$30M a year rather than a journeyman role player if he had any semblance of an offensive skillset. That's how good of a defender he is.


He came in as a super fast PG prospect with slick handles. I don't see any resemblance of that player from Providence.

Man, Nuggets are sloppy as ****. What is Braun thinking?

There’s dozens of players that are great defensively but have zero offensive game. Guys like Thabo Sefolosha, Andre Roberson, Ryan Dunn, DJJ, Thompson twins etc.

Nuggets are going to lose. Clippers just have better players overall. They can’t get the lead back
