Watching other teams take care of business at home is depressing

Nuggets are the most likeable team left so I'm rooting for them to win it all.

Replace your coach with a Kerr-level or Spo-level coach then maybe. Have to win one first lol.

Nuggets did what a championship team does - and what we have not been doing.

Murray was spectacular in Q4.

Kinda sad seeing how every team left in the playoffs are undefeated at home besides the Celtics who are 4-4….all these other teams just play freely even in clutch situations like Murray and porter jr letting it fly while the Celtics look like it’s life or death in each offense set late in close games.

Michael Malone rides Jokic pretty much the entire second half knowing how important it is to protect home court meanwhile our coach Joe had Tatum in the bench during the 4th quarter of a close game for….Payton Pritchard

I agree. No ego’s there with the nuggets. They want to win every game. Our guys talks a lot, complains a lot, but is mentally soft. Plus it helps to have a really good fit between their stars. A do it all big man, and a really good shooting/scoring point guard. Tatum and brown needs to take turns on offense, not play off each other.

Exactly! We all know JT needs to heat up a little to get going. He should be playing the entire 4th, especially when we are down. Heck, even when we have a lead. That’s why you call timeouts, to rest players, not bury them in the bench. When JT did came back, no plays were run through him, and when he did get the ball, all he wants to do was jack off 3’s. No plays were actually run. Just pass the ball on top to JT, and let him try to chuck off 3’s, or try to drive in traffic.
