Nikola Jokic's facial hair seems like some sort of shaving accident.

Man if Denver beats the clippers tuesday this may be the easiest road to the finals lebron has ever had.

Hot take that I have no actual evidence making, just saying, it would be a giant let down.

16 point lead to a curb stomping in a half. Dat motivation.

No green font needed. Just mocking people for ragging on stoic Stevens and preferring fiery coaches like Doc and Nurse.

Guys, there's only so much a coach can do. In the end, it's still up to the players.

Tied with Westbrook. Good thing they’re teammates now!

If Doc loses this series it would be the third time he has blown a 3-1 lead.

So is Pringles going to coach the process? Thoughts? We’ve never seen him with a big man, right?

Well in round 1 Lakers got to play a Portland team that eventually lost Lillard to injury and was gassed after having to give everything just to make the playoffs. They finished them in 4-1. Then OKC vs HOU went 7 so the Lakers got almost a full week off before playing a now exhausted HOU team who looked like they just gave up. They finished that series 4-1. Now because LAC vs DEN has gone seven they will get almost another full week before playing whoever wins this one, and that team will inevitably be exhausted as well. Its very fortuitous that 35 year old Lebron James keeps getting week long breaks and playing exhausted opponents.

I mean while it is likely it is LA vs. LA, shouldn't you wait until it's official? lol

Never heard this excuse with the Hospital Celtics two years ago. Didn't hear it this year with our top 6 guys missing 70 games. Our players barely even mentioned Hayward during the series vs. Toronto.

I hate to say it but a hallmark of Doc RIvers teams is giving up big leads.

Keep in mind the Nuggets are the third seed in the west. They get talked about at times as if they were the 8th or something.

They were a heavy favorite the minute they locked in the AD trade....only thing stopping them was the clippers and you see how that’s going

Beating Lebron and AD for the title will be so god damn sweet. Especially after all of the lame ass stuff with AD and Boston last year.
