Well, here's hoping Denver won't make it to the Finals. Jokic will be injured in the playoffs...mark my words..saw it in my dreams.

Well this officially ends any kind of Tatum MVP talk so at least that won’t be a distraction for the balance of the regular season

Tatum not only missed that three he missed a big free throw too. **** doesn’t have the it factor to be the lead guy for the championship. He’s been coming up very small against the best teams. Why tf are you a ghost out there?? It’s your **** team stop being a **** pussy man.

Yawn who cares. They’re not unbeatable. They played a fraudulent team that didn’t shoot it well.

Embiid and Tatum
You cannot train mental toughness.Drew handling can only train skills.. Tatum.
Has extraordinary skills but his mental toughness is not where it needs to be.. The real question is will it ever get there..
ROAD TO REPEAT !!!!

Sometimes we need a reality check to refocus after dominating so hard lately, it's really only us and Denver anyway so it's a good measuring stick to see what we need to do to get over the hump.
We had our reality check against the Cavs.
Tatum must have missed that one!
Absolutely not.
This is the reality check.

Mazzula took two timeouts at the end and both plays he got were basically the same. A contested Brown three and a contested White three from the exact same spot. Lmao

We can get 1 game from them in the finals, or maybe 2, if we are lucky. If JM can stay healthy, no one can beat them in 7.

I know people hate brown but Tatum is usually the bigger fraud in these games.

Probably. but despite Tatum’s horrific game, we’re still right at it in the end and at their home floor.
Quite a few of them had horrific game and we were still right in it, not worried it will be an amazing series just be healthy that's all I ask for.
It’s 50/50 when we face them in the finals. Much concerned about Tatum having nothing in the bag, if he can’t shoot. Jokic is just on a different level. He can easily pound his way inside, and even make that pass for an easy dunk

Yup. THIS is the one lol. Not the countless other times we lost in the same manner against top teams (including, you know, this very Nuggets team a few months ago).

Every player can take something from this. Jaylen Brown was outstanding tonight but missing free throws is a killer in the playoffs. Brown has 20 games to correct this

I don’t care anymore about Tatum playing well against mid teams, I need to see it against the best teams. The standard and expectations is championship or bust and right now Tatum fails spectacular against the very best

Top team in the league with the best record, and majority of our players laid an egg tonight.... and we still nearly won, in Denver.
Not sure what the big deal is, but I kind of expected a lot of posters to come out and want to blow up the team and start all over, so you do you mate.

Really poor game from Tatum. Hopefully he wakes up and goes ballistic in the playoffs.

You do know you're one of the posters who blasts this team constantly no matter what and no one listens or cares what you think? Right?
