Kelly about to show Jokic what a real international star looks like.

Denver had a 3-game losing streak prior to the A/S break. It was clear they just needed/wanted the time off. They’ve come back on fire with an 8-1 record and that loss was in OT to Phoenix. In the majority of those wins, they throttled the opponent.

I don’t expect any of their starters to play in the 4th. This one will get ugly quick.

I agree with Shaq, nobody is beating these guys in a 7-game series.

I expect RJ and Bruce Brown to play. Raps are doing the same ethical/flexible tank they did in 2021, playing or sitting our better players depending on the strength of the competition. The league rewarded us with a top four pick last time.

Gonna get curb stomped, one way or another. May as well play the actual NBA players tonight.

Random but does anyone else think Bruce brown is not really injured? I feel like we’re holding him out cause we know what we’re doing with him in the offseason - picking up option or imo trading him cause he doesn’t fit. His injury seems kinda made up to me.

Funny you say that because I'm totally getting the Lowry/Tampa "injury" vibes where he basically admitted he wasn't injured when asked about it (not in so many words, but his response spoke volumes).

Yup agreed. I think Bruce Brown's demeanor and effort on the court is only hurting his value and they know it.

I'd call it a 'must lose' game, but c'mon, it's more of an 'automatic lose' game.
