Usually i would be pumped for Celtics Nuggets game, but since its an early start i am not since i expect 25-30pt win for Celtics.
Nuggets are awfull in early games as they are in 2+ days rest games.
I cant understand how a team can be 11-1 in back2back games and 2-5 in 2+day rest games. Im not sure what is the score in the "early start" games but i dont think they won any...At least its not 2 day rest


EDIT: Westbrook is starting instead of Naji, it will be 30+

Their last game for denver was friday in Detroit so one day of rest for them...

I just wrote that they are bad in early games as much as they are in 2+ day rest games. Didnt say today is one of those.

9 games and maybe like 1.5 are interesting.

They should be allowed to flex the entire season and start the playoffs.

[Castle Black]

First Spurs home game in a month and we get OKC... lovely.

NOT WESTBROOK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[BigGargamel]

Does Aaron Gordon ever play anymore? Guy is getting on my nerves.

[AleksandarN]

Jokic looks hurt. Limping down the court. Not a good sign.

[Mavrelous]

Clean block...

[Special_Puppy]

Does Aaron Gordon ever play anymore? Guy is getting on my nerves.

He’s missed 24 games this season and hadn’t been very effective when he has played. Huge reason for the Nuggets not looking like contenders this year

[The High Cyde]

Westys confidence around the rim is completely shot, damn

[benhillboy]

I simply cannot watch the Celtics man. The 26 attempts that come from Horford, Tatum, Holiday, and Brown on pedestrian efficiency just makes my skin crawl. When they brick, corral the loose ball/ rebound and launch again (and usually make) I can’t deal with it.

If the Spurs dynasty played an artful game these Celtics are kindergarten drawings. And not even smart or creative kindergarteners.

[Wolfgang630]

Who is helping joker out?

[Mavrelous]

Brown shouldn't be allowed to hold Jokic and push him like this...

[Sharkboy242]

Its just wild to me how much contact the refs allow on Jokic. Whenever they let Jokic get guarded like this we lose.
