Nuggets aren't valuing the basketball at all.

Not a good game for Derrick Jones, Jr. so far.

It doesn't refute the point. He didn't have three fouls when Harden was making uncontested layups in the first quarter.


So you wanted him to pick up one before he got his three? people commenting don't know anything about the game ffs. Jok contests as much as he can without fouling, it's been the team defensive plan for years. It's on the POA defender and rotations after that. That's THE defensive game plan for Denver and for a good reason, which is keeping Jok on the floor


Well, if the Clippers are going to have zero resistance at the rim the entire series, you can't be shocked if the Nuggets lose. Contesting at the rim, doesn't mean fouling.


You're still not getting it bro

Is Lue saving Kawhi for the 4th? Seems like he hasn't played much

Can’t believe AG is only 29. Feels like he’s been around longer and kind of reached a point in his career where he was moved to a more exact role that most see when they are of an advanced age

In the draft where Sixers ended up with Embiid and Saric, I was hoping we would get Wiggins and Gordon lol
