Dude powell ran right in front of him out of nowhere. It wasn't even a fist he was flailing his hands.

That never happens if he doesn't overreact. Harden shoved him lightly and he blows his lid. lol

this whole thing started because Harden got mad because of a standard foul lol.

Zu should have received a negative T there for being peace maker

I mean it is it LA, the same place Will Smith slapped somebody then got awarded and a standing ovation 10 minutes later

Table the game and this LA swipe. I always found it weird how much people cheered Will Smith for slapping Rock.

We all know if the sizes are reversed no chance in hell Smith slaps him. And if for some reason he did he would have got his ass beat on national TV.

Hero for Denver at the end there was Zubac. Him keeping Gordon away from Harden kept him in the game.

The inability of the Nugget guards to get by anyone without a screen is just killing their offense. They can barely dribble against the Clippers perimeter defense, much less get any dangerous penetration. Murray dribbling into contested midrange jumpers is painful.

And Harden's 'shove' incidentally grazed Gordon's face. By your standard that's a punch.

At least be consistent in your irrationality

The issue with trying to trade Jamal is none of the playoff teams want him. Denver will have to wait and see who loses out on lottery and see if they can dump him if they know a team plans to tank for Boozer jr or something. Honestly, someone like CJ McCollum would be great for them. He is way smarter than Murray and can create his own shot. He plays zero defense, but even with that he'd be a big upgrade for Nuggets

Jamal needs to be VASTLY better.

Yes and they have to get defensive rebounds and defend the three.

Sweetwater Clifton has to be the dopest name you could have.

Sounds like a sophisticated pimp.

It's mind boggling how bad of a job they've done.

Gordon at PF was inspired. And I give them credit for it. He's an excellent fit for Jokic but everything else is trash.

Contra what people say on this board Murray isn't anything special. MPJ's contract is horrific. The bench is full of scrubs. And their owner is cheap as hell.

Only thing I've ever seen worse than this with an ATG is KG and Minnesota. They at least had the excuse that they lost all those draft picks for something that happens all the time.

This Denver team is legit 25 wins without Jokic.

KCP out -> Westbrook and some draft picks is all they've done this year. Murray looks like he regressed, MPJ I haven't noticed on the team. Theyre really lucky the Nico thing blew up, these guys wasted a Jokic year.

Who wins?
