Hell of a game. Bam's an absolute stud. Herro's a baller. Feel like he's gonna be a guy that's too good to just let go but not quite worth a max.

Murray with the confidence to do fancy behind the back passes in a game 7?

If I'm AD even if I win the Finals I'm headed to Miami. Playing for Spo and Pat just seems like the best thing any player can do if all they want is to win.

Nuggets are struggling hard with Jokic on the bench.

Murray probably wishes that quarter was a couple minutes longer, that boy was cooking like it was the first round

Denver is getting open shots. They need to hit them. Murray won't stay this hot, and won't see the rim that clearly when Zubac and PG come back.

Jokic has completely outplayed kawhi this half.

His defense has been outright good, he's created half a dozen wide open looks in addition to his usal fantastic passing, and he's scoring whenever he has a chance.

Man showed up. If his play holds up like this, win or lose, he solidifies himself as top 3 so far.

Bam is one of the most versatile defenders Ive ever seen. He can legit guard 1-5 not false narrative 1-5 defending. And his rim protection is up there with almost anyone. Beast on the glass too

I love this Heat team in general.
But in his home dwelling...the hi-top faded warrior is revered. *Smack!* The sound of his palm blocking the basketball... the sound of thousands rising, roaring... the sound of "get that sugar honey iced tea outta here!"

MTV is going to go on a long rant in this thread or on the GB if the Clippers blow 3 straight double digit leads.

Has a team ever blown 3 straight double digit leads in a playoff series?

Ad/Dwight are the worst matchup in the league for Jokic. Itd be very one sided TBH

not really seeing how lac vs lal would be a better matchup outside of name rep

Nuggets vs lakers is a much more stark constrast in styles holsitically and in terms of superstar.

Nuggets got no quit. They are a very likeable team.

Also, Jokic cannot sit many minutes this half. Plumlee was a disaster in the first half.
