Luka needs to take Jrue Holiday every time he gets switched up him one-on-one. Too big and too strong.

Not whining because we have gotten away with fouling Doncic about 4 or 5 times....while they have fouled Giannis, Hill (twice) and Lopez (twice) with no call. At least it is consistent, but you just know there will be a foul called at a crucial moment that is not even as bad as any of the ones going uncalled.


I like they’re not calling fouls. I did see a lot of no calls like you said on both sides.



I just think about games like the Superbowl where they allowed WRs and DBs to get away with defensive and offensive PI the entire game, then they called a phantom PI on the Bengals on a crucial 3rd down that basically handed the Rams the title. Just keep it consistent is all I ask.

I saw a Nuggets blowout before that news, definitely see one now.

The Nuggets play to the level of the competition: They don't blow teams out and they rarely get blown out. This will end up being a competitive game down to the wire. I hope it's a blow out but I don't see it.

Holiday has done a marvelous job since he started guarding him. I'd rather a switch on Lopez or take Matthews stright up.

The "good guy" Middleton makes no play on the ball and pushes another guy that was airborn, no bad landing this time so it got ignored

lol that contest by Powell was one of the worst, and dumbest, I've ever seen. He had no chance of coming close to that and instead he gives up a 4 point play.

Yeah it's nuts. I'm not watching Bucks rn because my C's game is on, but against BK the other night Giannis looked exactly like KD just pulling up and confidently swishing jumpers. Incredible how he keeps getting better.

Giannis looks like Lebron the way he just lowers his shoulder and runs over the defender for an easy layup.

Gotta protect his per game numbers. Not even going out there to help your team by being a decoy...
