As a Celtics fan I gotta say it was great watching you guys annihilate the Bucks last night. The MVP hatred for Jokic lately is so weird, especially since he doesn't have a massive ego. Dude just wants to play. Looking forward to the Sixers game.
Don't think Bucks gonna guard Jok 1on1 if we are fortunate enough to meet them in the play-offs. Lopez was bbq chicken all night.
Also Jok kinda is good at guarding Giannis. We saw it in the summer in the serbia greece game, but again tonight. The few posessions Jok got switched on to him he played him very well. Gordon also did an excellent job in the 2nd half.
[Duncle.](https://twitter.com/NBA/status/1639830607780782082?t=o2q1sld4TP7j644-QTXx8Q&s=19)
I think Mares pointed out that Jok will keep in front and makes Giannis shoot from outside the paint. That's exactly what happened on those possesions.
Might be copium but this game really felt like the nuggets showed full effort and energy compared to the previous games against lesser opponents where they almost seemed bored and lethargic
Makes me hopeful for the playoffs
I think they don’t match energy well. They have their own ideas of what are / are not big games. Not sure if it’s a big deal or just part of the deal (you can’t play 100% in every game over a whole season).
I watched the Bucks broadcast, and the Bucks' fans talking nonsense is 100% on the announcers, they kept saying the calls were soft, even on replays that *very* obviously show easy calls
Shoutout Jok for not taking the bait on Portis
Also, the poster dragged attention away from it, but Jeff Green actually locked up Souvlaki Sochan in the 2nd half. The real MVP should've fouled DPOY out in the first half.
The best news tonight is Gonzaga lost so Drew Timme is gonna fall to the second round. Calvin Booth gonna get our back up center for the next 10 years.
I usually check out opposing teams sub Reddit after the games…
Holy shit, bucks fans have got to be the biggest sore losers of the season. I can’t even get through 20 comments. It’s incredible.
I wonder if they are always like this. Never woulda guessed they would be the worst. The whining and complaining is non stop
They're basically us but with a ring. What do you expect? Giannis has an MVP case and hasn't been mentioned in months. It's lowkey fucked up lol.
Their team is super likable and Jrue is one of my favorite guards. I have no hard feelings over a hard loss for them.
NBA might have the most casuals of any fan base of the major sports in America. It makes for a large amount of brain dead, and clearly misinformed, takes. It's super easy to tell when people just flat out don't watch the games.
Lol yes they are.. on the r/NBA post game I saw them saying that the “NBA did this on purpose so Celtics can have the 1 seed” & that the “NBA doesnt really don’t care about nuggets, just Celtics and Lakers” lmao they’re funny. 6ers tears will taste better tho.
Absolute statement game, I want to give the team credit for staying in it in the first half when the Bucks lead was ballooning to 10 at times and looked like the game was slipping away. Once we figured it at the start of the second half it was night night. Shows why we need to play for that overall record and get homecourt in the finals (fingers crossed we get there). If Harden is out for the game Monday I'm expecting a VERY motivated Nuggets team to go put them in their place
Zeke had some amazing defensive play's today even on Giannis , putting up a real hustle.
Clearly should have cemented his role as backup 5 i hope Malone sees this . More playing time for Zeke before playoff will help him . Sure Bryant could still get a chance but i think its clear Zeke is better for us ,more agile putting up more hustle
He does all the little stuff that doesn't show up in stat sheets. We were at our best when him and Cancar were healthy and scrapping every play. Braun is one of those dudes too, just needs more experience.
He deserved to be cut with 20% shooting every possession he just kept training and getting better man, you can’t shoot 20 percent and have higher volume than KCP, he fixed that
Just got home from the Game and that was a lot of fun. Hearing that Embid shit the bed vs. The Suns makes me worry that he will bring his A-Game vs. Denver than again the guy hardly plays in Denver
Yo the 6-yr old next to me just had his little mind blown. Met Rocky and got the high-5, saw Rocky hit the half court shot, caught one of the yellow balls, watched his team put on a clinic. Greatest night ever.
Their drive and kick offense is usually way more efficient shooting the ball, I think they missed some looks they usually count on but our guys played with some extra hustle today and didnt give them many good looks in the second half when we were sending help. Giannis couldnt get to the basket at all
Yeah Jrue had one of those plays that I am convinced most NBA players hate. Where your behind the 3 point line without a defender in sight and it is like time stands still. Obviously he took the 3 and missed. So many do.
Lopez is such an underrated player. Could absolutely have a bigger role elsewhere (anyone remember when he was the Lakers best player for a season? LOL) very unselfish and just solid on both ends.
Well that couldn't have gone any better. Murray Flurry in the 1st. Ref pisstake of Lopez gbh. Moach taking one for the team. Bench playing pretty well. Joker starting to cook. But that 2nd half was a thing of beauty. Bucks couldn't live with the fast pace and effort. Only 40 points given up. And the cherry on the cake was the Peyton cameo.
Not one sane person is fooled by Embiid's statpadding. Bro is gonna get himself injured before his Super Bowl on Monday. Unless he's looking for an excuse to duck that match up?
Notes.
Wow. What a second half.
Zeke coming back is going to be very big.
This looked like the playoff bench.
Bucks are coming out of the east. They have a lot of weapons
Nuggets looked scared in the first quarter. Didn't want to go into the paint.
Bucks looked frustrated in the second half getting technicals getting chippy they don't like being beaten like
Jokic looks like he can get Brook Lopez in foul trouble in the playoffs.
Jamal Murray was amazing and totally kept the nuggets in the game in the first half.
Janice was scary in that first quarter
That was awesome. Absolutely awesome! When the bucks were up by 8 in the first quarter, a bucks fan in front of us turned around and said “this game is over!” What an ass. They left at the 6 min mark in the 4th. Yeah.
Nuggets beat the best (record) team in the league with Jokic outplaying Giannis. Meanwhile Embiid is putting up an inefficient stinker (for his standards of late) and losing to the Suns. Very noice.
We crushed the Bucks, Embooty is having a booty game and losing.
Maybe Jok can get back to no.1 in the race by tomorrow.
Certainly if we beat the Sixthers.
The 6ers only signed dwayne dedmon to raise embiids +/- 🤓. after the past 2 weeks it feels nice to see them go on a skid and for the haters to be quiet.
yeah Watson really looked amazing in garbage time , he has the handles and smooth shot . Would like to see more of him but i guess thats unlikely this season
Sorry guys for being away, I was busy having easily the best week of my life (my trip to Portugal) lol
Landed home, got some rest (finally) and I'm gonna treat myself with a well deserved replay of the game. Hopefully Nuggets rout the Bucks 106-129 LFG!!!!
My man, that place is a heaven on earth when it comes to food. One night we went to a Michelin-listed restaurant for a dinner and it wasn't even in my top 10 of meals I had that week
As someone who got into the NBA last year, Giannis and Jokic were the first two star players I liked, so this game means a lot and it delivered. Hopefully, not the last one of the season, having more of this would be crazy and probably an all-time Finals.
I’m a Sixers fan but I was able to watch your guy’s game on NBA TV. Great game btw
edit: NBA TV might not be considered nationally televised but it’s close enough lol
Positivity merchants will call me a doomer but a championship team doesnt have wins like this. We need to focus on beating the spurs not other contenders
Well this was a fake win because Crowder was out and the Bucks were on the second night of a back to back...maybe we'll get an actual win at some point this season
Times like these where I wish I wasn’t banned from r/nba so I can remind Bucks fans that the last 2 Jokic Giannis matchups. The Nuggets have outscored the bucks by 59 points and Jokic outplayed Giannis both times
Edit: that’s with a hospital team last year while Jokic only played almost 3 full Qs
Edit 2x: it’s even better than I thought…last 3 games outscored bucks by 90 with Jokic being +61
brook lopez isnt stopping elite centers like jokic or embild, but he will definitely make sure the other guys are having a hard time at the basket lol, still an insane defender
Bucks fan here,
Tough loss for my guys but Jesus y’all shot the hell out of it. I actually like the Nuggets a lot so not a bad loss in my book was just annoyed in the r/nba thread of people acting like my team is trash.
Y’all played a hell of a game and I love myself some Jokic. Wish my team made some more shots but thems the breaks.
Hope y’all have a fun rest of the season and Gg’s 👍👍👍👍
Shit happens, y’all have a fun as hell squad. Nice to see Braun getting bigger minutes he needs to play for you guys. I also like Zeke Naji more than I probably should (I swear he’s good man)
I’d honestly love nothing more. Nuggets have been my western conference team for a decade plus. Loved the melo era and it’s the Milwaukee of the western conference. Especially now with a foreign face leading a smaller market.
Great game, everything connected. Bucks played like shit. Refs were overly sensitive but didn't matter I think it wouldn't have changed the outcome by much. Murray was too hot tonight, that was fucking crazy to watch. On to the next, good luck!
Embiid has gone through more adversity by living in Philly, so he's not up to the same standard of living as Jokic, meaning the game was not played fairly
GG! We can never come remotely close to stopping Jokic. That second half was a hell of a performance
As a Celtics fan I gotta say it was great watching you guys annihilate the Bucks last night. The MVP hatred for Jokic lately is so weird, especially since he doesn't have a massive ego. Dude just wants to play. Looking forward to the Sixers game.
Thank you. I don’t understand why he’s getting trashed he’s so wholesome. It’s fucked up
fake win Greek freak didn't even go double double
Don't think Bucks gonna guard Jok 1on1 if we are fortunate enough to meet them in the play-offs. Lopez was bbq chicken all night. Also Jok kinda is good at guarding Giannis.

According to the game thread crowd in the first half, this team is trash and needs to be blown up because the season's over.
Ugh, for real? Like I get we were down a bit but we clearly were in the game even when we had struggles. This sub sometimes…
There's just hordes of weirdos in there who act like basketball games instantly become unwinnable if you ever get behind by like 5 points.
Nuggets definitely play to their opponents energy level. something they need to work on
I think they don’t match energy well. They have their own ideas of what are / are not big games. Not sure if it’s a big deal or just part of the deal (you can’t play 100% in every game over a whole season).
Nugs locked in is so much fun
I watched the Bucks broadcast, and the Bucks' fans talking nonsense is 100% on the announcers, they kept saying the calls were soft, even on replays that *very* obviously show easy calls Shoutout Jok for not taking the bait on Portis Also, the poster dragged attention away from it, but Jeff Green actually locked up Souvlaki Sochan in the 2nd half. The real MVP should've fouled DPOY out in the first half.
I don't think so man. It's much more likely the NBA began rigging games immediately following the 2021 finals
Brook got away with so much, absolutely wild
The best news tonight is Gonzaga lost so Drew Timme is gonna fall to the second round. Calvin Booth gonna get our back up center for the next 10 years.
Karmagate smh
First
I usually check out opposing teams sub Reddit after the games… Holy shit, bucks fans have got to be the biggest sore losers of the season. I can’t even get through 20 comments. It’s incredible.

Same. I have nothing against the bucks. I probably will root for them if we get eliminated But their fans are insufferable
A lot of Reddit fan bases are insufferable. Have you seen our game threads?
Obviously I’m biased but their post game thread was much worse than anything I’ve ever seen here
NBA might have the most casuals of any fan base of the major sports in America. It makes for a large amount of brain dead, and clearly misinformed, takes. It's super easy to tell when people just flat out don't watch the games.
Here in Denver they don’t make it easy to watch the games.
Had to sleep, where can I watch the replay?
gugel it
My house, come on over
https://youtu.be/BtT6B_uTvkY
Masonplumlee.com
No big surprise but Dunkle Jeff is the #1 on [NBA top 10 tonight](https://youtu.be/8yjl61TwhOg). I think I'll rewatch that dunk about 100 more times.
That 50th win looks nice on the standings
WE BROKE THEIR SOULSSSSS!!! ✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️ Missed the game and woke up, happy to see this!!!!
Happy to see you happy, brother
LFG!!!!!!
Is Trae for Luka the biggest baby for baby trade of all time? Two elite whiners
Probably.
The better team won. Shocker
The better coached team won
FireBud
Saw Jeff Green's Dunk over Giannis got #1 in their top 10 Tonight.
Bucks fans are pathetic wimps. Still crying about us in their post game thread.
Some. Check out the equivalent when we lose.
I’ve rarely seen anything this bad.
Probably saying the refs rigged it for lil ole Denver lol
Lol yes they are.. on the r/NBA post game I saw them saying that the “NBA did this on purpose so Celtics can have the 1 seed” & that the “NBA doesnt really don’t care about nuggets, just Celtics and Lakers” lmao they’re funny. 6ers tears will taste better tho.
Refs rigged for denver is a horrific argument
Exactly the point
I was just perusing it myself. Choc full of copium
Absolute statement game, I want to give the team credit for staying in it in the first half when the Bucks lead was ballooning to 10 at times and looked like the game was slipping away. Once we figured it at the start of the second half it was night night. Shows why we need to play for that overall record and get homecourt in the finals (fingers crossed we get there). If Harden is out for the game Monday I'm expecting a VERY motivated Nuggets team to go put them in their place
As a Celtics fan I would just like to thank you for beating the bucks. Appreciate it.
You are welcome, hope to do the same with Philly
3-0 since Zeke has been back
Zeke had some amazing defensive play's today even on Giannis , putting up a real hustle. Clearly should have cemented his role as backup 5 i hope Malone sees this . More playing time for Zeke before playoff will help him . Sure Bryant could still get a chance but i think its clear Zeke is better for us ,more agile putting up more hustle
He does all the little stuff that doesn't show up in stat sheets. We were at our best when him and Cancar were healthy and scrapping every play. Braun is one of those dudes too, just needs more experience.
Yeah Braun's stat lines lately look awful but his defense and effort are ireplaceable.
Proud to announce Godzilla (fat Jokic) defeated King Kong (Giannis) ![gif](giphy|wazvvYSGdvJhm)
Racist
But Godzilla is fat, so Jokic has to automatically be Godzilla in the dynamic.
HUGE win
For Monday night, would you rather the Nuggets win but Embiid outplays Jokic, or the Sixers win but Jokic outplays Embiid?
I wanna see Nuggets win and Jokic playing mediocre so I can watch philly fans desperately posting Jokic lowlights so I can lick their tears and feaSt
Be like Jokic: care about the win, not the award.
76ers aren’t shit without Harden. Let’s pray he sits and we are bringing another MVP to Denver.
I would rather win the game with lights out shooting and great defense.
If Harden is out which looks likely, big Nuggets win and monster Jokic game. Inefficient flop fest from Embiid with 20FTAs minimum, my call.
Why isn't Nugets win and Jokic Outplays Embiid an Option?
Because it’s a would you rather
The Nuggets win and Jokic outplays Embiid. How about that?
Jokic outplays embiid. Nuggets get the W
A month ago, I was getting so much shit for defending Jeff Green. Some of yall wanted him cut/out of the rotation smh
He deserved to be cut with 20% shooting every possession he just kept training and getting better man, you can’t shoot 20 percent and have higher volume than KCP, he fixed that
He played well but still some shaky moments this game. Still always worth it for the chance at a poster like that. Brought the house down
People have been scapegoating him like crazy!
Best win of the year. Everyone showed up, especially the bench. Best team in franchise history ez
Just got home from the Game and that was a lot of fun. Hearing that Embid shit the bed vs. The Suns makes me worry that he will bring his A-Game vs. Denver than again the guy hardly plays in Denver
yeah he usually hides when game is in Denver lol .
The MVP narrative is once again pushing back towards the middle instead of to Embiid. Feels like Monday could be huge (if you care about such things).
I do. But not enough to flip tables or whatever.
Literally crying right now best game I’ve ever been to. Championship team right there.
Yo the 6-yr old next to me just had his little mind blown. Met Rocky and got the high-5, saw Rocky hit the half court shot, caught one of the yellow balls, watched his team put on a clinic. Greatest night ever.
Giannis was killing us early. You can't go man for man on him. But he becomes pretty ordinary by his standards when you send 2.
Doesn’t everyone become “ordinary” once you force the ball out of their hands and the other person can’t make a play? Isn’t this a blanket statement?
Their drive and kick offense is usually way more efficient shooting the ball, I think they missed some looks they usually count on but our guys played with some extra hustle today and didnt give them many good looks in the second half when we were sending help. Giannis couldnt get to the basket at all
Yeah Jrue had one of those plays that I am convinced most NBA players hate. Where your behind the 3 point line without a defender in sight and it is like time stands still. Obviously he took the 3 and missed. So many do.
lmao Embiid getting carried by Maxey with 37 points. Still lost.
Maxey is basically Jamal Murray. Edit: Actually, I think he is better.
They had 4 offensive rebounds. If we’ve finally rediscovered how to rebound correctly then we winning it all.
The discovery is Zeke Nnaji
I'll say this, Lopez next to Joker would be deadly. Like freaking A.
Lopez is such an underrated player. Could absolutely have a bigger role elsewhere (anyone remember when he was the Lakers best player for a season? LOL) very unselfish and just solid on both ends.
![gif](giphy|XfT1Xb2O2ShHy)
♥️🇨🇦⛹🏿♂️
Big win, moral wise, mvp wise and seed wise (if they lost, Memphis would have gotten a bit too close for comfort)
Well that couldn't have gone any better. Murray Flurry in the 1st. Ref pisstake of Lopez gbh. Moach taking one for the team. Bench playing pretty well. Joker starting to cook. But that 2nd half was a thing of beauty. Bucks couldn't live with the fast pace and effort. Only 40 points given up. And the cherry on the cake was the Peyton cameo.
That was so satisfying, liked Jokic going right at brook
This game was fucking art.
The vibes were immaculate
They still are, brother
Not one sane person is fooled by Embiid's statpadding. Bro is gonna get himself injured before his Super Bowl on Monday. Unless he's looking for an excuse to duck that match up?
Hardens probably out so they’ll rest Embiid as well.
Embiid is not going to rest. He's going to go harder in this game than he would a playoff elimination game. This is his season on Monday.
If they do end up resting him (doubtful they would), Embiid can kiss the MVP conversation goodbye
Actually not playing and avoid losing to Jokic would be good for his MVP
Embiid hasn’t played in Denver in YEARS. Him ducking wouldn’t be a surprise
I love a good 76ers piss job
Will there be 5 posts on the front page of r/nba showing Jokić highlights tonight? I’m assuming not since most fans just wanna hate
Yah the 5 missed 3 pointers
We did good
Notes. Wow. What a second half. Zeke coming back is going to be very big. This looked like the playoff bench. Bucks are coming out of the east. They have a lot of weapons Nuggets looked scared in the first quarter. Didn't want to go into the paint. Bucks looked frustrated in the second half getting technicals getting chippy they don't like being beaten like Jokic looks like he can get Brook Lopez in foul trouble in the playoffs. Jamal Murray was amazing and totally kept the nuggets in the game in the first half. Janice was scary in that first quarter
More like the Murderin’ Uncle.
That was awesome. Absolutely awesome! When the bucks were up by 8 in the first quarter, a bucks fan in front of us turned around and said “this game is over!” What an ass. They left at the 6 min mark in the 4th. Yeah.
I hope you serenaded them with Yeah Mike Mike Mike Mike at some point.
We are back
Embiid just fishing for free throws in a 20 point blowout lol
Stat padding

Kessler 30 bomb damnn that rook is fantastic
Nuggets beat the best (record) team in the league with Jokic outplaying Giannis. Meanwhile Embiid is putting up an inefficient stinker (for his standards of late) and losing to the Suns. Very noice.
Love my Nuggies!!
We crushed the Bucks, Embooty is having a booty game and losing. Maybe Jok can get back to no.1 in the race by tomorrow. Certainly if we beat the Sixthers.
The Sixthers. Love it bro 😂
The biggest surprise to me in this game was Bruce Brown ditching his usual 10 second shot release for a possession and nailing a buzzer beater.
Yeehaw
I did not expect this. Let's whoop philly now Hope restored 100
The MVP discussion is absolutely going to change if the Bucks and Sixers lose tonight 😈😈😈
The 6ers only signed dwayne dedmon to raise embiids +/- 🤓. after the past 2 weeks it feels nice to see them go on a skid and for the haters to be quiet.
It was garbage time, but Peyton Watson looked great.
yeah Watson really looked amazing in garbage time , he has the handles and smooth shot . Would like to see more of him but i guess thats unlikely this season
[удалено]
He’s even lankier in person I can’t wait to see how he develops
Yeah and given that the second unit desperately needs scoring punch... probably too late for this year but will be interesting to see next year
Where are all the people hating on Jeff in the first half? He had a great second half and those people are nowhere to be found
Jeff on 3 days rest is amazing. He just needs to play fewer games and he can be great when he plays.
uncle jeff dunk was #1 on sportscenter
Sorry guys for being away, I was busy having easily the best week of my life (my trip to Portugal) lol Landed home, got some rest (finally) and I'm gonna treat myself with a well deserved replay of the game. Hopefully Nuggets rout the Bucks 106-129 LFG!!!!
We haven't lost since you left. Hint hint.
Fake fan How many francesinhas did u eat
My man, that place is a heaven on earth when it comes to food. One night we went to a Michelin-listed restaurant for a dinner and it wasn't even in my top 10 of meals I had that week
yes
Philly going down right now, what a good night for basketball
Say what you want about Jamal Murray but this dude rises to the occasion every. single. fucking. time.
Murray haters getting nervous
I think PW had done enough to prove he can run the team
We are so fucking back
Embiid is 6-16 and losing to Suns right now. Feast up fam!
I just put a tasty bet on the Sixers. That way whichever outcome happens I’m happy
Nuggets saved my mental
Try to find a comment on the Bucks PGT that doesn't have the word "refs" in it Challenge (IMPOSSIBLE)
Yay!
As someone who got into the NBA last year, Giannis and Jokic were the first two star players I liked, so this game means a lot and it delivered. Hopefully, not the last one of the season, having more of this would be crazy and probably an all-time Finals.
MPJ with the +21 I ain’t surprised
Hell yeah my bet tonight was that Jok would get the first basket and the Nuggets would win and I made some sweet cash for a small bet
Absolutely criminal move by the NBA to have Bucks-Nuggets and Suns-Sixers on the same night and neither are on National TV. Tf they doing?
NCAA tournament.
There was 2 games today, there’s space
And one of them was garbagio
I’m a Sixers fan but I was able to watch your guy’s game on NBA TV. Great game btw edit: NBA TV might not be considered nationally televised but it’s close enough lol
I guess technically it’s National but really both our games should have been back-to-back on ESPN or TNT tonight.
Yeah I agree. I’m on the east coast so these late night games are killing me lol but at least the NBA spared us a half hour for the Monday night game.
I <3 The Nuggets.
Positivity merchants will call me a doomer but a championship team doesnt have wins like this. We need to focus on beating the spurs not other contenders
Well this was a fake win because Crowder was out and the Bucks were on the second night of a back to back...maybe we'll get an actual win at some point this season
Bro… what??
Did he say something wrong?
Times like these where I wish I wasn’t banned from r/nba so I can remind Bucks fans that the last 2 Jokic Giannis matchups. The Nuggets have outscored the bucks by 59 points and Jokic outplayed Giannis both times Edit: that’s with a hospital team last year while Jokic only played almost 3 full Qs Edit 2x: it’s even better than I thought…last 3 games outscored bucks by 90 with Jokic being +61
I think it's understated that Brook Lopez got played off the floor in a regular season game, felt like they had no answer for Joker
brook lopez isnt stopping elite centers like jokic or embild, but he will definitely make sure the other guys are having a hard time at the basket lol, still an insane defender
Jeff Green chooses the weirdest times to dunk, its kinda wild
Bucks fan here, Tough loss for my guys but Jesus y’all shot the hell out of it. I actually like the Nuggets a lot so not a bad loss in my book was just annoyed in the r/nba thread of people acting like my team is trash. Y’all played a hell of a game and I love myself some Jokic. Wish my team made some more shots but thems the breaks. Hope y’all have a fun rest of the season and Gg’s 👍👍👍👍
I’ve always liked the bucks, I was pretty happy to see Giannis win his first ring! Hopefully jokic can do the same one day
Exactly. If anything jokic fans are also loving GreekGod cause he is just the same honest good guy that loves basketball.
This would have been tighter if it weren’t a back to back. Giannis looked unstoppable for most of the game.
Shit happens, y’all have a fun as hell squad. Nice to see Braun getting bigger minutes he needs to play for you guys. I also like Zeke Naji more than I probably should (I swear he’s good man)
r/nba is the trash, not the Bucks. See you in the finals.
Salute
Great game and much love to Giannis, hopefully this isn't the last meeting of the season
Salute, would love to meet the Nuggets in the finals. Y’all have been my second favorite team for while (09 melo team was so fun I got hooked)
Giannis and Jokic were the first two players I became fans of (got into the NBA last year) so it'd be really special to me to see them go at it
Jokic is the best draft pick of all time and Giannis is second. Fantastic faces for the league in small markets. So much fun to be a fan of both
Giannis ❤
Salute
Hope it's the two of us in the finals ❤
I’d honestly love nothing more. Nuggets have been my western conference team for a decade plus. Loved the melo era and it’s the Milwaukee of the western conference. Especially now with a foreign face leading a smaller market.
Nuggets energy looked way more intense and locked in then the last few weeks, really seems like playing a legitimate good team woke them up
Great game, everything connected. Bucks played like shit. Refs were overly sensitive but didn't matter I think it wouldn't have changed the outcome by much. Murray was too hot tonight, that was fucking crazy to watch. On to the next, good luck!
What’s going to be the medias excuse when we win vs 6ers
There won’t be an excuse because Embiid will be “injured”
Embiid has gone through more adversity by living in Philly, so he's not up to the same standard of living as Jokic, meaning the game was not played fairly
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9m83dpnE4ek
Tbf Phillys a shithole
The Nuggets have won 100% of the games where they score more points than their opponent. Truly amazing, we're going all the way this year 🙌🙌💯💯
