Nuggets taking a loss to the PeliCANS. Jockitch with 26/16/18 in a loss is rough.

They honestly gave that one away after erasing 18 point lead in the second half. Braun was good tonight. Jokic made the mistake of passing too much and when shooting he shot from 3 instead of attacking the paint in the 4th quarter. Gordon needs to stop shooting from 3 altogether. Zion had a great first half and as usual he faded in the second. Jokic had a good game as always but he needs to be more selfish in the end he gives his team the best chance of winning when he scores in crucial moments. Nuggets missed like 3 3s in a row after getting the rebound 3 times. That was awful to watch.
 
Vintage James Harden

Over the course of 19 elimination games, Kobe Bryant averaged 22.3 points, 5.8 rebounds, 3.5 assists, 0.6 blocks, and 1.2 steals. He scored on 41.4% efficiency from the field, shooting threes at 28.1% efficiency on 4.7 attempts per game.

James Harden, on the other hand, has played in 23 elimination games and averaged 22.8 points, 5.3 rebounds, 5.9 assists, 0.7 blocks, and 2.3 steals. He scored on 42.1% efficiency from the field, shooting threes at 32.6% efficiency on 7.7 attempts per game.

Harden shows up big

Tonight is no different

GOAT Harden bless

Been telling ppl about his attitude since his second year with the Warriors and how that got him into trouble. His ego is even more through the roof now that he has a bigger role (and failing at it).

At this point he's not even good enough for the G league

Poole is a a little shit. Doesn't mean he deserved to get punched in the face by a much larger teammate over seem petty nonsense.

He probably should be sent to the minors to work on his game.

Kinda odd that Wiggins and Poole are stinking up the joint at the same time.

Everyone's reaction if Poole is sent to the G-League.

I miss watching Murray and Yoke play together.... Got spoiled in last year's post-season run.... they have such good chemistry together. But kind of like how Yoke was helping Murray get back into his peak prowess at the beginning of the season last year, I think Yoke is trying to get develop the bench guys and find who the next Bruce Brown is on the team. I think Yoke knows they can sleepwalk to the post season this year no problem, so playing the long game is right. And it still looks like a team that wins 90% of games at home, and 50% on the road - I still expect them to be very tough to beat come post-season if they stay healthy.

It may already be a forgone conclusion that the Nuggets repeat.

I dont disagree but in the 4th quarter Jokic needs to shoot more especially at the end. No matter the placement the Nuggets will compete for the title but finishing first is important so Denver can have home advantage until at least the final. If Denver got blown out i would have been ok with it but they came back from big deficit only to throw that win away. Pelicans barely scored in the 4th but Denver couldnt capitalize. I miss Murray too he is a great player but i feel like when its all said and done Murray will finish his career without ever making a allstar team just because he cant seem to stay healthy same for Porter. Just imagine if Denvers 2 and 3 were as durable as Jokic.

Yeah, the injury is likely to cost Murray an all star spot this year. They just play such a beautiful brand of basketball when they execute what Yoke serves up. So many highlights of his get trashed because of missed shots on brilliant set ups....he takes the horses to water and they don't drink.
 
This made me laugh while the Thunder were beating down the Dubs the other day.

The bored boy Thunder.

That finish by Kyrie just now was elite. He had 18 in the 3rd Qtr.

Mavs are the best 3rd Qtr. team in the league.

How much advertising needs to be on the jerseys? The commercial on the Thunder's jerseys looks like a sticker.
