May 2, 20196 yr It's a fun series. Jokic is unbelievably skilled but the dude needs to get in better shape. He's out of position a ton on defense, especially transition defense.
May 2, 20196 yr I think it’s been a pretty compelling series so far. Both teams will get run by GSW though.
May 4, 20196 yr I know y’all don’t care but everyone should be watching this series. It’s been good games and good basketball. And the Nugs are always fun to watch. They are just different than any other team because of Jokic and his incredibly unique skill set.
May 4, 20196 yr GS will sweep Denver and no game will be less than 7 points. Portland will beat GS at least once. I haven't watched a Nug game in years and can only ID Joker and Millsap the veteran. I have no idea about any of their other plays. They are the Bucks of the west. I sort of expect TR Dunn and Fat Lever to check into the game at any moment. Joker the best passing big (front court) since Larry Bird. Edited May 4, 20196 yr by NowThis
May 4, 20196 yr and then right back with some great defense from Lillard on the next possession. Tied again.
May 4, 20196 yr wow. ref threw the ball right to him. unreal. Yep. That was the worst jump ever. I have no real rooting interest here, but I really like Jokic. He about the only Denver player I like, but I really like him. /no homo

He about the only Denver player I like, but I really like him. /no homo I've no idea how anyone defends Denver's pick-and-roll/pick-and-pop game. It's one of the best things I've seen for the past decade. Seems like they can always get a good look out of it. Might not always fall, but it's there.

Seems like they can always get a good look out of it. Might not always fall, but it's there. Not just that but they run cutters on cutters after the dribble handoff. It’s so uncommon in the modern game. Combine all that with their ability to leave two bigs on the court because of Jokic’s offensive versatility and Millsap’s defensive versatility and they are a tough tough team. If they can add another 3 and D wing, and Porter is any good, this team could be elite for a few years
May 4, 20196 yr That’s a call that never gets made without super slo-mo. That never gets called in the old days. It makes me wonder how many times in years past the wrong call was actually made.
May 4, 20196 yr I hate those calls. Technically it touches Murray last but it’s nit like it hits his leg. Of course it’s touching his hand last, he’s dribbling.

It makes me wonder how many times in years past the wrong call was actually made. I guess that’s what I’m really trying to say. It’s such a recent phenomenon that it seems weird. Almost like missed tags in baseball.

It makes me wonder how many times in years past the wrong call was actually made. i know of 1 call in the 1986 Finals and one in the 1993 playoffs HOU vs. SEA that would have been overturned and changed the game.

It's understood that if the ball is knocked out of bounds by the defense, the offense retains possession, even if 25% of the time it imperceptibly rolls off of the ball handler's pinky.
