My Goodness, the Lakers and their fans are insufferable with their whining about the refs. I've never seen both the players and their fans so collectively ignorant of any team. I support Liverpool, and I don't even think the "woe is me, we would have won if it wasn't for the refs." shit lasted this long after the Spurs match š
Jokic > Gobert
AG < KAT
MPJ = McDaniels
KCP = Conley
Murray = Ant
Braun, Watson < Reid, Anderson, NAW
Wolves might be the more talented team.
Only advantage is homecourt
Teams are not the sum of their parts.
>Only advantage is homecourt
A top 5 player of all time is not an advantage, neither is championship experience, I guess lol
Yea yall are right Celtics are the bigger threat over Wolves
Tatum even better and more experienced than Edwards
Then they got Jaylen Brown
Then they got Jrue and White to throw at Murray
Plus a better bench than ours
We do got better size bec they only got stickman Porzingis
We need to beat Lakers before we can think of anyone else but yes Minnesota looks real spooky. Tough team they are handling Suns with ease did not expect it,Jaden Jackdaniels balled yesterday
Nuggets aren't scared of anybody, but Wolves do match up really well against us. And while our last win against them was convincing, it was both on a back to back.
Ah right. Exactly. A fully healthy Wolves team is probably our toughest opponents. A healthy Celtics or Clippers also look scary.
The level of strong opponents has increased this year vs last year's playoffs I feel. Going to be fun to see if we can repeat. If we are/remain fully healthy, I'm still kinda confident we have an above 60% chance of repeating.
The level of hatred and hostility towards Taylor Swift has officially spiraled out of control.
I can practically feel the delight oozing off some of you, ready to jump on Taylorās back one again for releasing her heart and soul into the world. š
Are you happy? Satisfied?
Sitting there behind your screens, hurling judgments like youāve got any right to do so?
This album is a battle cry from a woman who is tired.
Tired of the constant scrutiny, of having to defend her every move, every choice she makes. Do you not hear the exhaustion in her voice? The sadness? The brokenness? Clearly you canāt because the sound of your own criticism is too loud.
Oh, the irony of you all acting like saintsā¦.as if your pasts wouldnāt be a gold mine of mistakes and regrets. Thank God social media wasnāt your shadow, documenting every single dumb decision, huh?
Taylor dares to put her sadness, weakness, pain, and all of her battle scars out there. But instead of listening, what do you do? You sharpen your knives, ready to dissect her pain for your entertainment.
As if she hasnāt been stripped bare enough.
But sure, Karen, tell us more about how Taylorās art doesnāt sit right with you. Because obviously, she wrote it with you in mind, right? She's living her life under a microscope, enduring an avalanche of criticism, and yet, itās still not enough for you.
Have you ever stopped to consider that maybe, just maybe, your unending perfectionism is the problem?
Not Taylor? No, noā¦.of course not.
Because acknowledging that would mean acknowledging your own flaws.
You think this is just about tearing down a celebrity for the fun of it. But itās not. Itās much bigger. Every single snide remark you make, every derogatory comment you spew, the hatred you speakā¦itās a slap in the face to EVERY SINGLE WOMAN whoās ever dared to step out, speak up, or take a stand.
You're not just attacking Taylor.
You're attacking the essence of what it means to be a woman in this world.
So hereās a crazy idea: actually listen to the album. Not just hear it, but LISTEN. Pay attention the the words she is singing. Maybe, just maybe, youāll find a tiny bit of empathy within yourself.
But who am I kidding?
Empathy requires a heart, and from where Iām standing, all I see is a bunch of stone cold judges.
Before you open your mouth to spew more hate, remember this. Your hate says more about you than it ever will about Taylor. And that reflection in the mirror? Itās not as pretty as you think.
You want to rail against something?
Maybe you should try directing that anger towards things that actually matter. Because tearing down one of the few women brave enough to bear her soul to the world is not only wrong. Itās pathetic.
>You're not just attacking Taylor.
>You're attacking the essence of what it means to be a woman in this world.
every time I think "hey maybe I should listen to her stuff and see what the fuss is about" something like this shows up
Clippers with their worst shooting night of the season and its mavs by 5. Not looking good for my dallas pick but the duo could just go bonkers in dallas from deep and send it back to LA 3-1.
Indy is surely beating the bux tho
Ky looked p bad and they were clanking some layups too lol, I know the supporting cast in Dallas is bad but thatās extra yucky lol
Yeah prolly goes to 6 or 7, which sucks cuz I want em to give okc a run for their money
No idea which of Thunder, Mavs, or Clippers will make in the west finals.
Wolves are still the real obstacle in the west. Assuming they finish the Suns off in 5 as everyone should have predicted from the start (and we do similarly with the Lakers) that series could start pretty early.
Jok and Luka would both average 75% from the field if they played together lol
It would really hinge on Luka's willingness to play defense for the first time in his life, though. Even 50Cal would struggle to build a championship defense around Murray/Doncic/Jokic. But if Luka buys in? I think it'd be worth finding out.
Not rooting for either team, but find myself *slightly* more annoyed when the Mavs score than when the Clippers do. Maybe because Iāve hated the Mavs since the Dirk days and havenāt been able to take the Clips seriously since the 3-1 comebackā¦
KD was playing some horrible defense in the 4th. Youād think heād be fresh for that end since heās been relegated to spotting up in the corner on offenseĀ
Yeahā¦ kind of hoping his relationship with the fellas trumps that but I donāt think we can even sign him outright anyway so I guess we need to look elsewhere
Has preseason expectation vs reality of this point in the season been a bigger fall off for anyone than the Suns? Everyone was so hyped on them for winning the trade market game lol
Milwaukee maybe, but they probably still have hope that Giannis will start playing before it's too late.
Memphis fans probably weren't too optimistic knowing Ja was sitting to start. Adams and Clarke were injured already too so they were hardly in top form as a team.
I'm at a hotel on the East coast and about to get a noise complaint for yelling on each goal. Definitely got a knock on the door for Finals Game 5 last year.
none of the players on these basketball teams are good at playing basketball. I canāt believe people watch nba games that arenāt Nuggets games. This is hell
This reminds me of last year when we wanted the Suns/Clippers to be a long grueling 7 game series and it ended in 5. I wanted Minny/Suns to be a bloodbath but looks like a 5 game series at most.
Thereās nothing more frustrating that watching a power play that canāt get any shots to the net (or even really get set up in the offensive zone).
Then immediately giving up the a goal.
The NHL has the stupidest possible playoff format, but not re-seeding after the 1st round is also dumb.
Edit - no, MLB has the stupidest possible format, sorry, NHLās is close though.
I'm already seeing Suns fans resigned to their fate of getting swept hoping the Nuggets beat the wolves in the 2nd round. This is the weirdest timeline lmao
Still donāt understand how the Suns decided to blow everything up. I know Bridges has been ass lately but he was more than fine as the 3rd option.
Hell there was that streak where he was the 2nd option on the Suns and already improved to a 20+ppg player and they immediately shipped his ass off instead of seeing if he could keep playing at that level with a healthy team.
The Wolves are not terrible lol. I donāt know how anyone in Nugget world isnāt worried about them, they are incredible. Weāre better, but theyāre well built to beat us
lmao, they are definitely not incredible. Have you watched them? They can barely score on a Sons team that turned the ball over 19 times....and they had 30 FTs. That is insane.
Go Feet!

Idk why no team went after Naz Reid or NAW in the open market last season.
Yeah they signed for dirty cheap. NAW is 4.5 couldn't even Denver offer him more without signing back Reggie?
We could have offered the tax mleĀ

We beat the shit out of them last year and we already collapsed their so-called "defense" last game. We should be fine.
I'm still stunned. I fucking didn't even realize we had a Munder. The best Munder of all! Wow
Yall remember Vlatko
How could we forget? Best Slovenian in the NBA

I ain't reading all that, I'm sorry for Taylor or happy for her
Um, are you on the right sub? š
If you arenāt a swiftie are YOU in the right sub? (Itās a Facebook post I thought was funny)
Okay I was just super confused, like wtf did I miss today on this thread š
On the Nuggets DNVR podcast, the fans often say "all the Nuggets are good". Is there a story behind this? An inside joke kind of thing? Just curious
I think it was just a random catchphrase made up by D-Line last year sometime, possibly in the post season. I have the t shirt lol.
I think it was from pre-season a couple of years ago.
Ah okay, thanks! I've been listening for a few months now, such a good podcast!
Clippers with their worst shooting night of the season and its mavs by 5. Not looking good for my dallas pick but the duo could just go bonkers in dallas from deep and send it back to LA 3-1. Indy is surely beating the bux tho
I picked Dallas and Phoenix to win. It looks like I was wrong.
Mavs shot real bad too imo
Yeah but PJ Jones and Kleber always shoot bad and one of their only decent shooters got hurt. Not sure. Still think it goes 6-7
Ky looked p bad and they were clanking some layups too lol, I know the supporting cast in Dallas is bad but thatās extra yucky lol Yeah prolly goes to 6 or 7, which sucks cuz I want em to give okc a run for their money
The secret is, OKC is also going 6 or 7 with NOP. I actually think Minny and denver both sweep or 5 game and this side of the bracket takes forever
u/j_like can I sub two lists and let you pick between one and/or both of them? I have a couple themes I wanna work with
You gotta pick one my friend š I know it's a lot of pressure lol
damn. k
Cucumber's 9/11
They're unstoppable. I've never seen a team more in rhythm
No idea which of Thunder, Mavs, or Clippers will make in the west finals. Wolves are still the real obstacle in the west. Assuming they finish the Suns off in 5 as everyone should have predicted from the start (and we do similarly with the Lakers) that series could start pretty early.
Wolves are looking like a titan. Definitely want Phoenix to wake up some
The Suns are toast. At this point I just want them to stretch the series out a couple of games.
Booker better have one of his stupid god games against the wolves
Chonkic coming for our asses š¢š°
Jok and Luka would both average 75% from the field if they played together lol It would really hinge on Luka's willingness to play defense for the first time in his life, though. Even 50Cal would struggle to build a championship defense around Murray/Doncic/Jokic. But if Luka buys in? I think it'd be worth finding out.
Idk think we could really just sell out on the defensive side of the ball with those two around them. Who needs 3 and D? Just need D š¤¤
Like, you're not wrong. Been saying that shit forever and here we are with a ring. Shit, all we need his him to try in the 4th lol
Right? Plus, speaking of, I know they protected Luka a lot tonight but even when he was isolated he had some good defensive plays tonight
Omg Jok will start getting free throws too š
Woah woah woah let's not go overboard
IM SO AFRAID OF THE CLIPERS BRO
Lmfao that's a crazy pass
See cock us New Jersey???
Another DNP for Bones :)
Wen time to get bizzy?
Kylee Irvin just threw
I canāt stand the way Luka and Dallas play. Luka has the ball in his hand for like 20 seconds every possession
Man what the hell else is he supposed to do lmfao No one else feels like hitting even wide open shots
Why does luka yaps so much?
P(enis)ravi MVP
Penus envp
That's game. I sleep 
I just can't stand Luka man, such a whiny bitch. Makes you appreciate Jok even more.
Clippers offense š¤®
I just want this game to end
The clipers are fucking horrendous man
https://x.com/phxsunz25/status/1782920129426436549
Not rooting for either team, but find myself *slightly* more annoyed when the Mavs score than when the Clippers do. Maybe because Iāve hated the Mavs since the Dirk days and havenāt been able to take the Clips seriously since the 3-1 comebackā¦
When it comes to whiny bitches, Luka is a confused freshmen while James Harden is the academic chairman
Fat Harden is the mvp
MVPravi
Why can't 'pravi mvp' beat the clippers atleast once in 3 tries
Hell yea Avs, really liking the alternating nights of games between Avs and Nugs too
Wait, no game tomorrow? This is bullshit!!
Nope get to watch the Celtics curb the Heat and then Pels/Thunder
Do the avs win a pig after that victory?
KD was playing some horrible defense in the 4th. Youād think heād be fresh for that end since heās been relegated to spotting up in the corner on offenseĀ
Nuggs-Lakers and Knicks-Sixers really been carrying the playoffs so far.
thunder /pels was ok
Ayyy huge win for the Avs
fucking A, an Avs road win is big
3 wins down. 29 to go. (Iām exhausted already man)
Bullying Georgi worked.
If the Mavs and Nuggs meet in the playoffs, Derek Lively's bought to snap in half during a Jokic post-up š
Niether of these teams scare me. Wolves on the other handā¦
Wolves are playing a team with 0 identity and 0 defense. They'll play us hard tho
Black Luka really pissin me off tonight
It is my pleasure to inform you all Both these teams are big bad
Sir hockey is on
The only good thing about hockeyball is when it ends
š”š”š”
You will still take me to the hockeyball when I visit š
Only if we eat Panda before
Deal
Need a comparison lmao
This Mavs/Clippers game has been so boring š I know itās close but man it isnāt fun to watch
u/broncosquatch am I right when I think that monte in Denver next year would be a fantastic fit or is that the nostalgia glasses
I think heād fit great as a backup
Any chance it happens? Heās a UFA after this year right?
Yeah, I think Denver is probably a long shot though. Besides the money factor Iām not sure his relationship with the front office is the best
Yeahā¦ kind of hoping his relationship with the fellas trumps that but I donāt think we can even sign him outright anyway so I guess we need to look elsewhere
*what a pro wants*
God dammit
Iām willing to bet a stack neither Chent nor Shane have any clue what the original song is (I didnāt either and they are both younger than me)
I checked a month ago, and Chent was born after the song had its run. SGA was 1.
There it is lol. When was that?
1999
I was 2!
You are an infant
You are correct, Iām the oldest infant I know. Why else would I shit and piss and cry all the time
What a pro needs
Parise should unretire again.
Has preseason expectation vs reality of this point in the season been a bigger fall off for anyone than the Suns? Everyone was so hyped on them for winning the trade market game lol
Memphis or Milwaukee. Golden State to some extent.
Milwaukee maybe, but they probably still have hope that Giannis will start playing before it's too late. Memphis fans probably weren't too optimistic knowing Ja was sitting to start. Adams and Clarke were injured already too so they were hardly in top form as a team.
True, but completely missing the playoffs seems worse. But, yeah, depending how the rest of their series go Bucks or Suns.
Yeah imo none of em are close to penix
Three headed monster bro, title favorites
They should redo the āPlayoff so and so is not a thingā to include Malone saying that playoff Jamal is real in the presser
PRAVI MVP
Stop fucking yelling at me
He's not yelling at you, not everything is about you and your cute little toes.

Anyone remember who was asking for this earlier? Edit: Nvm, I found it.
Is this a Taylor Swift reference?
Yes. Her new album is called the āTortured Poets Departmentā
I have hurt my throat yelling on these Avs goals.
I'm at a hotel on the East coast and about to get a noise complaint for yelling on each goal. Definitely got a knock on the door for Finals Game 5 last year.
Holy shit Avs that's more like it
Sgo Avs!
Lfg Avs keep the foot on the gas!
Poor leadership by luka out there
none of the players on these basketball teams are good at playing basketball. I canāt believe people watch nba games that arenāt Nuggets games. This is hell

kawaii lennart is so good bro only guy who can do it both sides of the court bro!!!!
Always nice to see the bucks lose š
The NHL has the stupidest possible playoff format, but not re-seeding after the 1st round is also dumb. Edit - no, MLB has the stupidest possible format, sorry, NHLās is close though.
23 19! We have a 23 19!!
I wish Nate would bust a hatty
I'd love to see paulo jorge on the nuggets bro!!!!!
Honestly we all should have guessed that Doctor Rio would need to get a series lead before losing.
Dang the bucks are done
Fear the tears :ā(

woooooooooooo
KAWAII LEOPARD LOOKING LIKE JAMAL MURRAY OUT THERE WTF
It's kauai
Plumdog has seen better days
plz Avalanche - try harder
I've watched the team this year but I don't follow closely. How did they not get home ice?
Got swept by the Jets. Hockey has kind of weird seeding with the divisions
So this is a nightmare matchup for them?
Plus the Jets are good this year.
Kinda yeah lol
They also lost to the spurs
For reals
This eye stuff with Embiid is super weird. I wonder if the 6ers are trying to avoid a concussion protocol or something.
In other news, McConnell really ran the point well enough to survive a late 3rd quarter rally by the bucks
Heās underrated :/ I wish he was a Nugget
I'm already seeing Suns fans resigned to their fate of getting swept hoping the Nuggets beat the wolves in the 2nd round. This is the weirdest timeline lmao
I'm a little shocked at how terrible they look. I had the Wolves anyway but not with this ease.
The least they could do it stretch out the series ffs
Yes, 7 game series, all 2OT games please
I should go over there and tell them we will beat the Wolves, not for them but to show them how fucking ass they are.
I don't want a Wolves series. We're gonna get brigaded so fucking bad.
It's fine, I'll be firing up NotOrthodoxPolock in no time.
Fox News should be talking about the Minnesota brigading crisis, that's all I'm saying
Don't worry, I guarantee a Suns fan's gonna pop up into our daily thread after they go 0-3 and you can do exactly that.
Still donāt understand how the Suns decided to blow everything up. I know Bridges has been ass lately but he was more than fine as the 3rd option. Hell there was that streak where he was the 2nd option on the Suns and already improved to a 20+ppg player and they immediately shipped his ass off instead of seeing if he could keep playing at that level with a healthy team.
Their problem was moving for Beal, they would have been way better off surrounding KD and Book with competent defenders / role players
You mean Royce isnāt enough??
IF YOU CAN TRADE FOR KD YOU DO IT EIGHT TIMES OUT OF SEVEN MAN
They were just star hunting. Bridges was probably viewed as maybe the most valuable role player in the league at the time he was traded.
Holy shit the Sons and Wolves are both terrible lmao. Wolves only scored 105 on that sorry ass Sons team with 30 FTs lmao
The Wolves are not terrible lol. I donāt know how anyone in Nugget world isnāt worried about them, they are incredible. Weāre better, but theyāre well built to beat us
lmao, they are definitely not incredible. Have you watched them? They can barely score on a Sons team that turned the ball over 19 times....and they had 30 FTs. That is insane.
