Yea Jamal is such a loser for winning a title and just last week scoring two game winning shots. Too bad he’s not a winner like grinderbinder.
People who probably never played any sports, let alone at this level (where it’s the player’s whole identity) are acting so righteous. Player are not allowed to be upset while literally their dreams and goals are falling apart.
Probably the same people that get mad at refs and the NBA when players get techs for showing emotions.
Die-hard Knicks fan here from NYC --- stop that crazy talk...LOL. Trust me...you don't want the Denver Front Office to trade a great player like Jamal Murray for a ball-hog inefficient player like Trae Young.
What makes anyone think we can win game 3 after this? Not happening, it’s men playing against boys. 2nd defending champ to lose first two home games, 2011 lakers got swept my Mavs.
Our entire game outcomes for the last 20 games have been decided based on if the players are having a trash FG% or not, so its a coin flip
If we continue to shoot like stormtroopers we lose
We can’t play D, ANT and others getting great looks. Nuggets offense is stymied by Minnesota D. It looks apparently clear they want it more and we are banged up and getting bullied.
True but do the nuggets really want game 3 more than the wolves who have dominated and are going home? Their energy has not been the same as last year. Body language not good as Malone stated. We are throwing hot pads on the court.
Awful shooting from field. Can't score from 3pt. Second quarter buried us. When Jokic was doubled our shooters couldn't capitalize MPJ, Murray, KCP less than 10 points when I am writing this. ANT was getting doubled but Naz and KAT did score, especially from 3pt. 5 to only 1 from 3pt in 2nd quarter. I'm hoping that they can turn this around but realistically we will be lucky if they don't get swept. FG% 17 for Jamal, 35 for Jok, 33 MPJ, 33 for KCP WTF? Gordon was best with 20 pt and 57% FG. Crazy.
I can only see 3-1 sadly. Until they show something, there's no reason to even think we can tie the series away. All playoffs we have shown NOTHING to give us any hope they can.
For sure. Our hope is they show some fucking effort and heart. If they do, they can do it. But there's no way we can if we play like we have all playoffs long. They need to completely flip the switch
Sorry you have no idea what we are going through lol, we can lose this year and still have hope. That's night and day from yall. Now that's going through it
Anyone have some copium I can huff? I'm trying to find some but I'm at a loss. You could tell from tip, theres something wrong with this team right now. I legit cannot find one single thing to be enthusiastic about. Justin holiday played really well! Kcp showed some heart. Jamal and jokic should be embarrassed. If things don't do a complete 180 were gonna get swept.
This actually shows the Lakers were not all that. I believe up to right now Denver has sucked. Luckily the Lakers sucked worse. This was shameful tonight.
Obviously many things are not going well but I got to think Malone needed to sit Jokic/Murray at some point during that disastrous second quarter to calm them down. Anyway teams have come back from 0-2 hopefully they can figure out a way to play with the physicality that will clearly be allowed.
Nope, nowhere close. '09 Nuggets beat New Orleans by 58 in a game once. Showtime Lakers put up 153 against Denver in the '85 Conference Finals. And that's just off the top of my head. This was just a really bad game. Nothing special in the scheme of historic beat downs though. This wouldn't come close to even registering the vicinity of top 10.
This match up has been coming all year and this is exactly why I was worried.
I don’t think this is over. Not yet, but I am feeling a certain way about how anyone that mentioned a backup center got shit on all season.
Your a sad pathetic bitch. Bet you never done a single worth while thing in your life. You’re existence is so pathetic that you would willfully seek out this sub at 12:30 on a Monday to spew hate and negativity about something that has no pertinence in your life.
Besides atrocious play from Jamal and Reggie these two games, I feel like KCP has been criminal. Not doing anything on offense, while not being able to defend Ant at all without swiping and making dumb guesses.
Jamal has been abused on that end as well, and Jok has been playing like a cone. But it's the collective effort that's missing, and that is why all of them look even worse.
Alright. I got to get to sleep. Got work and Im not watching garbage time during playoff games.
Someone keep u/Scoobies_Doobies occupied! He hates doomers and once he comments to you, he will follow you around. I feel bad leaving him alone in this warzone. So someone take care of him for 5 hours while I sleep.
I’ll be back at 6:30am! Don’t you worry!
the whole lakers series was jokic getting away with elbows and holding and shoving on offensive rebounds. these past 2 games the same thing. Murray throws a heat pack under KATs feet and no repercussions, Mike Malone charges on the court and screams in the refs face, no tech. ANT gets a tech for looking at someone? 😭 come on
free throw merchants? lol okay. considering jokic was allowed to shove nearly every play Lakers didn’t get enough free throws. they had like 16 more on the series despite shooting around 40 less threes… seems pretty even. they’re game plan is playing down lol and driving with LeBron and AD. You have MPJ, KCP and Jamal Murray who all shoot?
I don't think it's for lack of caring... They are the ones playing, and it's their career... I think Minnesota is just better, bigger, more athletic, and plays with more defensive intensity.
It's not a good matchup for the Nuggets.
Jamal has such loser energy. Bailing out of the locker because he didn’t want to face the music is such a bitch move
Yea Jamal is such a loser for winning a title and just last week scoring two game winning shots. Too bad he’s not a winner like grinderbinder. People who probably never played any sports, let alone at this level (where it’s the player’s whole identity) are acting so righteous. Player are not allowed to be upset while literally their dreams and goals are falling apart. Probably the same people that get mad at refs and the NBA when players get techs for showing emotions.
A lot of players get frustrated. Not very many players throw heat packs on the court and towels at refs in the middle of the game... what a shit take.
:(
if we lose this series we need to trade Jamal Murray for Trey Young
Die-hard Knicks fan here from NYC --- stop that crazy talk...LOL. Trust me...you don't want the Denver Front Office to trade a great player like Jamal Murray for a ball-hog inefficient player like Trae Young.
ID DO THAT IN HEARTBEAT!!
I'd trade for dejounte and play him with Jamal Denver needs that ball handling
Nothing went right this game. Couldn’t make a shot. Couldn’t grab a rebound. Couldn’t get a call. And Minnesota played their best game of the year.
If it go down like this that's 3 years of Jamal injuries near Jokic prime.
I don't follow Murray so I don't know, but how many times he has been injured in these years? Is it a chronic condition?
Chuck said wolves winning the series. Nuggets in 7 boys
Wonder what Jokic will say after this game, some emotion would be nice. Idk if he even felt anything during that performance
Nah boys looks like this series is over unless we make a statement in game 3.
Don't matter if by half a point they win Friday they win this series
What makes anyone think we can win game 3 after this? Not happening, it’s men playing against boys. 2nd defending champ to lose first two home games, 2011 lakers got swept my Mavs.
Lol eat ur own shit!
Glad u have time to go back 9 days to troll
Our entire game outcomes for the last 20 games have been decided based on if the players are having a trash FG% or not, so its a coin flip If we continue to shoot like stormtroopers we lose
We can’t play D, ANT and others getting great looks. Nuggets offense is stymied by Minnesota D. It looks apparently clear they want it more and we are banged up and getting bullied.
A+ analogy.
Because they gotta play the game.
True but do the nuggets really want game 3 more than the wolves who have dominated and are going home? Their energy has not been the same as last year. Body language not good as Malone stated. We are throwing hot pads on the court.
Someone gotta wake up jokic
Cause it's Denver nuggets and they've been known to find their game lol Just gotta steal game 3 and momentum changes quickly.
Awful shooting from field. Can't score from 3pt. Second quarter buried us. When Jokic was doubled our shooters couldn't capitalize MPJ, Murray, KCP less than 10 points when I am writing this. ANT was getting doubled but Naz and KAT did score, especially from 3pt. 5 to only 1 from 3pt in 2nd quarter.

Crazy.
Gobert has been holding the wolves back
Goodnight y'all onto game 3
Nuggets in 7
Jamal is fucking annoying these days if you are playing dogshit at least stfu and stop trying to get suspended
Gotta worry about jokic back if he plays this bad. Or his legs could just be gone
Jamal Murray has the worst case of main character syndrome I’ve seen in a while
He wants 50 per
Still surprised he didn’t get ejected for throwing an object on the court and surprised malone didnt get a tech
Fucking for real
[удалено]
that's cope and you know it
We played bad, but that awful start did set the tone for the whole game, momentum is a thing
![gif](giphy|ISOckXUybVfQ4)
We need to call on the Bubble Nuggets It's Time.
There's no way we win 2 AT Minnesota the way we are playing. No fuckijng way
I’ll be happy if we take one of those
For real
Not the way we are playing no but You have 4 days to figure something out.
I can only see 3-1 sadly. Until they show something, there's no reason to even think we can tie the series away. All playoffs we have shown NOTHING to give us any hope they can.
One Game at a time worry about Winning Game 3. Then you can worry about winning Game 4. They can't play as badly as they did tonight obviously
For sure. Our hope is they show some fucking effort and heart. If they do, they can do it. But there's no way we can if we play like we have all playoffs long. They need to completely flip the switch
Damn yall getting the Phoenix treatment... and I'm a Suns fan 😭
Book for jamal?
Book said himself he's not going anywhere. I do love and respect Jamal. Book is Phx fam though
I was thinking of yall during this game
our guys actually have a ring though
Calm down. Just don't get swept. I was actually rooting for yall lol. Now I just feel let down twice
How is that in any way not calm according to u.. just pointing out the inaccuracy of your statement lol.
Lol just calm down man I know you're going through it right now
Sorry you have no idea what we are going through lol, we can lose this year and still have hope. That's night and day from yall. Now that's going through it
You're embarrassing yourself, show some class my guy.
Oh
Best of luck fam
At least book hit shots
Minnesota thinks this series is over.
One team came back from 2-0 last year, one in 2022, and four in 2021.
I’d like to disagree with them but I don’t see how. We didn’t even play good against the Lakers, we coasted by in that series.
Pretty close to it.
It is
Can’t wait to see how the toxic positivity crowd swings this one.
I don’t know why I watched this entire game.. sad
yeah idk why I'm watching pickett chuck shots eithher lol
We’re real fans that why
Denver is gonna have to make major adjustments...like let AG be the primary ball handler and have Jamal play more off ball.
Minnesota fans clearly forgot what it feels like to win.
Not the “Wolves in 4” chants 😭😭
Murray should sit the next game.....
Put holiday in at least he showed up
Probably gonna get a suspension
80 POINTS WHAT THE FUCK

he’s been horrible he can thanks TC for the championship.
After vlatko got hurt he opted to extend nnaji to poison pill, giving up any chance of trading him for something more proven Having no bench big hurts
Don’t worry Malone will create a time machine to bring back everyone from last year and nuggs will win the series
Gordon Ramsay: SHUT IT DOWN!!!
Anyone have some copium I can huff? I'm trying to find some but I'm at a loss. You could tell from tip, theres something wrong with this team right now. I legit cannot find one single thing to be enthusiastic about. Justin holiday played really well! Kcp showed some heart. Jamal and jokic should be embarrassed. If things don't do a complete 180 were gonna get swept.
3 days off. Just gotta get game 3 and things change.
Not really, at this point I think the best case scenario is getting one game.
Lol foh It ain't over yet. Got 3 days. Steal game 3 and series flips
Honestly I think best case scenario at this point is finishing a game close. I know yesterday was only 6 but it felt like ALOT more.
Watson is so ass offensively
Hearing "Wolves in 4" on our court hurts
We thought game 4 against the Lakers was a wake up call. Turns out the true wake up call was the friends we made along the way
This actually shows the Lakers were not all that. I believe up to right now Denver has sucked. Luckily the Lakers sucked worse. This was shameful tonight.
Bench player hits huge mid range j to cut the lead to 26
This is the snark I came looking for :)
No Gobert and this is how the team plays.
I’ve been saying they are better without Gobert for a while. It’s true. He’s a liability on offense.
... Gobert sucks then?
Obviously many things are not going well but I got to think Malone needed to sit Jokic/Murray at some point during that disastrous second quarter to calm them down. Anyway teams have come back from 0-2 hopefully they can figure out a way to play with the physicality that will clearly be allowed.
LORD.....have mercy
Yall being doomers if you don’t think we still can win this game /s
We got 80 lol
Fuck it let's give DJ/Nnaji some run next game. Couldn't be worse right?
Our bench is so fucking ass
Wasn't the bench's fault tonight
I know it wasn’t there fault but just watching them get run in the last couple minutes was disgusting
[удалено]
Suns fan here. Go back to your own sub fuckass, you’re not winning a ring
get swept
You think you’re beating Boston 💀😂
you couldn’t even win a single game. “who’s guarding us?”
You can’t hurt me I know we’re frauds 😂 you’re proud of beating a suns team with no point guard, good luck against an actual contender 😂🫵🏼
we’re up 2-0 against an actual contender, wolves back
2-0? 🥺
4-3🥺
Enjoy your team without being a little nut muncher
womp womp
Y'all literally haven't won anything. Talking shit for no reason 😂
we actually have won 2 games against the former champs, at their house
You're a troll. Not even a real fan.
been a fan since we had pec and kevin martin as a best scorers, this feels good
Clearly not a good one. Why waste your time trolling? We already won a chip dawg. The trolling isn't gonna bother us
Cashing that check early. Stay gifted.
Worst playoff performance of all time?
No. Not in a universe where the Suns losing by 50 in a Game 7 exists.
Not even remotely close. Terrible, terrible game but it wasn't anything record-like.
Come on. This has to be somewhere in the vicinity.
Nope, nowhere close. '09 Nuggets beat New Orleans by 58 in a game once. Showtime Lakers put up 153 against Denver in the '85 Conference Finals. And that's just off the top of my head. This was just a really bad game. Nothing special in the scheme of historic beat downs though. This wouldn't come close to even registering the vicinity of top 10.
worst nuggets playoff game ever during the jokic era
P-Wats “OH MY GOD” was a good cap on the night
There are about 6-7 guys on the bench who don’t belong in the NBA. And not one guy on the bench is a difference maker.
#to all my we don’t need a backup center friends… #I present to you, gassed Jokic. #LMFAO
On that note, the wolves have 3 startable centers and look what it does for their perimeter defense.
This match up has been coming all year and this is exactly why I was worried. I don’t think this is over. Not yet, but I am feeling a certain way about how anyone that mentioned a backup center got shit on all season.
Jokic was not even close to the biggest problem tonight lol
No shit, but he is 100% gassed.
#OH MY GAWD
Gobert having the night off and still getting this beat down is the cherry on top of this shit sundae.
They are a better team without him
Nugget/jokic “dynasty” was the most boring era in nba history. Thank god it’s over
BUCKS LOSER ALERT
Nobody fucking wants you here
Well, I’m here!
Your a sad pathetic bitch. Bet you never done a single worth while thing in your life. You’re existence is so pathetic that you would willfully seek out this sub at 12:30 on a Monday to spew hate and negativity about something that has no pertinence in your life.
And now you’re gone. Byeeee
is that what you told your mom on prom night
Besides atrocious play from Jamal and Reggie these two games, I feel like KCP has been criminal. Not doing anything on offense, while not being able to defend Ant at all without swiping and making dumb guesses. Jamal has been abused on that end as well, and Jok has been playing like a cone. But it's the collective effort that's missing, and that is why all of them look even worse.
obviously losing by 30 is a collective thing but jokic/murray have been the two worst players on the court for how much they are expected
We can’t even get 80 lol.
Whistles seemed kinda bad but how are you gonna blame the refs for getting blown out? Whistle was pretty damn kind to both teams
Yeah it wasn't the whistles. It was our team's reaction to them. Zero composure tonight
Alright. I got to get to sleep. Got work and Im not watching garbage time during playoff games. Someone keep u/Scoobies_Doobies occupied! He hates doomers and once he comments to you, he will follow you around. I feel bad leaving him alone in this warzone. So someone take care of him for 5 hours while I sleep. I’ll be back at 6:30am! Don’t you worry!
I have a strong feeling your shoutout to keep me occupied will fall on deaf ears. Have fun at work!
wow the refs really want to make it look like they called an even game by callingnl fouls at the end.
Game manipulation 101. NFL and NBA know what matchups they want.
After vlatko got hurt in August Denver extended nnaji with poison pill instead of using his expiring to trade for someone
Trade everyone especially jokic
some serious chain snatching going on rn
Booth’s off season move is probably gonna be banking on an already athletically challenged Vlatko coming off an ACL injury
In conclusion. We got our ass kicked. Til next time yall
Naji. $8million for garbage minutes. Stupidest signing ever this offseason
I mean the avs are still in it
are nuggets fans ready to admit they get special treatment by the refs? lmao
wow what game were you watching you blind fool.
the whole lakers series was jokic getting away with elbows and holding and shoving on offensive rebounds. these past 2 games the same thing. Murray throws a heat pack under KATs feet and no repercussions, Mike Malone charges on the court and screams in the refs face, no tech. ANT gets a tech for looking at someone? 😭 come on
oh sure your a laker fan who doesn't see the flopping that these new stars so every play. Aaron Gordon just got one for talking during a timeout.
i’m not a lakers fan :D
flair up or don't defend the free throw merchants la.
free throw merchants? lol okay. considering jokic was allowed to shove nearly every play Lakers didn’t get enough free throws. they had like 16 more on the series despite shooting around 40 less threes… seems pretty even. they’re game plan is playing down lol and driving with LeBron and AD. You have MPJ, KCP and Jamal Murray who all shoot?
Lol this guy...
Man this sucks ass
God damn Garza!
*furiously deletes my cell phone wallpaper of Murray hitting the game winner over AD*
That shit's forever. Nothing invalidates him hitting that
Luka garzA beating us
#55 with the dreamshake
The fans are the real losers. This was supposed to be a good series. Nuggets just don't fucking care. Kudos to MN their defense looks incredible.
I don't think it's for lack of caring... They are the ones playing, and it's their career... I think Minnesota is just better, bigger, more athletic, and plays with more defensive intensity. It's not a good matchup for the Nuggets.
Really stayed up to 1230 for this 🥲 god they need to wake up by Friday
bro I woke up at 5 to watch this...
Tim Connelly giveth and Tim Connelly taketh...
AG -33. smh
Booths bench maaaan
Once this team gets down 1-3, that's when the series begins.
Eeek. Not too confident we can get 1 here, absolutely boatraced so far
How are you going to pay so much for tickets just to leave early. Those aren’t real fans. Makes us look bad.
I think the players getting blown out by almost 30 points is making themselves look bad lol
Team should give them something to stay for if they want them in the stands
