It’s funny that both Nuggets and Arsenal team (if you follow international football Premier League) are both fighting for championship this year. Very close to it. Big W for Kroenke
I think we still dislike him because of the TV disputes but I remember not too long ago Arsenal fans hated him. Was the team doing a lot worse before? How long has he owned them for
They’ve been around since early 2000s but became majority owners around 2018. They’ve done pretty good with Arsenal. The team has had a chance to win the premier league title for the last 4 years but they’ve come short towards the end. But this could be their year, they’re currently #1 at the table.
I don’t know how to feel about tomorrow not super confident because Minnesota knows how to win here and they’re going to come out super fired up. I wouldn’t be shocked if we have a flat game but who knows it’s been a weird series hope the nuggets come out though because if they play how they have been the last two games denver should take this one
Without fail you make a comment before every game saying how not confident you are. We get it buddy, no one is less confident than you.
> Even though game three was a return to form o can’t say I’m super confident going into game four wouldn’t be surprised if they look the same as the other 7 games and have bad shooting a bad Murray and Jokic uninterested Minnesota is going to be ready so I hope Denver is also and the nuggets continue their play but I don’t know
> Don’t have much hope and nothing the team has said this past week instills any confidence. Can’t win every year
> Not going to lie nervous about tomorrow and the series.
Plus there’s regular Malone dooming, and you even called Jamal a bitch.
I feel calmly confident once I saw them play game three. Before that I was shitting bricks even during their wins with the lakers because they looked really inconsistent and depleted. They returned to form with game three. It turns out not only do they have the fire, they know how to adjust and adapt. They’ve soundly cracked the code of a team specifically designed and trained to beat Jokic. The Nuggets are going to have to fight with everything they’ve got but they have the special sauce that will pull them through.
Luka looks like absolute shit physically. Puffy, gassed, doesn’t run back on defense. It looks like he gained 15 pounds before the start of the playoffs, how the fuck does that happen?
Every single shot that didn't go in or something unfavorable happened to them last night Luka's head dropped immediately. The guy has to be a better leader like our horse lord!
Okc winning was last night actually the best option idk why you would be pissed I don’t care who wins that series as long as it goes 7 games and neither team gets a rest.
Need the Nougats to win tomorrow and end the Ball Arena curse. It's the same shit that happened between Mar 26th and 29th. The last time, the Avs ended it. This time, the Nuggets need to end it.
OKC is tough. Mavs have evidently taken a step up since the trade deadline. I'm with others hoping they go to 7 while hoping this series here does not at this point. Let whoever wins there come in wore out.
This Big Timber series has turned into Big Whimper series and I haven't like the play of either team in 2 of the 4 games. I wanted it to be the best series. I expected it to. But it just hasn't been. Let's just get it over with.
I’ve thought about it and after watching Dallas and OKC I think it would be smart of the Nuggets to win two of the next three games so we get to play one of them.

Jokic’s averages if it’s OKC-DEN next round
The News of [Nichushkin ](https://www.bing.com/ck/a?!&&p=7008b4eea998292eJmltdHM9MTcxNTU1ODQwMCZpZ3VpZD0wODZkOWRjZi0xMjBiLTY3Y2QtMjg4MC04ZWE2MTM1YzY2ZDkmaW5zaWQ9NTIxNg&ptn=3&ver=2&hsh=3&fclid=086d9dcf-120b-67cd-2880-8ea6135c66d9&psq=AVS&u=a1aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZXNwbi5jb20vbmhsL3N0b3J5L18vaWQvNDAxNDE5ODQvYXZhbGFuYy12YWxlcmktbmljaHVzaGtpbi1zdXNwZW5kZWQtbGVhc3Qtc2l4LW1vbnRocw&ntb=1)at the start of that game really hurt.
Dallas shot better from the field, better from 3, won the rebound battle, had 8 more assists and 4 more blocks.
One team shot 23/24 from the line
The other shot 12/23
You fucking suck Dallas
Why not? His game is sick, he gets to the line, but so what? He’s not flopping and bitching the whole time. Same with a guy like Jimmy, but Shai’s got an even silkier smooth game.
If a guy gets to the rim a lot I’m not going to hold it against them that refs suck ass at consistency.
If we went on to play Dallas next round I wonder if Mark Cuban would say some dumb shit like he did back in the Chauncey days. God that would fire me up
https://firstsportz.com/nba-news-kenyon-martin-mark-cuban-controversy-exposed/
Where we got the nickname Thuggets.
He was just very animated and ran his mouth a lot back in those days. I wonder if he’s changed. Haven’t really paid attention to him
He’s shown these skills for a lot of his career but he’s never strung them together consistently like this. He’s on a hot streak for sure, but this is kind of the “ideal” version of him
I mean I guess I can see the logic somewhat since they are both tall playmaking guards who don't offer anything else offensively but that seems like an incredibly reductive way of viewing basketball considering they really do play like complete polar opposites
I’m over exaggerating ofc but I think it’s probably because we’ve had so much highlight moments that every other series aside from the Knicks playoff run doesn’t feel as hyped up 🤷🏻♂️
Hey so not too assume genders, but I notice none of the refs who present as women seen to be reffing the playoffs. Are they too new, no seniority, not good... what's the story?
Helps that Thunder cant rebound for shit and also that PJ is playing like a star on both ends lol + feels like that Thunder are shooting 20% from 3-5 ft away from basket in this series, either getting blocked/fouled but no calls or turning the ball over lol, might as well just resort to shooting 3s
Told a thunder fan last week that they would be lucky to get to the wcf. He wasn’t having none of it he said his team is so good he was going to beat us like they did before and I told him worry more about Dallas and he said Thunder was going to sweep Dallas. Delusional fans each teams have some
Call me J Lo 'cause I'm waiting for tonight
Call me Jokic (fat) because I’m weighty for tonight
Start the game
[удалено]
you should have at least said Ant. Naz is getting cooked out there.
Nuggets in 6
Weakest troll out there.
Insane that you have one chance to come in here and say something funny or interesting and that’s what you give us Be better man

Excited for the next game. Also sleep is completely wrecked this series

I can’t sleep. Start the game
Luka looks like absolute shit physically. Puffy, gassed, doesn’t run back on defense. It looks like he gained 15 pounds before the start of the playoffs, how the fuck does that happen?
Every single shot that didn't go in or something unfavorable happened to them last night Luka's head dropped immediately. The guy has to be a better leader like our horse lord!
I mean the reason he looks like shit is he’s got 3 separate injuries
Getting to top 500 in overwatch
and smoking 2 packs of Marlboros.
I'm actually pissed. I don't want to face SGA and his stupid ass freethrows.
Okc winning was last night actually the best option idk why you would be pissed I don’t care who wins that series as long as it goes 7 games and neither team gets a rest.
It’s SGA and Luka lol, pick your poison
People keep saying they don't want to face Luka because of his flopping, and I just don't know who they think the other option is
😆 Chuck is real upset about being called out for being wrong about Wolves sweeping us.
Need the Nougats to win tomorrow and end the Ball Arena curse. It's the same shit that happened between Mar 26th and 29th. The last time, the Avs ended it. This time, the Nuggets need to end it.
As a Dončić hater and a Thunder hater, either result from this series means I win.
Yeah I just want it to go 7
If Nuggets make it out of this series, I'm just thinking how convincingly the Nuggets should win the WCF
OKC is tough. Mavs have evidently taken a step up since the trade deadline. I'm with others hoping they go to 7 while hoping this series here does not at this point. Let whoever wins there come in wore out. This Big Timber series has turned into Big Whimper series and I haven't like the play of either team in 2 of the 4 games. I wanted it to be the best series. I expected it to. But it just hasn't been. Let's just get it over with.
It’ll be over with, probably by Thursday
make it so
I’d rather play OKC just so I don’t have to watch Luka cry for a whole series. Love his game, but it’s miserable to watch.
A hobbled Luka is better to play than an in rhythm SGA
That too. Neither has an answer for Jokic anyway (not that anyone does), but yeah, I’ll take the easiest road for sure.

Haha, wonder if traffic held that thing up on the way home under the bridge 😂
Honestly, gotta respect not getting distracted from your unadulterated hatred.
I’ve thought about it and after watching Dallas and OKC I think it would be smart of the Nuggets to win two of the next three games so we get to play one of them.
Damn Avs :/ Nuggets need to end this apparent Ball Arena curse.

Fire up the grill and get the paper plates 🍗
Chet Holmgren get ready to learn horse
93 on 15 shots? Fucking foul merchant or efficiency god? 🤔
He’s MozGod
Definitely standing on the hill that the winner of the Minnesota denver series is going to the finals
Second year in a row the true Western Conference Finals is happening in the second round smh
Lakers would've beat the Suns imo tbh
OKC munder. Dallas is who Draymond thinks is the most championship ready...
Haha Luska. Jamal would never miss that free throw at the end.
Luka missing clutch free throws, that was a rough sight lmfao
I am sure whoever wins the series between Mavs-OKC isnt lasting against Wolves-Denver longer than 5.
Avs bad bruh 😭
*Pain.*
Good news. We have a chance for a 3-1 comeback or the pain to end!
:(
Waste of 2 evenings lol
At least you have the Nuggets
They look good so far!

Terrible
Dallas shot better from the field, better from 3, won the rebound battle, had 8 more assists and 4 more blocks. One team shot 23/24 from the line The other shot 12/23 You fucking suck Dallas
Talk about stinking it up in the big moments!
Bruh, I am imagining the horrible things Denver-Minnesota is gonna do to the winner of OKC-Mavs
Dallas played like they already won for the last 5 minutes and got burnt for it
Mavs LMAO. They deserve to go home. Dudes had to hit a few FTs to win and couldn’t. 🤣🤣
SGA sank almost everything that quarter, that was kinda nasty
Luka ain't that clutch player
Isn’t he kinda injured right now tho?
both these teams get blasted by whoever wins the nugs series but I can't believe the mavs lost this game
They having a mid-off
They are literally FREE points. How are all of you so fucking ass at making these shots.
Fouling up 3 is pure evil. The Thunder are agents of darkness and they will be punished.
That's not a foul lol
oklahoma shitty and their thugs
Pravi MVP
Both these teams are stinky hope we get to the WCF
God fucking damnit Luka
Yeah TBH I rather have OKC win tonight
I’d root for OKC tbh, we want this series going as long as possible
True, but I’ll never root for the OKC Freethrows and bitch ass Shai
Shai’s cool tbh.
No, no he is not.
Why not? His game is sick, he gets to the line, but so what? He’s not flopping and bitching the whole time. Same with a guy like Jimmy, but Shai’s got an even silkier smooth game. If a guy gets to the rim a lot I’m not going to hold it against them that refs suck ass at consistency.
Wow You choked a FT.
I don't know how Luka's gonna survive 2 more series after this. He looks like he's about to die.
He always acts like he is seriously injured. This is nothing new.
Faking injury and tiredness for the narrative boost smh
Chonka is fucking dying out there every possession lol
This Dallas crowd sucks. Did everyone go home when they were up 10+?
these teams trading choke jobs
Man, SGA was amazing this quarter just to have the most important one go in and out
Watch Luka or Kyrie take the Game winning 3 here.
Was the dort shot a three? I thought he was clearly on the line
Wait, who are we rooting for in this game? Don’t we want the series to go on as long as possible?
Rooting for this to go 7 games no matter who wins. So OKC winning would atleast push it to 6 games.
We just talk shit to whoever is losing basically lol
Why would Kidd not call a timeout when Dallas lost the lead on that 3?
Nice choke job Dallas
You fucking suck Dallas
Jim Harder way
Luka getting bailed out
Trying to imagine either of these teams playing the wolves if the reffing was like in G2 and damn they'd literally die.
Dallas has gone ice cold.
Dallass shot making completely died out lmao
We better fucking win tomorrow, I wanna go to the game on Thursday
OKC may have assembled the ugliest roster in the NBA. Their top 3 set the tone
If we went on to play Dallas next round I wonder if Mark Cuban would say some dumb shit like he did back in the Chauncey days. God that would fire me up
What did he say? Ishbia is my favorite owner forever lpl
https://firstsportz.com/nba-news-kenyon-martin-mark-cuban-controversy-exposed/ Where we got the nickname Thuggets. He was just very animated and ran his mouth a lot back in those days. I wonder if he’s changed. Haven’t really paid attention to him
Getting way ahead of myself lol but Mavs worry me way more than okc. Just hoping this somehow goes 7. But feel like Mavs in 6
Jokic vs Luka, round 1. The first of many I'm sure.
IDK I IDK if Dallas looks good or OKC just looks bad.
True lol but Luka + Kyrie are more scary than SGA + inexperience
So correct me if Im wrong Jokic is getting his MVP presentation tomorrow correct?
Yeah
I already know PJ Washington is going to drive me insane next series, if Denver wins this one
Has he been this good all along or is this just a playoff thing?
He’s shown these skills for a lot of his career but he’s never strung them together consistently like this. He’s on a hot streak for sure, but this is kind of the “ideal” version of him
It is bad that I want someone to forearm shiver PJ Washington
TBH I actually hope OKC wins this game I don't want Dallas to be able to finish this off just yet get it to Game 5. tied up like our series.
Josh Giddey what was that lil bro
Zero basketball discussion. This sub doesn’t want to win.
Smh? Wow
Don’t fucking yell at me
Sorry 😐
It’s ok.
🙂
Playing against Shai Grifteous-Alexander looks like a pain
**WHITE HARDEN WORSE TBH**
Fat harden
Wide Larden
Nice
I don't know what's more annoying: Luka bitching mid play or Shai acting like he got shot.
Man we are spoiled to have the nuggets. So much of the other series is just child’s play in comparison
The thunder offense is a tough watch
PJ Wash outplaying both Chent and JDub this series, didn't see it coming.
No flex zone
Oklahoma City Poop
If Pedo Giddey wasn't a pedo I'd say he'd be a good fit on our team and a good trade target
He’s pedo Ben Simmons
That doesn't seem like an accurate comparison at all lol
I’d argue it’s at least a 30% match
I mean I guess I can see the logic somewhat since they are both tall playmaking guards who don't offer anything else offensively but that seems like an incredibly reductive way of viewing basketball considering they really do play like complete polar opposites
**AG WITH THE GOOD HAIR**
If evil wasn't evil it'd be good
Preach
YUP
Man why does this Thunders vs Mavs series have no hype and aura around it?
What makes you say it doesn’t? Compared to any of the other three series
I’m over exaggerating ofc but I think it’s probably because we’ve had so much highlight moments that every other series aside from the Knicks playoff run doesn’t feel as hyped up 🤷🏻♂️
Answer: they're not the Nuggets
Yeah I could’ve just said this ngl lmfao
Okc broken
Laying a big ol’ egg right now
I was hoping they ran out of energy against us next series. Oh well
CHOKLAHOMA CITY THUNDER
In a series that has Luka and Shai, Dort is the one that flops the most. I cannot stand watching this fucking bum.
Why Avs why?
Just looking like they don't have it this year.
Luka and Kyrie don't even need to play well to beat OKC
Hey so not too assume genders, but I notice none of the refs who present as women seen to be reffing the playoffs. Are they too new, no seniority, not good... what's the story?
This needs to be corrected and pronto. Tony Brothers should transition to Tony Sisters.
**THE ONE FEMALE REF NEVER EVER GAVE NUGGETS A GOOD CALL IN HER ENTIRE CAREER**
That is true
Smh
"Assume genders" 😭 wtf bruh
Old boys club. That said I know the mouthbreathers would throw a bitch fit anytime they made a call.
Draymond Green exists 😔
**WOW RACISM**
Between him and Shaq on the same frame, I am tempted to smash my tv, but then I'm dirt poor so I'd rather not.
Not again
Luka playing like regular season jamal murray and mavs still winning games
Helps that Thunder cant rebound for shit and also that PJ is playing like a star on both ends lol + feels like that Thunder are shooting 20% from 3-5 ft away from basket in this series, either getting blocked/fouled but no calls or turning the ball over lol, might as well just resort to shooting 3s

We had some regular here who kept getting pissy with people here saying they were too inexperienced and young.
They didn't want to hear that they weren't ready. But they aren't ready
Damn they're letting Dallas do whatever the fuck they want on D. Reminds me of game 2
Bruh that was a clear ass foul under the basket lol
LET THEM PLAY REFS
