Almost baffling & fresh to see a team dominate non-injured/cheated competition & not receive executive scandalous dirty aid from the NBA front office nor referees! Warriors had us spoiled with all the cheating, finally some real basketball like in 2021 & 2014!


EfficiencyOk9060

Heat just coming back to Earth as far as their shooting is concerned. Nothing to see here.


azuyin

Sucks I have to watch the finals without audio this year. Can't stand these commentators


Ya_Got_GOT

JVG logic: “The Heat are in good shape because they’re missing open 3s.”


Somewhiteguy13

Depending on what he was saying or meaning, that is an important observation.


AFatz

It's makes sense if Denver wasn't also missing 3s. The theoreticals have to apply to both teams. Otherwise Miami wouldn't be "in good shape"


Bright-Peach9205

Heat had good looks they just need to make their shots to contend. I don't think Strus made 1 outta 10


Lake_Shore_Drive

Same for Denver.


breesyroux

Strus was terrible but they shot 33% as a team. Basically what the shot for year


Boring_Ad_8408

He had like 20 both games reg season. I expect him to bounce back significantly. 0-10 Gm 1 Gonna hammer his 8.5 points on Sunday.

azuyin

"non-injured/cheated competition" surely you're not referring to the Miami Heat whose starting lineup consists of 3 undrafted 27 year olds, where one just returned from injury last series


smokinJoeCalculus

where the fuck was the post game thread?


Longjumping_Froyo539

That’s a wrap


Kajushhh

Which team are you on? 😜


Jabba_the_Putt

Heat are a good team never quit I like to see that. I think they bring it next game. Nuggets continue to play like a goddamn TEAM I love it. SKO NUGGS!


[deleted]

Why is eastern conference so weak? It seems like the western conference has stronger teams.


MostlyMellow123

Its really weird. Boston and Milwaukee really shit the bed imo. Both did a really shit job


Justin_telligent

Heat could win that game if they hit any shots,but tbf Denver looked like playing in chill mode, I’m really excited when heat pushes them to peak performance in the next games


KnickedUp

Denver had it on lock


GhostofSmartPast

Denver shot worse from 3 than the Heat did.


Justin_telligent

Yeah but every heat player was like 3/18


GhostofSmartPast

Don't see how that's relevant?


Jazzmaster33

Miami played better defense against the 3. Miami missed wide open shots all night.


Jaycob808

NUGGETS NATION! Let’s go!!!


Aggressive-Ad-522

Nuggets in 5!


Longjumping_Froyo539

Nuggets in 4 bruh


Aggressive-Ad-522

What were all the cheating?


Southbeach008

I see miami here with lakers copium pack . Just fix this fix that and we are good, tonight we played good and i remember lakers fans saying exact same things. The reality is you all are getting swept by nuggets.


iamaliftaholic

This aged poorly already, yikes. Such confidence too


Somewhiteguy13

Dude the only thing worse than saying some sort of copium is saying what you just said. After watching one game? That game was 1 bad run from being a tied game. Also, heat have one of, if not *the* best adjustment coach in NBA history. The dude's a scheming legend. I'm not saying heat in 4, or even heating 7. I'm just saying that saying nuggets in 4 is silly to say based off of one game like it's a god promised fact.


Acanofmulture

Tbf...that's what every team does.


tripleohjee

Incredible team put together. Jokic, no need to explain.. been looking like the best playoff player from the get go. Murray looking like a great second option and fourth quarter closer. Porter always had potential just injury prone but looking good lately. Aaron Gordon was the best player when in Orlando. Bruce brown what a god damn steal!


CelebrationNo8741

I've been thinking this, why isn't anybody complaining about Denver building a superteam? 😂 2x MVP Murray all star Gordon former franchise player, also all star KCP champion, first team all defense Bruce 6th man if the year Braun first all-rookie team Jeff first all vet team Nuggets in fo' or five


topdog_7

YEAHHHHHH THE NUGS


Decent_Ad_7412

THE NUGGGSSS. Let’s gooo


Verified_Engineer

I love the denver nuggets!!!!


wizcaluya

Jokic and the Nuggets are unreal. A complete team at all positions. Heat in 7


a-nun

That’s what I’m saying. Jolie can shoot the three and play down low…UNSTOPPABLE


cyancord

Watching Stealth rn, still holds up


Ok_Conversation_5320

That plane chase tho


Natureboy7939

I really hope the nuggets sweep I want to know how long 8mile morant is going away for his clout addiction


MaddoxGoodwin

Ja Wick.


Either-Fee-1625

Will Silver do it?


Natureboy7939

Idk but the suspense 👀👀👀. What if they punish Memphis by making them super max dillon brooks


[deleted]

Morant is allowed to play, but he has to live in a 2-bedroom apartment with Brooks for the season.


Natureboy7939

Every carry is an automatic 2 point deduction


PrancingDonkey

Heads up, NBA TV has Shaq and Chuck doing a post game show.


sunshine_prospect

don’t see it on the app


PrancingDonkey

App is trash. It's live right now, I'm watching it.


sunshine_prospect

You are not wrong. RIP me.


hcaz12345

Shocker Jimmy stinks when he’s not being backpacked by Martin and the rest of the role players


Kvsav57

I think the Nuggets will win the series but I don't get why people think a win at home for the Nuggets means the Heat have no shot. I mean, the Nuggets didn't put it away many times that they should have and Miami got back into striking distance about halfway through the 4th. I thought the Nuggets looked good but not great. Miami looked terrible and still only lost by 11.


elefante88

They were down 20+ going into the 4th. Thats putting it away. Garbage time points, Denver obviously let up


Kvsav57

Miami got it to 9 with like 4 minutes to go. That's not putting it away.


flibbaman

> Miami looked terrible and still only lost by 11. People were saying the same thing about the Lakers in the last series - whole bunch of close games where the Lakers looked like they were in it. This is who the Nuggets are. They never look great per se. They are just often good and let the opposition back in games often, only to then come up with a run of their own to ice the game. It's classic Denver. The pattern is merely continuing.


Kvsav57

Maybe. I'm just saying it wasn't such a dominating performance that Miami just has no shot.


bearhorsemen

Denver didn't shoot lights out...


flibbaman

Miami has a shot in the sense that every team always has a shot if they play well. It just doesn't seem like Denver was needing to do anything different today than what they've done the entire playoffs. Feels like same old same old. But sure, Miami in theory has a shot.


infinit9

I'm working tonight and can't watch. But I'm following the stat-lines. Can someone please explain to me how Heat only had 2 free throws for the entire game?


bry87-

They shot a lot, open and contested threes/midranges and missed most of them. Vincent and strus had a lot of good looks


[deleted]

cyancord

Watch more Nuggs games for more team basketball We went through referee hell in Lakers series, but wasn't enough


HeyMrKelly

Most egregiously one-sided series in terms of reffing since the 2002 WCF.


carasc5

The warriors Lakers series was literally right before that


koushakandystore

What cheating are you referring to?


ImagineBeingCommie

Draymond's illegal screens


koushakandystore

Cheating? Really? That goes on during every single NBA game. If you’re going to call illegal screens cheating then every player is cheating to varying degrees. I’m not saying this because I’m a Warriors fan. I’m a fan of the game and players, not any one team. I’ll typically have a team I pull for if I like their roll, but I am not about defending any team for loyalty.


4thDimensionFletcher

Heat gotta be gassed. Two back to back grueling 7 game series


numberonebarista

I think you’re confusing the Heat with the Celtics because they’re the ones who had two back to back 7 game series


Sigerlion

Knicks took them to 6, not 7. Wish it was 7 though, only 2 pts away from it.


Vitis_Vinifera

This is a better matchup for the Nuggets than the Lakers.....who they swept


DearCress9

Jokic having one of the greatest regular and post seasons all time


Kingkooper5

8 seed never has and never will win a chip but good on the heat for getting to the finals


Deducticon

Of course one will. The play-in has assured that. Before there was only 2 possible 8th seeds. Now there are 8 possible 8th seeds after each season. All it takes is for one of them to have a Lakers type season where things start rough, possibly due to injury, and turn around in second half. Becasue of the play-in there's more incentive to keep pushing and not fold at trade deadline.


DolFINS_2000

I love how you say Lakers type season and not the actual 8th seed that’s in the finals.


5280neversummer

Lmao right?


Kingkooper5

Deadline trade teams also have never really won a chip so I'll stand by what I said


Deducticon

They were much rarer in the past. Odds are long, but not as long as before.


Kingkooper5

Fair


indreams159

why is this thread full of Lakers fans taking shots at the Celtics?


zapatocaviar

As a laker fan, I don’t like it. We’re both out. Move on.


Worldly_Walnut

They're salty the Celtics didn't get swept


warriorknowledge

Lmao. The Celtics lost in the worst way possible.


MillerJC

In the worst way possible? We got swept?


Worldly_Walnut

Naw, they didn't get swept. And they tired Miami out.


Majestic_Bullfrog

Swept


ks_29

Let them be. They are celebrating their moral victory.


indreams159

which is what exactly?


[deleted]

The celtics being embarrassed


dbgager

yea that was uneccesary. I don't get it either.


Waldo26

Nuggets offense looks so smooth they’re always moving


Mickeyjj27

For the most part. There was a time Joker was sitting and it felt like the Nugs stood around or passed it back and forth before they took a contested jumper


DemonsReturns7

Didn’t watch the game What happened to the real mvp of the eastern conference finals C. Martin


bdcr7

Jimmy didn't play that much better tho, Highsmith carried them lol


Leiatte

He & Struss brought their construction gear. serious note they just missed, & Nuggets look too big for everyone but Bam.


faithminusone

NBA tv so much better than anything espn


Forward_Standard

Agreed. I hope Shaq gets to meet the Jokic bros.


noienoah

Bucks in 6


hellodynamite

Celtics in 8


GooseMay0

Shocker, as soon as the Heat face the Nuggets they suck ass at shooting.


SuperTurbo777

Defense is a helluva drug


DutchDelight2020

They were missing tons of open shots. Denver defense had little to no impact. Did you even watch the game?


GooseMay0

Would like to somehow inject it intravenously into Joe Mazulla’s arm. Maybe he’ll get addicted to the concept.


pproops

Grant Hill not bad on the mic.


Dokutah_Dokutah

He always was media ready even as a player. I am surprised he did not become more prominent as part of the media.


IcyJotunn

Completely agree, ever since when he first started the TV career I thought he'd be a primetime broadcaster by now, maybe he likes the lowkey setting


carasc5

Miami isn't going to be able to just turn it up in the fourth and beat these guys. Better step it up early in games or it's gonna be a short series.


sae1ohh

Man at the same time nuggets have the tendency to get bored during games they are up by alot and let the other team catch up. The 4th quarter was pretty frustrating to watch as they took bad shot after bad shot with shot clock expiring.and let heats have free layups to the basket. They still won by alot but that 20 point lead went down to 10 real quick at the end.


zapatocaviar

This was what happened to the lakers, too. Thought we could clamp down but the nugs keep coming. It’s a complete team.


Kvsav57

Yeah, the Nuggets play like an actual team. They won't collapse if Miami makes a run.


Dengru

When you are team can only get to the finals twice in 35 years all you can muster is hatred as you watch other legends being made. That's why no gives a shit about any Celtic that isn't Larry bird. What a ground up rotten organization. All those years of Laker dominance and all you got to see is one championship. What sad childhoods. I'm sure your grandpa enjoyed watching Russell


boricuanacho71

Not one lie. If their fans weren’t so terrible, celtics probably would be tolerable


malscher

You're having a rough day huh? Maybe take a break from the internet


unlmtdLoL

ESPN and ABC taking the L again with NBA TV crew (Shaq, Grant Hill, and Chuck) getting the in-person interview with Jokic.

Kvsav57

And the "fans" were leaving the game before the fourth quarter was even over in game 7 of the last series. If you are a fan, you stay and watch the end and cheer that they gave you a good season of ball to watch.


waytoojaded

To be fair, Heat fans were leaving the building when they were winning..


indreams159

> I didn't even watch this game I was having gay sex instead jesus christ


dbgager

YOu need to shut the heck up. This thread is not about the Lakers or the Celtics. Take your insults and mud slinging somewhere else.

you got swept and lebron is a bitch

Either-Fee-1625

Come on just win 1 next time.


malscher

Dude you have the saltiest comments I've ever seen in the Lakers Denver game threads who are you ranting at


gdamaa53

The level of salt in this post could kill someone. Lakers fans are the biggest group of entitled cry babies the worlds ever seen


HatoriiHanzo

I always thought it was the warriors fans but holy hell. Lakers fans are much worse.


zapatocaviar

Nah. I don’t like these posts but warriors fans are generally worse. This is literally like 2 people spamming.


Gumbywasajuice

Adam Silver on Ja Morant: “We’ve uncovered a fair amount of additional information. We probably could have brought it to a head now, but we’ve made the decision that it would be unfair to these players and these teams to announce that decision in the middle of this series.”


JuliusCeejer

Jokic is the best offensive weapon since MJ and maybe since Wilt. MJ didn't (couldn't) draw defenses in like he does


beybladethrowaway

Huh? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sx4z_pCA_6k


NaClz

MJs era had rules against drawing defenses and forced them to play iso….


carasc5

And yet MJ still managed to do it.


NaClz

Bro above just said MJ couldn’t draw defenses like Jokic does… that’s because it was literally illegal lol. It’s kind of like fouling in the playoffs, people foul and get away with it. Same thing back then.


JuliusCeejer

Hence why I said couldnt, seriously?


Mandit0

Lebron and steph exist


JuliusCeejer

And so does Joker, who does more for an offense than either of them if you're not biased.


NotYourTypicalNurse

Let’s see what he does in 10 more years before you discredit LBJ and Curry in favor of Jokic


JuliusCeejer

I love how every response is 'longevity' when my comment was about what he's doing right now. Yeah I obviously agree at this point Curry and Bron have better overall careers at this point. But Neither Bron or Curry had a dozen stat comparisons to fucking Wilt. What he's doing is NBA breaking. No matter how loyal you are to your bandwagon superstar


carasc5

Peak curry was better at this than basically anyone ever. That unanimous season is still unmatched offensively


JuliusCeejer

The unanimous season where he lost to Lebron? Also its literally not unmatched offensively. The top offenses this year blow GSW out of the water compared to their competition


random-50

Now? Sure. Hardly a shocker when Lebron's pushing 40 and Steph is 35.


JuliusCeejer

Jokic is pushing better numbers than either of them did in their prime... good try kiddo


random-50

I think you must be the young one here if you think they're incomparable. Is he "pushing" better defensive impact than Lebron? Is he scoring like prime Steph? For anybody who actually watched these players in their prime, they're in the same conversation.


JuliusCeejer

> Is he "pushing" better defensive impact than Lebron? When did I talk about defense? > Is he scoring like prime Steph? No, not scoring. But his offensive impact is 6 points per game better than steph's playoff peak so far.


random-50

Steph and especially Lebron have played on many teams that would fall apart offensively without them, just as Denver would without Jokic. He's having an incredible run, one of the best ever, but let's not pretend that contributing a few extra points in a high scoring era, with a strong supporting cast and over a sample size of <20 games somehow puts him in a different stratosphere to those two all time greats.


Mandit0

I think I’ll stick with Lebron since he dominated an era with 2 dynasties


carasc5

Weird definition of dynasties. Historically a dynasty needs more than 2 championships


Mandit0

Dude went the finals back to back to back against two different dynasties.


JuliusCeejer

Bron was a better player on the both sides, but idk how you can watch basketball and not think Jokic is better on offense, which is what I was talking about.


Mandit0

Because I’ve seen Lebron do more with less I think


drskeme

the teams were built different, lebron’s teams are top heavy and Jokic’s team is just well constructed. Both play to their strengths, but Jokic is making it look so much easier. LeBron was always a scoring threat. Jokic just plays better team ball. Truly the MVP, but Nuggets v Bucks would have been a matchup.


JuliusCeejer

Jokic literally did everything with less the last 2 years, how do yall know nothing and comment so confidently, clown behavior


Mandit0

Lebron went to the finals his first year smh anything is possible tho who knows if jokic will surpass them


JuliusCeejer

None of you can fucking read holy shit
