It is the years 2018-19 in the National Basketball Association (NBA) - The Regular Season

double digit leads arent what they used to be

Hey guys what’s going on in the NBA

they're still doing this 'regular season' bit for some reason

This Lakers season was really something huh

who could have seen it coming

My favorite week was when Lebron and Magic traded the whole team for Ant Davis.

NOW that was supposed to be FUN

russ: 20-21-20

it was cool watching him stay in a blowout to chase the last rebound, really meaningful stuff

Russ is a snake oil salesman

he's insanely corny when he does this shit

Would like to see the nuggets not get smashed by the warriors here, last two games made my girlfriend really mad

Warriors getting away with so many fouls

3 dunks in a row for KD!!!

The playoffs are all about getting away with a ton of fouls and all about the fans loudly complaining about this fact, so this Dubs-Nuggs game is now officially "playoff intensity".

They built up all that whining equity last week

Seriously tho the nuggets were down 3 when cousins tackled Monte Morris and I’m mad about it

KD is a fucking punk

At a certain point the nuggets need one shooting guard who is really good instead of 4 who are pretty good

I thought Gary Harris would be that guy but he’s always injured and hasn’t been great this year

yeah the nuggets need to make a move this offseason for a legit wing

my controversial nuggets opinion is I wouldn’t mind seeing them sell high on murray

Murray for Randle

It’s possible that Michael Porter is exactly what they need

yeah idk about randle for that reason exactly, plus we’ll probably be picking up millsap’s option and I love plumlee now
I was interested in beal but he may have played himself into too much money this year

so do the nuggets want to get to the 3 spot so they can play pdx rather than okc or sas?

sorry pdx should be the clippers

I’m not afraid of the spurs

excuse yourself

the clippers could present a real challenge for the nuggets and i dont have a lot of faith in malones playoff adjustments

don't think nuggets should worry too much about the first round... i don't think they would have a great shot at winning in the second round w/o home court so dropping to 3 doesn't make much sense to me

anyone can get humbled by the warriors at home but last night made it seem to me like the nuggets just don't have enough top end talent around jokic yet to really run w the big dogs. harris and murray are pretty legit but millsap isn't giving you a ton rn and after that everyone else is like a nice lil bench player but.....

jokic i think could win them a game even in the second round and maybe they grab one more but i got pretty strong 50 win hawks vibes off them last night

they shot about 10% from 3 which doesn't help. millsap has actually been great since the all-star break...their biggest weakness is giving up 3 pointers on defense which is why they have no shot against the rockets and the warriors are a really tough matchup for them, though they've won a few games vs them the past couple of years

Millsap has been great lately and has carried the team at times but they need someone who can create offense instead of just feeding off Jokic. Isaiah Thomas was worth a try for this reason.

I’m not super concerned because I got to see that Jokic buzzer beater in person and it’s like the youngest team in the league. Happy with the season.

i met Pau Gasol on Monday. really nice guy

I’m not afraid of the spurs

the spurs will play disciplined defense and half court offense, and have two veteran stars, so they are no pushovers. the clippers seem more iffy.

nuggs have issues around size and athleticism not sure if randle is the right guy for them

yeah he wont help on defense i think id rather have someone like the idea of milsap next to jokic

Millsap is too old. If they let him walk they’ll have a ton of cap room and Randle makes so much sense.

unless millsap completely shits the bed from here on out he’s getting his option picked up I think. I really don’t see it with randle

2014 milsap wld be good

ultimately the nuggets are ahead of schedule and are going to be fine

theyre doing great but its also pretty fraught trying to figure out who to resign pick up trade etc to get to the next level

think they were really banking on Harris improving this season like he's done every season before it:

his injury history is really shaky.

he was looking pretty bankable, the injuries tho yes

what they really need is a point guard who can create. they’ve got a ton of trade pieces but idk who to target
