los clippy clips have scored 6 points in 10 minutes and 24 in the half

Oh shit I put $25 on the money line for Denver +265

guys i'm psyched for nuggets/lakers

Truly wild, I thought this was your title winner all year. I guess chemistry does matter

down 20 with 2:10 to go in a game seven, doc rivers calls timeout. i guess now we get to see some real coaching in action.

I for reals would not be mad if Denver won and went on to win it all

guess the Raps weren't just Kawhi

funny how Leonard is getting eliminated by a team that has the vibe of the team he left to go mercenary

if he stayed in toronto theyd be rolling to another title

Starting to think Nikola Jokic can win in the playoffs. Proof of the pudding is in the eating, folks

lmao that foul

The Clippers choked again. 🤦🏾‍♂️ They choked against Houston in 2015 and they choked tonight against the Denver Nuggets.

i've been as big a denver skeptic as anyone here but this is a great basketball team right now

harris is just what they needed

he's made a huge difference

The nuggets are in the western conference finals. However, they have not yet won the title. Until they win the title people will question whether they are close to contending

if anyone has a link to the second round trophy presentation please post for matt

matt stop it you win, they are literally close to contending

haha

Leonard is getting eliminated by a team that has the vibe of the team he left to go mercenary

if you believe what his associates said when he left the spurs, kawhi mostly just wants to live in LA near where he grew up and has family. he would have commanded a big contract in SA or Toronto or anywhere else he chose to go.

look as they’ve always said, “close to contention” flags fly forever. this moment can never be taken away from the nuggets.

Yes they made the conference finals but they only beat the second seed to do it. In a way it would be better if they beat the number 1 seed as the 8 seed and then got swept

I meant mercenary in the sense of trying to team up with another superstar not money, he gets a lot of money anywhere

He picked the wrong la team than

also I don't believe anything he or his camp says

My last tweet before I finish this glass. They did vote they ain’t wanna play no more. . . But I didn’t think they was gonna go out like that 😂

we all remember the euphoric parade through the streets of portland last year after the blazers won the second round championship. my only regret is the people of denver won’t get to celebrate in a similar way

They beat the clippers but never for a moment did it seem like they would beat the clippers, so in a way they lost

getting to go to a blazer game this year in the Before Time was really a treat they love that team so much

man, even magic is roasting the clippers. can’t get lower than that.

Kawhi is simply a phenom and denver will never be able to beat him, in the theater of the mind

in the sense of trying to team up with another superstar not money

but he had just won the NBA Finals in Toronto, so there would not appear to be a lot of incentive to go ring-hunting elsewhere.

this is the second close to contention title for paul millsap... you do have to wonder how that changes his legacy

The nuggets should probably blow it up tbh. They never looked like they should be beating the clippers

wait I totally forgot the trade details is this real??

Tbh they should probably just have the clippers advance

I remember when I didn’t think Jeremy Lin was an NBA player. Great deal of coping from me when that turned out to not be true

one of the things that even smart basketball ppl just mindlessly repeated all year was that the paul george trade was really the “kawhi leonard plus paul george trade”. this never made sense to me and it sounds even stupider now! they traded all of that for paul george!!

Big Honey is the best nickname in the league

lol i was actively telling people to treat that win like a championship bc it's the closest portland would be getting for a generation and nobody liked it when i said that!!!!

Apparently Jokic doesn’t like the Big Honey name I wish he did

Between tonight and the Rockets' fate Presti's gotta be feelin' pretty good these days.

I think the clippers are close to contending. Paul George and Kawhi on the wing? Amazing foundation to build on. Hugs for them

hahahaha matt I love you

still think this team ranks behind 2012 nuggs as my favorite nuggets team but if they beat the lakers I might have to reconsider that

dreamboarding a nuggs celtics finals tonight btw

2012-13 that is

im calling jamal murray jammgod now

Hope the clippers remember the good times, laughing at MKG missing a baseline jumper
