Somebody with an opening at the SG, please trade for Lamb and rescue him please. Or even more ideally, overpay Kevin Martin this summer so we can be forced to finally give this dude some p.t.

Had no clue. Someone texted the photo to me last night and I just figured it was new.

Yea he posted a tweet about how foul it was that Indiana would do that to him

 

[Coupé It]

Out in round 1, same as 8 of the last 9 years.

I used to think the same thing but its different now. They're clearly a more physical defensive team and are rebounding much better. Still have some questions about them in the half-court but they move the ball well enough.

I'm starting to believe the Nuggets can finally make it past the first round, the way it looks now they'll be playing either the Clippers or Grizzlies, and I def think they can get past those teams, especially the Grizzlies. Wouldn't be surprised at all if they're in the WCF.

Nuggets are legit.

The Wolves are so sorry. This isn't news though


Rubio needs to get to a team that's wants to win.

Like

I know the term sorry ain't coming from the Warriors fan base, it's been YEARSSSSS like that for yall

 

[kvsm23vs24]

Denver definity won the trade.

 

[solarius49]

I know they play 2 different positions, but I was having this stupid argument with my boys....

He was trying to convince me that KD is better than Charles Barkley. And naturally I told him that he is an idiot

 

[mjgreatxii]

Is your friend someone who hasnt seen Barkley play? And he just knows Barkley as an analyst?
If so makes sense. Your friend is an idiot.

 

[solarius49]

I was so confused

Like, theres no way that anybody can actually think that right?

 

[mjgreatxii]

Barkley was a goddamn force to be reckoned with.
If he didnt run into Jordan he'd have a ring. 6'6ish and dude played like he was 7 feet
And a gifted scorer. Barkley is appreciated

 

[Coupé It]

Why the Oklahoma City Thunder are screwed in the playoffs. If you have 9 mins, watch. This guys been saying everything I've been saying about OKC and Westbrook. Westbrook needs a tough coach, asap.

 

[david bowman]

Wasn't Barkley extremely lazy according to pippen? And not an elite defender? Neither is KD obviously.

Othe boards Barkley was beyond dominant. I can't imagine what he'd do today

 

[larrydavid]

Nuggets are no joke. People saying they have no go to player in the clutch? 

 

Lawson, Iggy, Gallo can all create on their own... especially against their position, not to mention their bench 

Ya'll gon see.

Not to mention Wilson is shooting 41% from 3.

Derek Fisher effect

Dude is doing absolutely nothing to help OKC out...NOTHING. :x

 

[mjgreatxii]

Sabotage

 

[tommyicerocking]

Royce White got like 4 baby moms yo?

LOL this guy is a joke, and so are the 3 other chicks that have his kid

 

[kb8 3qwick]

The only reason I don't see the Nuggets going far is George Karl, as someone mentioned before. He always has good teams and underachieves in the playoffs.

Dude hope off my sack already.

 

[addict4sneakers]

is george karl really a bad coach or is it the cool thing to say on NT? (similarly to saying D wade is washed up)

lets ignore the carmelo anthony era when they only made one deep run in the west. a carmelo led team is going to beat the spurs, mavs, or the lakers?

other than a handful of coaches, could any other coach have the success the nuggets are having w/o a superstar?

umm not really, i think it has to do more with the players. Melo is overrated and usually sucked in the playoffs except the 2009 playoffs.

Are you talking about Nuggets era or his entire coaching career?

But I don't see this Nuggets team really going that far, unless Ty Lawson becomes more consistent scoring the ball.

He's not, it's just that his team went up against better teams in the playoffs.

He was good with the Bucks and Supersonics.

Greg Popvich.

Taking a team to the finals is underachieving?


and Karl is from the Burgh, so fall back B

 

[flyerthandelta]

I can't wait for the playoffs

 

[antidope]

NT and its random George Karl hate. Not everyone can win rings, George Karl is a great coach.
