Christian Braun, Justin Holiday, and Reggie Jackson? In what world is this bench even remotely close to being decent or good.
You don’t understand, they don’t have to be good. All they have to do is hold the line until Jokic gets back in.
But Braun has been and is a good playoff bench player. Justin Holliday has been good as well, it’s Reggie who’s hit or miss

What are your thoughts on the Nuggets offense? Looks unrecognizable. Why are they not shoving the ball to Joker and have him ballet his way to easy buckets underneath? Unless they hit 50% of their threes, this offense won’t work.
My opinion, he went above and beyond on effort on Tuesday night. He's tired tonight. But, we needed that game way more than this one.

Perfectly said.

Denver is a better team than Minny when healthy and rested.
Their big problems are Murray's health and general fatigue. Their starting 5 played the most minutes in the NBA this season, by far the most last season due to the title run, Jokic has played by far the most in the league over the last two seasons. The starting five has played 2,000 more minutes than any other starters in that stretch.
They're run down and playing a great young, hungry team. It happens.

My overall point, was I would rather the Mavericks play the Nuggets as opposed to the T-Wolves. No depth for Denver. Just my 2 cents.

Even when not having a super-human game, Jokic is still the man on the court.

Yeah I believe that’s it. A lot of energy being exerted tonight by Minnesota. I do think Denver needs to make a run because if not, Minnesota will coast in the 2nd half.

Nuggets had no issues with Dallas during the regular season. I would much rather play Dallas in a 7 game series than OKC.

Denver will make a run… I doubt they win, but get it within 10.

Little different ending to the 1st half this go round 
Posted on 5/16/24 at 8:43 pm to theballguy
Good intensity by MN that first half.

Yep, they had to have it and they stepped up

You gotta wonder if fatigue sets in for game 7 with these young wolves. They’re not built for this yet (I believe)
Posted on 5/16/24 at 8:45 pm to theballguy
Murray and Gordon are going to need to have a big second half
Posted on 5/16/24 at 8:45 pm to theballguy
Denver throwing it around like a U11 rec team.

My thinking on game 7 is that both teams will be well rested (especially the TW's -- they're younger) and Nuggets having a home advantage will make that game a complete push. No advantage going it by either team ultimately.

For game 7, the moment isn’t too big for them, which is why I wanted to end this tonight
