I think there's a legit argument that the Nuggets are the best team ITL rn.

Spoiler:
SEADOOD BAT SIGNAL!


The Nets have too many question marks regarding Durant's injury and Harden's been getting some minor/medium sized injuries lately.

I would love to see a fully healthy Nets/Nuggets FINALS!

Boogie and Rondo seems like a great mix to insert into your locker room to fix chemistry issues. Clippers / Lakers in the 1st round gonna be lit!!!

C's on a back to knack tonight. no kemba probably. Fournier of course. not catching heat/atl ...so fighting for 6th? best case for everyone fighting in the East is 6th imo, no playin/play bucks 1st round.

Langford...I'm kinda a believer. Avery Bradley type. Not this year, but a chance.

Hey how about Tacko? 10min of legit time vs Embiid. +1. I saw that too before Brad. Came in 3 mins first half, Embiid 0-2, Tacko outrebounded him. I actually didn't see much of second half. Disgusted. But the box score says he was +1 so I'm going to say he looked great! I'm serious, throw a 7'7'' 315lbs money wrench at the guy who is bullying the whole team. Make him think. Kornet? Kornet?? He was -13 at the half. wtf did you think would happen? Embiid lowers his shoulder takes 2 dribbles and dunks or gets fouled. I want Brad to go to UNC. He is a college coach.

If it weren't for seeding I'd take them over any team in the West, including a fully healthy Lakers. Having to play at least one series on the road is tough though, plus they'll likely have a very difficult first round matchup.

I'd put them at 60% to get out of the first, then 45/55 in the remaining series. West is tough yo.

Crazy stat, Nuggets now own THE GREATEST OFFENSE OF ALL TIME per nba.com stats. I don't think it's hot shooting either as they are 5th in 3pt % and 18th in 3PA. The craziest stat of all though, is that they are DEAD LAST in free throw attempts per game. If the officiating catches up to them it won't even be close.

Seems odd to me Doncic is only 73% FT career, 73% this year. it seems like he'd be an 83%, even higher, just from his game. I understand his 3 point shooting isn't elite...but he is hitting them 37% this year after a cold start. But he is so skilled and coordinated, you would think the FT would be automatic. He shoots 8 a game or so.

BLAKE just nailed a 30+ footer at the 1st quarter buzzer!

No Harden tonight, supposedly Durant is available but he hasnt played yet (im watching it on mute while I multitask so I could have missed something said).

LMA/Blake/Durant/Kyrie/Harden

if they get full health this team is going to be damn near UNSTOPPABLE!

Durant just checked in. Looks especially skinny. Get that dude a cheeseburger NBA Season Thread 2020-2021 with some fries NBA Season Thread 2020-2021!

He made his first shot, as expected.

If anyone is interested in experiencing life as a Knick fan, Elfrid Payton just played his worst shift of the season over the final ~5 min of the 2nd quarter. It was so bad Thibs actually pulled him with 57 sec left in the quarter, not for foul trouble reasons, just for holy **** he's so terrible reasons.

Can I get Lakers vs Nuggets must title for $100? Nuggets will be a higher seed and we don't know for sure how AD/LeBron will rebound from these injuries! Huge edge for you!!!

Must title is moot because the Nets are winning it all.

LFC was 100% right. Adding both LMA and Blake for nothing at all was totally not fair from a truly competitive standpoint. These WOKELYN Nets are otherworldly amazing.

I watched the final 6-7 mins of Knicks/Celtics and when I tuned in I just knew they would lose tonight.

Super frustrating loss, especially when RJ played such a great game.

No thanks, and this counter offer shows you don't actually believe the Nuggets are better than the Lakers at full strength, which is satisfying enough for me

I saw a couple awesome GORDON stats today. Jokic has assisted Gordon the 2nd most of any player this season. In 5 games.
