No way Nuggets came back this same overtime. Jokic is ridiculous and unreal. I stopped watching when they were down 9. With 3 mins left. How the hell did they come back inside the same overtime

Insane carrying of a team. 52 pts and counting
56pts on 71% FG

Lol. What are the Mavs doing? Why are they still playing ADisney? Someone that you keep in bubble wrap till the trade window is open

Brother you are not a contender. AD is one of the guys you move in hopes you get something to build around Flagg. These people can't be serious man

MVP! No contest


He wins another ring and he is officially bumping Shaq off his pedestal.

Shaq: 1 MVP 4 rings
Jokic: 4 MVPs, 2 rings

No contest here

Nobody is addressing the stink brewing in LaLa land grin
Lebron comes back from injury and the chemistry suddenly gets ruined.

I don't think the Lakers can survive fielding three passengers on defense (Lebron, Doncic and Reaves) against a solid team.

We know who has to leave soon.

They'll probably move Reaves on but if they are sensible, this should be LeBron last season.

I think that’s still the plan. Na Christmas Day make dem unwrap am but he going back to the wrap. He hasn’t seen minutes since he returned from his injury and became available. No fear, una still move am.

The ease with which he makes his buckets is what marvels me. This man can average 30 if he really wants to.

He's been playing lately. He dropped 30 on the Nuggets. I just don't know what the plan is fr

Make them try move am fast. A 32 going to 33 year old big is not going to get healthier. And as Joe Burrow is showing with the Bengals as well. Talent is pointless without availability

The man took 21 shots. It's crazy how the fewer shots he takes the more he controls the game

Na bipolar Draymond, blind Harrison barnes and prime Lebron/Kyrie I blame for the disrespect to that warriors team. Everyone was lining up to stop them with their best efforts.

People underestimate the greatness of that 73-9 warriors. They did it in a League with prime Lebron/Kyrie Cavs, prime KD/Westbrook/Ibaka OKC, Prime Harden Houston rockets, Prime Kawhi Spurs.
The league was stacked that year
I mean with the recent exposures on betting in the NBA and how games are rigged, I still maintain the NBA cooked that series although Cavs won game 7 fair & square. But that game 5 & 6 especially game 6 - was cooked. Anybody wey no gree shouldn't reply as I won't read it. grin

Jokic. 34-21-12. This is getting ridiculous

@Roland17
Your Packers must have pissed off God himself. Cos what are these injuries
Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 8:35am On Dec 28, 2025
How did the Jazz hang 127 on the Spurs. I understand if it was the Nuggets. Those ones are allergic to defense but the Spurs?

Spurs only play defense whenever they want grin

Meanwhile Nuggets can't play defense to save their lives

Like I said, this Jokic can easily average 30 if he wants.

Willis has impressed in Love’s absence and can be a starter in the league. His shoulder injury has been recurring since last game. We going into the playoff seriously banged up but our defense has kept us in games.

The Pistons just gave the Lakers some good old fashioned whooping!
Re: The NBA Begins by larride(m): 3:07pm On Dec 31, 2025
Nuggets are cooked. 3 of their starters were injured before now Jokic is out for 4 weeks.

It'll take a miracle for them to remain in the playoff spot before Jokic returns.
Re: The NBA Begins by larride(m): 3:19am On Jan 01
First game without Jokic, see Murray stinking up the joint, been bailed out by Watson and co.

Nugget better move this guy on while they can still get some good returns from his trade.

He is in his 10th season in the NBA and has 0 All-Star nomination.. Not even bench nomination sef. Make we no even talk All NBA. Outside of his injury woes, he is just too inconsistent.

Very inconsistent. One thing I noticed about him is his shot selection.

He runs down the clock in every attack, he doesn't know how to do fast breaks, if he hasn't attempted some unnecessary dribbles and run down the clock only to shoot like an slowpoke. grin

That guy cannot lead a franchise, he's just not that guy.

I dare say MPJ has it in him to lead a franchise than Murray
Re: The NBA Begins by raumdeuter: 3:09am On Jan 04
Its tough watching an all timer like KD play against you and wishing he misses his shots which he wont

No one has said it yet, so I gotta say it. It amazes me the stunt Celtics is pulling with a very incomplete roster. That being said, I wish Jaylen Brown would get his numbers a lil bit up. Next to Jokic, he is my MVP.
Re: The NBA Begins by Ridwan1821: 9:09pm On Jan 04
Honestly, Mazzulla has done a very good job with the team and Jaylen Brown has been very consistent at setting the tone for the boys everyday game. I will be lying if I say I am not surprised by our performance so far this season. We thought we'd be tanking.
I also wish JB keep getting his numbers up so he can get into the MVP and All NBA first team convos.

Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 12:04am On Jan 05
Letting the Nets drop 127 on you. Do the Nuggets even run any type of defensive drills at all?
