  1. What the graphic doesn’t mention is the one game Nuggets weren’t down 12+ points in 5/6 playoff games but also down 8-9 pts in every quarter until the 4th Vs Lakers in game 5 too. I say this as someone who has most of my money on Nuggets to win it all and big Jokic fan. If lakers shot better from 3 (LeBron 39% on 10/26 but rest of team a horrific 28% from 3 on 34/121 with many of those open 3s. If they shoot a league avg 36% from 3 at 44/121 they win series or at worst go to 7 games and had they been hot 44% from 3 or 54/121 they def win). That’s with lakers roster 3-7 or coaching (or FO) not even close to the 2 way level of Nuggets/Wolves. Wolves should get better whistle from now on too. Nuggets need to play Braun Watson more mins bc of their athleticism/defense.

    Nuggets gotta get off to much better starts period! They may get massive break tonight Rudy Gobert out bc wife gave birth to his first kid.

    PS 08-09 to 09-10 Lakers were absolutely a great team. Pau Gasol had more win shares and WS/48 then Kobe in regular season and playoffs over 08-09 to 09-10! He was one of about 5 guys robbed of Top75 team. Lamar Odom Fisher Bynum Artest prime Ariza etc with arguably GOAT coach around Kobe Pau (who both made all nba teams) is a great teams!

  2. Twolves have everything that the Lakers had when they beat the Nuggets in the bubble. Surprise, it’s working. The Lakers had it and they gave it away. First they let their 2 centers go. Next, they let KCP their best perimeter defender go. Next, they let Kuzma their all purpose wing go. The Lakers were that team but for some reason they thought being built big wasn’t a smart idea. Not surprisingly the Lakers can no longer beat the Nuggets nor the TWolves.

  3. Nick is such a clown: the reason Jordan didn’t have a deep playoff run at 21 or 22 years old is because he was surrounded by GARBAGE teammates! He wasn’t on a team with a 2x All-NBA/4x All-Star in his prime & a 4x All-NBA/4x All-Defensive player/3x DPOY also in his prime & the 6th man of the year who averaged 14/5 playing only 24 mins per game!! Nick sound so delusional when he doesn’t contextualize things! Jordan had a terrible team around him squaring off against a strong Eastern conference with title teams that had 3-5 HOF’ers against him & some role players! Get a clue Nick!

  4. Ant Edwards and Tyrese Maxey are two of the most electrifying and enjoyable stars I get to watch. So excited to see their careers explode as they become household names

  5. Wilds make 1 excuse, Nick has odersity to point it out while each segment he finds a way to make excuses for laker or his LBJ infatuations. Bringing up some wild statistics to make a minor point that is likely non relevant to a loss.

  6. The Clippers officially have the dumbest management in the history of professional sports after giving that lemon Kawhi another max deal. Bravo imbeciles bravo!!

  7. Bussard has picked the Clippers to win it all the last 4 years in a row. He's a liar trying to change the narrative. He went on Undisputed every year and picked them. He picked them on Odd Couple. He picked him over and over. THOSE ARE YOUR CLIPPERS. YOU AND SKIP BAYLESS!!!
    Don't run from your picks now mfs!! you jumping on a bandwagon in the 2nd round? GTFOH

  8. I wonder if there was a fire 🔥 at the studio, would the 3 hoast scream in pain when burning, or would they go like arghhh this is rough and go quietly.
