Nikola Jokić, Nuggets are done, are Knicks too Jalen Brunson-reliant in playoffs? | NBA | THE HERD
The Minnesota Timberwolves cooked the Denver Nuggets 106-80 in Game 2 behind Anthony Edwards’ 27-point game. Nikola Jokić finished with 16 points and 16 rebounds, while Jamal Murray scored only 8 points. Colin Cowherd explains why the reigning champs are done. The New York Knicks edged over the Indiana Pacers 121-117 after two controversial kickball and illegal screen calls on the away team. Jalen Brunson’s hot streak continued after finishing with 43 points in his fourth-straight 40-point game. However, Colin is concerned with the Knicks as he discusses whether they are too Brunson-reliant.

this guy never played a GAME IN HIS life /get him OFF THE AIR
The comment of the Nuggets taking the 5280 on their shirts too seriously when the score last night at one point in the third (4:11) was 52-80 to the Wolves 🐺
Oh now Denver is cooked….they were the best thing smoking last week when they smoked L.A. though…lol
T-Wolves turned up their #1 defense in the regular season by a notch and we've got ourselves a '90 style basketball, the difference is, these guys can shoot 3's as well. KAT is averaging .538 from downtown and Naz Reid is averaging .393. Also, their top 8 players averaged 76 games in the regular season and everyone is healthy in the playoffs, I feel they're as hungry for a title as the 1991 Bulls.
Fidget spinner? Great take.
The NBA will do better if they can get more fans from across the country. Im in MN and as a state we've tuned out the NBA forever had their finger on the scales for the big markets. The NFL understands this and keeps it more balanced.
Jalen "Flop"son was great but Pacers got robbed!!!
Denver's done. I watched the Post Game Interviews. I only like what I heard from Reggie Jackson. Everyone else was hanging their heads with the exception of Coach Malone. Murray, KCP, and Jackson are all beat up and they seem surprised every time that they bring the ball up with Minnesota's defensive intensity.
keep hatin' bro … maybe watch some basketball.
So much for that dynasty talk.
The CBA is working, where different franchises have a chance.
Refs can't save the nuggets this time😂 it's different when the best player not 40 years old huh💀. Ask malone who they daddy is
I’m not in NY but I’m happy to see the Knicks back competing.
“A second round pick” Jokic is about to win his 3rd mvp. Is he just a “second round pick”?
yea let a new city get some wins too they have the right too
The KEY was that MN were able to keep the swarming defense up! if they would have gotten tired, then Denver is one of those very dangerous teams who could come back from being down 20.
I want a different team every year
whats with Colin saying their top scorer is a 2nd rounder? That was 5 years ago? He's developed into a star, I don't understand why he can't be the star because he's a 2nd rounder? Jokic, Ginobli, Rodman, Draymond, all 2nd rounders, so according to Colins logic here, his buddy Draymond, yea he's a good defender, but he's a 2nd rounder soooo who cares
Brunson is a monster 😳 pacers gotta contain him some how
How long will this hot air last? I forgot this guy was still commenting.
Saying Tyrese Halliburton isn’t a star is bananas
Ive never seen a series 2 games in, with such high stakes, and people say its done. And i agree.
If my knicks get to ecf i have no complaints they are an awesome team to root 4 great guys.
I love Colin
Coward is classic Cali. Often in error never in doubt.
no bad shots for ant. he doesn't play like a 22 year old. he forces nothing. I can't imagine how good he'll be when he's 27-30.
Can people stop saying the Knicks have no bench. They have a bench but Thibbs refuses to play them. His Bulls had a bench too. Thibbs teams have benches. He refuses to play them.
J Mac gets NO love on the Hers clips lol😂
The second round pick thing is old. Once you get in the league you gotta earn it. And he eatned it. Dude is a two time NCAA champ and College player of the year.
What did McGregor say about young gorillas taking things from old gorillas?
Trade randle for mikal bridges.
They have clutch fourth quarter players, Colin. Not every player is clutch.
Not even every all-time great player.
😉
🤣🤣🤣 !!!
We live in a society

The East has been terrible for 15 years, Colin. This is nothing new.
Colin doesn’t get basketball lol, nor does he really watch it.
This isn’t an effort thing from Denver. The t wolves defensively matchup the best in the league against the nuggets
Lakers should have won that series just didn’t know how to close 😢
Looks like Ant is on his way hoping he carries the NBA like the super stars of old.
Arrogant is the exact word I was thinking of when watching the Wolves Nuggets game last night. Nuggets are acting like they're in the middle of being this storied dynasty and they were entitled to all the calls. You won once. Congrats are in order for that. But they just couldn't believe that the T-Wolves aren't scared of them one bit.
And I don't want to hear any "LeCry James" from any Jokic fans ever. That dude cries after EVERY no call just as much as Lebron. I've seen that troll stomp on the ground like a toddler when he didn't get a foul.
I always give his takes a chance and then he says something like Haliburton isn't a star and you just have to mentally check out at that point lmaoooo
Stop it, t wolves 😂😂😂
Yeah, this decade really feels like the NBA in the 70's
