Mods are still in off-season mode, I guess. Here’s the thread for possibly the best game of the day, two undefeated teams going at each other.

    Nuggets size overwhelming.

    OKC turns to Poku as their first sub off the bench?

    chet has shown some great stuff so far but almost feels like you would need to play him next to a more traditional 5 in matchups like this, jokic is just way too physical.

    This is a game where OKC’s need for a bruiser behind Chet is big. It would help limit Chet’s minutes vs Jokic and allow him to go against backups more often, but for now not sure they can afford to sit Chet when Jokic is on the floor

    69 nice

    there’s in pace for 138 points, the scoring inflation these days is ridiculous

    Watching Jokic vs Holmgren is like watching Sooners offense under Lincoln Riley vs Sooners offense under Jeff Lebby

    I like how Denver adjusts some of their playbook depending on opponent

    Thunder are a team who’s main weakness is lack of strength inside so Murray plays more of a pass first traditional PG role and Jokic more of a shoot first role to exploit it as much as possible

    I am looking how every Nuggets player knows their role, how they play as a well oiled machine, how their two top guys act so coordinated and how their top guy sees the floor, controls the pace and makes the right decision most of the time… I don’t know, I am not seeing much hype in the media but they might be favorites. This might be hot take of course, how did they do last year?

    People hating on a Rookie playing his 3rd NBA game are fucking weird.
