I've waited nearly a lifetime for the Nuggets to get to where they're at and to beat the lakers in the playoffs. I remember when Alex English broke his thumb against the Lakers in the 1984(?) WCF. :doh
It's kind of incredible Nug's don't have a single championship...Pacers, Jazz and Suns also a suffering fan base that had teams that could've won it all. Go Nuggets!

And my C's have NO HEART. Spoiled entitled brats. Tough team to root for. They need a PG and some moxie...which can't be taught.

Their difference in 3-pt pct against my Sixers vs. the Heat is amazing, Go Heat. Elton Brand needs to be tried for crimes against Philadelphia fans for letting Jimmy Buckets go.
Well I was noticing the other night, for instance, that when I'm going through pistachios, opening pistachios, that the hard to open ones, I don't bother with them anymore

Great F’ing game tonight
The Nuggets sweep the Lakers
That was a great battle by both teams, but in the end the D by the Nuggets closed down James under the bucket
Go Heat!!

Although it was a sweep 🧹 that was still one heck of a series and a great finish. Too bad the Lakers couldn’t at least extend it for another game.

They should have drawn up a perimeter shot play for the un-drafted Austin Reaves instead of a layup for 👑 James. With no cap space and free agency he’ll be gone next year anyway.

So long Austin :hand

It's the dreaming that's real

My following of the NFL has seriously decreased in the last five years. And now this lame ass kick off rule implemented? Hello baby, I'm gone goodbye. Players making dollars hands over fists, for glorified flag football? Uh, uh. I'm all for players safety, but come on man. Best of luck with your sterile money maker, Roge. It's still a contact (collision) sport, brah.

That was a great scrappy comeback by the Heat
But I don’t think they can win in Beantown

That was quite a win! They almost gave the game away again.
Celtics have a lot of players that can shoot the ball.
Back to the Gah-den!! :DancingaJig:
