He was getting to the paint in the first half and Denver was physically punishing him. It wore him down and now he’s afraid ti go in there. |
Seems like AD and LeBron both get worn down against Nuggets and can't sustain in 2nd halfs. LeBron due to age. |

Nah, don't bring that garbage here. The FO treated Pope very well, when no other team would offer him anything decent. His career grew here and he's the first to say that - and has. Don't start crapping on the FO for this.
Kobe used to say it all the time. Give us the talent and it's up to us to win or not. That plies here. The talent is there, but it's on the players to succeed or fail. Thus far, none of the guys has been consistently AGGRESSIVE throughout the game except for LBJ/AD.
Can't win walking the ball up and being afraid to attack on either end.

This (bleep) was so freaking predictable. Third (bleep) quarter meltdown. Austin and dlo have been absolutely useless. They can both go. |

We knew Jokic was gonna outplay Lebron and AD, just had to hope they could keep it somewhat close.
Murray, KCP, and MPJ are completely shredding DLo, Reaves and Rui. That’s the difference right now |

I actually dont have a problem with D'Lo and how he is playing. The flow of the game always favored the Nuggets though. Its almost exactly like Game 2 last year. We have a lead but its only a matter of time before they start heating up and finding their rhythm |

Like I've said, our FO is dumb af when they didn't try to dodge Denver. They almost got lucky New Orleans would have won but then Zion got injured.
We're freaking 3-1 against OKC. 3-1!!! Denver is gonna lose to Wolves or Suns so we wouldn't have to face them and the championship would have been ours. Stupid front office make stupid decisions. No more lucky championship. |
Doesn’t matter… |

Ham is ass.
Russell is ass.
Reaves is not doing enough.
We have no back up center. |

DLo and Jokic leading in FGAs with 16 each. |

Free agent this summer Jonas Valančiūnas is only 31 years old. He’s not going to be the answer for The Joker but he’d certainly help |
More small guards please |

Nuggets look like Phi Jackson's Lakers while the Lakers look like the Portland Trailblazers. totally shook and its pure domination. I think this will eventually also breakup our team like the Blazers did back then. |

LeBron has more TOs than the whole Denver team and he’s yelling at DLo about turnovers? I don’t think DLo is taking the criticism well. |

Lebrons turnovers have been the biggest factor in the 3rd quarter meltdown |

He's not. You just don't want to trade him and his good contract for trash
Just like we've done with KCP |
