Also curry and Murray woulda went tot for tat but who gone hel curry? Klay? Poole?????! Wiggins?? No one is the answer while nuggets have a deep team. It would’ve been a sweep maybe 1 game the warriors would’ve won if they shot well but this season we were bad and the lakers proved it. Look how the nuggets are about to sweep them lol we had no chance.

    I'm with you Wildes. The Nuggets are 3-0 but most of the segment is about the Lakers and LeBron. What? This is why the Nugget's market remains small. Even when they do well the media will not talk about them and their stars. The NBA needs to market their stars better because waiting on the LA/NY media to do it will never come.

    • @lks11

      ...or the Nugget's market is small because their population, fans and championship history doesn't measure up to the Lakers in any way. This is not a conspiracy against the Nuggets. The same thing would happen if the Lakers were losing to Sacremento, Minnesota, Utah and nearly any other team in the west. The reality is the Nuggets don't have a marketable star. Jokic is a superstar, but he's not very marketable. Murray is your best chance of having both a star on and off the court.

    Who's here just to see in retrospect how stupid Nick Wright's predictions were?

    In the semifinal people didn't realise Warriors were too bad that, they made Lakers look too good to beat.

    Don’t want to look ahead here but can Bam and Zeller D up Jocic or is he going to be feasting? Going to be an interesting series for sure but I will never rule out Miami the way they’ve been playing

    'LeBron wants to lose one of the next four to protect the GOAT debate.' LOL what? Gotta be the worst take I've heard in while.
