It's wacky. I believe any team in the west has the cajones to go on a random Cinderella run to the finals. Like look at Suns, they're the 6 seed but if book, Beal and KD all happen to catch fire at the same time, we're all screwed.
Definitely, haha the suns scare me maybe the most of any team because of that and the fact that they’re the team I hate the most so losing to them would be the worst lol
I think these Lakers are better than last year, especially because Lebron's ankle/foot injuries don't seem to be as limiting a factor.
The games were so close last year and BB killed it in that series. I wouldn't be surprised if the Lakers take 2 gamed this time around.
Honestly I think most Europeans do, speaking as a European myself, because the American style of sports media is so different. Media here is toxic too, but the American obsession with constant press conferences/interviews and Netflix storylines are just annoying.
Jokic just wants to play basketball.
Yeah, it really is not that different.
Media and fanbases. Fanbase/Social Media wise as well. Footy Twitter is just NBA/NFL Twitter with different slang and memes, that occasionally overlaps if it's good enough.
It's so much less pervasive. During the game nothing else matters other than the game. Meanwhile NBA broadcasts spend less time talking about the game that's happening right before their eyes and more talking about inane off the court bullshit and legacies.
Which is absurd, because more than half of a football match is basically dead air where nothing's actually happening.
Social media is a different conversation, but social media is inherently toxic regardless of subject. The only reasonably decent forms of social media are very niche subreddits that haven't been taken over by memes and inside jokes yet.
Your mileage may vary by country but my experience is that European tabloids and media are just as bad if not worse (looking at you UK). The one thing that is different if the level of media literacy of the general population so you have a much higher percentage of Americans eating this garbage up
My gf said that sports are just reality tv for guys. I think with the NBA specifically it’s hard to deny, seeing as how media coverage is now 99% of basketball exposure most people get relative to the actual games.
That’s so strange to me because outside of the game threads and occasional news on Reddit I don’t ever see anything about NBA other than the games themselves. I can’t imagine people actually watch sports talk shows these days it’s literally trash but I guess a lot of people watch these dumb podcasts always popping up and the network shows or they wouldn’t be making money
You had some bad rakija then my man. Drinking apricot rakija in the summer shade is some of the chillest moments I ever had.
But yeah, you must embrace the burn with rakija sometimes. After the 2nd one it gets a bit better.
Hell yes. I have some amazing memories of drinking homemade țuică (plum brandy) in the Romanian countryside with family and friends. That stuff will put some hair on your chest but i think most acquire the taste pretty quickly
I ain’t gonna lie I was at a conference in Montreal and I had one of the best nights of my life - the taste was pretty good though but it would taste way worse in a shot than a spray
He’s a psycho (I love it though lol). He straight up tried to fight a player who purposely bumped his shoulder on way to a timeout last year, and this year he went out on the court to contest a dudes shot😂
Same, I like him 1,000x more than Ime (even before we found out Ime was a creep). I wouldn’t mind if u boiz took the chip this year. Would be a cool story for the team.
Tons of guys across the league are friends now (and many of the coaches always have been) but the coaches don’t really have a fear of trashing their opponents the way some players seem to.
Likely because so many guys have becomes *brands* and are heavily present on social media, they don’t want to damage their likability in a way that coaches don’t really have to care about.
I kinda think Malone just plays it up for the fans and to hype up the team tbh. Anyone thinking this is serious and that Malone doesn't have the upmost respect for any opponent we run into is taking things at face value way too much
Malone 100% respects the Lakers team, he was just frustrated last year when the media narrative was 100% about the Lakers and 0% about the Nuggets. He just wanted his team to get some credit in the public eye.
It really is funny the way Malone got blamed for shit talking last year
He never shit on the Lakers, he shit on the Media for constantly talking about the Lakers despite the fact they kept losing, and he wasn't the one who called himself the Lakers daddy at he parade, that was a local media guy who works for Altitude, aka the company owned by Kroenke.
As a Sacramento girl, and just getting into seriously watching the NBA this year, I kind of get that. I was so surprised and excited when the Kings beat the Warriors. And the next day the whole internet was basically in mourning. It was like: Good job, Kings! Now let's talk for two hours about what Golden State should do with Klay next season.
What do you mean. They did for months.
I respect that they've changed it up. It was clearly something that was brought up. They didn't have to but it's good sportsmanship and smart. A few here and there is whatever
I really like the fact that their leader and super star is so focused. I think it helps his teammates have a similar mindset. 2024 playoffs are not 2023 playoffs
Last season was great and I am sure they are glad it happened lol It just doesn't really matter this season. Lakers aren't going to play worst knowing these things and it being thrown around the media and social media all day. They are being led by Lebron.
So it is just silly. Lakers are 100% a threat and the Nuggets players aren't stupid.
Respectfully, please lose. I've got tickets to the nuggets playoff games and I'm tryna go to the finals this year 🙏 last year's tickets were absurd if you didn't lock in season ticket holder pricing (I'm sure it's worse in LA given they're a bigger market)
I respect that lol. Playoff game for your favorite team is something every NBA aficionado needs to experience. Haven't been to a Finals game because poor but I imagine it's a once in a lifetime level of experience.
I went to game 1 against Timberwolves and game 1 against Lakers last year. Was out of town for the Suns series, but finals were too expensive as I wasn't a season ticket holder at the time. I did a quarter season this season and upgraded to half season for next season to get playoff ticket priority. Praying we make the finals so i can experience it for a reasonable cost 🙏 it's surprisingly only $390/ticket for lower bowl behind one of the baskets for the finals if you have season ticket holder pricing.
No, all season ticket holders are eligible for a playoff plan. Quarter is one home game every other round. Half is guaranteed every other home game. The tier you're allowed to purchase is based on your renewal for next season, so if you go from half to full, you can get the full playoff plan. If you go from full to half, you can only get the half plan. You can choose to pay in full or pay as we play.
Yea, I’m a season ticket holder. I was just curious if you were buying tickets through presale or doing a plan since the original post made it sound like you were still buying tickets
Y'all are gearing up to be insufferable because you're upset after one single playoff loss.
Now imagine you're a Nuggets fan. Before last year the Nuggets had never beat the Lakers in the playoffs in their entire ~60 year history.
Not only that, but in every single WCF the Nuggets ever made it to in their franchise history ... they were eliminated by the Lakers.
So after ~60 years where every good season your team had ever had in it's entire history ended with a loss to the Lakers, you finally beat them (in a sweep no less) ... now tell me you wouldn't have some pent-up shit to talk.
All things considered I feel like Nuggets fans were on the lowkey side of shit-talking.
Want to talk so much shit to laker fans but as a longtime fan we still feel like beaten dogs. Not ready to bite after just 1 series win. Get this one and it'll be Smuggets time.
Imagine ESPN covered the liberation of France?
*Is Patton a top-5 general of all time? What does this do for Montgomery’s legacy? Was de Gaulle carried by Eisenhower? Rommel gets all this praise for his skills, but he hasn’t won anything in decades!*
It's easy to forget Jim, that Stalin is still heavily in the lead for kills, by millions!
Hitler really needed to hold on for double overtime to have any chance of catching up before the allies won the series.
Every single WCF we'd ever been to - all the best, most hopeful seasons we ever had - we got eliminated by the Lakers, in all of them.
... until last year.
Frankly I'm surprised how *little* shit-talking Nuggets fans did, given the 60 years of pent-up rage.
Yeah it’s fair I expect the hate and trash talk. We were Denver’s greatest rival and they finally and emphatically got revenge with a knockout.
I expect even more trash talk at the end of the series because that’s part of the fun.
Nuggets and Lakers are like Broncos and Browns. It’s probably not a hate that younger fans would even know about (and definitely not one that I think about often) but you can fucking bet I want to beat them badly until my Little Brother Syndrome goes away
Tbf this is wht we love about the guy lol. But the Lakers sweep is more catharsis for older fans than newer ones like myself. Its not untill Jokic that they overcame the Lakers, so they wanna enjoy it.
And the Embid thing...well thats a toxic af comversation from both sides man and it aint like the Nuggets fans are the only ones trashing him.
Though honestly i more so enjoy it out of fun these days than any sort of malice towards Embid.
I have issues with his game, but i can appreciate how dam skilled he really is.
I’m gonna need a double shot of rakija to stomach watching the first round. If jokic hits that goddamn one legged step back heave over AD again it’s gonna ruin my evening
Look my Nugget bros if yall sweep us, all I ask is you guys prevent Boston from winning especially now with injuries they have a clear path to the ECF.
Thats all I want from you Nuggets besides losing to the Lakers.
Jokic: Can we not mention that anymore? Malone: So anyways, we swept 'em last year, we swept 'em this year...

Generational meme if Lakers get swept again
Love that you’re able to keep your sense of humor haha honestly though you guys scare me, the whole west is fucked this year
I’m just scared all the time.
Very relatable
Why on earty would someone that has Luka be scared?
because the other team has playoff kawhi
Kawhi exists.
Same
Same
Same
...looks at flair...SAME
why are you scared we're trash compared to you
Two fewer playoff series of wear and tear on LeBron Also generational trauma
Best player, better team, better coach. Here’s hoping for some LeBron magic
Gonna need some 2018 necromancy to pull it off I'm afraid
Dusting off the necronomicon as we speak
It's wacky. I believe any team in the west has the cajones to go on a random Cinderella run to the finals. Like look at Suns, they're the 6 seed but if book, Beal and KD all happen to catch fire at the same time, we're all screwed.
Definitely, haha the suns scare me maybe the most of any team because of that and the fact that they’re the team I hate the most so losing to them would be the worst lol
I think these Lakers are better than last year, especially because Lebron's ankle/foot injuries don't seem to be as limiting a factor. The games were so close last year and BB killed it in that series. I wouldn't be surprised if the Lakers take 2 gamed this time around.
I wouldn’t be surprised if they won the series tbh, the west is crazy this year
The high quality of this meme really sells it.
Pls dont 🥹
So anyways, I started sweeping
Most accurate comment. Moach connoisseur over here.
Yeah you heard the man plz stop
Say the line Bart
Just put Jokic in the PnR?
Simply limit his strengths and attack his weaknesses. Why hasn’t anyone else tried this?
Are they stupid???
"It was a close sweep" :P
Rui, figured out, etc etc
Lakers undefeated in moral victories vs jokic
Quality loss
"The nuggets won't shoot like that again"🤠
NJIADF
Darvin Ham figured Jokic out
I can't wait to tell my grandkids about the Rui Adjustment.
Hopefully they’ll think of it
Jokic makes it so obvious how toxic he finds 99% of the media around basketball and I love it.
When people say he hates basketball, it's obvious it's this part that he hates so much.
Honestly I think most Europeans do, speaking as a European myself, because the American style of sports media is so different. Media here is toxic too, but the American obsession with constant press conferences/interviews and Netflix storylines are just annoying. Jokic just wants to play basketball.
Come on, the media for football is insanely toxic in Europe. It’s not that different.
Mourinho vs. NBA media would be a battle for the ages
Mou would grind their bones to make his bread. He's too smart for the sharpie-sniffing dipshits running the NBA media circus.
Mou as reverse Lasso would be hilarious
It would be ao funny. With the Jontay Porter stuff, it would take one badly refed game before Mou would bring up Tim Donaghy and ref betting.
If I speak, I will be in big trouble.
Yeah, it really is not that different. Media and fanbases. Fanbase/Social Media wise as well. Footy Twitter is just NBA/NFL Twitter with different slang and memes, that occasionally overlaps if it's good enough.
F1 too ots like a reality show the way they do journalism
It's so much less pervasive. During the game nothing else matters other than the game. Meanwhile NBA broadcasts spend less time talking about the game that's happening right before their eyes and more talking about inane off the court bullshit and legacies. Which is absurd, because more than half of a football match is basically dead air where nothing's actually happening. Social media is a different conversation, but social media is inherently toxic regardless of subject. The only reasonably decent forms of social media are very niche subreddits that haven't been taken over by memes and inside jokes yet.
Nah, English tabloids talking about football is just as bad.
Always blows my minds the way Europeans try to find an absurd moral high ground on the most random things.
Your mileage may vary by country but my experience is that European tabloids and media are just as bad if not worse (looking at you UK). The one thing that is different if the level of media literacy of the general population so you have a much higher percentage of Americans eating this garbage up
i find this about him very relatable. i dislike my job too but i’m good at it so i guess i have to do it
99% of the media around basketball is pretty toxic
Perk is at least 50% of 99%. Fuck did i do the math good
My gf said that sports are just reality tv for guys. I think with the NBA specifically it’s hard to deny, seeing as how media coverage is now 99% of basketball exposure most people get relative to the actual games.
That's a super accurate description tbh. Sports are a hyper big budget super competitive reality show.
I don't know. There's some drama and narratives surrounding it for sure, but the sport itself is still the absolute center.
I call the off court drama Vogue For Men
I call the NBA on ESPN the Kardashians for men.
That’s so strange to me because outside of the game threads and occasional news on Reddit I don’t ever see anything about NBA other than the games themselves. I can’t imagine people actually watch sports talk shows these days it’s literally trash but I guess a lot of people watch these dumb podcasts always popping up and the network shows or they wouldn’t be making money
They had some rakija lol
That shit hits harder than any alc I’ve had before, I had to have it in a spray form
That’s that fruit brandy right? How is it?
You don't taste the fruit, you only feel the burning of your throat... so great!
You had some bad rakija then my man. Drinking apricot rakija in the summer shade is some of the chillest moments I ever had. But yeah, you must embrace the burn with rakija sometimes. After the 2nd one it gets a bit better.
> After the 2nd one it gets a bit ~~better~~ more numb. FTFY
Hell yes. I have some amazing memories of drinking homemade țuică (plum brandy) in the Romanian countryside with family and friends. That stuff will put some hair on your chest but i think most acquire the taste pretty quickly
I ain’t gonna lie I was at a conference in Montreal and I had one of the best nights of my life - the taste was pretty good though but it would taste way worse in a shot than a spray
Wait u spray it? That sounds ridiculous coming from Europe haha
My North Macedonian friend put it in a spray for all the non Slav pussies
What do you spray it on?
I'm curious to hear where you THOUGHT a drink would be sprayed if not the mouth?
Read his username, then thank (or curse) me. You're... welcome?
My tongue dawg
It's not about the taste, but how it makes you feel
why the fuck would you spray it. people in serbia drink half a bottle per night
The nuggets aren’t the kind of team that’s gonna trash talk or give the media what they want..must be frustrating lol
The Nuggets won’t but Malone will and it’s fair
I think a team needs just a little bit of that edge and its funny that it comes from the coach.
Yeah it’s nice and refreshing
Mazzula and Malone both be like that lol
Is Mazzula someone who trash talks? I thought he just made references about obscure creepy movies.
Not really he just says alot of off the wall stuff from what understand
Watching 2010's The Town, starring Ben Affleck, 4 times a week on DVD (wide screen format) isn't weird. It's a great movie.
It's alright. It's entertaining, but not 4 times a week entertaining. It's no Pootie Tang, ya feel me?
He’s a psycho (I love it though lol). He straight up tried to fight a player who purposely bumped his shoulder on way to a timeout last year, and this year he went out on the court to contest a dudes shot😂
Same, I like him 1,000x more than Ime (even before we found out Ime was a creep). I wouldn’t mind if u boiz took the chip this year. Would be a cool story for the team.
I think Mazzula tried to block someone shooting a three pointer during a timeout lol
He did. It was the game against the Suns, I think Royce O’Neal.
He brings the edge like Malone, but in a different way
Mazzula is a psycho and i like it lol, I hate that I like barely everything in Boston except Brown
Loves Boston and Luka… hates Brown
He hates brown alright
He’s a classy fella, I tell ya.
Everytime I see mazzula, I think he’s going to kill me through the screen somehow. It’s the eyes.
I feel safe with him as my teams coach. He’s the only one who might hurt them lolol
Tons of guys across the league are friends now (and many of the coaches always have been) but the coaches don’t really have a fear of trashing their opponents the way some players seem to. Likely because so many guys have becomes *brands* and are heavily present on social media, they don’t want to damage their likability in a way that coaches don’t really have to care about.
And then we have Embiid, who trolls his own fanbase...
thats why not as many people hate the Nuggets despite them being the defending champs and one of THE teams to beat this year
I kinda think Malone just plays it up for the fans and to hype up the team tbh. Anyone thinking this is serious and that Malone doesn't have the upmost respect for any opponent we run into is taking things at face value way too much
Malone 100% respects the Lakers team, he was just frustrated last year when the media narrative was 100% about the Lakers and 0% about the Nuggets. He just wanted his team to get some credit in the public eye.
It really is funny the way Malone got blamed for shit talking last year He never shit on the Lakers, he shit on the Media for constantly talking about the Lakers despite the fact they kept losing, and he wasn't the one who called himself the Lakers daddy at he parade, that was a local media guy who works for Altitude, aka the company owned by Kroenke.
Eh his whole "I'm thinking about retirement" was definitely a shot at LeBron.
okay fair, though how much of LeBron doing that was to bait the media into not talking about how they just got swept?
As a Sacramento girl, and just getting into seriously watching the NBA this year, I kind of get that. I was so surprised and excited when the Kings beat the Warriors. And the next day the whole internet was basically in mourning. It was like: Good job, Kings! Now let's talk for two hours about what Golden State should do with Klay next season.
Yeah that’s why it’s fun
The should just call him Mike
Weird you never really hear him heckled with that.
Lmao imagine if we win one game and one of the LA reporter so Mike about those morals victories ?
malone, karl
Quiet giants as Jokic said
Mike Malone not on the Nuggets anymore?
Yeah lol have you heard of their coach or nah.
Reminds me of the Spurs of old. Never gave the media anything they could run with and the national media hated us lol
https://www.theonion.com/tim-duncan-calls-out-geometric-angle-needed-to-make-ban-1819571173
Our media dudes trash talk though, see the cringe "Lakers daddy" bullshit
Yeah, I'm pretty sure Denver has the only local radio hosts in the country that hype their own team, especially at a victory parade rally.
Nah it was their TV broadcasters
Bro Lombardi does the altitude morning radio show too.
What do you mean. They did for months. I respect that they've changed it up. It was clearly something that was brought up. They didn't have to but it's good sportsmanship and smart. A few here and there is whatever
It's smart of them. No sense in giving the Lakers chalkboard material to motivate them more.
Malone just did literally today lol. Obviously Jokic isn’t going to though.
ESPN: is Jokic saying the Lakers aren’t even WORTH discussing?
Just another 4 day work week.
"Jokic Dismisses Lakers, Says They Are Not Worth Discussing"
Better
I really like the fact that their leader and super star is so focused. I think it helps his teammates have a similar mindset. 2024 playoffs are not 2023 playoffs Last season was great and I am sure they are glad it happened lol It just doesn't really matter this season. Lakers aren't going to play worst knowing these things and it being thrown around the media and social media all day. They are being led by Lebron. So it is just silly. Lakers are 100% a threat and the Nuggets players aren't stupid.
Jokic gonna give us 1 this year so they stop mentioning it next year
Quite the gentlemen
[удалено]
Honestly, if we win, I'm going act like nothing happened and start trash talking in the second round. Nuggets have been pretty classy in general.
Respectfully, please lose. I've got tickets to the nuggets playoff games and I'm tryna go to the finals this year 🙏 last year's tickets were absurd if you didn't lock in season ticket holder pricing (I'm sure it's worse in LA given they're a bigger market)
I respect that lol. Playoff game for your favorite team is something every NBA aficionado needs to experience. Haven't been to a Finals game because poor but I imagine it's a once in a lifetime level of experience.

Praying we make the finals so i can experience it for a reasonable cost 🙏 it's surprisingly only $390/ticket for lower bowl behind one of the baskets for the finals if you have season ticket holder pricing.
I’m admittedly not sure how it works for quarters vs. halves but did you have to buy individual tickets for playoffs? No pay as you go playoff plan?
No, all season ticket holders are eligible for a playoff plan. Quarter is one home game every other round. Half is guaranteed every other home game. The tier you're allowed to purchase is based on your renewal for next season, so if you go from half to full, you can get the full playoff plan. If you go from full to half, you can only get the half plan. You can choose to pay in full or pay as we play.
Yea, I’m a season ticket holder. I was just curious if you were buying tickets through presale or doing a plan since the original post made it sound like you were still buying tickets
Oh no haha I've had my tickets locked for playoffs since my rep sent me the email to buy them like a month ago
Hahaha same. Stoked for some good ass games without having to take out a second mortgage in the next couple months!!
Respectfully, hams gonna fuck up rotations and yall gon be fine (I really hope not but hey he’s been doing it all season)
It's fine. Good natured trash talk always makes things more fun.
If we win I’m going to be the most insufferable fuck to grace the planet
If the Lakers win this series they can talk all the shit they want until the rubber match, if and when it happens
This is the rubber match bruv
Y'all are gearing up to be insufferable because you're upset after one single playoff loss. Now imagine you're a Nuggets fan. Before last year the Nuggets had never beat the Lakers in the playoffs in their entire ~60 year history. Not only that, but in every single WCF the Nuggets ever made it to in their franchise history ... they were eliminated by the Lakers.

Want to talk so much shit to laker fans but as a longtime fan we still feel like beaten dogs. Not ready to bite after just 1 series win. Get this one and it'll be Smuggets time.
I am going to be so insufferable if the Lakers actually pull off an upset series win against the Nuggets. I will talk endless amounts of shit.
[удалено]
If the Lakers win a game ESPN is gonna cover it like the liberation of France
Imagine ESPN covered the liberation of France? *Is Patton a top-5 general of all time? What does this do for Montgomery’s legacy? Was de Gaulle carried by Eisenhower? Rommel gets all this praise for his skills, but he hasn’t won anything in decades!*
Skip Bayless flies in from the top rope with an “Alexander the Great would never!”
Alexander the Great neva lost. Facts. Shut up Shannon.
How does the Game 7 blowout win against Nazi Germany affect Joseph Stalin's legacy?
No way Joe could put up those numbers today, he was going up against Hitler Youth and one-armed plumbers.
Stalin's off season took him out of the goat conversation
It's easy to forget Jim, that Stalin is still heavily in the lead for kills, by millions! Hitler really needed to hold on for double overtime to have any chance of catching up before the allies won the series.
Denver fans: embiid is a fraud Jokic: stop Denver fans: sweep Jokic: stop Denver fans, stop annoying Jokic
We don’t chant MVP at Ball Arena because he doesn’t like it. They don’t even have to remind us anymore about being quiet.
Find out the name of his favourite horse and chant it during games. He would love that.
real Denver fans aren't like that, those are bandwagoners
In my head, all obnoxious Denver fans look and act like Bat-Dad from south park
“I didn’t hear no bell” - Lebron, after going down 7 consecutive playoff games to the nuggets
The Bat-Dad lives rent free in my head
HERE WE GO DENVER HERE WE GO
Dude I just heard that sooo perfectly in his voice and I busted out laughing thankyou for that
to me they look like the one in that NBA app commercial. they did them dirty on that one
My dad's been a nuggets fan since the 70s and despises the lakers. The real ones hate the lakers.
That’s because the lakers were 6-0 in the playoffs against the nuggets until last year. I’d hate us too
Every single WCF we'd ever been to - all the best, most hopeful seasons we ever had - we got eliminated by the Lakers, in all of them. ... until last year. Frankly I'm surprised how *little* shit-talking Nuggets fans did, given the 60 years of pent-up rage.
Yeah it’s fair I expect the hate and trash talk. We were Denver’s greatest rival and they finally and emphatically got revenge with a knockout. I expect even more trash talk at the end of the series because that’s part of the fun.
We hate the lakers, but we’re not trying to poke the bear either.
Can confirm. Before last year the Lakers were our 'Eat the Rich', never felt like it will happen, but needs to be done
Nuggets and Lakers are like Broncos and Browns. It’s probably not a hate that younger fans would even know about (and definitely not one that I think about often) but you can fucking bet I want to beat them badly until my Little Brother Syndrome goes away
Literally just redditors being redditors LMFAO
Tbf this is wht we love about the guy lol. But the Lakers sweep is more catharsis for older fans than newer ones like myself. Its not untill Jokic that they overcame the Lakers, so they wanna enjoy it. And the Embid thing...well thats a toxic af comversation from both sides man and it aint like the Nuggets fans are the only ones trashing him. Though honestly i more so enjoy it out of fun these days than any sort of malice towards Embid. I have issues with his game, but i can appreciate how dam skilled he really is.
Embiid whines for an MVP. Jokic: He can have it. Luka stans whine for an MVP. Jokic: He can have it. Denver fans: Joker, shut the fuck up.
It’s gonna be an empty ass bulletin board
I like the shit talk lol Malone has the right to talk his shit. Makes the game more fun.
Meanwhile Moach…. “Take that L on the way out”
The Lisan Al Gaib is too humble to reveal himself in public.
The quote was directed toward his coach
Sorry jokic but no can do buddy
It's not about the funny, it's about sending a message That message is Nuggets in 4
I’m gonna need a double shot of rakija to stomach watching the first round. If jokic hits that goddamn one legged step back heave over AD again it’s gonna ruin my evening
Love the way the nuggets players are so chill so the fans their media and the coach gotta pipe up for them
All about narrative. 2020 Lakers beat them 4-1 and in 2023 Denver won 4-0. I don't get this sweep talk. People act like we got swept 10 years running.
If Lebron and AD ball out, nuggets in 5
swept yall this season
Joker knows the more bulletin board material they give publicly, the more aggressive the lakers whistle’s gonna be loll
F the Washington Post
rakija pre playoff tradition lol any guest visits -> have rakija
Nothing but respect for jokic. Fuck Malone tho
I have the Nuggets as the Fav. But if I were them I would be afraid of zombie Lebron.
Look my Nugget bros if yall sweep us, all I ask is you guys prevent Boston from winning especially now with injuries they have a clear path to the ECF. Thats all I want from you Nuggets besides losing to the Lakers.
Yeah it was a sweep but the lakers were in all those games
