    I get what you're saying, Lillard got his ass saved by CJ big time today though.

    Morey would say McCollum is not an asset.

    Yup, if you don't see how the Rockets are being stubborn and dumb about abandoning the mid-range, then you are just an idiot. Think about current Harden with that 2015 mid-range game, truly beyond unstoppable and perhaps even beating the Warriors.

    Jokic just killed the Nuggets chances.

    Well, I think Denver would live with Turner taking these.

    Not taking mid range shots is like not raising any hands in poker unless you have an ace... it becomes predictable and you won’t win any big pots if the table wises up to your play.

    I’m guessing Morey isn’t a very good poker player. There’s more to the game than equity and pot odds. Same goes with basketball.

    Nuggets are young, they will learn from this.

    Notice Turner went to the rim (this is basketball, not set shots-"HORSE" like the Rockets play)

    Guys who want the ball in their hands in big elimination games. Super jealous

    Well earned Portland. Especially being down big in this game. 2 series won without their starting big. Impressive

    Jokic missed that free throw. They needed that free throw obviously.
