    Jokic definitely came to play and didn’t look scared of the moment. Rest of the team...o_O

    Ladies and Gents, we got ourselves the First 7 Game series!

    Puny Nuggets. Decent Spurs.

    Denver will probably win Game 7 at home. But Portland will beat them.

    The Nuggets are the most inconsequential 2 seed I can ever remember. They're going 7 against a 48 win team, and nobody is even surprised.

    Utah would have easily come out of this trash side of the bracket.

    Pop got some mad coaching skills. I call Spurs for game 7.

    Spurs will never die apparently, Derrick White? Jakob Peoltl? Bryn Forbes? I dont even know any of these guys, but they contributed a lot in destroying the Nuggets.

    Spurs will beat the Nuggs and might even crush the Blazers, Pops is the best tactician in history and they actually have decent bigs, Blazers lost Nurkic and Kanter has a separated shoulder. How crazy will it be to face the full strength Spurs after Rox beat GSW and used up everything they got?

    If the Rox dont take care of business they might be handing Pops his 6th ring.

    I'd be worrying about Bucks if we managed to get past Warriors. I do not think any of the Nuggets/Spurs/Blazaers would give us troubles.

    Denver lost this series the moment they tried to game the seeding.

    This is a big reason why I'd rather the Rockets avoid Pop. Not that I think we'd lose against them. More that it feels we always lose something after playing them

    Did we forget about the beatdown from just 2 years ago that Popavich orechestrated? Eliminated/embarrassed us at home 114-75, Harden had the most pathetic game of his life and Kawhi didn’t even play.

    Young team with minimal playoff experience in game 7? I don’t think I can bet against Pop on this one. I’ll be disappointed if he doesn’t have something masterminded. I think Denver being at home could actually hurt them as well. I’ll forecast heavy pressure on the Nugs and lots of nervous energy from the crowd.

    Unlike Harden, Jokic shows up in big games and isn't a choke artist.

    You must be a Lin fan. This post doesn’t make any sense at all.
