Let’s be honest guys…any team that makes the finals is good. Damn good. This Miami team is no joke. Teams that shoot 50% from 3 can win any game. I’m just glad we have home court Probably the most optimistic post I've ever seen from you. rock was very optimistic during the 2009 run, if my memory doesn't betray me. those failed inbound plays broke him.

I’m happy with the outcome if for no other reason than my son and daughter-in-law get to be at games 1 and 2 at Ball Arena on Thursday and Sunday.
The Nuggets could have beaten either of these teams. The Celtics’ story is told in their 18 assists vs. 15 turnovers. This isn’t new or unique to playing against the Heat, as the Celtics had 97 turnovers in 6 games against the Warriors in the 2022 Finals. Its their Achilles heel, and Brown in particular has proven so far in his career to be a regular season player whose handle is too unreliable to play this big of a role in the playoffs. He seems convinced he’s like Mike — trying to constantly take guys one on one off the dribble — when he should be playing more like MPJ.
Anyway —- Go Nuggets!!!!! Bring on the NBA Finals!

Miami had no chance against the bucks. And won
They had no chance against Boston. And won
How are the nuggets any different? I pray we can find something that works against these guys. Both on offense and defense

Both on offense and defense Boston doesn't have a rotation guy over 6'9" and they have a rookie coach. Milwaukee had Giannis miss a game and change with an injury then play the rest of the series hurt, plus their head coach's brother died suddenly during the series We have Jokic.

If the Heat start small: Jokic on Bam Gordon on Butler KCP on Martin MPJ on Struss Murray on Vincent
If the Heat start big: Jokic on Bam Gordon on Butler MPJ on Love KCP on Struss Murray on Vincent

Thinking... "be careful what you wish for" ... JOKING Not scared of Heat or was of Boston. Denver is the best team in NBA at the moment and if they play the way they are capable of this is going to be a first ring for mighty Nuggets.

Don't underestimate rock's ability to now be terrified of Team Blessed Miami. Let’s be honest guys…any team that makes the finals is good. Damn good. This Miami team is no joke. Teams that shoot 50% from 3 can win any game. I’m just glad we have home court he didn't predict Nuggets getting swept?! we fvckd so... Miami, eh? its 50-50 series at this moment, just like every other series. people forget, after 3-0, Miami and Denver had exactly same record in playoffs. there is something special about that team, you have to admit. Gabe Vincent, Duncan Robinson, Caleb Martin and Max Struss, 4 out of 7 rotation guys are undrafted. other three? Bam was pick no 14, Lowry was 20 something, Jimmy was 30. thats the rotation!!! Spoelstra is freaking wizard, no other explanation.

He was their best player in ECF and really deserved ECF MVP.

Game Thread will be created tomorrow. Nuggets have no excuse to lose this series. The Heat have no one to guard Jokic 1 on 1. Bam is too small. If you use Bam as a roamer you have to guard Jokic with either Kevin Love or Jimmy Butler.
Key to the series is the Heat 3 point shooting. Nuggets need to be smart and disciplined. The Heat cannot beat the Nuggets with 2s in this series. I hope Malone understands that.

I hope Malone understands that.I'm worried Erik Spoelstra is going to vastly outcoach Malone ...Spoelstra is a great coach (top 3 for sure) and a major reason why the Heat are in the NBA Finals I hope Malone is ready and David Adelman is helping him out ...we need it against Spo
