OKC wins losable game - Minny loses very winnable game. I have no ability to predict how this ends - lol. If we don't get the 1 seed I just don't want it to be OKC as that would put us on a collision course with the Twolves. Would have been much better had Minny won and OKC lost. The missed and-1 call on Brunson makes that even worse. It’s incredible the calls and non calls Okc gets every game Jokic gets absolutely no respect from the refs. But I’m glad to see that people are finally realizing what I’ve been saying all along about the thunder.

Looks they're very impressive but if they play the Lakers in rnd 1 then they're losing to the 8th seed. Lakers size destroys OKC.

That's why I don't even care where OKC finishes in the standings. I don't feel as if they're a threat to us. Minnesota is. Dallas is. Phoenix is. Those are the only teams that worry me at all. Dallas would be #1 with Minny 2 and Phoenix 3.

Imagine the Nuggets turning a 10pt 4th qtr deficit into a 7pt lead at NY with Jokic on the bench lol

We're looking at a 7 seed with Beal/Booker/KD and an 8 with Lebron/AD. Compare that to the East where your 5 seed is the Orlando Magic and 6 is the Indiana Pacers. It's a joke.

Williams and Giddey 21 for 29 FG. Nuggets players sans Jokic and Murray wouldn't score that unguarded on wide open layups lol

OKC is not going to be the first seed - I can guarantee that.

If I had to watch the Bulls offense on a nightly basis I simply wouldn't watch basketball. Wolves 1 seed on lock. Is what it is. The Bulls and Nuggets went to s**t at the same time, but the Bulls answer the question of "what if the Nuggets just stayed in the Shawful era indefinitely".

A healthy Knicks team would have beat the Thunder last night. OKC is lucky they faced us without OG, Julius and Mitch. They also are playing Philly without Embiid tomorrow. Lucky team. Luck eventually runs out. OKC will flame out in round 1 or 2 -- depending on the matchup.

Good news for you guys. If Embiid plays, decent chance OKC loses on Tuesday.

Would be hilarious to watch 20 minutes of Chet trying to guard Embiid. Really hope he comes back tomorrow. No chance OKC wins @ Boston on the SEGABABA. Boston will be up for that game.

Probably a dumb idea to bring Embiid back this soon, to be honest. The same thing was tried with Timelord and he ended up getting hurt again and then getting the major surgery that he tried to avoid with the meniscus shave that both Embiid and Towns recently had.

Luka is now eligible for a 5/346 superdupermax now that he has reached the 65 game mark.
I think 70m a year should finally put the Luka to Denver fantasy talk to rest.

Good, we don't need that loser here. Lmao I'd really love to know what exactly Luka did to make you dislike him so much. The guy is very clearly a winner as he has already shown in Euro and the NBA.

crackhead take from Tony Kukoc: old.reddit.com/r/nba/comments/1brqd33/toni_kukoc_despite_the_statistics_jokic_isnt_at/what would inspire Tony Kukoc to say something so patently imbecilic? obviously he isn't motivated by Croat nationalism since he name drops Divac, a Serb, as better than Jokic. is it just a boomer doing boomer things? and I had to google who the f "Dino Radja" is. apparently he played a grand total of 4 seasons for the Boston Celtics at a time when only Bill Simmons watched the Celtics. never made an ASG, made the playoffs once where he drastically underperformed (compared to his regular season numbers). never scored over 20PPG and had a TS% of .538. maybe he had an impressive run in Europe playing against Facu's dad but this was not overly impressive stuff.

Good, we don't need that loser here. April Fool's? I would love to see Doncic and Jokic play together from a fan perspective. Maybe it would boost the NBA "product".
