Game Thread PLAYOFFS: ROUND 1, GAME 3: NUGGETS @ BLAZERS - MAY 27, 2021 - THURSDAY, 7:30, NBATV & NBCSNW

[PCmor7]

This is why you don't phone a game in and get satisfied when you win one game on the road.

1. You never know if you're going to have a bad shooting night later in the series.

2. The ease of which we let the Nuggets win Game 2 made them believe they had a chance.

 

[TBpup]

Has anyone seen CJ? Did he show up to the game or am I just blind?

He is chucking up a lot of bricks...

 

[AldoTrapani]

Man this is sad

 

[AldoTrapani]

Damn Austin rivers had Dame on locks rigjt there

 

[MadeFromDust]

The good news is this may be the last playoff series we have to see Stotts in. I would say the same for CJ but good luck finding any takers with that contract of his.

 

[Titan]

Denver 12-19 from three. We all know the 3 ball is a big deal in today’s NBA, but our coach just doesn’t care about defending it

 

[SlyPokerDog]

FUCK YES!

 

[Shaboid]

FUCK YES!

Spoiler alert!

 

[VenomXL]

Great sequence to end the half. Need that juice in the second half.

 

[TBpup]

Kent sometimes says stuff that makes you wonder if he really ever did play basketball in college.

 

[Scalma]

Love watching the sideline shots of Stotts looking confused it’s sick

 

[AldoTrapani]

Nice finish but garbage 1st half

 

[beast blazer]

To only be down 5 id huge. But blazers need to be much better in the 2nd half

 

[Titan]

Better close out for the 2nd this time around

 

[illmatic99]

Those 4-1 predictions are looking a bit silly now

i said 4-1 denver

 

[Mr. Robot]

bench points

3.20

Pondering his 'halftime speech'.

"We just gotta' make shots."

 

[42N8Bounce]

Good finish to the half!

We’ve got to keep this energy up! I like the hustle I’m seeing from Nurk and Norm. We just need to hit a few more shots (CJ, Melo).

 

[Mr. Robot]

also, terry stotts, cj mccollum, carmelo and kanter can go fuck themselves

 

[Titan]

FUCK YES!

Why you have to be typing from the future, LOL

 

[illmatic99]

nurk played that whole quarter after sitting 5 in the first half. we have to buy him like 8 mins of rest. need RHJ or Roco to go small here.

NO MORE KANTER

 

[Dom McBlazer]

Decent ending. Nothing more, nothing less. Only down by 5 despite CJ, Melo, and Kanter.

 

[James lamphear]

Well we down 5 I guess we can say we are lucky just down that's much. Dame another big half and CJ put up a lot shot's to get his. Nurk and Powell better game. The bench is a no show.

 

[Chris Craig]

We need CJ and Melo to show up in the 2nd half.

 

[crandc]

Good end to the half

WTF happened to the bench?

Need to come out strong second half.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

four times Nurk played too far off Jokic when Jokic was behind the three point line. Two times Jokic hit threes, two times he had room to drive past. It's frustrating. Nurkic needs to be up on his toes and focused every minute.

 

[crandc]

CJ actually had a pretty decent half.

 

[illmatic99]

bench points

3.20

i mean... melo was like the only bench player who shot the ball

 

[illmatic99]

CJ actually had a pretty decent half.

15 shots for 14 pts. missed a ton of open 3s

 

[B-Roy]

All our starters are around 20 minutes. Denver’s starters are around 17.

Hey terry, there are other guys on the bench that won’t hemorrhage points.
