Nurk should have been out of the game five minutes ago, he is playing slow and tired.

 

[craigehlo]

What is Stotts thinking?

 

[Natebishop3]

That’s what we needed. A Melo iso.

 

[AldoTrapani]

Collapse coming

 

[crandc]

Oh ffs. I mean refs making it clear, absolutely will not call foul on Jokic bur breathe on him and free throws.

 

[AldoTrapani]

What is Stotts thinking?

Fuck Stotts but what the hell did he do ? He’s not the one playing the game

 

[Strenuus]

Good God. This league is way too predictable.

 

[Cugel]

I am so glad this is Terry's last game.

 

[Natebishop3]

Fire Terry! Clapclapclapclapclap.

Fire Terry! Clapclapclapclapclap

 

[illmatic99]

i don't think i can hate anyone more than i hate stotts.

that was the PERFECT place to use a challenge. save 3 pts and a foul on nurk, but he does this shit.

fuck this guy man.

 

[Cugel]

14-4 run and no fucking timeout. Idiotic. Fucking idiotic.

 

[Strenuus]

I am so glad this is Terry's last game.

Nah we're winning tonight.

 

[Almir]

this decision by Stots to not chalenge Nurks foul is the key mistake in this match which will costs us. We will lose this match that was a key negative moment.

This coach is the biggest shit in this league. I fuck him. Fuck him. fuck him

 

[PCmor7]

Dumbest team in the NBA.

Count Nurk as one of the players I don't want back. He's great fit when he's in there. But he can't stay in there. Just so dumb.

 

[calvin natt]

That is a FOR SURE 3pts saved AND foul saved. GOD DAMNIT

Huh no

 

[crandc]

Like @Strenuus said, can't get comfortable.

 

[craigehlo]

Not challenging that flop was huge momentum changer

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Jesus, it's like the NBA wants this series over.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

why didn't idiot challenge; of course why is Nurk so late?

Now our next problem, Olshey didn't sign another big who could guard Jurkic and Stotts never developed a team defense strategy for times when Nurk is out.

 

[Strenuus]

Like @Strenuus said, can't get comfortable.

Not when we are known for cold stretches.

 

[Strenuus]

Travis about to blow a gasket lmao.

 

[Strenuus]

This reffing is a joke. I mean, this reffing is for jokic.

 

[crandc]

Going to need Dame time.

 

[Natebishop3]

Use your damn challenge Stotts. Wtf

 

[VenomXL]

These refs are TRASH

 

[PCmor7]

He did. After they didn't call when he shoved Nurk, he realized he could get away with it. He should have 4 fouls at least.

And now Nurk has four fouls.

Of course, if Stotts challenged the phantom call on the Jokic 3, Nurk might only have 3 fouls. That bit of overconservativeness on Stotts' part cost us 3 points and a foul on Nurk and then Nurk gets his 4th being stupid on the other end with the one really strong drive he's made this game.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Dame Dolla Dinner!

 

[Shaboid]

M nuggets before the 4th quarter.

 

[Dom McBlazer]

THAT'S NOT AN AND-1?????????

 

[Strenuus]

This may be the worst officiated quarter I've ever seen.
