Sports just ain't gonna be the same for me in about 15 years lol

Yea, it doesn't get any better than that.

Maybe one day while I'm still alive, my Bulls will finally find their next superstar.

Gotta love this Wolves team. Naz is a guy that took less money because he loves the vibe and the city and the team. The Nuggets are not in a position for a war of attrition.

Connelly haters better be burning receipts on that Gobert trade.

Nothing's official yet, is it? There's still a chance TNT will retain the NBA?

Someone should ask Bob Myers about that one

Sounds more like they were trying to scare the Wolves off :shrug:

So are we still of the idiotic belief that you can't win in the playoffs with Gobert?

Haven’t watched many Twolves games but after watching them tonight Goebert is good defensively but is useless on offense. I don’t even remember if he got an offensive rebound except maybe that put back.

You need rim protectors. You need defense.

I asked this earlier. Take out Draymond from those Golden State teams and replace him with Gobert. Don't tell me the Warriors don't win a couple rings with Rudy. Hell, I'd say they win the exact same number.

I’d hate the Warriors less in that case

Yes you need defense no disagreement. But no way do the Warriors win with Goebert. Draymond brought his defense but he was also the catalyst alot of times for the offense and routinely brings the ball up the court and initiates the play. He is not a prolific scorer but he will get a double-double and is an excellent passer.

Goebert is just taking up space on offense but you guys need him for defense and he played free safety pretty well tonight.

What did you think of Ben Wallace?

Why can't Rudy do what Ben did? He's not as prolific of a defender, but he's waaaay better offensively

Who was the clown that said they couldn't compete with the Nuggets, or some****?

Same. Thunder, Wolves, and Nuggets are my teams. Nuggets got one.

(Cheering for the Pacers (and Magic, maybe?) in the East...)

The Bulls are my actual team but you have to resort to rooting for somebody else when your team is constantly stuck in mediocrity. Never bad enough to load up in the draft, never good enough to win in the playoffs, if they even make it.

You cheered with the same fans as Donkey scum?

It’s time to beat staylor with a branch from the AID’S tree

In a way it's kind of satisfying to take a town that is actually obsessed with the Broncos and say, "No, they can't be good, but you can have the Nuggets, eh?"

I mean, yeah, the Nuggets are great now, but until last year were they even the 3rd most popular team in the Denver area? I'd argue for years Denver sports fans in general favored the Avalanche more. Or even the Rockies, who had been to actual championships

The Broncos are still #1 for them, but they can't be #1. It's kind of delightful watching douches like Garcia on this forum go, "At least we have the Nuggets"

I'll bet Micah Nori gets a coaching job out of this

Wallace would have fit better with GS because Kerr absolutely refuses to play statues for right or wrong.

I have thought for awhile that they needed more size but Kerr is hard headed
