@byesline RE: Nuggets took on personality of Adelman. There is an old saying: I would rather have a group of kittens led by a lion, than a group of lions led by a kitten. (Feel free to use that on the show) LOL
@byesline Fire everyone, blow up the team. Nuggets have ruined everything. Didn't want to pay Connolly, fired Malone, replaced with cheapest option. Team has not spirit. Unreal.
Jamal Murray and Nikola Jokic had their EIGHT playoff game with each recording 25 PTS, 5 REB and 5 AST 🔥
This ties Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen for the most instances by a duo in NBA playoff history 👀
Nathan MacKinnon finishes the season with 97 even-strength points
The most since Wayne Gretzky’s 103 in 1990
He also finishes as the league leader in both goals (53) and +/- (+57)
He led the Avs to the Presidents Trophy and franchise record 119 point season
MVP

A group of media members, league insiders, and scouts were polled on the best player in the world:
— Nikola Jokic: 35 votes
— SGA: 10 votes
— Wemby: 8 votes
— Luka Doncic: 0 votes
— Giannis: 0 votes
(via @StephNoh, h/t @TheNBABase)
Jokic this year:
More assists per game than Steve Nash’s 2006 MVP.
More rebounds per game than Giannis’ 2019 MVP.
More points per game than Steph’s 2015 MVP.
More steals per game than five of last seven MVP winners.
Nobody else alive can do that. Nobody.
