The Denver Nuggets are 1-0.

Undefeated and undisputed.

I didn't know Portland acquired Pau Gasol. Now I don't like them. :p

Portland needs to get rid of Lillard, to be honest. He takes a lot of ill-advised shots and carries a team on his back that is fully capable of winning by themselves.
What a bizarre take. They'd suck without him.
Did you watch the game, tonight? He's become Westbrook.

Did you see McCollum tonight? Imagine him having to carry the offense with nobody else able to create a shot. Their advantage is having two guys who can score in bunches in the backcourt, it's pretty crazy to think cutting into that production somehow helps a team that's limited offensively and doesn't have the athletes on defense. Not only do you not have the pieces to make up for Lillard's scoring, McColllum becomes an even more inefficient player with more defensive attention. That team would be a disaster.

You and me both. Especially after what we did to OKC and Denver who are both of your teams, that was a pathetic outing. They are a bogey team for us and we play them in the playoffs like we know they are the Warriors and as if we think they are unbeatable.

And yeah we need both CJ and Dame at the minute and probably one more piece to take some scoring ownership.

You guys could've easily been up 3-1 in that series and instead you got swept. Every game you led by double digits in the 2nd half and just pissed it away. Couldn't believe it. It was so frustrating.

And one win on the early game and we’d have been ready to rock. But needed composure and a bit of execution. Most frustrating.

Refs absolutely rape the Nuggets to force OT. Unfucking real. How am I surprised?

Lmao. Refs calling Nuggets on fouls and the Suns send the wrong guys to the free throw line because they don't even know who was fouled. Jesus, man...

Just box score perusing and that looks like a truly awful game.

Alexander looked pretty good. That's about it. I think Adams is lost without his little buddy feeding him the ball.

SGA's a freak and still growing.

Salary must be prohibitive or I'd imagine Adams would have been traded by now. Sounds like nobody wants the CP3 contract so that's a weird dynamic.

Triple double for Jokic, Murray missed a couple free throws last night. Uncharacteristic. Dude is usually money-money in the clutch with those free throws.

How do you beat the worst team in the West by a point in your home opener?

Officiating. Plus a couple of actual stupid fouls late, allowing them to force OT.

But also, to the Suns credit, they could not fucking miss in the clutch. And we always beat the GOAT teams and lose to the fucking Sons or Pelicunts.
