The Non-Jazz NBA Thread in the Jazz Section

I can't remember a time where a player threw an object at the ref during live play. That's the ref that didn't T up Malone as well. Nuggets getting away with **** believe it or not.
I couldn’t believe there was no T on Malone there too.

The most amazing thing in this melt down is KAT hasn’t lost his cool and done something dumb.
 
Minny just play as they play most of the season. Just level up the intensity. But their defesne have been tremendous all year. MCD and NAW are a big part of it. And they have superstar who work hard as well on this part. ANT is a two way player, almost the opposite of Don. Game not over yet but it's nice to watch.
 
He was good enough to put on Spencer Dinwiddie when that dude was killing the Jazz. Quin didn't trust him though.

We coulda shoulda would had McDaniels instead of Dok....but we actually had NAW for real lmao. It's all about Don vs Rudy here, but we don't **** up some of those simple things and it would be an entire different conversation right now.
 
Wolves are long and getting in great contests wherever the Nuggets move the ball.
For sure but there would be a lot more fouls called with a different crew. These guys are letting them play. Favors Minny. Bet they tighten it up.
 
Murray not being 100% against these perimeter defenders and the refs allowing prison ball rules.
This is Murray at his 100% though. He and the rest of this Nuggets team simply been relying on the Jokic offense machine for too long. Nuggets need a second star. A legit star who can generate his own offense. Like a Kyrie Irving or... KD.

It was pretty clear that Royce O'Neale was a bit limited in guarding shifty scoring guards. There wasn't a huge risk in trying Nickeil.
 
Tin foil hat:

NBA wants Edwards to be the new face of the NBA. Silver told refs call a physical game that favors defense knowing that gives the Wolves the best chance to advance.

The problem wasn't on Royce. It was us having him at the 4 spot. Even adding NAW to the perimeter would not have fixed our size deficiency.
