No it’s literally so hard to listen to … the way most people wait for pauses in conversation as a cue before they start talking, Tim Bontemps waits for one of his cohosts to begin speaking as a cue for him to interrupt them. That he does this with a voice and vocal intonation that makes a dying geese sound harmonious, makes it really hard to listen to his usually correct, logical basketball opinions.

Jamal Murray feels like, because he won it all once, all is due to him. He's flashy at times, but rarely puts in the effort, is not careful with the ball... It's time Malone shakes him up

Thank you so much 💎

JMcD is a problem for Murray, who is now health-compromised in a series where Denver quit in three games opting to extend the series. Jokic needs to - ironically - score and dominate Q1 like Shaq for denver shooters to wakeup

@Nugschris

20 күн бұрын

Yeah mcdaniels is a problem for murray. But jokic just has to draw the double team and find the open shooter. Bad shooting games happen but I doubt the nugs will shoot 30% on mostly wide open shots at home.

​@Nugschris Interesting stat I saw on TNT during halftime after the Wolves dominated the half and were up 20pts: Denver: 4 for 21 (from 3) Minnesota 5 for 21 (from 3) I've been hearing a lot of that from Denver fans, that they had a bad shooting night that's why they lost. Stats show both teams were having a bad shooting night, one just plays defense at a high level and doesn't rely on always making shots.

@Nugschris

20 күн бұрын

@weights250 just statistically, the nugs don't shoot 30% for a game very often. Most of their shots were wide open especially in the 1st half. Wolves doubled jokic and dared the rest of the team to shoot, and they missed. If you can't admit that you are not worth debating. Sure, the wolves outplayed the nugs and probably would have won anyway, but that doesn't change the fact the nugs had an off shooting night. Even coach finch talked about it post game so argue with him about it. That crowd had something to do with it, I'm sure. Nugs fans get to return the favor on Sunday.

@@Nugschris Good series. Came down to the very end. Battle of two totally different styles of play. Nuggets heavily rely on offense and making shots while the Wolves heavily rely on constant defensive pressure using a full 8-man rotation. The Nuggets once again missed a bunch of "wide open shots" as they did all series, due to fatigue from MN hounding defense. With that said, Joker is still the best player of the series by far, and the Nuggets will be back. He just needs some help.

Why no discussion on the Celtics!? They're the best team in the east and the only 2nd round team to close out in 5 and they don't even get a 5 minute discussion??

17:00 Game 7 will come down to the supporting players. For the Wolves, that means it’s Jaden McDaniels, Naz Reid, and Mike Conley…and KAT avoiding stupid fouls. For the Nuggets, it’s Gordon, Braun, KCP & Jackson.

@mattk720

So basically, for the Wolves, what that means is anyone not named Anthony Edwards making a significant contribution 😂

Why is that dude keep interrupting Windy. It is soooo annoying.

I have probably watched 90 percent of Hornet's games over the last 3 years. Washington was a totally frustrating player. He would score 40 one night, then the next night would score 2. He had 40 points his first nba game ever. He was known for getting on massive hot streaks on 3s, but could never be consistent. Go look at the stats and see how many times he hit 4 or 5 or more threes in a game. There a lot of them. So none of this is a surprise to anyone who has watched him, but the flip side is that there are a bunch of 1 for 10s coming.

Tim MacMahon doesn't know what The Matrix is 🥴...my God where has this man been?

I feel little bad about Windhorst. Dude is killin himself... Does he sleep? Does he rest? Wish you good, man!

Game 1 is more indicative of what I'd expect in game 7

He said the Thunder series comes down to PJ Washington 🤣 Mavs defense winning this series. Luka & Kyrie scoring all time personal lows and winning. Not PJ. Terrible take.

Bontemps at times looks like he's about to cry proving his stats.

If refs let both teams scratch and claw game 7, I'm putting money on the Wolves. Joker's shoulders and arms about to be all clawed up 😁...but when the Wolves aren't having live ball turnovers, Denver can't really create momentum. Wolves need to keep turnovers down and stay even keel.

A hyperextended elbow SUCKS. He should have been on the bench after that but his heart convinced everyone to keep him in the game. Brutal in all ways.

Kind of want Nuggets to win so Tatum can beat an all time player in the finals but at the same time if the nuggets get eliminated it’s basically an absolute lock Tatum wins his first chip and finals mvp

We better close the OKC in Game 6. Let’s go Mavs!

No mention of Josh giddey getting benched

DM is heading to Texas to be Wemby's #2.

So interesting to say Mobley isn’t a 4 because he doesn’t fit next to Allen. What about a big that can shoot? He’s too skinny to not have a big defender next to him.

Jared Allen to Charlotte for the number 6 pick and whatever else, if anything, it takes to make it work?

Denver literally didn't even try to compete. I know when you get the "memo" from the league to ease up you're supposed to sell it lol. They simply shut down and made it look like EXACTLY what it was!! Maybe that was the Nuggets way of saying to the league without actually saying to the league...."there...now you have your game 7".

Windhorst is 1st rate!

If Denver win game 7 you guys not going to complain that Murray is injured. he plays when is team beat the Lakers .stop it.

Buzz cut crew stand up🥲

The thing ab playing McConnell more is that he is going 100% all the time and when he plays heavy minutes his effectiveness goes down. I like him playing around 25-30 minutes. More than that and it is diminishing returns!

Yall really have to stop worrying about the knicks being tired....smh McBride is a great shooter especially when he STARTS. When he has the green light, he can get HOT....ALSO for the umpteenth time Nesmith was NOT some god send defender on Brunson.... Brunson was just off... LGK!!

Tim Bontemps must be stopped. Someone save him from himself. It’s as if he waits for one of his cohosts to begin speaking as a cue for him to talk over them. His voice sounds like a goose enduring something horribly painful. This makes it really hard to listen to his usually correct, logical basketball opinions. Someone get him a vocal coach and a shock collar for every time he barks over someone speaking.
