Larry Nance running from the ball after his own dunk lol
Jokic is when you put Larry Bird in a Center’s body (less the 3pA)
Valanciunas attempted to flop 5 times in these highlights alone, fucking embarrassing
If Zion is your best player
The strategy is let him bully to the rim
Box out
Let him have 22 2pt attempts
You hit a few 3s
You’ll win
But if Zion can be more of a player maker point guard in the half court they would be better
Look to pass 1st open the game up
You have to take 2 3s a game to build reps Zion
They literally just let all the pels get layups
4:24–Think of all the other Centers throughout History: Now, imagine them-making that pass…
Imagine seeing Shawn Bradley try to make that pass…
You would black out from laughter.
Jokic is unbelievable so damn good a true legend 😮😮
NEW ORLEANS CENTER SO SLOW HE HAS BIRDS NESTING IN HIS HAIR
Imagine if Zion was healthy and in shape this dude would be dominating every game
karna6634 would cherish 5 minutes of deep A2M from Joel Embiid, if ya know what I mean…💩>
for all that $$$$, Zion should play a little defense. 3 of Gordon's dunks were while ZW completely walked away from the paint(who the hell are you guarding out on the wing??)
What I don’t get is that jokic doesn’t have 1 40 point game, but he’s more valuable than the one who has to regularly score high numbers to compete. Flowers to jokic for being so dominant because he is, but giannis is way more valuable it should be clear as day. For an assist to work, that player that is passed the ball now needs to make the shot/lay. That is just as much up to him as it was jokic passing the ball before hand. That’s really great teamwork, but that’s just showing how good the team can be. Yes it’s also jokic getting them open looks, but you are way more valuable if you are needing to be the one to score every single night for ur team while carrying the load on the defensive end. No brook isn’t BETTER THAN GIANNIS, don’t even start that.
Mcullom is a bust
Zion has to get those rebounds up so he can be the Round Mound of Rebound II.
Zion is still fat.
In month of January Bi scoring is sucks.What happened to him ?! I don't see him aggressiveness back last year
Fuck you jokic bad moves
This was a reminder game to naysayers after the blowout loss in Utah…
The title still goes through Denver
I think this is the most complete team in the NBA today, good defensive wings, everybody can shoot decent and you have a reliable superstar with a great attitude. Sometimes its these simple things that can make champions.
Denver still the best team in the nba
The Nuggets look like the Globetrotters right now. They are such a deep team too, no one on the team played more than 34 minutes.
James Murray, I'm sorry but I don,t see No-team, in the League including The Celtics , Bucks, Or Philly, beaten This Nuggets team in a 7–Game series for the N.B.A CHAMPIONSHIP FINALS, 🏆 Outside of The Clippers The Pelicans had been playing really good but this Nuggets Team made them Look really Bad, The Pelicans will just be a Playoff team at best There almost complete but their just still missing something ? 🤔
They are too good of a team not to be able to figure it out.GOOD WIN FOR THE ( WORLD CHAMPS ) IM GIVING THE NUGGETS TEAM SOME STARS 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Fun fact: the Denver Nuggets have had 5 starters in double figures more than any team in the NBA this season.
Denver sure is electronic!
Zion looks like a fat thumb on the court 😂
Awesome Game! 😃
Those assists by Jokic can really kill the other team.
Foreign players done took over the nba😂
