Paul Klee: Warriors blast Nuggets, then Kevin Durant rubs salt in wound | Premium | gazette.com

If there was any kind of silly notion the Nuggets should be positioning themselves for a title run this season, the Warriors crushed it with a merciless and incomparable 51-point first quarter, an NBA record. It was the best I’ve ever seen a basketball team play, at any level, with any players, anywhere. No trade at the deadline will shrink this gap. No offensive makeover will turn the Nuggets into a 2019 contender.

I don't think the top teams see Denver as a threat, and they aren't yet. They're crazy young but the biggest thing for them is the SF position. You aren't winning shyt if Barton is your starting SF he's too small. Craig is nice but he's not a large SF either, and he's streaky on offense. Juancho is a shooter and has the height you'd want to guard a PG, KD, Bron, etc, but Juancho couldn't lock up his bike, much less an elite SF:lolbron:

Denver is right now where I thought they'd be in two years. Everything comes down to MPJ really, and at this point the only pressure on him is to hit jumpers, stay healtht, and be a better defender than Juancho. So if he's healthy Denver could be a real menace in the future:whoo:

All my Barton slander aside I'd take him 10 times out of 10 at SF over what some other teams are trotting out. Looking at Portland:leostare: they need to make a move and stop wasting Lillard and CJs best years

They might break a scoring record next year if MPJ is healthy

Dude is the most underrated comedian in the league...

He still drops no homo sometimes when references other players "size" and "length" :mjlol:


In his second year they'd show this segment during home games called "Joking with Joker" or some shyt like that and it would be a 20 second bit of him cracking the most :skip: jokes, but his delivery, face, and the sheer dryness of the jokes would always have me dead
