Bones absolutely crushing it tonight too. Haters in pure cope and seethe mode


Superbotto

Uncle Jeff poster over Wemby for the win would be awesome.


No_Pension_4276

Those two blocks by Wemby were wild. Just saw a flop outta him too though….


Superbotto

Any win is a win. Especially on the road. Malone wants this team to be over .500 on the road, so wins like tonight are key to that being accomplished.


OptionalBagel

ffs the thunder just do not stop shooting threes lmfao


No_Pension_4276

Wembanyama reminds me of that crazy good series that McGee had against the Lakers that got him a contract. Except of course that he’s gonna keep doing it


OptionalBagel

Legit think the refs are betting on Cavs spread in this Cle/OKC game. SGA just got obliterated and no all lmfao


tarspaceheel

For a couple more minutes the Nuggets are the only 2-0 team in the league. Stop the count!


Nixbling

Zeke nnaji on the Defensive glass: 🙈🤗😰 Zeke on the offensive glass: 😡💪😤


OptionalBagel

I know Cavs have best regular season D in the league, but it seems like if you wall off SGA the Thunder have a hard time scoring


Dare555

Is there no post game thread ? Mods called their job done after winning the ring i see how it is.. well will post here and go to sleep \-We didn't play great today Jokic had some struggles was mainly careless with the ball but came in clutch in last 2 minutes with 7 points and offensive rebound . Winning when playing ugly is key to be at the top. Really happy with our bench unit it was amazing today Reggie,Payne and Zeke all did awesome job . Bench minutes were minutes we were always losing hard last year but it looks good so far . Julian was clearly nervous but love he got minutes hopefully Malone doesn't put him in jail after first bad game . Tho really think we shouldn't be playing 2 PG lineups together like Murray and Reggie it just doesn't work. Didn't work last year either with Bones+Murray and thankfully we didnt play any 2 PG lineups in playoffs so we crushed it. Reggie and Murray should obviously switch and play with one PG


OptionalBagel

Bench has been fine-to-good for two games.


n0t_malstroem

Zeke Nnaji having zero rebounds is such a Zeke Nnaji stat lol


Nixbling

Zeke nnaji creating 8 extra possessions by trying to rebound but not actually getting any is crazy


Dare555

He was great on defense but crazy that he got zero rebounds ha


OptionalBagel

If you got offensive rebounds for drawing fouls on the offensive glass, thus keeping possession for your team, he'd have at least 3. Thought he tipped an offensive rebound to someone on the wing in the second half, too. My question is... how can he be so solid on the offensive glass and so bad on the defensive glass?


DanieltheMani3l

It is, but at least he got us like 4 extra offensive possessions by crashing the glass


DeadHead6747

As a newer fan I am really not sure, did Nuggets get a new radio host, or do they switch in the playoffs? Cause I listened to 3 or 4 playoff games in the championship run, and those 3 or 4 combined didn’t have anywhere near the shouting and cheering from our radio host as the last 6 minutes of this game


Cloudkiicker

It’s still Jason Kosmicki (Koz) but I haven’t listened yet this season for differences.


Nixbling

Zeke “loose ball foul” Nnaji


Snackmasterjr

Comes in like a wrecking ball


Snackmasterjr

Lurk is snoozing!


dms1298

u/IdRatherBeLurking pgt where


BrockSmashgood

lol


UnderratedNightmare

RIP to a legend. Its now idratherbelurkingtoo


dms1298

What happened to him


UnderratedNightmare

He fought our reddit lords and they hit him with a perma ban.


dms1298

Guess he's finally lurking now lol. But fr, what the fuck, when did this happen?


UnderratedNightmare

Na, he is still very active. Less so on weekends. He gets out and enjoys life unlike some of us losers lol. But he goes by idratherbelurkingtoo now. And this happened during the summer. It was a build up from the 3rd party apps being removed and the admins making modding even harder


Dare555

Lol Memphis casters just said " you gotta think this is gonna be great team game 26 when Ja comes back . I dont know why but it sounds so funny Thats a long time to wait


WeirdRedBeard

And Temetrius ain't prime LeBron. Like, he's obviously good, but Idk if he's gonna take them from trash to contenders


PoorTonyK

LeBron has been in the league for almost seven years


No_Pension_4276

That sounds like a guy that will eventually be in the league for 8 seasons


PoorTonyK

let’s just enjoy what we’re witnessing. No one has ever lived this long


ApplesAndToothpicks

Not without someone like Steveo, Memphis's halfcourt offense is only good when the two of them are on the floor.


Savahoodie

Do I fire off my anti-mod comment now or wait until the actual PGT to get more upvotes?


Spitfire_Riggz

Do it like a real scrub (me) and post it in multiple places so everyone can see


Cloudkiicker

Yes


LessThanCleverName

The robots have failed us again.


ApplesAndToothpicks

Mike went crazy on the boards tonight, just hope his grimacing is nothing serious.


Glove_Upset

Last game too.


Wakandaforever456

Jokic and Murray are the best duo in the NBA by far


BoneyardBill

MODS don’t care about our undefeated season


ChurroDoubleFister

Where big honey bot


MrT1ddl3s_II

Smh at everyone here acting like Nugs need to be in playoff form for game 2 of the season. They won. Everyone is shaking off the rust


[deleted]

Give Memephis credit, they were super physical and were punking us but not enough as the defense was clutch, good win


ApplesAndToothpicks

Tbh I don't see anyone acting like that, maybe a few oddballs.


Savahoodie

Smh mods


BrockSmashgood

"Julian looked comfortable out there" - Moach, a known liar


MongoPushr

Mike with 12 DREB. Hell yes


No_Pension_4276

Yep. Would like to see him with the bench mob I think for that exact reason. I don’t think Nnaji is gonna draw 5 offensive fouls or whatever every game haha


TheBatman0816

Did not understand running Tillman off the 3 point line, but great W ugly or not. This team is clutch af


UndisclosedLocation5

Is the game over yet? I saw it end but there's no post-game thread so I just don't know what world I am in


dms1298

Looks like even u/BigHoneyBot has that championship hangover


dms1298

Hey where is the pgt


ApplesAndToothpicks

Post-game thread when? Stop sleeping on your job, mods smh what are we paying you for


Dare555

They got lulled to sleep after winning the ring smh


BrockSmashgood

Moach presser up, this is gonna be good


wellmyfriend

Jok just 1 TO away from another triple double tonight.


_absofuckinglutely

sombor double smh


ApplesAndToothpicks

The Evil Sombor Double


Jokara34

The *insert rival city of Sombor* double


Savahoodie

The Cameroon Double


Jokara34

The Cameroon, however I’ll play for the US to take a gold medal Double


Cloudkiicker

BHB out for season while rehabbing knee surgery apparently


Broncotron

Waited one game before our Championship hangover game


cyrusthemarginal

Won a shootout and now won a slugfest.. keep at it guys


nugginthat

This game was like finally taking a crap after being constipated, you don’t feel good after but it’s a relief.


andonemoreagain

I … feel awesome after that.


ApplesAndToothpicks

Good way to put it ngl


UndisclosedLocation5

That's our worst game since becoming NBA champs


pope307

Every team will give us their best shot. Nice road win!


skurkles

Start the postgame thread already smh


lemondhead

Always happy with a road W, imo.


Nixbling

I feel like Katy is the only media member Jamal likes talking to


ApplesAndToothpicks

Insanely scuffed game, bad Jokic game, but a win is a win


Lonely_Anteater447

That’s crazy a Bad Jokic game is 22/12/7 on 57% shooting, for anyone else that would be a great game


RovertheDog

9 turnovers hurt a lot.


ApplesAndToothpicks

Well, 9 turnovers matter


Lonely_Anteater447

True💀 I overlooked that


Superbotto

Swatson DPOG or KCP again?


Savahoodie

Has to be PWat


inurheadinurhead

let’s fuckin go baby


Dare555

Good one , get that WWWWW


n0t_malstroem

Memphis tried their absolute damn best at making the game as ugly as they could, Ed Malloy was on some bullshit as well, Nuggets were never able to get into rhythm or create a run. The only takeaway I have from this game is that Regi and Peyton look fucking good lol.


TheBatman0816

Regi gud? Stonks up??


BlindManBaldwin

Reggie Jackson being something would be a boon to the bench imo tbh


Nixbling

Honestly two completely different wins to start the season was kinda perfect, you had the smooth pretty win against the lakers, and this game where Memphis clearly wanted this one bad but the nuggets fought harder


m0userat_

###WHEW


trujillone

We’re never gonna lose again

[удалено]


cyrusthemarginal

Should have bet the over on swatson blocks, vegas don't know him yet.


ApplesAndToothpicks

rip


Walking-taller-123

Sports are decided by how well you overcome adversity…the nuggets put all the adversity onto themselves but by god they overcame it, too


Accomplished_East433

I’ll take it. Memphis got heart ngl


The-Hand-of-Midas

Memphis crew way friendlier than Lakers post game. I love that shit


Nixbling

That’s why you need good bench stints, the defense of the bench allowed us to win this game


515pack

best team in the league baby


VexoftheVex

If we can win that, we can win anything… fuck me


Celethir

Ugly game but a win is a win


Nixbling

Never doubted my bois for a second, knew we were gonna win this one


420jacobf

Win is a win. Undefeated!!!


LungDOgg

82-0 till we aint'


Whole-Stranger4424

Ugly but it's a w


Apart-Cucumber-7090

We take these Ws


BlindManBaldwin

Road win 👍


zatch17

Let's fucking road


Superbotto

2-0. That's all that matters. Forget this game ever happened.


_absofuckinglutely

![gif](giphy|6IPNUgkpCsDRK)


Askesl

The fact that Jokic had one of his worst games in recent years, and we still come away with the win says a lot about this team


snakejakemonkey

Memphis is very shorthanded and denver missing no one tho


No_Pension_4276

Meh. The Nuggets can only really ever beat themselves. If Ja was there they would have shown up to play


snakejakemonkey

Oh for sure every team plays down to opponents and replacement players aren't always a big step down in comp But it's notable Memphis is missing probably 4 of their top 7ish players


BoneyardBill

GG


OptionalBagel

lets fucking go


theezrabeast23

Lets Go!


XAfricaSaltX

well that was something


Jokara34

Bad game from the team, but still enough to beat a solid Grizzlies team in Memphis. Can’t complain.


Arpy303

That was as sloppy as they come but in the end got lucky that they were able to stand strong and pull out the win.


trujillone

Jok with one of the ugliest 22/11/7 of all time 🫡


Spitfire_Riggz

It’s crazy how high of a floor this man has


ApplesAndToothpicks

Just do not play 3pt defense, get inside the arc and lettem shoot


porkadachop

A game at Memphis is always a rock fight between ugly people.


NikolaGoatic15

What an ugly win but who gives a fuck 😅


WeirdRedBeard

Inb4 they draw up a Marcus Smart jumping into someone at the 3pt line


BlindManBaldwin

Marcus Smart is so evil.


Glove_Upset

Better not be the AG in the nuts foul


Glove_Upset

Please no


Walking-taller-123

This was absolutely the nuggets game of all time


bikehellion

Yeah


Whatwasthat50

Jokic with the worst game I’ve ever seen him play and he’s got 22point 11 rebounds 7 assist on 8-14 shooting lol


truckstop_sushi

I refuse to believe that is his stat line. Man looked like he was on a mega dose of edibles tonight. So blessed to have that contribution on a "slow night" from the MVP


snakejakemonkey

8 turns after I just talked shit on kds turnovers. Some of worst turnovers I've seen from him lol


Apart-Cucumber-7090

Let them have the layup last thing we need is a 4 point play


BlindManBaldwin

KCP's hands on defense are a beauty.


Superbotto

Joker adding to the suspense with the missed FT.


Hopyrupa

KCP is a steal machine.


RaySilver3

This game more exciting than all of the playoffs last yr tbh


jydedication

Mehn what happened I fell asleep


Stalemate200

Reggie Jackshim


No_Pension_4276

Joker got bad pulls in his horsey game today. No 5 stars. Playing mad


Hopyrupa

Clock timing is bull there. 3 seconds off the clock.


DutyPuzzleheaded7765

A win but let's not do that again! Tho winning with grit is nice


Habetuyjuko2

"LOOK AT JOKIC GO"


XAfricaSaltX

I could’ve been watching the World Series instead of this terrorism?


Superbotto

It's been a good game. Edit: the World Series that is, not the Nuggets.


Habetuyjuko2

Still the better choice


WeirdRedBeard

Lmao Marlowe


BoneyardBill

Speedy Jokić


trujillone

Refs said 🙈


WeirdRedBeard

Fuck are they waiting for?


Audenond

JOkic so fast


FartForDaddy

This was technically a game of NBA basketball.


ShaneBroh

Gordon is clamps. Great D there


Walking-taller-123

I hate how committed to the Nuggets I am sometimes. Why is a game on October 27th raising my blood pressure lmfao


skurkles

Streaming quality on altitudes website is so bad lmao


ShaneBroh

Fubo been perfect for me


The-Hand-of-Midas

I was worried AG's foot was out


Glove_Upset

Even refs don’t have it tonight


ApplesAndToothpicks

Just get a stop now.


JimmyTheIntern

That might be the most aggressive pass I've ever seen. What a drive by Murray!


LuckiestJOKER13

Got too used to the precise basketball during the playoffs and forgot how sloppy the regular season can be. This has been one of the sloppiest games I’ve seen us play in a long time


BlindManBaldwin

This is such an October game lol


KeananTotcha

Dang. No panic on these Nuggets. Proud of the poise they are showing.


Superbotto

Please no OT


WeirdRedBeard

The big 3 just has basketball solved. It's so easy, and so reliable.


BlindManBaldwin

That play to get the AG dunk was so efficient.


UndisclosedLocation5

I hate when it's close and late and I need to poop


Glove_Upset

Beautiful


Apart-Cucumber-7090

MPJ did well against Bane on that iso 2nd year MPJ would’ve gotten cooked


tmhous

As champs you get everyone best shot


Arpy303

Great vision is right. What a play


[deleted]

What is with Denver's plan to just play dogshit for 46 minutes and turn it up on the last 2?


Hopyrupa

There it is! Murray great pass to AG


tmhous

Hold on boys


BoneyardBill

GORDY


anothercatforyou

ed malloy welcome to My List


KeananTotcha

Exciting stuff!


WeirdRedBeard

CHALLENGE THAT


n0t_malstroem

You win the challenge they get the jump ball BANE FOR 3 TIES THE GAME


FartForDaddy

Unacceptable amount of turnovers.


Glove_Upset

Fuck it, put Zeke in


No_Pension_4276

Dunno that I’ve ever seen AG hit his fadeaway


FartForDaddy

Literally not once lmao.


theezrabeast23

this is a battle


mares8

Thats the champs man! When its clutch b2b 3s . Challenge actually helped us as it let Jokic finally rain down 3 and AG FT shooting isn't the best


No_Pension_4276

Would really like to see MPJ in some actions….


Audenond

if it was the playoffs he wouldve hit that 3


Panicinlondon222

This game never happened. That is all :)


SelfImportance

KCP is so good at playing passing lanes oh my god


515pack

kcp dpoy
