    He also got in Harris face while Harris front him. Usually to off set everything they gave both guys T.

    Frankly, I'm glad there will be no suspensions. Absent an actual physical altercation, suspensions are over-kill and unfair to the fans. The only person they should consider suspending is Jokic.

    Should been a foul on Jokic for his 6th foul. But hell the referees was missing fouls left and right last night. Actually that was close to fragrant 1.

    I wasn't talking about the time-out. I was talking about your repeated claim you didn't see Murray involved when he's clearly in the video you posted

    I don't want any player suspended. I want Portland to beat Denver when the Nuggets are at full-strength while the Blazers are playing without Nurkic. I don't want the Nuggets and their fans to have any excuses

    I am too. What I don't like is the lack of consistency in how they enforce their rules.

    You must be a lot like me; I don't take a compliment very well either. :)

    I'm actually interested in just your first question. I feel like I've seen Jokic using both arms/hands to push people (mostly Kanter) in the post constantly, and I thought that using a 2nd hand was supposed to be an automatic foul.

    I am fine with no suspensions, but wanting to play teams at full strengths so there aren't any excuses.......that is fine but its not like there will be an asterisk by our victory if we win the series. The vast majority of fans will forget in 30 days.

    I want Murray to play because he is banged up and I would prefer he play hurt rather than someone else coming in off the bench and having a career game. (i.e I. Thomas)

    Also, there was a play in the 1st half where Jokic has the ball and slaps away Kanter's arm 3 fucking times and no call from the ref. That's supposed to be an automatic foul.

    he did that in game one and then turned into Kanter and they called the foul on Kanter. Jokic is getting officiated like a joke, especially comparing him to Zach Collins who gets zero benefit of the doubt even tho he’s actually much better defensively

    Do you have to say "I'm telling you" before 90% of your posts? That shit is annoying.

    I believe you told us all to put you in your place if you ever questioned Dame again. So please take what you told us to tell you and STFU.



    And BTW, we know you have a hard on for Malik Beasley but we don't need 5 posts talking about it. You did the same shit for Schroder in the first round.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Wow, the NBA really screwed us over by not handing out suspensions.

    Letting Turner keep playing is really going to hurt us.

    Last game was a game for lovers of defense...we played awesome team defense which took some energy from the offensive end but I don't remember seeing us keep the defense on a string for 4 quarters in a long, long time...I loved it! Nugs were already tired and we keep this up, they'll get more burned out ...Go Blazers!

    Not only will I stand corrected, but I'll hold this L because that game was on the same day as my graduation ceremony from university.
