    Great, so they'll be relaxed and playing free next time we play them...

    I think you meant to say, Go Nuggets not to win!

    Yes its broken english but it works and you are not rooting for the Rocket's.

    So far so good, Rockets have an 11 point lead after the first.

    Nope. Sorry. Rockets and L*kers don't deserve any fandom from me ever, any day, any minute.

    Im still trying to figure out how Jokic is a budding star? Again, I've watched quite a few games and have been largely underwhelmed given the talk about him.

    Honestly he's a pretty bad defender. It is night and day comparing him and Nurk on that end.

    Jesus, Beverly may be the stupidest player I've ever seen. He straight up elbowed Jokic with the ref 1 ft away on a dead ball... and complains that Jokic fouled him

    Last night the Nugz took Jokić out of the game on a couple of the last defensive possessions which I thought is telling. It's one thing to take out your starting PG for defense in crucial moments but it's another to take out your supposed phenom center. Like some others, I don't really get the hype.
