Around the League: Season Resumes

[Mori Chu]

CLIPS WIN! Hooray! Helps keep our hopes alive.

[Split T]

Such a big one! Our hopes are still alive! This probably gives grizzlies the 8 seed.

Lillard chokes!

I was watching the Clippers broadcast and the play by play announcer played some of the best FT defense I've ever heard.

Before the first: Lillard is automatic at 88% from the FT line...

Before the second: Lillard NEVER misses two FTs in a row...

Chauncey Billups wanted to take the game ball away from Morris and give it to the play by play guy.

Portland plays a back to back tomorrow. They get Philly...though without Simmons.

So, you're saying there's a chance?

I didn't realize that Michael Porter Jr. has been so good in the bubble. 26 & 10? If he becomes a real weapon suddenly the Nuggets are dangerous with Murray back & Jokic.

[Split T]

Ya, if MPJ can turn Murray into a 3rd option, they become dangerous. Might not pay off this post season, but next year could be interesting.

For real. People talk about Doncic and Zion but the nuggets are team that everyone should fear for the next 5-6 years.

I truly was not expecting a Portland loss. I’m nervous level for tonight’s game has been dialed up to 11 now.

They’re so deep too. I can’t believe they haven’t made a play for another star. With all their depth, you think they could build a Murray+ for Beal trade. With MPJ coming on and upgrading from Murray to Beal? Scary

Yep. Honestly, MPJ could surpass Murray as their second best player.

I don't think that is necessary, nor particularly worth it.

If MPJ is for real, they maybe not. Depends a lot on what it would take I guess.

[Wally_West]

The nuggets core are so young and so good right now I would just prefer to keep them together and let them grow. Their potential is dynasty level.

[Wally_West]

A lot of it depends on how healthy MPJ can stay because his potential is sky high.

I remember everybody was talking about what a steal it was to grab him late in the draft as he would have been a top pick had he not been injured for a year. Looks like it's panning out.

I find Utah's alternate jerseys obnoxious.

Pre injury he was a top 5 guy. Probably would have ended up going 6th as Hawks were pretty set on Trae, but he would have been in the mix up there.

They love them here in Utah

Dude. We just have to relax and let the chips fall where they may. We just have to enjoy that the team is getting better and that this will pay off for next season where we have a good chance to be in the playoff picture year round. It would be AMAZING if we won out but even then there would still be a chance of not making the play in tournament.
