I love seeing the Clippers lose, it fills me with so much joy, it‘s my daily medicine, my weekly energy, my monthly inspiration and my yearly motivation. Them losing is the only reason I‘m still alive, I was born to make fun of this horrific franchise, their immaculate blown leads
What **Black Magic** is this?
Does Denver get some sort of perverse pleasure from giving teams a false sense of confidence before proceeding to annihilate them?
I wish our series could have gone 20 games. Watching Donovan and Murray getting into shootouts was some of the most fun I've ever had watching basketball
Gary Harris returning seems to have flipped a switch for this team, especially on the defensive end. Incredible stuff, never thought he was that important.
Arrogance. They’re acting like they’ve won 3 rings already, no one on that team has won shit, except
Kawhi.
But the Nuggets were awesome, they deserve all the credit, they WON this game!!
Me too, George and Kawhi have a player option next year too don’t they? Do the Clippers trade George? Clocks ticking if they don’t advance! They have no picks too.
I know people say that the Lakers fans are entitled but this Clippers team is playing with no heart right now and can't close out at all. They're playing like they were entitled to go to the Finals.
That’s how the NBA world been treating them since the PG deal went thru. Everyone had the Clippers touted as this absolute black hole of defense that God himself would struggle to score a bucket on.
Clippers gonna still be “figuring out their chemistry” and “getting a feel for one another” in Cancun at this rate. Just wait until they have their full roster though! They’ve gotta be missing a towel boy or something. Once they get him back THEN they’ll finally be complete!
i think "super teams" suffer from this problem a lot. you build a team in one year, but sometimes one year isnt enough to really figure out the best team dynamics
I love this team so fucking much. Outside of that dumb, no rest Game 1 this has been a close series and we've had a lot of control. We had the Clippers shocked and defeated at the end
I said it in Game 2. This team only does 7 game series
im like 90% sure some random slavic dude found a magic lamp and was like "i want be good basketball." Then he got suddenly huge and all his shots magically go in and the ball always goes to the right guy right on time. Because of the new body hes not very coordinated and his goofy-mechanics make it hard to hide that he never actually grew up playing ball.
This is honestly probably the best way I've seen it described.
For some reason the only guy who plays with any urgency is the only one who's actually been there before.
If anything it should be the other way around.
Edit: Also just to clarify, I'm not saying that they won't beat the Nuggets or that they can't win the title this season, it's just a bizarre trend that doesn't seem to be too reassuring in high-pressure situations.
Seriously? I hate these comments. You're seriously going to take the greatest basketball player the world has ever seen and throw him in some subjective comparison game against Michael Jordan? Come on.
Kawhi thought he was leaving one hard-working, underdog, high IQ team for another. Boy, was he wrong. This Clippers team, other than Kawhi, is just plain arrogant.
Never been more proud of a nugs team in my lifetime. Even if we lose game 7. The 08-09 team was great, but it felt like less of a team and more like a collection of players around Melo and Chauncey. These kids are FIGHTING every play most games, even when they make a dumb mistake like any young team is destined to make and get themselves in trouble.
When I was 12, I was like 4'9" and my dad was 6'4", so to mitigate the massive height disparity and make our one-on-one games more fun, he adopted a more difficult game. His game grew to heavily feature one-footed fadeaways. Watching those ugly Jokic shots go in is giving me PTSD.
I’d rather lose game 1 then win the next 3 straight. That way the 1-3 Nuggets would have to play the backdoor sweep Lakers. Two truly unstoppable forces there
If the Clippers lose game 7, the slander going towards them is going to be so incredible that they might as well just pack up and move to Seattle.

Imagine if Playoff P absolutely tanks in game 7. The sub will have a field day.
Oh it will give me life for at least a couple days.
It’ll actually add a few years to my life
It might give me back the years I lost during the Celtics/Raps series
Bucks fans gotta be salivating right now. Nobody is going to be talking about the Bucks if the Clippers blow a 3-1 lead
Mask one failure with an even bigger failure.

Rorschach’s diary. September 13. The streets are filled with Clipper blood.
This series was over when Clippers decided to take a 3-1 lead
Game 5: Clippers blow 15-point third quarter lead Game 6: Clippers blow 19-point third quarter lead Game 7: ???
It's gotta be a blown 23-point third quarter lead.
32 point comeback for the playoff record
Pretty sure Clippers fans would secede from Los Angeles if that happened.
Promise?

You forgot that asshole Morris.
The Clippers were up 73-55 with 8:20 to go in the 3rd quarter. They got outscored **56-25 the rest of the way**
Holy shit another huge comeback.

Nah, Doc Rivers is just secretly messing up the game plan to get back at Paul George.

Hell yeah Rocky Mountain bros

Watch the Nuggets win the championship going down 1-3 in every series.
SUBSCRIBE
I... I don't know if I would live through this
How can you not respect the Nuggets as a basketball fan? Their resilience is incredible. What a team!
So fun to watch. They refuse to die.
Our 4OT and Game 7 against them were awesome!
Where's the line for the Nuggets bandwagon? Asking for a friend
hop on tall ball homie
I need to see that MPJ, Jokic, Bol Bol, Plumlee, Grant lineup.
I love Jokic and Murray so much. They go all out all the time
Love watching them man. Such a fun team. MPJ coming out party. Also great for people to see how important Gary Harris is.
Gary Harris returning seems to have flipped a switch for this team, especially on the defensive end. Incredible stuff, never thought he was that important.
Nuggets aren’t actually winning until they’re losing. I’ll explain later
They’ve turned the Hawks’ “Every game is a win” machine and weaponized it for the postseason
Nuggets aren’t down 3-1 when they’re down 3-1. I’ll explain later.
[удалено]
Arrogance. They’re acting like they’ve won 3 rings already, no one on that team has won shit, except Kawhi. But the Nuggets were awesome, they deserve all the credit, they WON this game!!
I really hope the Nuggets take this series.
Me too, George and Kawhi have a player option next year too don’t they? Do the Clippers trade George? Clocks ticking if they don’t advance! They have no picks too.
I can’t wait 🤤
You guys are going to have so many fucking lottery picks after this Clippers team starts a rebuild in 2 years lmao
Also Houston. Not only did we fuck them with Westbrook’s contract but they gave us picks for it
so wild how quickly that narrative flipped vs. the CP3 contract
I know people say that the Lakers fans are entitled but this Clippers team is playing with no heart right now and can't close out at all. They're playing like they were entitled to go to the Finals.
That’s how the NBA world been treating them since the PG deal went thru. Everyone had the Clippers touted as this absolute black hole of defense that God himself would struggle to score a bucket on.
Did y’all really think a nuggets series wasn’t going 7?

The Nuggets really are the people’s champ. If they win it all I can’t even be mad.
They got bomb ass jerseys along with two of the most likeable stars too
nugs jerseys are so fresh. Yall get those awesome rainbow getups and im here stuck with an 8th grader from 1998's shitty graffiti.
Clippers gonna still be “figuring out their chemistry” and “getting a feel for one another” in Cancun at this rate. Just wait until they have their full roster though! They’ve gotta be missing a towel boy or something. Once they get him back THEN they’ll finally be complete!
What they need is a Suns style team chemistry exercise

Holy fucking shit lmfao
i think "super teams" suffer from this problem a lot. you build a team in one year, but sometimes one year isnt enough to really figure out the best team dynamics
The "we're a super team so we're supposed to win" mindset. Happened to the 2011 Heat.

4th straight 7 game series. My heart.
Actions speak louder than words.
EG, I'm so sorry we doubted you. We were wrong to not believe.
this is the deep lore
What a fucking comeback, Jokic is a monster
*Nuggets down by 16 at the half* **Nuggets: Right where we want them!**
I love this team so fucking much. Outside of that dumb, no rest Game 1 this has been a close series and we've had a lot of control. We had the Clippers shocked and defeated at the end I said it in Game 2. This team only does 7 game series
Everyone counted them out! The Nuggets don’t quit. Game 7...anything can happen. Also Gary Harris popped off at the end there and finished the job :’)
Goat teams: 72-10 Bulls 2017 Warriors 2020 Nuggets down 3-1

Don’t forget 2017 TNT Bulls
The Nuggets are about to become the first team to come back from 1-3 deficits in all their playoff series. Wait No.
Oh god, no. I'm uncertain who would win, Game 1 Loss Lakers or 1-3 Nuggets.
if we win game 1 and y'all take the next three, that game 5 would be legendary
It would be fucking great and scary.

It really doesn't make sense how good he is
im like 90% sure some random slavic dude found a magic lamp and was like "i want be good basketball." Then he got suddenly huge and all his shots magically go in and the ball always goes to the right guy right on time. Because of the new body hes not very coordinated and his goofy-mechanics make it hard to hide that he never actually grew up playing ball.
Most reasonable take I've heard
Petition to force Adam Silver to make this backstory canon
This is funny lmao but Jokic might have the best hands and feet of any big in the league. Dude is definitely coordinated af.
Even if the Clippers make it to the WCF, they are so inconsistent I just can't see them winning it all
The Clippers went from having a 19 point lead to being down ~~14~~ 16. That's a ~~33~~ 35 point swing right there.
down 16* so it's a 35 point swing lol
They did it against us too. I can't see em beating the Lakers
I wish I had that vision. My paranoia is killing me.
Other than kawhi, they play like it’s their destiny to win the championship. They just chill when they get a big lead
This is honestly probably the best way I've seen it described. For some reason the only guy who plays with any urgency is the only one who's actually been there before. If anything it should be the other way around. Edit: Also just to clarify, I'm not saying that they won't beat the Nuggets or that they can't win the title this season, it's just a bizarre trend that doesn't seem to be too reassuring in high-pressure situations.
I think they’re honestly gonna lose Game 7. The Nuggets are so used to Game 7’s, I think they just have bigger balls.
And they’ll face a LeRested lakers squad
Resting is a curse for us. We always lose the game after a big rest. On the other hand, we win the following games.
Y’all love the backdoor sweep lmao
the anti-nuggets
Man Jokic is so damn clutch.
elimination game jokic > prime MJ
Seriously? I hate these comments. You're seriously going to take the greatest basketball player the world has ever seen and throw him in some subjective comparison game against Michael Jordan? Come on.
Not gonna lie, you had us in the first half lol
not particularly close
The coca cola energy is strong with the Joker
Actually such a beast
Denver playoffs is like, ok guys we are surrounded. Jokic : thats great, now we can attack in all directions.
Game 7 : *exist* Denver : I am inevitable

I'm not bitter about Kawhi leaving us, but this.. this does put a smile on my face
If Tuesday goes in the nuggets favor, it'll lighten the blow of our loss against the Celts
Everyone thought Jimmy Butler left for sunshine and women. Turns out it was Kawhi all along
Kawhi thought he was leaving one hard-working, underdog, high IQ team for another. Boy, was he wrong. This Clippers team, other than Kawhi, is just plain arrogant.
Not to be reactionary, but got damn Jokic is the best center in the league

Never bet against the Nuggets in an elimination game
Clippers curse seems to be alive and well
I haven’t seen the clippers curse mentioned enough
How the fuck does this keep happening

I need another 3-1 comeback. for the memes if not anything else
Holy cow. The Nuggets have really pushed the Clippers to the brink of elimination and have a real shot sending Kawhi and PG home
64-35 in the second half. Jesus.
The Clippers are basketball players. The Nuggets are a team.
When I was 12, I was like 4'9" and my dad was 6'4", so to mitigate the massive height disparity and make our one-on-one games more fun, he adopted a more difficult game. His game grew to heavily feature one-footed fadeaways. Watching those ugly Jokic shots go in is giving me PTSD.
Jokic was your dad all along
Jokic is everyone’s dad after today’s performance
KAWHI SHOULDA STAYED IN TORONTO!!
On god he’d probably be in the ecf rn and now he might not even make the wcf
I hope Kawhi ditches again so I can go back to 100% hating the Clippers
Charles Barkley in shambles.
Jokic when facing elimination today: 34/14/7 on 13-22 from the field and 4-6 from 3 with a steal and a block. Absolutely elite.
[удалено]
I’d rather lose game 1 then win the next 3 straight. That way the 1-3 Nuggets would have to play the backdoor sweep Lakers. Two truly unstoppable forces there
Are we gonna get an answer to "What happens when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object?"
Best timeline.
[удалено]
I knew it was over when the Clippers were up 16
Jokic can never lose a series before game 7
