He should do his son a favor and let him earn it.

I get what you're saying and tend to agree. But if we're being honest, how many guys get drafted who average 4 pts per game after a serious medical issue?

Zero. That's why I think he should stay at USC while he continues his recovery and improves his game. The guy is probably already a millionaire from NIL money. If Lakers draft him cuz Lebron says so then they are drafting Lebron's ego, not Lebron's son.

One man team Jokic. Everything revolves around him being the hub scoring or defending. Get Jokic the ball in the middle and he scores or dishes off a nice pass.

Minny is more spread out. Edwards shot terribly, yet they still won.

Feel like Boston needs Porzingus to win it all, congrats Pacers, Mavs and Timberwolves I always welcome teams without rings to win it all.

Nuggets denied repeat by team 'built to beat us'

The Nuggets saw their bid to repeat as NBA champions disintegrate in stunning fashion, as they blew a 20-point third-quarter lead on their home floor in Game 7, a defeat that left them both shell-shocked and frustrated.

"I mean, I think they're built to beat us," Jokic said. "Just look at their roster. They have basically two All-Stars, two probably first-team defensive players. Mike Conley is the most underrated player in the NBA, probably.

"From the bench, they have a Sixth Man of the Year. ... [They are] one team that they can do literally everything. They can be big, small."

Minnesota has the best collective defense in the NBA and of course, the DPY, Rudy Gobert.

I'm hoping the Mavs can pull this one out, but it will be incredibly difficult.
I think the Stars have a better chance at a championship this year, tbh.

These big ass centers are not getting the boards lol. So funny and pretty useless.

Jokic played the full game last night, he only sat 1 minute in the first half. Pathetc effort by the rest of Denver.

Wolves are a better team IMO but I still expected denver to clutch at home.

One of the reasons Anthony Edwards was so motivated to send the defending champions home was his encounter with Jamal Murray at a cocktail bar in Denver this time last year. According to Ant, Murray approached him and his team while they were having drinks and took the opportunity to trash-talk them.

"He was talking s---," Edwards told ESPN. "He was telling Mike (Conley), 'I'm sick of you, you can't guard me,' and all that. I told him, 'We'll be back. You'll see us again when we're fully loaded.'"

Well as much as that makes sense, Jamal would have been doing the same this year had he been healthy.
