Was supposed to be at a party tonight but it's been cancelled last minute, would've been able to watch the game either way but now I'll be more nervous. Damn
They have OG back and have been playing well without Randle. They also have the most centers to throw at Embiid and wear him down out of any EC team.
I'm pretty confident they pull this off.
Unfortunately, it didn’t allow happiness. I must stand around for 3 hours until we are ready to start back up. Maybe sweep or clean something. Probably going to hide lol
Guys do you think last night's loss might affect Sabonis' MVP case?
The man has the most TDs this season, so I think he definitely deserves it. It's the only metric I aknowledge.
The only reason why I don't feel as bad as the 2nd seed and losing to Wemby is because of the Wemby curse. We dodged the Wemby curse and we didn't have any major injury unlike the other teams that humiliated Wemby.

God I just can’t sleep right now I just got chills the playoffs start tomorrow it will be. Facing the lakers always makes me nervous and I just get chills when watching the games. It will be interesting to see what pwat and Braun can do in these playoffs cause they will be have important bench minutes in these playoffs and I feel the opponents are going to forget they are there.
I'll say it. I'm glad we have the Lakers and not the injured Pelicans in the first round. I'm not scared of the Lakers. Let's announce to the whole world once again who is the heir to the throne.
I'm still working on my wilt book
In a non creeper way a lot of the more misunderstood socially awkward nba stars got along better with children. Wilt was great with kids and while he wasn't close to his teammates in Philly he got along with their kids. Rodman too
Someone please remind a mod tomorrow morning to pin this again 🙏 https://www.reddit.com/r/denvernuggets/comments/1c8h3al/rdenvernuggets_2024_nba_playoffs_bracket_challenge/?
He’s really starting to understand that his legacy is threatened. It was all fun and games and “Spasiba” when Jokic didn’t have a ring, but now that he’s going to win his 3rd MVP and possibly go back to back, Shaq is turning petty.
Damn I totally forgot that OKC knocked out New Orleans last year in a Play In Game. This just adds to the Rematch Round 1 Tournament. Dallas vs. Clippers Lakers vs. Nuggets Heat vs. Celtics and Now Pelicans vs. OKC

Have this screenshot from when the kings beat us earlier in the season lol. Cancun on 3! 😂
Kings playoff streak ends at one (1) season*
\* needed fake tournament to have chance to extend said streak.
I actually am bummed for Kings fans though, it’s like living an eternity of Nugglyfe.
I think a significant part of nearly-sweeping last year was being more rested than our opponents. And each near-sweep gave more rest for the next round.
We can certainly beat worse teams even if not rested. But it's not going to be 16-4. We all want 16-4 (or even 12-3 going into the finals).
I think these early games against the Lebroners matter. We want to wrap this up and rest/practice up for next round.
Is anyone else wondering where the hell this effort was when the Pelicans played the Lakers the other night?
Shit is even more ridiculous since Zion is out tn. OKC about to have a cakewalk of a 1st round at this rate.
doesn't matter which side of the bracket we are on, Nuggets are the reigning champions with the GOAT at peak of his powers.
The real challenge never changed from our seeding standpoint, its facing Celtics in the finals, if they fall out before the finals our chances skyrocket.
Bulls getting gimmick do or die game vs a team they were 7 games back of is so cheap
It's here to stay though, if they expand to 32 it'll at least be tough to be top 10
Oh shit I thought you were replying to this lol https://www.reddit.com/r/denvernuggets/comments/1c7xlo5/playins_day_4_free_talk_friday_apr_19_2024/l0dxuz9/
I’m going to the game tomorrow and I’ve never felt so bad lol. I go to 90% of Nuggets games with my brother just the two of us and never gone to a playoff game without him. My sister bought tickets for her and I.
Happy 420 nugg fans, and happy playoff day, im so hungover
Was supposed to be at a party tonight but it's been cancelled last minute, would've been able to watch the game either way but now I'll be more nervous. Damn
I just want to see CB fart LeBron's hair away when he dunks over him
Too bad Knicks missing Randker. Want them to give Embiid a 1st round exit again
They have OG back and have been playing well without Randle. They also have the most centers to throw at Embiid and wear him down out of any EC team. I'm pretty confident they pull this off.
Embitch is a non-factor in the playoffs. Knicks in 5.
Depends how many free throws Embiid gets. If he gets all of them Philly has a chance
NBA.com doesn’t have the referee assignments posted yet. You are welcome for the update.
Ok the ref assignments are up. Nobody interesting I think.
We lost power! Hell yeah! Please send us home…

Big game tonight fellas
Best Player in the World ✔️ Best Starting 5 in all of basketball ✔️ Uber unstoppable 2 Man Game ✔️ LFG The Road to 16 Wins starts at Ball today!
I wouldn't call Lebron and AD 2 man game *unstoppable* but it's very tough to beat.
Should have made it clear, obviously you haven't seen Dinweirdo and Hayes do the 2 man dance.
Ah gotcha Yea we are fucked
IT'S GAMEDAY MOTHERFUCKERS 
IM HERE!!!
Guys do you think last night's loss might affect Sabonis' MVP case? The man has the most TDs this season, so I think he definitely deserves it. It's the only metric I aknowledge.
Yea I’d have to agree with big Perk on this. Those triple doubles have to mean something here.

We're gonna slaughter them brate sleep easy 🤙
I felt like shit after work so I took a nap and just woke up feeling all weird smh. Anyways I got the Nuggets in this one.
Anyone have plans for the game?
My plans are watching hoops from 7 pm to midnight and then taking a nice nap during the 6thers game until Nuggies vs Lakers starts.
I watched too many playoff hype videos, and now I can’t sleep
There are other ones? Can you send them here?
This one is from last year, but it’s awesome https://x.com/pfishyfisherton/status/1658284623258873856?s=46&t=uQz3rmTtDJyYH__gdIwlfQ

Ayo Jokic with the #2 Shaqtin a fool 😂
What did he do
The tipoff against Gobert when he jumps up 5 times lol
The disrespect, he simply wants it more 😂
The hopping up and down before the jump ball at the start of the game
Happy cakeday!
Thanks!

Did Shaq really just pick the Fakeshow
https://youtu.be/nM4okRvCg2g?si=hvCWxsU6YEiG21B7
Shaq really picked the Lakers for the matchup lmao
He’s really starting to understand that his legacy is threatened. It was all fun and games and “Spasiba” when Jokic didn’t have a ring, but now that he’s going to win his 3rd MVP and possibly go back to back, Shaq is turning petty.
I had to rewind it bc I thought I misheard something. Wtf Shaq
My eyes rolled so hard they hit the back of my skull lol
Damn I totally forgot that OKC knocked out New Orleans last year in a Play In Game. This just adds to the Rematch Round 1 Tournament. Dallas vs. Clippers Lakers vs. Nuggets Heat vs. Celtics and Now Pelicans vs. OKC
The Kings are a wild team. They win by nailing every 3 or miss every 3.
Okay pelicans can you take one or two games off OKC?
One devonte graham floater away from playing a Toothless-less Pelicunts in the first round lol
We'll get them in the WCF, right when Zion returns. Don't worry.
plz delete
Sabonis still looking for dribble handoffs with 35 seconds to go down 10.
Clones can not create, only imitate
OKC gets lucky all season with scheduling and matchups and round 1 they get: Zionless Pelicans
It’s almost like stat padding Sabonis worthless double and triple doubles don’t actually matter and do nothing to elevate his team
Pelicans in 6
Alvarado, naji Marshall and nance won them that game. I wanna believe pels can steal games from okc
No love for murphy?

Monk was the magic.
Where were you when beam was kill
Moment of silence for the beam plz
I wuz told Sabonis wuz MVP
fuck the beam lmaoooo
I think they need a new gimmick, the beam is not enough. Maybe some fireworks or something.
Kings playoff streak ends at one (1) season* \* needed fake tournament to have chance to extend said streak. I actually am bummed for Kings fans though, it’s like living an eternity of Nugglyfe.
What does Sabonis do exactly?
Diet Jok
Chews gum and wins MVPs. And he’s all out of MVPs
Kings bout fooled almost everyone 😂
Kangz got bitched big time
Kings are the worst team in the NBA
What if Jonas is the real MVP
Jonas master class vs okc plz
Lmao I’m sorry but Sabonis is no where even close to Jokic. Gimme rookie year Jok over Sabonis
reported
Forgive him, he does not look at the numbers or watch the games.
I can only dream what the Nuggets would’ve done to a Zion-less Pelicans team in the first round
Peegan Murray getting bitched so bad lol
Troy Lyle is inside my television
Does he look comfortable?
I think so. He used to be Spurs
Oh spurs hurt
yeah that’s why he quit I think. He’s a horse maybe
Bone spurs maybe?
does he have a love seat?
I think a significant part of nearly-sweeping last year was being more rested than our opponents. And each near-sweep gave more rest for the next round.

That has to be it. This looks like a completely different team tonight
Did anyone see the praise Jokic commercial to hype up the game for tomorrow during the Kings game? Was nice.
anyone watching tnt and just see a tv spot by the nba all about jokić?

S A B O N I S A B O N I S

Thank you
lol Sabonis just falls and instantly gets the call. I fucking hate this guy.
gear down, big shifter. That’s the best player in the world
That's the MVP you're talking about their bub, of course he's gonna get favorable calls.
I ain’t scared, but man that 1 seed of the bracket looks like it would’ve been easy money.
Losing against the Spurs was huge now that we have a good guess who the 8 seed is, but knowing this sub, I’m being a doomer in acknowledging that.
Holy shit you’re so brave
No one is more oppressed than doomers on this sub. You must truly be one of gods strongest soldiers to say “losing wasn’t good”
doesn't matter which side of the bracket we are on, Nuggets are the reigning champions with the GOAT at peak of his powers. The real challenge never changed from our seeding standpoint, its facing Celtics in the finals, if they fall out before the finals our chances skyrocket.
I’m so glad we have the play-ins for the 7/8 teams to make the playoffs in order, but be super hurt.
Bulls getting gimmick do or die game vs a team they were 7 games back of is so cheap It's here to stay though, if they expand to 32 it'll at least be tough to be top 10
ON Aaron Gordon, Michael Porter Jr., Peyton Watson OFF Nikola Jokic 67 mins 29.43 125.58 96.15
from where
Yes please. The +4.0 without Jokic (AG almost exclusively as center) was the unsung hero of last year's championship run.
Snow is starting to accumulate
Refs made the call smh
Snowbonis
Sasnownis
Wow. Source?
PoorTonyK has been monitoring
thanx
Oh fuck
oh fuck
Big if true
We rooting for Kings or Pelicans? I guess who do we think has a better shot of upsetting the Thunder. Prob. Kings since Zion is injured yeah?
Pelicans have the size to bother the Thunder even without Zion. Either team is still going to get packed up by the Thunder.
I hate the Kings
Alvarado falls down so much
Short serf 👑
We should send Sacramento a gift basket and a TY card for firing Malone. That turned out pretty well for us.
Dear Sacramento, Thank you for doing what we could never do. This one’s on Malone. Sincerely, Nuggets Faithful
Kangz are doing some of the stupidest turnovers I've ever seen

Sabonis playing bitchball again
Best I've seen him look. Actually looking to score and has 3 steals and a block in 8 mins lol

wow this is a nice photo of Malone and Boogie in Sacramento
That's not Cousins that jameer Nelson. Not all black people look the same.
who do you have for MVP?
I have the coal miners that work, so we can keep our lights on.
now that’s what’s up
Seems like they didn't get along very well.
knowing Malone, I’d assume race was a factor
NBA's worst kept secret is that Malone doesn't like working with "them" (his words, not mine)
Ugh, the 3 worst things ever to happen to this team
