Best team in the NBA over the last month.

Big game tonight, win tonight and put a ton of pressure on Miami, Atlanta, and Boston to have to win out to hit the 4 seed
Noel just sprained his ankle like 3 days ago. There's no way he's 100%. And then w/ Gibson and everyone else going against Jokic they're calling fouls for ticky tack shit. Not sure what else we can do. I think if we'd played them w/ Noel at full strength it might've helped.
BUT-- honestly, I think Jokic has the Strength factor that is beating Noel and the speed that is beating Gibson. He's one of the best. Mitchell Robinson has strength, length, a little more quickness. Noel has been absolutely phenomenal on defense, but I think going up against a star 5 who plays as physically as Jokic and can do everything, Noel/Gibson are not going to get the job done (especially with Noel probably playing like 60%).
Let's just pray if we by some miracle make it to the Finals
we don't play the Nuggets-- it would be a quick and embarrassing series. I think Suns we could fair decently against (not playing like this of course-- playing like we played them the other night). We'll see how we stack up against the clippers in a few days as well.
We all were screaming in the 2018 draft to take Porter Jr. Even hurt we all wanted to take a chance! We draft Knox. How many times can can we fuck up a draft?
horrible no call
Jokic is very good but he always gets away with that stuff
Mitch would be getting tossed around as well
Start Burks, Rose, Quickley.
Anyone
no thibs is
He's going for 50 tonight.
He's going for 50 tonight.
He also hooks his elbow every single tine
I guess the rep for being a good defensive team doesnt matter..
when you call 2 quick fouls on Rj for playing physical on a post up you know its going to be a long night with the officials..
