What the hell CO guys, Jokic only puts in 13 (still triple double) and they win by 16
 
Of course tomorrow is both the Nuggets and Avs, at nearly the same time. I'm not as into hockey, but I always watch Colorado teams in the playoffs (unless they're playing soccer, then I still don't care)

I went to one hockey game this year, I don't need to watch another. We'll see if the Wild can pull it out or not.

Lakers and Timberwolves tonight. Two teams where I dislike the prominent players.

It's funny how that works, and I agree. Meanwhile I like most the nuggets. I love how the joker is just having a good time and not looking for the glory, it makes everyone better around him.

Joker would love to be done so he can go farm. Which is awesome and hilarious but he knows what pays the bills and he's gonna do it at the best of his ability day in and day out.

Would be nice if someone still had the Jordan/Bryant mindset but I don't see it anywhere in the NBA anymore.

I've never been a fan of Lebron. Lakers fan since I was a kid, my dad would take me to see Magic and Kareem ($12 for nose bleed back then). So when Lebron came to the Lakers, I was conflicted, but knew it would end up being bad since he's late in his career.

General rule of thumb: If your son is old enough to be on the team, YOU'RE TOO OLD! One more year left in his contract. I believe he can opt out of the last year. Though since there hasn't be a circus of Labron playing his last year, doesn't look like that will happen.

Magic and Kareen would have been great to watch. Even attending modern basketball games is boring.

I learned recently that Scottie Pippen and his son were the first father and son duo to both record triple doubles. But they definitely aren't playing together either.
 
Insufferable.

How the game has fallen

It was a good game, some lead changes in the 4th. Though you could tell that Doncic and James were just running out of gas, couldn't keep up. Doncic hurt is back and was probably playing around 50%. Take that early retirement clause Labron.

I tuned into a youtuber who was following the game for the second half of the second quarter. They were livid that Minnesota wouldn't drive the ball and chose to keep shooting 3's. They mentioned that they had already attempted 33 threes in the game at that point, that was probably for both teams.

The three pointer has ruined basketball.

Yes, definitely too many failed 3 point attempts from both sides. When the Lakers were down by 6 with around two minutes, they would've had a better chance if they weren't just chucking 3's. Once you see that, they've given up. There wasn't anyone to effectively stop Minnesota. Gobert was unstoppable. They should've just had him take 75% of the shots in the 4th.
