Bruce Brown is my 6th man of the year. No one talks about him outside of Denver, but his game is incredible. True hooper, and his energy is through the roof. He’s one of many dawgs on this team and if there’s anyway Denver can retain him, we’ll be a problem for many years to come.

Lebron has been down 0-2 3 times in his career and won the series. 2007, 2016, 2018 and now 2023. Good luck Denver.

Jokic movement is so uncoordinated. Man isn’t athletic at all. Looks like a ret@rd when he jogs around. But he knows how to put the ball in the net

I must say I never hated LBJ this much, this dude just keeps making mindblowingly stupid mistakes, and shooting 3s knowing he’ll miss nearly all of them. The most amazing thing is he has no shame for his turnovers, well keeping reaching for whatever record numbers bron, cause you ain’t never gonna get that 5th ring, and you ain’t never be greater than MJ or Kobe… JUST RETIRE

Lebron is a disgrace to the game of basketball! The Lakers are a cheating corrupt organization. A match made in hell. Watch closely.
