      @lante07 fold like always? This isn’t 03-08 nuggets when Melo kept losing to Utah..

      @lante07 Casuals talking on the internet cause it’s free again. Stop the cap, bro. Act like you know basketball instead of confirming you dont.

      @lante07 FACT: DEN record vs LAC since Clippers went up 3-1:

      10-2

      The nuggets have won more series down 3-1 than anybody. They aren’t going to fold. They’ve played two years without Jamal Murray or MPJ in the playoffs. If they stay healthy it’s going to be their year.

      @lante07 You don’t know basketball 💀💀

    You’re the deciding factor on whether or not you make your dreams a reality or not. It’s not one big event that makes a life of greatness. It’s those small decisions each and everyday that change everything. Make the right ones.

      Yes the past can hurt but either way I see it you can either run from it or learn from it.

    Perk is right. Golden State is a lottery team on the road.

    • JSauer21

      December 27, 2022 at 1:54 pm

      9-9 against the West lmao

  12. King Spawn

    December 26, 2022 at 3:33 pm

    There is not one dominant team in this league or in the western conference ,and that sounded like an excuse to me bad Santa perk .

  13. Hal

    December 26, 2022 at 4:45 pm

    Im very happy to see the wide open conferences like they are. It really helps keep the interest high for many fans. If your team has an honest shot, then you are interested to watch games. I love the competition this season. No clear dominators in either conference.

    If the warriors get healthy they winning the champ again

    • Dj Wayne

      Make the playoffs first my boy

  17. blablablaa

    December 26, 2022 at 7:52 pm

    Ja disappeared in the fourth quarter against the Warriors. I don’t think Memphis has figured out how to get him the ball in crucial situations where you need a guy to get you a couple of buckets consistently

    • Dwight Yawg

      December 27, 2022 at 2:23 am

      It’s cuz all he does is jump in the air without a plan & then get bailed out by his team. Problem is they can’t make every shot for him

  18. D'Great Guru

    December 26, 2022 at 8:37 pm

    Perk, keeps on doubting on GSW and making excuses for Memphis. LMAO
    Having no dominant team/s in the west gives GSW time to develop the young guys and the new vets to master their system

  19. Colby Landwehr

    December 26, 2022 at 9:06 pm

    It would be a disappointment if jokic couldnt get the nuggets in the finals

  20. D'Great Guru

    December 26, 2022 at 9:08 pm

    GSW being the kryptonite for Memphis. And also for Denver and Dallas…

    • nathaniel

      December 31, 2022 at 6:29 am

      @JSauer21 warriors being a first round exit against a healthy nuggets is a fantasy of yours. but the nuggets being a first round exit against a healthy warriors is REALITY.

    • JSauer21

      December 31, 2022 at 2:54 pm

      @nathaniel The Warriors about to miss the playoffs for the 3rd time in the last 4 years is also reality lol. Congrats on being lucky last year, it’s the only decent season you’ve had in recent memory

    • nathaniel

      December 31, 2022 at 8:11 pm

      @JSauer21 keep living in your wonderland, kid

    • JSauer21

      December 31, 2022 at 8:32 pm

      @nathaniel Such a stereotypical Warriors fan lol, imma go watch my team consistently win games now lol

    • nathaniel

      December 31, 2022 at 8:58 pm

      @JSauer21 and where has your team consistenly winning games took them?

    December 26, 2022 at 11:53 pm

    If I had to pick a team coming out the west I’d have to be the team with the best player in the conference which is Denver

    • alex joseph

      December 27, 2022 at 11:38 am

      I also pick Denver to come out the west

    • alex joseph

      December 27, 2022 at 11:38 am

      I think currently Denver is the best team in the west

    They talk about morant like he is some kind of star lmfao

  24. JSauer21

    December 27, 2022 at 1:53 pm

    I think it’s the Nuggets to lose, they’re only going to continue to get better

    • You're Breaking My Balls

      December 28, 2022 at 2:57 pm

      Hope so! Only injuries can stop them from being a true threat to win it all

    • sHun873
