"2023 NBA Finals: Miami Heat vs Denver Nuggets"


  

          

We all know the tale of the tape.

Denver's riding high (1), after sweeping my beloved Lakers(7) in the WCF to make their NBA Finals debut. Miami's been playing the underdog all year. Making the playoffs as an 8th seed, then storming through the east, toppling Milwaukee(1), New York(5), & Boston(2) en route to their 2nd NBA Finals appearance in 3 yrs.

Denver:

Murray
Caldwell-Pope
Porter Jr.
Gordon
Jokic

(Malone)

Miami:

Vincent
Struss
Butler
Martin
Adebayo

(Spoelstra)



Enough talk. Let's get to it.






*skatin' the rings of saturn*

Jun 01st 2023
16

Jun 01st 2023
22
Can’t wait til they play Robinson’s Sid from Toy Story lookin ass…
Jun 01st 2023
23
why you hate Duncan Robinson so much?
Jun 01st 2023
25
      I don’t…just don’t like his game
Jun 01st 2023
27
Struss being 0-for is the difference.
Jun 01st 2023
26
I feel like Gordon baptizing Gabe Vincent is the difference.
Jun 01st 2023
28
      you'd be wrong.
Jun 01st 2023
29
too much size. Too much talent
Jun 01st 2023

Right…they threw it into Jamal like he was Pat Ewing…
Jun 01st 2023

Jun 01st 2023
43
      Yep, true. Or games when it looks like he can barely even jump..
Jun 01st 2023
52

Jun 02nd 2023
80

Jun 02nd 2023
93

Jun 01st 2023
41
This was the obvious one though.
Jun 01st 2023
45
Nodima right, this was the OBVIOUS game for them to get smoked.
Jun 01st 2023
49
LOL
Jun 01st 2023
42
Jimmy Butler didn't show up at all either.
Jun 01st 2023

Jun 01st 2023
47

Jun 01st 2023
48
miami clawed their way back then started hunting 3s.
Jun 01st 2023
50
Miami feeling that mile high altitude...
Jun 01st 2023
51

Jun 01st 2023
53
only two three throws...jimmy has got to be aggressive
Jun 01st 2023
55
yep he's one of the three.
Jun 01st 2023
57
We doing this again......
Jun 01st 2023
60

Jun 01st 2023
63
yk it is possible to make an adjustment and still lose
Jun 02nd 2023
71
      ^
Jun 02nd 2023
76
*If Team A scored more than Team B it's an L*
Jun 02nd 2023
66
it is sound logic, and well supported
Jun 02nd 2023
69
i think it's obvious the point i was making...
Jun 02nd 2023
78
Lemme tell you - this line of thinking doesnt end well.
Jun 02nd 2023
92
      are you referencing the Lakers and their poor shooting vs. the Nuggets?
Jun 02nd 2023
98
      Yes. The Nuggets are just better.
Jun 02nd 2023
103
           different misses. different shooters.
Jun 02nd 2023
107
                I'm just saying the Nuggets have been better than everyone.
Jun 02nd 2023
113
                     lol. fair. i guess we'll see what happens.
Jun 02nd 2023
114
      Denver allowing 40 3pa/g to this team may not end well either
Jun 02nd 2023
101
           Eh, let's see how things shake out if they start hittin
Jun 02nd 2023
109
           because thats the remedy for an ice cold team
Jun 02nd 2023
118
                yep...Gordon swatted one of their 3 attempts out of the building...
Jun 02nd 2023
119
                i read a statistical analysis about 3pt defense a few years ago
Jun 02nd 2023
122
                     wish you could have shown that to Billy Donovan...
Jun 02nd 2023
127
                Well done. *tips cap*
Jun 05th 2023
170
           *waves frantically* look over here guys!
Jun 04th 2023
154
Jokic closed it in the fourth
Jun 01st 2023
54
That's what real MVPs do.
Jun 01st 2023
61
did caleb martin play tonight?
Jun 01st 2023
56
you gotta remember these are undrafted dudes...
Jun 01st 2023
59
27, 10, 14….light
Jun 01st 2023
58
3 more to go. Jamal Murray was cooking. Jimmy shit all over himself.
Jun 01st 2023
62
I really want him to get finals MVP I hope he keeps cooking nm
Jun 02nd 2023
64
      Murray? Heat would have to nominate him before the media does
Jun 02nd 2023
65
      unless Jokic's legs fall off, literally, Murray has zero shot.
Jun 02nd 2023
79
      He can make a run... especially if he puts up a couple of 40s.
Jun 02nd 2023
128
Miami built all types of structures with all those wide open bricks
Jun 02nd 2023
67
Jokic has had 9 playoff trip/dub…Id like some historical perspective
Jun 02nd 2023
70
yea, ok...he's in legendary company lol
Jun 02nd 2023
72
As stated previously at least on of those was definitely a “pad”…
Jun 02nd 2023
84
      LMAO keep saying that every time. Eventually someone will care, right?
Jun 02nd 2023
90
      you say it like he has 2 triple doubles, dude has 9
Jun 02nd 2023
96
      each one adds to the “legend” like that 1 last minute rebound did
Jun 02nd 2023
105
      I find him so much less impressive now thanks for pointing that out
Jun 02nd 2023
133
Serbia was robbed of it’s crown jewels
Jun 02nd 2023
73
…threw his teammates under the bus too after he got bounced
Jun 02nd 2023
77
People need to quit telling this lie they played head to head…
Jun 02nd 2023
85
LMAO.
Jun 02nd 2023
87
Jokic on his way to a ring , Embid still shooting fadeaways over guards
Jun 02nd 2023
99
      I'm honestly embarrassed for Embiid
Jun 02nd 2023
100
      reg season award like last year when Jokic got bounced in the 1st rnd
Jun 02nd 2023
108
           I think Giannis had a better reg season than both nm
Jun 02nd 2023
123
                as was stated below media voted awards are always about narrative
Jun 02nd 2023
124
then what happened
Jun 02nd 2023
102
I want to be a SLIGHT devil's advocate
Jun 02nd 2023
88
"narratives" definitely played a role, some writers didn't feel...
Jun 02nd 2023
112
the award was poisoned this year by narrative
Jun 02nd 2023
97
      ....this year?
Jun 02nd 2023
104
           FACTS!
Jun 02nd 2023
111
Windhorst with a very sober comment on Lowe Post (and Get Up?)
Jun 02nd 2023
74
The Herro thing feels like such a red herring
Jun 02nd 2023
82
      i agree with you.
Jun 02nd 2023
83
      oh I'm definitely center-negative on Herro generally
Jun 02nd 2023
86
      At best, he'd give depth to the Miami bench
Jun 02nd 2023
89
      Yeah you are TOTALLY right. He did nothing in his 19 total playoff mins
Jun 02nd 2023
129
      Oh, okay. I guess he's gonna ball hard then.
Jun 02nd 2023
130
      lol.
Jun 02nd 2023
131
      I like most Kentucky players (even James Young) but Herro sucks
Jun 03rd 2023
137
      they'll definitely be better with him than without
Jun 02nd 2023
135
To be clear, I don't want the Heat to win
Jun 02nd 2023
75
i didn't realize all but one game has 2 days between.
Jun 02nd 2023
91
      I only thought of that when I heard the scheduled times
Jun 02nd 2023
94
Scheduled loss for Miami. But they're too small. 3 more.
Jun 02nd 2023
81
hell, Caleb trying to guard Jamal in the post wasn't much better...
Jun 02nd 2023
95
What are people doing with Denver, man??
Jun 02nd 2023
110
like I said before Murray is the key, Jokic is going to get his...
Jun 02nd 2023
115
Jun 02nd 2023
116
      Hate when it just chops off your subject line
Jun 02nd 2023
117
           yeah my phone does that randomly too
Jun 02nd 2023
125
Miami is gonna have to bite the bullet and play Duncan 30 min
Jun 02nd 2023
120
RE: Miami is gonna have to bite the bullet and play Duncan 30 min
Jun 02nd 2023
126
Denver can let MIA shoot 3s
Jun 02nd 2023
132
      major caveats with that
Jun 02nd 2023
134
      also, not sure why everyone is down on Miami's zone...
Jun 02nd 2023
136
      well that didnt go well at all
Jun 05th 2023
160
           Nope Still think Denver wins in 5
Jun 05th 2023
188
                i dont even know how to reply to this
Jun 05th 2023
191
                     I think the best way for Denver to defend
Jun 05th 2023
195
There Is no defense that can truly stop Denver
Jun 03rd 2023
138
Miami came out motivated…
Jun 04th 2023
139
Lol, they came out motivated and mustered a 26 pt qtr
Jun 04th 2023
141
Team Murray
Jun 04th 2023
140
Colorado Avalanche last year , Nuggets this year …
Jun 04th 2023
142
Get that 3rd foul on Bam before the half
Jun 04th 2023
143
jokic and his Balkan hand gestures when pleading w the refs is funny as ...
Jun 04th 2023
144
Duncan Robinson out there flexing. Ok
Jun 04th 2023
145
Jimmy been trash again.
Jun 04th 2023
146
ECF Game 7 and two Finals games he’s looked exhausted
Jun 04th 2023
156
      he pulled it together at the end.
Jun 04th 2023
157
I’m in shock Re this 4th quarter
Jun 04th 2023
147
Denver been coughing up leads all playoffs long
Jun 04th 2023
148
Hard to beat a team that’s 50% from 3.
Jun 04th 2023
149
Man that was fun to watch. Just good TV
Jun 04th 2023
150
hmmm...that 3 point shooting tho.
Jun 04th 2023
151
Bam was stellar tonight
Jun 04th 2023
152
he was.
Jun 04th 2023
153
111-108, Miami steals game 2 @ Denver...
Jun 04th 2023
155
Miami stays stealing a home game early in these series
Jun 04th 2023
158
I move to drop the phrase the phrase 'stealing a game on the road'
Jun 05th 2023
167
Heat did a little of what the Dubs have historically done...
Jun 04th 2023
159
a lot of folks tucking their chest in after game 2.. lol
Jun 05th 2023
161
^^
Jun 05th 2023
162
lol
Jun 05th 2023
175
Hardly.
Jun 05th 2023
172
I had basically said they would have to limit Murray and Miami role...
Jun 05th 2023
164
      like i said, if they weren't brick ass cold, would be 2-0 Miami.
Jun 05th 2023
168
           And if they weren't hot ass shit in the 4th they are down 0-2???
Jun 05th 2023
179
                yes, they'd be 0-2.
Jun 05th 2023
183
                     Nuggets are most likely gonna win a title, not pressed at all
Jun 05th 2023
185
                          i don't give a shit if Murray was there or not.
Jun 05th 2023
189
"hey dom, keep an eye on our shit and see you next week.."
Jun 05th 2023
163
a lot of talk about the heat possibly regressing to the mean but
Jun 05th 2023
165
Bam shocked me given how he played last series
Jun 05th 2023
166
      man, i gotta give Bam A LOT of credit so far.
Jun 05th 2023
169
           Agree across the board. He's been excellent.
Jun 05th 2023
173
           AD got ran out the building last game
Jun 05th 2023
174
                AD had big offensive games against Jokic too
Jun 05th 2023
177
                     RE: AD had big offensive games against Jokic too
Jun 05th 2023
192
                          That averages to more than 25ppg lol…
Jun 05th 2023
198
Game went from a meh W to a bad L
Jun 05th 2023
171
Pretty Much.
Jun 05th 2023
178
      IIRC, Miami had only missed *one* shot halfway through the 4th.
Jun 05th 2023
180
that missed goaltend on murray floater was huge.
Jun 05th 2023
176
Mike Malone’s press conference was sort of degrading to
Jun 05th 2023
181
Naw man....
Jun 05th 2023
184
      pretty much.
Jun 05th 2023
186
      Naw. It wasn’t fine. ESPN’s Legs broke it down.
Jun 05th 2023
194
           You could do that.......
Jun 05th 2023

Jun 06th 2023
209
                                    The rockets will also start the season with the best record in the leagu...
Jun 06th 2023
215
