That was an epic choke job by Denver

Yeah, I think this is the main take away from my view.
Ant man didn't shoot very well, it isn't like he willed them to victory.  A lot of the other guys on Minn made plays, and Denver just rolled over.
But that is what happens when you roll over in game 7, you are done for the year.

Glad that Minn won for their team and their fans.   Dallas - Minn going to be an interesting series.

It reminded me a lot of the Lakers-Celtics game 7 where everyone was cold in the 4th quarter except for Ron Artest who got hot for a few minutes and won the game for them

Defending champion Nuggets actually blew a 20-point lead in a game 7 at home. Incredible.

What is the best Nuggets forum chat room - Gotta be a complete meltdown.

Murray: 13/27 for 35 points.
Jokic: 13/28 for 34 points.

The entire rest of the Nuggets was 8/28 for 21 points. Just a huge let down by the supporting cast.
They should have kept Bruce Brown. This was like us letting go of James Posey too.

The lack of depth for Denver cost them big time this season. Also, how can they not have a backup center?

I guess the Pacers and the Wolves heard Draymond Green's diss the other day by counting them out already while interviewing Tatum.

They took that personal  ;D

Have the Pacers and Celtics played each other much in the playoffs?

I am thinking of the Chuck Person vs Larry Bird series. Then there were two series with average Paul Pierce sides. Any others?

We swept them back in 2019 when Kyrie was still on the team.

Two Larry, three Pierce, one Tatum.

With DEN struggling to score so badly, they probably should have tried Justin Holiday some more. Get some more shooting on the floor. Maybe shift MPJ up to PF and A Gordon to the bench. Put 4 shooters around Jokic.

At least the Jamal Murray >Jaylen Brown crowd on this board can attempt to take some moral victory from tonight, right?

Cs getting lots of hate on twitter (X). There’s seems to be an agenda where it’s anybody but the Celtics to win. Add to that, people are ready to put an asterisk if Boston ever wins, citing the injuries and breaks (Minny beating Denver). Crazy stuff. I don’t really care though, let’s go for banner 18!
