I'm starting to dislike this Nuggets team more and more. Jokic is such a big flopper for a guy his size.

He's one of those guys who throws his head back like he's JFK in Dallas! It's pathetic...

Denver vs Portland is really good.

Flagrant? That's a joke.

Portland just can't top Jokic. They closed the gap to 5 points, Jokic returned and Denver quickly got it back to 11.

Glad Philly won tonight.

If we advance past Milwaukee, I'd rather face them in the ECF than Toronto and I think a Boston/Philly match-up would just be really exciting for basketball in general.

I would also love it if an early exit from the Raptors causes Kawhi to run home to LA and not consider Toronto as a place he wants to be. I personally think he is going to LAC regardless if he were to win or lose the title this season in Toronto but if a series loss to Philly causes him to completely forget about staying in Toronto, that's good by me.

Agree, one less good player to worry about in the East.

Flagrant? That's a joke.

He flat out hit him the face. If that's not a flagrant, what is? That was a textbook flagrant.

That's a regular foul. He's clearly aiming for the ball.

Man, I find Denver to be extremely unlikable, primarily because of Jokic and Murray. I do really like Harris and Milsap, though.

Just when we thought the Nuggets would be first-round exit, they could represent in the West Finals and possibly sneak their way into the Finals.

I like Harris a lot.

Murray is one of my least liked players in the league tbh. I'm a fan of Monte Morris too

Wow, Philly won with Embiid going 12-6-5 Simmons 6-7-5 and Tobias Harris only having 9 points.

Way to go Jimmy Butler. CARRYING his team. 30, 11 and 5

Embiid did a good job on Siakam

Embiid did a good job on Siakam

This was pretty much the game for me. Embiid did do a good job, but I also believe Siakam missed some shots he should have made, particularly a corner three or 2. Danny Green was also uncharacteristically poor.
