Well, he is not that old. Still only 45. That makes you younger!

 

[AzStevenCal]

Wow i always hated CP3, but last night takes the cake. Acting, flopping, then he gets the refs to stop the clock to review Hardens saved ball from Westbrook's airball.

I hate the terms...smart, savvy, verteran plays, etc

Its plain out right cheating and deceiving the game.

He was my favorite non-Suns player until he landed with the Clippers. I've always wondered whether I just didn't see him play often enough to realize what a complete cheater/douche he was or if he changed after landing in LA. Regardless, there is no player in the NBA I detest more than Chris Paul and it's not even close.

the Desert Classic lol

I used to go to that way back in the day

 

[Mainstreet]

Celtics leading the Raptors by 6 with 5:41 to go. Looks like it will go down to wire.

I'm looking forward to the Jazz-Nuggets game to follow.

 

[Mainstreet]

Celtics go up 2-0 in series.

They beat Raptors 102-99.

VanVleet 3-12 from 3-point range.

 

[Cheesebeef]

The Raptors look like crap after looking great before the quarantine and during the bubble.

 

[Mainstreet]

Shooting is a big part of the story for Raptors: Siakam (6-16), Lowry (5-16) and VanVleet (8-22).

 

[Mainstreet]

Point guard Monte Morris is such a bargain for the Nuggets and they have a team option next season for only $1,723,707.

 

[GatorAZ]

Just wanted to point out I was on the Marcus Smart bandwagon a year ago.

 

[Mainstreet]

Jordan Clarkson would be nice in free agency.

 

[Mainstreet]

Nuggets lead Jazz at half 50-36.

 

[Mainstreet]

Mitchell scores 14 points in a row to narrow Denver's lead to 55-45 in 3rd quarter.

 

[Finito]

Donavon Mitchel 14 points in a row out of half time coming out swinging

 

[Mainstreet]

Earlier in the game the Nuggets would double team Mitchell at half court and make him give the ball up. I'm not sure why they went away from that. Now Mitchell can get any shot he wants.

 

[Mainstreet]

Murray hasn't been the same since he collided with Ingles earlier in the game.

He has only 13 points on 5-15 shooting.

 

[Mainstreet]

Nuggets cannot make shots.

Jazz lead 66-65 with 8:25 in 4th quarter.

 

[Mainstreet]

Murray finally makes a basket. Nuggets lead 76-74 with 2:11 left in game.

 

[Mainstreet]

It looked like two tired teams slugging it out.

Nuggets win 80-78.

Jazz had a good look at a 3 point shot at the buzzer.

Nuggets win series 4-3.

 

[GatorAZ]

Got off the couch for that shot.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

That was an exciting end.

 

[Mainstreet]

Torrey Craig attempting that shot for Denver with 4.4 seconds left almost cost them the game as it gave the Jazz one last shot attempt at a 3-pointer that missed by Conley.

 

[Mainstreet]

Here is a video clip of final seconds of Nuggets- Jazz game.

Clips v. Nugz could be a lot fun.

Earlier in the game the Nuggets would double team Mitchell at half court and make him give the ball up. I'm not sure why they went away from that. Now Mitchell can get any shot he wants.

I wondered why they didn't do that again or call a timeout. They just let them get back into the game when clearly the momentum and lead wasn't going the Nuggets way.

Murray hasn't been the same since he collided with Ingles earlier in the game.

He has only 13 points on 5-15 shooting.

I really hate Ingles. His head bobs and flopping. Then he manages to sneak these kinds of cheap shots in the games too. Really gets under my skin.
