    Granby Ranch 100 times out of 100 for me. Quiet, but can be in Winter Park in 15 minutes if you want. Can ski both places with ease.

    I would ordinarily steer folks away from Granby Ranch but in this case it could be a good fit.

  2. Just a rough game today. Bad shooting on both sides. Game trend started the same as G3 (lost 1st, won the next 2 quarters) just that the Nuggets got their ass kicked in the 4th. Disappointed we couldn’t find AG or CB more when Murray wasn’t finding his shot. Up 6 to start the 4th to go up 3-1 only to lose hurts real bad right now.
    Nuggets went ice cold in the 4th after they got the lead.

    On to game 5...

    Pressure now on Denver for Game 3.  If they lose that, they're in trouble.  You can't help but to wonder if they're starting to wear down.  They've gone every other day now for awhile.  Winner of this series likely wins the whole thing considering what is going on in the other series.  

     

    I don't think there's any more pressure on the Nuggets than the Thunder.  Nuggets are happy coming home 1-1. They certainly need to play a lot better, though.

    Just checked back into my hotel room in Alpine after a day in Big Bend, and of course, Johnny’s too much of a chicken shit to even state whether or not selling off our nation’s natural treasures is a good or bad thing. 

    Imagine being so pussy whipped by the retard-in-chief that you’re too scared to voice an opinion on such an obvious fucking wrong.

    Frank Drebin is Johnny?  That makes a lot of sense.

    Which national parks do you expect to be sold off in the next 4 years?

    Aren't you the one with a house in Montana who likes to ski?  You want to see the national forests and BLM land sold off and developed or clear cut? This isn't just about national parks.  Maybe he could sell off the ski resort where you ski.  How would you like that? Or the open space you use to recreate.

    Lol y'all are acting like OKC doesn't force turnovers or poor shots. Nuggets aren't going to shoot 40% from 3 every game and commit less than 10 turnovers. This isn't a good matchup series for Murray and MPJ is MPJ. 

    I think Westbrook is a bit of an x-factor this series. He and Gordon last night were huge. 

    Never said that. Of course they do.  Just refuting the 'Denver played well and barely won' narrative.  Nuggets can play much better than that.

    This. The Nuggets far from played their best game. We rebounded much better than expected, but I think part of that is OKCs team allowing it. Against the Clips in game 7, we shot 38% from 3. If we shoot a similar % and play similar D and rebounding to game 1, even with the turnovers we’ll be in every game. Last night shot 31% from 3, but we shot 8-17 in the second half which made the comeback possible.

    Really want to see less turnovers, because the Nuggets made it much harder on themselves than it needed to be last night. Even Jokic had a handful of bad TO’s. Murray just playing a decent game would be a massive help. He needs to than Russ and CB today. Also loved Russ playing most of the 4th with MPJ sitting. If MPJ ain’t shooting well, that’s the move every night.

    That said, Nuggets win game 2 and I see the series as over. Nuggets have the benefit of their home games being on more fan’s drinking nights/times: Friday night (G3), Sunday early afternoon (G4), Thursday night (G6). The crowd will be insane Friday night regardless, but a chance to go up 3-0, it will be dummy loud.

    Fuck, forgot about all the turnovers, too.  Nuggets turned the ball over 18 times last night, which is WAAAY too many.  OKC only had 9.

    Vic Lombardi said MPJ's shoulder is so bad he needs help getting his jersey on and off. I'm not sure how much he's gonna contribute but he's tough as shit being out there at all.

    On the flip side, Denver played pretty well, OKC did not late and it still took a miracle for Denver to win.  Also, can Denver hold up playing like that every other night just seven guys?

    Murray shot 37% from the field and MPJ (who has a badly sprained left shoulder) was 1 for 8 from the field.  Even Jokic was barely above 50% from the floor.  They rebounded well and played solid defense, but I wouldn't say they played well.

    They've played with a short bench the entire season.

    I think part of it is OKC doesn’t really have any bigs defenders that wear on you like the Clips and Wolves have. Easier to run when you’re not getting bodied constantly.

    Yeah, I think people really underestimate Zubac's effect on the last series.  He's one of the few bigs in the league that can effectively bang with Jokic.
