  1. Would be happy with Kiffin if he were to retain PK
  2. Sagopolutele is so good. True freshman. His touch in the intermediate reminds me of Ewers at his best.
  3. Oh I know he’s high off of a championship and arrogant about it and doesn’t see that Alex Caruso fouls everyone he guards while Christian Braun has some of the best lateral quickness on the perimeter in the NBA but gets called for every touch foul on SGA and Curry.
  4. Disagree on the starting. We like Braun plenty. A healthy MPJ wouldn’t have been replaced by an 8 or 9th roster guy on OKC. Either way, glad we’re back boys.
  5. Yeap, Nuggets played OKC the best of all teams and that was with no bench and a one armed MPJ and a Jamal Murray that was partying/gambling at Blackhawk late into the night during the series. Many Nuggets players seemed to work harder this offseason. Murray actually showed up in shape this year. AG’s performance in G1 wasn’t a fluke. Dude worked hard this offseason. I take it back looking at my expired stubs I went to all Nuggets home games in the OKC series: 3, 4, and 6. Forgot I bought tickets to the other game we didn’t have rights for pre-public offering.
  6. I’m a Nuggets half season ticket holder. Was at the game 5 of the finals clinching game against the Heat and 2 of the series games with OKC last year.
  7. I’m not gonna disagree with you here but it’s early and the Clips played really well down the stretch last year and were a tough out for the Nuggets. Clips are more likely than the Lakers for me, but I would expect them all to be in the playoffs.
  8. Yeah but I mean with Dallas you have Flagg plus Kyrie (when back) and AD. Luka and Flagg with the bigs Dallas had would have also been a great team.
  9. Can’t wait until we play your team of foul defenders and floppers in the playoffs again.
  10. I mean the west is absolutely insane. OKC, Rockets, Spurs, Nuggets, Warriors, Lakers, Wolves, Clips all could win the west. Won’t add the Mavs just yet. Get Kyrie back though and they may be up there as a favorite.
  11. Ya not saying we don’t. Game 1. Hell during the game I’m looking at NBA Finals champ odds because I was so damn excited by how well we scored with Jokic sitting which has been our biggest problem in the past.
  12. Yeah Jok and Braun were off. Jok still had a triple double, but man his defensive effort was worse than normal. Cam is still trying to figure out his spacing and off ball movement on offense, but would have liked to have him hit more 3’s. I felt Murray actually played pretty well. Better than 50% from the floor. JV looked really good in his limited action. THJ is looking like a nice piece too. Excited for this season. Our first game we have in our half season is the Pels Wednesday.
  13. Amen. Am grateful for Texas football for as long as we got it. No amount of frustration on the offense will change that. Invested.
  14. Jokic jacking up 3’s in overtime with AG going 10-11 for 3 is definitely an approach. Stupid loss Nuggets.
  15. And I’d love to see it.
  16. Many sportsbooks went from Texas -7.5 to Texas -6.5 back to Texas -7.5. 10 units on MSST +7.5 for me. Hedging my happiness Saturday. Needed that hook though. Still think we win something like 21-17/24-21. Last week’s Texas ML & the under parlay was def the move to feel better about the worst offensive performance I’ve watched since the Arky Texas Bowl that I was dumb enough to go to.
  17. OTF was talking more about JJR and maybe Filsaime, if he’s healthy, replacing Taaffe more than DWill this morning. Not sure what’s going on there with DWill.
  18. Ah fuck you’re right, “Derek.” And I knew that. Also wanted to differentiate from Jonah Williams.
  19. What’s going on with Derrick Williams? Thought he was awesome when he played his true freshman year and last year before his injury. I had half expected McDonald at Star some to get Derrick Williams on the field at safety, but with Filsaime getting Star snaps along with Littleton and JJR seeing the field at safety, it’s almost like Derrick Williams is still hurt or considering a transfer. Kinda weird.
  20. That’s fair. If that’s the case then we really need to call into question the position choice at the start of the year. Considering the guys we brought in at WR, the only viable excuse considering 2 of our 6 RBs were returning from very serious injuries on a short timeline is that Terry wanted to start at WR.
  21. I mean we’ve got 3 guys healthy for this weekend, barring any injuries in the next 2 days. If Baxter never comes back, then sure, if there’s an additional injury or we’re blowing out a conference foe.
  22. I highly doubt Terry plays at RB this weekend if his first practices at RB were late last week. Just seems way too soon for a true freshman.
  23. With Terry, how soon can we realistically expect him to get game snaps if his first practices at RB were a practice or two leading up to OU? Not sure he sees the field all that much this year unless we’re in a really bad place at RB injury wise.
  24. And this is why Wisner is good for this team on OZ now that Stroh has his big stiff ass on the bench. He stretches, finds a lane to cut back as OL are riding them and explodes.
