Not really. I like seeing athletes flying through the air and elite quickness. Hopefully Scoot can save the NBA...for me. For big men I like watching Embiid, Giannis, Zion. I really dont want to see a resurgence of big men unless they are freak athletes.

Did you like the Spurs at all? That was peak Basketball and the Nuggets and Jokic are the closest thing to it.

He finishes the buffet circuit every year.

Kurt Rambis would **** up Jokić - trust me! Dude is in the NBA at the right time. No Kurt Rambis!

****ing hated everything about the Spurs. Awful for the NBA, they were.

So now that I've looked into this, it just appears that it was a skit gone wrong.

McGregor is an asshole, but whoever came up with that dumb skit is to blame for this one IMO.

The NBA does dumb skits like this all the time now. The only game I ever went to had one (apologies for the tiktok embed, spoilering).

Spoiler!

McGregor's just been the guy that always takes things too far now and did it again here. He attacked a fan taking a picture just a couple of years back and attacked the Italian equivalent of Ryan Seacrest (breaking his nose). In a scripted MMA beef he also had him and his boys attack his opponents chartered bus, breaking windows in the process. I agree it was a terrible idea by the NBA to do this with Conor's recent history and I wonder with the inevitable fallout (and lawsuit) if NBA owners will reconsider this trend.

He's known for finishing in a couple different contexts.

Letting them play. Damn getting physical early

Yikes. This is some laughably heinous refball.

Miami is playing with a ton of energy, but I don't see them being able to maintain this pace.

Refs impacting the game by letting one team be physical and the other not

'physical' is an understatement LMAO

Nuggets shooting like shit from 3 and only down 7 at half. I think they will get hot and put it away

Miami should be scared shitless. That was an awful half of basketball by Denver and they're still easily in range of running away if even one guy gets hot.

Denver is choking tonight. Not surprising given what is on the line. That probably won't last the entire game, but it's Miami's only chance.
