Hope Miami can pull it out. Make it interesting to go back to Miami. Seems like bam is the only heat player really into it though. So the fact the nuggets have matched the rest of the heat seems like it could go either way in the 2nd.

Partly that and partly Jokic being scared to play with any physicality given the heinous refball for that stretch. It's totally ****ed his entire game up.

Was putting the kids to bed so I only saw the last minute and half of the first half.

Lowry was trying to piss him off and get him to take another foul. That was funny. Won't work though.

Then again

Jokic is doing his usual, but the others aren't. At least not yet.

I recall the Raptors played a really choky game like this up 3-1 on the KD Warriors at home before closing it on the road. Kawhi nearly won it for them at the end of game 5 anyway before Iguodala hit a 3 at the end to push it 6.

With all that physical play Nuggets would be winning if they would just hit their free throws.

Jimmy Butler looks even more broken and old than usual. The Heat are playing horrific half court offense.

This is elite nba basketball. Played at the highest level.

Good thing Porter Jr can rebound because he sucks at everything else tonight.

It's hard to find a non Jokic player on the floor on either team who doesn't suck tonight.

LMAO That was an entertaining stretch of awful basketball

True, but he seems even worse tonight. Almost every shot that is more than 3 feet away is a brick and his defense is non existent.

Porter with a glimpse of what could've been if not for the ****ed back.

Not long after I speak poorly on Porter he nails a big 3.
