Nugs hate is so real y’all! Everywhere I go “no one watching the finals” “heat in 4” “Lakers still better” I LOVE HOW MAD EVERYONE IS
Timofey Mozgov was in the back and spoke to Jokic.
I'm sorry but if Jokic is a basketball God then what is Lebron?? This is Jokic first finals…slow down with your fandom a bit
On the back of the shirt should be "and the vibes are immaculate"
Thanks for putting out content, idk what I would do for this week off without y’all! Also just got a notification that my shirts are on the way, thanks D-Line!
YOU CAN REMOVE BONES 😂😂😂
Always a blast hanging out with DNVR Family 🎉❤
Holy shit yall got bomani!! Can't wait for Thursday's show
about that celebration in sync, there are actually studies about exactly that phenomenom!
please correct me if Im wrong, I just heard/read about it like once,
but if you spend a lot of time with the same people or just one person, your brains kinda sync to each other( I dont know what exactly leadts to this anymore) and you begin to notice, that those people tend to do things in exactly the same way. You can spectate it from time to time in sports with people, that played together for a long time.
I think there are quite a few of those moments you can look up at youtube
I like the "All the Nuggets are good" but why do u have to have a rainbow? Makes it look like a pride shirt
@8:00 i feel like Luca hits those shots
i was at the watch party last night. thank you d line and vogt for talking selfies with me. see you at the parade.
You have to wonder why it took Malone 7 years to realize the benefits of running in Denver… and he definately ran some good talent away. But if Jokic wants him that's what matters.
I love you guys calling out Teflon James and his hot garbage takes. Remember in March when he said this team will fail in the playoffs? He admitted that he didn't watch the 2nd half of the Nuggets game 4 because of how disgusted he was at halftime.
Top 10 of this series:
1. Jokic – obviously
2. LeBron – more consistent then Murray, plus both had big quarters
3. Murray – killer instinct
4. Davis – disappeared for long stretches
5A. Reaves – all around good play, more time than BB
5B. Brown – all around good play
7. Pope – energy and big shots
8. Porter – even more big shots, less efficient though
9. Hachimurra – potential star, Joker figured him out though
10. Gordon – not much impact on offense until game 4
24:00 My favorite Joker screaming moment was when he passed it back to KCP in the 3Q for the and 1. You could actually hear it on the broadcast
SAME PANTS WITH THE FELLAS
Guys don't be a stat nanny, same way stat don't describe everything Jokic does, they don't define what Lebron does, let's not have the cake and eat it too, we are not casuals, we actually analyze the game, LeBron was better than Murray, it's hard to compare those two because they have different roles, the way I do it, I put them both as a no1 option, imagine Jamal as the leader of the team and AD as a second option, don't think that team makes it far…that's how you compare those two…one thing you could say, Jamal performance was maxed out this series, he actually filled his "role" the best of any player this series. But pick up game when you have 20 players from those two team, if you get Jokic+Lebron and anybody who can hit a shots from outside, that team is winning more than Jokic+Murray
Well, I have to make one correction to DNVR and to stress out that Nuggets are THE team. It is not true everybody can play with Yoke, and we seen it in practice in Serbian National Team. He had beside him two European MVPs, but nothing functioned as it should, and the biggest problem was that other players simply couldn't catch his passes, he had more failed than succesfull passes (mostly because players on the other end couldn't manage it). Also, pick and roll and 2 men plays didn't function as well, it had some success, there are supreme players in Serbian National Team that can play it devastating, but it was, again, nothing near Yoke has with his team mates in Nuggets. And than you also have totaly different Yoke, not getting half points he used to, mostly nervous and angry… Problem is obvoius; national teams are configurated two weeks before competition and there is not much time for achieving level of cohession regular teams has, but I also doubt it will be successfull if you put the best of the best from NBA instead Nuggets players and give them 2 months to train together, this level of team cohession is not comming without several years of playing together.
So, trust me, it is far far from truth anyone can play with Yoke, and we in Serbia also know that Yoke cannot play with anybody, for sure not on this level, he needs certain type of players with certain skills and level of mutual understanding. This kind of Yoke can currently exist only in Nuggets, and that is why Nuggets are THE TEAM. You said it several times: it had been built for years, and it cannot be rebuilt or copy-pasted with some shorcut with some other players…
"You can remove Bones"
Hahahaha that pun was underrated. D-Line too funny, naturally.
Hopefully your Favorite Lakers Fan here. Congrats on not only getting the 1 seed, beating KD and now not only going to the Finals but sweeping my Lakers, it sucks losing but when you lose to a well run organization from the front office, coaches, players and fans. Unfortunately you guys still aren't getting covered as you should. Lebron had to a clown and fake retire but Congrats keep it up can't wait for the Finals.
Nikola doesn't shoot he throws assists to basket
Member Marcus Camby's shot?
We need to get our regular season game televised on major networks. Comcast and Kroenke #figureitout
“No! What?!” Lol
we can easily sweep miami
When the Nuggets got rid of Bones that was a good sign also Boneless Nuggets
Just stop bullshitting your self and come back to Serbia, that is solution to your problem guys 😉
