Can anyone stop the Nuggets from winning back-to-back championships? | NBA | SPEAK
It is looking ugly if you are not a Denver Nuggets Fan Joy they have run through just about anybody that seemed like a formidable opponent can anybody stop the Nugget from repeating it doesn’t look like it it does not at all it doesn’t look like it I mean people are having some nice
Seasons they having real good Seasons some good Seasons I don’t want to I don’t want to get too crazy and say cute they’re having some good Seasons but nuggets look different and here’s what’s scary about the Nuggets last year you know we had some questions still you
Know can make it all the way through are they going to come together all the role players going to step up all these moves that they made well now that their Champs we don’t have to wonder if they have the experience they know what it takes to win a championship they know
Who’s got to step up they know how hard it is to do it so not only are they playing with the confidence that they’re good they know what they’re capable of doing that’s just an entirely different level of confidence I mean I I think that the playoffs will be more
Competitive than they were last year but as far as somebody stopping them look a lot can happen in the postseason it’s a very very long postseason there’s a lot of games you got to account for for injuries stuff happens but if they’re playing the way that they’re playing
Right now and everyone’s available it is really hard to make a case that they’re not going to be in the finals representing the Western Conference if it wasn’t the Celtics I didn’t know who to me the Celtics match up best out of anybody in basketball why because the
Celtics got length you got Jason Tatum out there he’s 6’8 you got porzingis out there he got height on them you know what I’m saying like the Celtics have L the Celtics have experience that was a dilemma like that ended up being the Dilemma like but but
That’s that’s my problem is when you think about Denver why they’re so Unstoppable you got a 6103 you got a 6104 and they can move usually when CS come out there playing big you just say you know what let’s go small ball and we’ll just run him off the court but
Michael Porter Jr is just as fast as your 663 Aaron Gordon is just as athletic if not more athletic than your 68 or your 694 so how can you stop the Nuggets when anything you can counter they can counter with they’re just as fast they’re just as deep they can shoot
The Trey Ball just as well if not better they got the better best player on the court because Joker is going to be better than anybody’s best player on the court more likely than not so I don’t know James Jones how the Nuggets can be
Stop yeah it’s going to be tough um the scary thing about the Nuggets is they whooping people and they ain’t even playing their best basketball at all you know like some of these games I’m like they could play better and they still whooping people so if I had to pick one
Team to be honest with you um porzingis yes he has length but he ain’t guarding nobody yeah you know he he he’s not guarding nobody it’s still the Suns for me Kevin Durant Bradley Bill a healthy Booker when those three dudes are healthy they average 121 points um so
When you averaging 121 points you ain’t your defense ain’t really got to be like that the other team gota got to put the put the ball in the basket so I think healthy wise if both these teams are healthy I think the Phoenix Suns can
Give them a run for their money in in the playoffs that’s the matchup that I’m looking forward to see and the only team that I can look at right now that can say can slow down or even beat the Denver Nuggets I don’t know James I just I’m all about matchups man
And I don’t see anybody matches up well against them right because they can play this the the the half court game right they got the size and the athleticism you talked about they got the shooters they got the pick and roll game with Jamal Murray and yish and then they
Really want to run yeah and when we run even my point guard got it oh that’s cool he don’t have to have it cuz our best part on the team are seven-footer with a lot of stomach on him yic runs the point yeah and then they got
Shooters so I just I don’t know man and and another thing I like about this team is like they’re Co they had coaches he’s phenomenal right even last year U when they played the suns in the playoffs I watched how how Mike was was challenging them guys man we’re not playing defense
We’re not playing well we play this we going get blown out calling all the starters out which you don’t really see that in basketball football you might see you don’t see that in basketball right so I I love everything about this team and then they know their roles
There’s how many times you see Star players we talking about um um star power on this team because they don’t have a lot of it but they all know their roles if I didn’t get enough shots this game I’m cool with that I’ve seen yic have 15 points another 14 assists 20
Rebounds and he’s happy cool right it’s a triple double but there’s games we have the 35 points and it looks a lot better but he still has the same type of attitude and they have the same type of of great Vibes as if he had 30 points to
15 points so I just I just love the Nuggets man I think for the West I got them going all the way but I will say this this year this playoffs it’s going to be a lot harder though right if you look at all the seedings right because
Now the timber worlds are top seed now the OKC’s a top seed right all these teams that you didn’t think are really that good now they are good so guys like like the like the Kings Kings is a really good team they’re the seventh seed right the last year’s Western conf
Was finals um the Lakers they’re in the playing The Warriors you never know what you with the Warriors they in the playing so this is going probably be the hardest year for the Nuggets but I do think they come out on top what was interesting watching last night’s game
Was it’s easier for the Nuggets to get a easy basket than it is for anybody El absolutely think about it think about it drew holiday had to hit a Trey Ball then Drew holiday had to back door and hit another Trey Ball nuggets were still up
Nuggets were still up 111 to 109 then Jaylen Brown gets a steal Jaylen Browns had a phenomenal game you find Jason Tatum wide open in the corner for a Trey Ball to take the lead and Jason cadum can’t do it so what it would have taken
For the to take the lead after being down by roughly 10 points the entirety of the fourth quarter a Drew Holiday trade ball which happened got that another Drew Holiday trade ball it happened you got that then you need Jason Tatum to hit a trade ball and you
Can’t get it meanwhile The Joker he’s just going to post up turn around find a cutting Aaron Gordon it’s going to be easy dunk it’s just so hard to get a easy basket whereas for the Nuggets James Jones I just see it in Joy Taylor being extremely easy to get a easy
Basket going to be hard to beat going to be very very hard to beat subscribe here to get the latest from speak and go watch a few segments from our other shows on FS1
The Denver Nuggets defeated the Boston Celtics 115-109 in what could be a preview of the NBA Finals. Nikola Jokić finished with 32 points, 12 rebounds and 11 assists in Denver’s big win. This raises the question of whether the reigning champs can be stopped. Emmanuel Acho, Joy Taylor, LeSean McCoy and James Jones debate whether anyone can stop the Nuggets from winning back-to-back NBA titles.

The Suns and Bucks.
The only team that can beat the Nuggets are the Nuggets
Its the Bucks not the Celtics.
They have the best player in the league
Jokic is an alien. The questions right now is how long will his prime last?
Og can stop the joker
They have bench problems whoever exploits their bench they can be stopped but not a lot out of teams can do that
Nuggets healthy they win titles
The suns? Lmfao they’ll get lucky to get 2 games in the first round
Yes the Suns just did that 2 days ago
Suns can beat them. Suns took two games from them last year with KD only playing 8 regular season games with the Suns, no CP3 & Ayton who is too soft for Jokic. Suns have more depth and Denver don’t look as good as they did last year. Nuggets have no bench & just lost to the Suns at home with no Booker
They accually talked about the NUGGETS for 6 minutes! Wow! Never thougt I’d see the day…
The Nuggets play a tight rotation in the playoffs. Suns won’t handle them. The only team that can is the T Wolves with Gobert and KAT. Gobert can limit Jokic at the rim and rebounding. KAT is a dynamic scorer that pairs well with Gobert. Never thought I’d see it
Shady's better at basketball analysis than at football analysis.
Celtics vs Clippers would be CRAZY!
suns just beat them..?
Jokic/ Murray/ Nuggets just hit different in the playoffs.!! Get ready for back to back Nba championships trophy’s 🏆 🏆.!!
Twolves out west Bucks out east
Nuggets going down 1 round 💯💯🤟
I forgot bout pelicans 😭😭😭it gotta be a team with LENGTH TO BEAT THEM!!!💯💯💯💯😜
Fully healthy Suns, Clippers and Bucks are the only teams that have a chance.
Man I rem when this whole crew was hating on jokic.
Acho didnt even watch the game. Who says the nuggets can make the three ball when the team just shot 19%…
And James hasnt watched a lick of ball based on how little he added to the conversion.
Sad when Shaddy is the one who has the knowledge.
