  1. I agree with your nuggets take. Although it is hilarious how your opinion on the teams the nuggets went through on their finals run has changed in hindsight. 😭

  2. As long as the nuggets have Jamal and Jokic they could lose anyone of the other three.
    Mpj is the one easiest to replace, he steals rbs from Jokic all the time. Then it's AG then kcp… but any of those three can be lost and the nuggets still role…

  3. I bet money we will get a video tomorrow of how “encouraged” Jason is about the lakers 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

  4. Mailbag Question: youve been talking about How OKC needs a big strong fourman, and the no brainer for that position would be Lauri Markenan, would that immediately make them championship contenders?

  5. Offense the Joker? MJ Kobie peak Penny Hardaway Grant Hill theyre all more explosive offensively among many other players lije the Dream Bird peak Bernard King….

  6. as much as i love jokic, i feel like shaq was more unguardable. the only way to guard him (in his prime) was hack-a-shaq. despite his bricks from the line, i feel like intentionally fouling is just a way out of guarding him, since there was no way to truly do that.

  7. 7 game win streak, Suns lost 1 game by 3. That’s the title hahah. Make sure to title your next video Lakers LOCKED DOWN by Thunder. lmao they just lost by like 20

  8. Nuggets are great, too much recency bias for best ever talk lol. More unguardable than curry, mj, shaq etc? And a better lineup than the 96 bulls, 2017 dubs, 86 celtics etc. Let em win a few more rings first. But nice breakdown by jason as usual

  9. Their lineup is highly synergistic but I feel like it is still missing an elite defender. KCP & Gordon are good but not elite.

  10. I don't know Jerami Grant but I know Pascal Siakam. On the warriors – Siakam would get to play in a good offensive system as the 1B Offensive option – not the 1A. He doesn't have good shooting but he can score in iso/dominate in the post/handle double teams fluidly.

    Siakam has been playing in Toronto on hard-mode and would look absurdedly good on the Warriors as a THIRD person who can handle the ball as an offensive leader – alongside Draymond and Steph. That said – if the Raptors traded Siakam I would stop watching them.

  11. I’m confused are you saying the Denver Nuggets are better than the 80s lakers and Celtics? Buddy, go grab some old VHS tapes, your embarrassing Cowherd.

  12. AG and MPJ could be traded for many different players and Denver would be better. “Synergy” is horseradish, it’s purely Jokic elevating them all.

  13. I hate to say this but warriors small ball of curry, Thompson, Livingston, iggy, and green was disgusting to watch
