[Highlight] Alperen Sengun puts the Rockets up 1 vs the Nuggets with 2.3 left in the 4th quarter with his post work
Last 4 mins is fucking cinema
Beast, what a crazy game. Feels like a playoff one
And then Timmy boy just tripped over his own goddamn feet and somehow it’s a foul
Why do you lie? They showed angle from top, it’s clear Thompson made initial contact.
Zarba sucks
I think Amen did clip his leg, but idk if that gets deemed incidental or not
Dude already tripped over his own feet and was stumbling to the ground. sure Thompson clipped him afterwards but he’s out of control falling to the ground
I mean I thought I saw Thompson clip him, but the camera angles the broadcast had were dog shit
Should be game on that missed Joker three, no way this should be overtime
A trip is a trip
Nuggets were straight flopping all night trying to bait calls. Weak ass team
Houston I am so happy
Denver is missing anyone who plays defense
I dont like this from Houston.. I honestly feel like Denver might be a better team
Houston got DFS and tari waiting, two defensive wings.
cant compare it to AG and Brown and Watson .. Jokic and Murray play defense last 5 minutes of the game
bad loss for Houston, should”ve been +10
What??? You def can compare the rockets missing tari to those guys. He’s the second best wing defender on the team and he shoots 50% from three. Tari is a very big part of this team. They’re way better when he’s on the court. I hate when ppl say off they didn’t have these guys playing. I don’t like hearing that unless a team is missing there stars. Gordon is good but he’s not Jokic or Murray. Him and tari are on the same level. Maybe Gordon is better it’s debatable but in terms of impact on the teams they both negate each other by not playing. Rockets have Sengun and KD nuggets had Jokic and Murray nothing else matters. Yes Gordon makes them better but tari makes rockets better. I won’t even mention DFS because he hasn’t played this year. Not to mention FVV. Imagine how good this team would be with him playing this year? Rockets Nuggest and OKC are in a class of their own imo.
Lmao you don’t know ball
Houston has no PG. Bad look for Denver.
Denver has the best player of this generation ….and because of Jokic, they may be the best team at full strength
The NBA is so entertaining
Thank god nobody was up 3
but postups are so boring. why aren’t they chucking 60 3’s?
You can see Sengun is next up. His ability to do and hit anything inside the 3 is very much like jokic. What’s the difference is the three ball that is the one thing jokic does that Sengun just doesn’t. Maybe he gets there maybe not but either way this kid is really special. He’s mvp caliber talent he’s only 23.
The scary thing is I think he can do this every night he’s just really really good.
Rockets really got them one of those real franchise guys that will have you in the title picture.
I don’t know how ESPN doesn’t have him number 2 behind Wemby for the best under 25. As good as Cade is and he’s great don’t get me wrong this guy Sengun is going head to head with the best player in the world and doing the same stuff and putting up his own 30 point triple doubles. Incredible to watch
It’s coming, he went like 5⁄8 on three on opening night and had some great shooting games in euro league. Really seems to be a confidence thing with him, because he goes through slumps, not just in percentage, but where he barely takes any
Coming through in the clutch
Big bro said kd sit down I got dis
shades of game 1 of the season, you just knew no one could stop him
This game…
This game is cinema
Big daddy goon
Nuggets really benefit from these calls with seconds left on the clock..
Lots of options, but I’m still surprised that the ball doesn’t go to Durant at the end of games on this team. The previous play with less than a minute left, KD just hangs out at the 3 and if it swings to him then he’s like okay. But he wasn’t the first option
Last play of regulation, you knew Jokic was getting the ball
kd is too weak and cant cleanly catch the ball
“weak” Kd would at least hit rim on that last shot of the game
he wouldve turned it over. clearly you werent watching
I watched sengun miss the rim entirely and hit the back board
Durant is 2⁄3 on threes this game.
you dont know much about basketball do you
You sound like a typical bandwagon person on reddit that barely started watching basketball.
Your team man. If you’re happy with an ugly shot that goes straight glass to lose the game. Then fine with me.
Btw, you know you averages more turnovers than Durant. Sengun
this is like saying harden averages more turnovers than kawhi lmfao
Youre okay with rest of the post right. I guess better to have a shot go straight glass then risk a KD turnover. Durant just hit a big 3 near the end of regulation, but why trust that guy.
Makes sense. Your basketball knowledge is excellent.
OT
Denver won without Gordon (maybe the top 3 and D player in NBA), starter and top defender Braun, and new starter Watson….not promising for Rockets

lol what
Yeah I’m not sure this guy is watching the same game as us
The Nuggets are literally one of the most clutch teams in the Jokic era lol
