Nuggs are showing more heart than the Rockets, who laid down and quit the last 2 games of the series.
Wow. How can you not root for this nuggets team. Down 16, keep fighting and now they’re up 13. Go nuggets!
JVG with some truth: "Your effort can't be dictated by how good or bad things are going. You have to play with intensity no matter what." I'm big a Harden defender as the next guy but that is the last part of his game that his missing. That fight back, that resiliency, that f**k you attitude no matter what. I don't care about "killer instinct" or whatever else the media heads talk about, that fighter mentality is what I want. Effort no matter what, every game. This Nuggets team has it, Rockets do not.
Nuggs giving me championship Rockets vibes with these comebacks from being down 3-1 multiple times in a row.
If Clippers fail to get to the WCF with this team. That would just be fantastic. Foster-Brothers-Davis Game 7? 4 consecutive 7 game series for Nugs Spurs Blazers 2019 Jazz Clippers 2020
Formula for success for the Nuggets: - Be down 1-3 in a series - Be down 16+ points against the Clippers at any point in the game.
You don't want to be a frontrunner, when you're only upbeat when it's going well for you and your team. You have to have the same resolve, even more resolve, to pick others up and pick yourself up when it's not going well, when the ball's not going in, when you're not getting the shots you want. Anyone can be upbeat when it's going well for you. Whose got the spirit when it's going bad for you? - JVG Are you listening James Frauden? Are you listening Rockets?
I think a lot of teams screwed up when they didn't take Michael Porter Jr. Think how badass this team is going to be when Michael Porter Jr starts playing like himself. This nuggets team is like a juggernaut.
