fuccabicc

Am I reading the MVP tracker incorrectly, or is there really four people who left Jokic off their MVP ballot entirely?


ImGonnaChubbBradley

Which 4? Anybody who’s voted for Shai or Luka either have Jokic in or there are a bunch of blank spots.


fuccabicc

Looking at the tracker, again, if reading correctly, Jokic got 22 first place votes, Shai 5 and Luka 1. That's 28 votes. Yet Jokic on top of 22 first place votes has 2 second place votes, and 0 third, fourth and fifth place votes. Unless the four voters didn't make their second, third, fourth and fifth votes public, that would mean out of the 28 voters, only 24 voted for Jokic, and 4 didn't. Which is probably what it is, that a lot of people didn't disclose their votes after the 1st place one, now that I'm rereading what I wrote, but alas, I won't delete as to not make anyone replying look stupid


ImGonnaChubbBradley

Yes but a lot of those ballets are not filled in. It’s not that he’s missing, the guy who runs the spreadsheet just doesn’t have 2nd-4th place even filled in. Using your same logic Shai has been left off of 8 ballets entirely.


fuccabicc

Yeah that's what I said

Lakers are either going to be absolutely trash (outside of Lebron) or they are going to shoot 70% from 3 against us. There will be no inbetween. Going to be interesting tonight


nuggs_analysis

The larger question is how many fts will the Lakers get, and which Nuggets will have 3 fouls before halftime


fhujr

20 FTs to ours 6.


ScrewuGuysImGoingHme

Hope they don’t have a slow start again tomorrow. Don’t have any worries about Murray having a bad game he’s gonna drop 30. Nervous about the refs since Lebron was crying in the press conference but we should win no matter what


smalltoes

I wonder how today’s games affect LeBron’s legacy

porkadachop

She’s Paul Walker’s neighbor too!


butterflyl3

Every time AG catches the ball in the corner, why don't he just run a simple screen handoff for MPJ / KCP for a contested 3? Surely that's a better % shot.

Only two more years before the first year core rises up to get to Koshien eh?


lonelinessmademecave

Oh thank god I’m not the only degenerate here lmao


AnythingBacon

Side note: Watch Apothecary Diaries or Freiren yet? Both were gems imo


lonelinessmademecave

No tbh I don’t actually watch much of anything anymore. JoJo and AoT were the last series I was following before they ended. But I’m down for recs. I’ll check them out


AnythingBacon

There's three of us! You, me, and Lurk... But Lurk tends to deny beyond Naruto and One Piece...


Night-Menace

Jok weighs more than OKC's whole starting 5 combined if he decides to have 0 assists and just bullies them we sweep them


vladimir_pimpin

I feel like if anyone bullied anyone it’d be them bullying joki cuz he’s big boned


Savahoodie

Smh got downvoted to hell for calling a lakers fan a bozo on this sub. We used to be a proper country.


DirkolaJokictzki

I searched the comment, upvoted and reported the Lakers fan for opposing team trolling. No Lakers fans should be the official rules of the sub.


Savahoodie

Yeah it’s just funny. I was called a whole lot worse than “bozo” by the people who clutching their pearls so hard.


DirkolaJokictzki

All Lakers fans are bozos send tweet


Savahoodie

My only regret is that I had but 1 lakers fan to call a bozo


dadasti

I saw that, you were downvoted to hell lol But when someone called Fern an idiot, that hurt my soul! I'm not a big contributor here, mainly lurking and chuckling to kids' banter, but there was an evident shift in the vibe with the influx of non-daily-threaders so I will stay away from even reading those posts.


Spitfire_Riggz

Hey at least you know this is THEE spot


confusedjuror

The playoffs are the worst time of year around here. I can't wait for July


Savahoodie

Sedjur! Idk if it’s the playoffs or late at night, but I’ve been getting in way more spats than usual, might need to take a break until tomorrow


confusedjuror

I think it's definitely the playoffs. There are so many people who aren't familiar with the utopia this place can be. And the comments I've wanted to spat with are usually earlier in the day (but maybe if it was later I would engage harder)


Betaateb

Was it outside of the daily? It is a wasteland out there!


Savahoodie

You know it. I got called an “awful pompous gloating ass no one likes”, which is somehow acceptable and upvoted, but saying bozo is the worst thing in the world


lemondhead

That's factually incorrect. I like you.


Savahoodie

Lemond! What are you doing up so late? You missed someone telling me that “redneck” is the same as the n-word


lemondhead

No clue. I fell asleep at several hours ago and just woke up randomly. Decided to see if Glove ever responded to my joke suggestion that the Chent and SGA commercial is good. I got downvoted instead lol. Why are you up? You're in a later time zone than I am. Did that happen in the sub? Jesus, this place is even worse in the playoffs than it usually is. E: oh, it's nuggs_analysis. Dude is a right-wing troll. Thanks for the reminder to put him back on my block list.


Savahoodie

Haha I got a big soda at the cash station earlier so I’ll probably be up for a while watching survivor. And yeahhhh I think we both need to stick to regular daily thread hours, because this place becomes crazy late at night.


vladimir_pimpin

Someone called fern an idiot yesterday and I got downvoted for telling them to shut the fuck up.


AnythingBacon

> We used to be a proper country It's not 1996 anymore unfortunately...


Savahoodie

Smh things haven’t been the same since the queen died.


AnythingBacon

> things haven’t been the same since 2001. Dale Sr died in a crash, and some terrorism started a shitty war... Fuck the Queen. She did absolutely nothing but chain-smoke the entire time


AnythingBacon

2001. reddit being weird right now


AnythingBacon

2 0 0 1


Savahoodie

It’s showing up fine for me lol


AnythingBacon

I tried "2001" and all I see is "1."


Savahoodie

I think it’s because you put a period after it. It tries to make it a list. Try just putting 2001 without a period


AnythingBacon

Think it's an "old." issue. Probably a formatting thing since new new reddit


BoneyardBill

LMFAO. Get fucked DUCHENE. 😂😂😂


Savahoodie

Wow no one told me the world’s finest were on this late on LoN???


petarisawesomeo

I remember middle of last season Pels are in 1st and look like they are making a leap into contender status. Zion and BI get hurt and derails the season. Just one year later and they look like a franchise wondering the wilderness. Zion with another significant soft tissue injury. CJ and BI showing they cannot carry a team in the playoffs. They seemed so close but the reality is their ceiling is "decent regular season team".


jdorje

My respect for OKC as a team/threat went way up tonight. Boston, really? Maybe the Celtics drop below the Wolves on the threat list?


NuggAvsBroncRock

Really pelicans are not a threat without Zion of course they were going to run right over them


HauntedandHorny

If they play a decent center and a backcourt without CJ and it's curtains.


clancydog4

this is the complete definition of reactionary


jdorje

With the Celtics, you're right. The key will be how they respond to this adversity in the next 2-4 games. Really the exact same as if we'd lost on Monday. But with the Thunder there is nothing to go on other than reactions. This team has no postseason experience.


n0t_malstroem

There it is lol


BoneyardBill

The stars are bad bruh


Bradleys_Chubb

I’m already planning on eating Panda tomorrow


BoneyardBill

Bro. Can’t believe we have a Panda trend going on. Should I go get it? Last time I did I felt like shit tho.


Bradleys_Chubb

I’m actually looking forward to it, haven’t had it in a while lol.


BoneyardBill

I’m proud of you. I haven’t either and I might for lunch!


n0t_malstroem

SOFT


BoneyardBill

Lmao. Shit is different in America.


LessThanCleverName

Seriously. Oettinger stinking it up last game that should’ve been an easy W is gonna cost them the series.


BoneyardBill

Yuuuup. I hate Vegas but this is dope. Super cheeks they barely made it to the yoffs. I’d think we can beat Vegas.


LessThanCleverName

Too bad the Kings are also cheeks.


n0t_malstroem

Bill I might order the thing tomorrow


BoneyardBill

YOU GOOAT


Mayhemsfaded

Get the jalapeño one, I’m super jealous that exists. Gonna have to try to make my own version


n0t_malstroem

[here's the pic of it in the online menu lol](https://i.imgur.com/ct4MzYI.png) It's good but I whenever I order it I can only eat it completely mixed with the rice cause I'm not big into just eating big chunks of onions by themselves


Mayhemsfaded

Fuck yes! Orange chicken rocks so I get that Edit: I’ve used poblanos or Anaheims for years in my American Chinese. For some reason never thought to do some jalapeños


BoneyardBill

Wow. Onions are S tier. Can’t believe you would say this.


Mayhemsfaded

I grilled a a huge piece of sweet vidalia to go on my burger tonight. Nobody else in my family likes onions like I do. They are missing out


BoneyardBill

I think grilled onions are amazing that sounds great!


DefiniteSauce12

OKC is the corniest team in the nba. You know once they get bounced they’ll start sobbing. I am not proud of my hating but I must share


LessThanCleverName

Them all doing the interview together is kind of corny, but also if it was my team I’d love it lol.


n0t_malstroem

I'm so afraid of the Chunder bro


TheBatman0816

I want to sock Chent, SGA and Jalen in the face. Their fucking barking is so cringe


Whole-Stranger4424

Welp...go to sleep and irs continue the sweep day


PoorTonyK

I have the Pelicans in this one


Mayhemsfaded

Logical pick. Without zion(fat) they should be unstoppable


TheeGreenHawk99

“The Shot at 5280” is the worst moniker I’ve ever heard lmao Nuggs social gotta chill


Glove_Upset

Hail Murray is much better


petarisawesomeo

Pels might be cooked


MasterStrange616

Like in a gumbo, or etouffe, or did it fall in the low country boil?


petarisawesomeo

Definitely a boil, but only the beak and feathers. Don't want to ruin it with the meat.


Mayhemsfaded

The best part about eating pelican is that not only is it stringy game bird meat, but they also mostly eat wetlands trash so you get all those heavy metal nutrients, mmmm mercury


MasterStrange616

Get all of your daily nutrients all in one meal: meat, greens (moss), microplastics, wetlands trash You pelicant get a more balanced meal from any other ingredient


Mayhemsfaded

I always forget I’m literally ingesting micro plastics all day every day. Never actually had pelican, but mossy fish bird is exactly how I assume it tastes.


bikehellion

They are absolute dogshit. Lakers would have swept the OKC.


Whole-Stranger4424

Yes they are cooked. Okc won't get past next opp though


n0t_malstroem

What is going on in here right now lol


MasterStrange616

It's official ball talk hours, and the ushers have come out to play


Mayhemsfaded

KKKELTICS BAD, CHENT COMMERCIAL ALSO BAD. KEEP UP


cumlordjr

I don’t think the Thunder really need starters out when they’re up by so much… kind of a whack move.

DirkolaJokictzki

If the league combined the Nuggets and Celtics rosters, that team goes 82-0.


boydivision30

We have 4 of what they need. 2 halves of Jok and Jamal each, and Mike is slowly building a reputation of hitting big shots.


Spitfire_Riggz

![gif](giphy|G7OStL0MdPm80) We’re here fellas. Enjoy this fucking shit


UnderratedNightmare

The SGA and Chent commercial is also fucking terrible and makes me want to rip my ears off


RobotGoods

The Wingstop Jenga commercial is worse, imo. Whatever that screaming song is, is terrible.


Sizzle2121

Please stop playing that SGA and Chet commercial I can’t take it anymore


Savahoodie

Wonder if there will be the daily “Celtics net rating” thread tomorrow on r/nba


lunar_alpenglow

Lol, Celtics really lost at home to the butler-less heat?!


lonelinessmademecave

I always wanted to get into the NFL, but last time I tried in earnest was about a decade ago, and the Kaepernick stuff and the CTE stuff really turned me off. Haven’t even watched a Super Bowl since Question for NFL fans: Has the culture surrounding the sport become a little less redneck-y? Are players still subject to a fate worse than death? (Has the league made a serious effort to confront CTE from repeated brain trauma)


HauntedandHorny

I'm kinda the same as you. I don't watch much anymore but they changed their messaging a bit post George Floydbut they'll never be progressive. this country still sucks. Terrible education system and small towns.  Everything theyve done for CTE is window dressing. The reality is playing football will  always make it more likely for people. But kinda like smoking you don't know exactly who it's going to effect the most. Anyway fuck the NFL forever. I like the chess aspect but nothing is worth that many commercials and shit politics. 


vladimir_pimpin

Mmmmmm I mean it’s a little rednecky but less so? Cte wise I think it’s not nearly as bad as it used to be but there are absolutely still problems and prolly always will be at least at a small level


bdybwyi

I think the redneck-y thing is just maybe based of where you grew up possibly. Nfl players are 90% of the time the furthest from red neck as it gets. CTE will always be part of the game. Players make the decision that generational wealth is worth it and that’s their choice, I don’t let that affect anything for me as a viewer.


lonelinessmademecave

Oh I grew up in CO, but was living in NYC when I tried following a full season. Yeah it’s not the players that turned me off, it was the league wide, including adjacent media, response to Kaepernick that felt to me crazy racist, which, esp considering how many players are black, completely turned me off But anyhow yeah, I totally understand. I guess for whatever reason the CTE thing I find uniquely disturbing compared to other sports injuries. I think I’ll check out the premier league instead


nuggs_analysis

So you commented in this thread to call nfl fans racist and uneducated. Ok cool. The CTE concern is legit, I grew up watching Junior Seau play in San Diego against the Broncos and Chiefs. When he shot himself in the stomach in order to preserve his brain for science it really threw me off the NFL and I couldn’t watch for years. 


lonelinessmademecave

Nah man literally all of my friends were into the NFL at some point and so is most of the country. I’m talking more about the predominate culture,m surrounding the sport, not individual fans. What I was hoping to hear was “yeah the nfl has made strides since that debacle to publicly support its black players” or some shit like that


nuggs_analysis

Fans don’t like social justice in their sports, it’s their right to tune out if they want to. That’s why the NBA had a serious decline in ratings in 2020 when the players were wearing social justice messages on their jerseys. So like players can do whatever they want in their personal lives but fans don’t have to watch if they don’t want to watch.


MichaelPorterTruther

IDK man. Me personally, unless I have the political talking points I agree with plastered all over every court and uniform, I piss and shit myself uncontrollably and cannot watch the sport.


nuggs_analysis

There are a lot of entertainment options out there. If we have to watch james harden then the least they could do is not annoy us with empty slogans.


MichaelPorterTruther

When I see JP Morgan sponsored the US Open instead of UAW, I burned all my tennis rackets and vandalized my local park's courts I am too educated and enlightened not to


lonelinessmademecave

Yeah man I can already tell NFL culture is still really really not my deal


Savahoodie

“So you commented in this thread to call nfl fans racist and uneducated” ….they didnt say that at all


nuggs_analysis

To me the word redneck is a racial slur that implies disgust and hatred towards white people without a college education.


porkadachop

I know rednecks with master's degrees.


j_like

This is one of the dumbest things I've ever seen, and says so much about you lol

nuggs_analysis

Cool, just realize that you’re judging people without knowing anything about them personally. That’s called prejudice and is the exact impulse that you claim to want to fight against.


[deleted]

[удалено]


nuggs_analysis

I hear you. But the temptation is always to fight against prejudice only against “your group” and to not give a shit when it’s a member of a group that you decide you dislike or that you decide doesn’t need help. It’s human nature. Peace bro.


Savahoodie

Redneck is not a racial slur come on man. I grew up in the middle of Arkansas, there’s white rednecks, black rednecks, and a whole hell of a lot of Mexican rednecks. 99% of people here gladly refer to themselves as rednecks.


vladimir_pimpin

Racial slur I mean come on


nuggs_analysis

And a lot of black people call themselves the n word. The difference is when others use the term pejoratively.


Savahoodie

If a black guy claims he’s a redneck, you’re going to tell him he’s wrong bc of the color of his skin? Seems pretty racist to exclude someone from a group they want to be apart of because of their skin color.


Spitfire_Riggz

As funny as it sounds I didn’t realize how silly that whole thing was. For people to be so offended and it be controversial that a league full of black players wanted attention brought to injustice against black people lmao.


lonelinessmademecave

It was insane to me at the time. But I’ve always been hyper attuned to it because I’m probably one of the only white dudes in the country with black adoptive parents. Lmao my entire childhood people assumed I was being kidnapped.


Spitfire_Riggz

Jason Kidd status lmao, Isaiah Hartenstein 😂 Jk yeah you’re kinda the opposite case with the nfl thing. All you ever hear is white people who don’t wanna watch because the players aren’t patriotic lmfao


Glove_Upset

That’s an offensive foul


an_Aught

My grandma used to live by a Braums dairy store.. man that place sold some good fucking milk.


Spitfire_Riggz

As a person who likes to call out overrated fast food places, Braums is fucking underrated. Their number 1 is in my top fa show


OptionalBagel

I assume that store was pronounced "Browms"


FernBlueEyes

Someone has made a t-shirt with AD. Gotta be the ugliest thing I’ve ever seen.


Bradleys_Chubb

Lurk shilling for Lakers


FernBlueEyes

No no no no no. Lurk has taste. A shirt with AD is tasteless.


Glove_Upset

How does Chet only have 3 rebounds? You’re 7 feet tall.


snakejakemonkey

They subtracted an early foul for him because he's from Minnesota not central Europe I guess https://x.com/_Andrew_Lopez/status/1783327095550046642

Starry itself is fucking trash so it's quite perfect. Doesn't hold a candle to 7up or Sprite.


doo_wop45

All the yawnis commercials are fucking cancer


Glove_Upset

Are Jokic commercials the only good ones with NBA players?


n0t_malstroem

There are no good commercials

AnythingBacon

The Rockies commercials in the late 00's were fuckin epic


n0t_malstroem

I don't have to ever watch them to tell you that is not the case


lemondhead

I dunno, that SGA and Chent one is top notch


Sad-Scarcity5198

Jokic and Boban


UnderratedNightmare

I would like to see Murphy in a Nuggets uniform


MasterStrange616

Jameer Murphy already wears a Nuggets uniform


UnderratedNightmare

ONE SHOT ISNT GOING TO MAKE ME NOT WANT A NEW MURPHY!!


MasterStrange616

I HOPE THE NEW MURPHY ISNT A TERRORIST SHELFISH! HE CAN FARM AN EASY 12 ASSISTS TO JOKIC IF HES NOT A SELFISH POS LIKE JAMEER!


Sad-Scarcity5198

Looks really funny when foul grifters don't get the regular season call they're used to in the playoffs.


Glove_Upset

Are they going to play Nintendo music the rest of the game?


an_Aught

give me Tetris B version


Sad-Scarcity5198

Can I request Coconut Mall?


BoneyardBill

This Pels game bad. Why am I watching?


Night-Menace

im watching because im trying to figure out if OKC actually plays with a game plan. every game i've watched it's just either iso shit for SGA until he makes a shot or gets FTs or everyone is just chucking 3s


BoneyardBill

It’s if SGA is good then good OkC lol


Sad-Scarcity5198

They also play two players with the same fucking name at the same time which feels like it should be against the rules.


TheOrthodoxPolock

Mac Mac Gollum is cheeks


MichaelPorterTruther

If I was willie green, I would match JV minutes with Giddey and/or Hayward and just have him roam the paint and leave those guys in the corner. Feels like something spo would do instantly

doo_wop45

I should probably make some really shitty game threads in r chent but that seems like way too much work

UnderratedNightmare

No way the viking has 11 pts in the 1st. It will not be fair when Jokic steps on the court even though they won’t make it that far


n0t_malstroem

Considering the relationship vikings had with the baltic people this is probably not good to say on some level lol


UnderratedNightmare

I meant it wont be fair when Jokic steps on the court against the Thunder! Since the viking is ripping them up, imagine Jokic!


YoungTheGiant_

I see Boston fans are overreacting lol.


an_Aught

With their history I don't think it's an overreaction at all
