@tlance must be asleep now because no way does he go this long without responding and/or seeking a rise out of other posters.

Again, take off your homer glasses Mr. GS.

They'll have Klay Thompson back and we still won't have Murray or MPJ.

You still think I am a GS homer?

Man you are dumb.

Denver had like 7 players on the road. They were going to lose this game. And yes, I realize they just beat GS. Later in the season they will also probably lose.

Murray and MPJ are out for season so I don’t know why you are talking about them.

And I said it hurts both teams. But it hurts GS more because they were in position to win this game last night.

Dray lashes out on a twitter rant at my Nuggets and our fans because he wasn't fortunate enough to beat Jokic and a group of bench players the other night.

He is making over $20 million a year and has three rings. He is the spoiled punk here...

Draymond didn’t even play the other night.

Had he played, GS would have won for sure.

NBA won't do forfeit, but it has nothing to do with fairness or competitive balance. They just won't go with outnthe ticket sales of those games.

I said yes to the forfeit, when they decide to postpone seems arbitrary. You have teams signing players of the streets, and long retired players to get enough players, those losses still count. Why should the nuggets get a free pass. No G-League players left?

Most of his posse are glorified sheep anyway. So, it's not really my job to determine who's a grown man and who isn't.
Who’s in his posse? Just curious to see who the yes men are. Or are you just making things up again?

I think the best way to explain this to aggrieved parties is that a covid protocol game missed is equivalent to an injury. That way it’s not so much an isolated issue of Covid for standard with players having to miss court time.

I want to vote yes but I wouldn’t want to encourage them to be dishonest about it.

Is there a non-partisan testing system?

And you know one of the teams that has to make up at least two games?

That would be my Nuggets, needing to make up games against Brooklyn and now Golden State, two of the best teams in the league.

So, anyone that thinks this situation benefits Denver needs to take off their homer glasses…

Your Nuggets? Calling bullshit on that. Were you a Nuggets fan five years ago? Nope. Just stick to being a built not bought Pacers fan. Because you're not a Denver fan. You just jumping on their bandwagon.

I just wanna know when you became a Warriors fan. This is a new development. Wait a minute, hurricane's full of shit again. Never mind.

Kind of interesting. Even if this was the case, I wouldn't fault the Nuggets for keeping their guys out. Extra rest for guys with nagging injuries and a postponement.

But you are a homer if you think the cancellation benefitted Denver more.
