No way is Embiid deserving of MVP award… ducking an opponents, zzz
This was a very good game sheeshhh I wish embiid was playing though
Denver is playing beautiful basketball. Like Lakers 35 years ago with Magic
We couldn't get enough energy to stop outscoring the Nuggets starters and the defense of the Nuggets is playing really good than the 76ers! 76ers didn't have a good defense identity to step up on double team and more productions.
I was much looking forward to seeing the big guys duke it out, but the fact we made it close without him makes feel confident in the rest of the team.
Bro I'm crying this man from the Phillies wearing a light colored hoodie almost stood up remembering what team he was on 7:51
lettin jokic get away with offensive fouls and throwing elbows and shoulders i see….
watch the minnesota timberwolves! they are nasty and spiraling upward!
mvp joker
Jokic being the MVP while Embiid is the most expensive cheerleader.
Green was out of bounds with 13 seconds left. How was the challenge unsuccessful loool NBA is rigged!
🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀
Good Job Denver! 🏀
no embiid no harden and they still almost lost 😂😂🤣🤣
Nuggets roster TBH is like a mini all star…
Troel Embiid
This is another game we couldnt stop aaron gordan smh..this is what scares me in the playoffs teams with size n speed..cus embiid is really the only guy who will NOT let u score..also im so sick of tobias jesus already get rid of his gigantic contract smh
Axie doing great 🤣
I like to see the sportsmanship with Murray helping maxi up.
PJ Tucker put up the same statline as Embiid!
I miss compazzo
Paul Reed Is better than Tobias
76er had their two best player out ,and only lost by five, what do that tell you, the 76er are the better team
Frankly, I'm looking forward to when the schedule for 2023-2024 is set, so we can see when Embiid will sit against Denver next year.
Nuggets barely won while embid an harden is out
Embiid needs to stop losing steam and getting hurt during playoff time
so Embiid doesn't wanna play in Denver to lose his chance as mvp huh..
Imagine being a mvp "favorite" and not being on the thumbnail of a game against the guys team that is neck and neck with you for mvp and he doesnt even play.
Constant palming of the ball, never called. Why not be honest, NBA, and admit that the rule has been changed? And a chick announcer, too? Who needs you?
No competition on MVP this year. It should go to Joker. 3 in a row, first foreign born player to do this. Just adding to his records! It is a privilege to be a fan and see this happen in front of our eyes.
Thank You Nuggets Organization, for putting an absolutely great product for us to watch and witness!
"Tenacion"
Nuggz didn't "choke" here. Malone should've put our bench in when Doc did. Starters looked like they didn't understand why they were still in the game up 20 halfway through the 4th. Coach has been great this year but not going to the bench this game is a head scratcher for me…
If Embiid was in this game it would have been a different story..
Game was a dunk fest for the nuggets – so hype
Too many ads!
We already clinched wouldn’t be mad if Doc rest Harden and Embiid till da playoffs fuck da rest of dese regular season games 🤷🏾♂️
maxey owns jokic
Time to get rid of Harris and upgrade. He has not produced.
Embiid 🦆🦆🦆
Was there last night
jeff green out of bounds 4th quarter @ 15 sec remaining
The Nuggets are playing strong right now. Need that going into the playoffs.
The 76ers had a string of 7 straight layup misses in the second period. How do professionals miss 7 straight layups and expect to win games?
Denver Nuggets gonna be cooked bbq chicken come playoffs. To much fire power in the west for them to handle and I’m not backing a team that’s never been to an nba finals😂😂
Maxey vs. nuggets
The media is really pushing Joel for MVP. Jokic on the other hand makes everything look so effortless and simple without the unnecessary banter like Joel, nothing flashy and that's what those guys want.
Tobias harris…
Embiid is clearly better but you dodging this game is sus
JE is a bum. He totally dodged this matchup with NJ. Just give NJ the mvp and call it a day.
Definitely Jokic has my vote for MVP. He shows up to his away matchups and dominates them at home.
