Re: NBA season 2023/24 - Play Offs!

What's scary, is that the Nuggets haven't even hit top gear yet. They're such a well balanced team. It's early days, but I can see them going all the way. On a slightly different subject, Jamal Murray should have been an All Star this season. I would have chosen Murray ahead of Booker. Nah Murray w...
