Stephen Curry, the Joker, season opener for the Nuggets. The last team to open their season. Good pass. Pass. Hey, Cam Johnson going to help them. He didn’t have a great night tonight, but I I think he’s going to help them a lot. Sure. Going to help him tonight, though. Horford with a block. He going to help him, too. Look at what a night for Aaron. Oh, right back at you. Oh, put that hit his first seven threes. Jimmy Butler 2925 game and then Jamal Murray. Oh, is that sweet? Yes, it is. Oh, you got to make him the first time. But this guy is just able shoot. Old man is not old man Hawford. He is still getting it done. First half story was Aaron Gordon. Seven out of seven from deep. Look like my boy Rick Fox out there off that double man. And this I mean he tied his careerh high for threes in the game in the first half alone and he had 25 points. 70-61 Denver’s lead going to the third. Come on man. He makes it look Steph Curry just incredible. He makes it look he made it look pretty easy too. Aaron Gordon again for three minutes. Oh goodness. Good tight game. 8379 and Steph contact and floats for a couple again. Oh man. I mean, he’s been doing the same thing with the Celtics and now he’s doing it with the Golden State Warriors. Did it with the Sixers. Sixers. Oh my god. Oh, look at the bounce for Jamal Murray. So, we go to the fourth. All tied up at 94. And it’s that guy again, Aaron Gordon. And look at he he just get off. Only Will Richard. Will Richard pretty played had some pretty good minutes for Golden State. Rookie out of Florida. This guy had a pretty good man. Look at this. Tough shot. That’s great defense, too. Meanwhile, you guys had talked about the size advantage in this game for Get off me, little man. Brandon Pajinsky finding that out. I don’t think I’ve ever switched as much as I was a guard playing. Did he do it again, Shaq? Yes, he did. This is the one the the next one was the one that was impressive. I mean, that was imp. This is the one right here. 120 to 117. Yeah, look how look how deep this is. Jeez, we are tied at 120. What was this? Denver’s got one more chance. Joker. Oh, no. Trey Plato says, “This game’s over.” I didn’t. No, I No, I still think I still think the Nuggets got a better team. We head to overtime. You saw Steph make it a three-point game somehow. A three-point play the oldfashioned way for Gordon. Throw good deep bad pass. Here’s a Jonathan coming. He had 14 and five. Borford games. Jimmy match night night. Oh yeah. Don’t run back on defense. Go on walk. Go walk. 42point night for Steph Curry. What a game. 50point night for Aaron Gordon in the loss. 137 to 131 is your final. Shaq, you were right, man. You know, you was down nine at the half. I mean up nine at the half and you see Golden State’s coming back to win the game. You don’t hear that music, Chuck? Remember this movie? Warriors come out to play. No, I I said it yesterday. When it comes to experience, I like those five. I mean, you know, Kaminga is the youngest guy there, but I like Dre. You know, I like Jimmy. You know, I like Steph. You know, I like Draymond. So, you know, they they came out hot. You know, this guy played great. He had 50 points tonight. Shot very well. But, can he play like that all season? And you know, Golden State, we we I don’t think he’s I don’t think he’s going to play that way all season. It’s going to be record setting. You never know. Yeah, this was a a terrific game. Uh I know we got a lot of BS going on behind the scenes. The last couple nights have been really incredible. Like Wimby last night was incredible. We didn’t even get a chance to talk about it all day. BJ is comb my Sixers are up there. Um but tonight we had two really good games. Somehow this uh this got by us without any of us noticing it. Uh as Tizzle puts on X. Shout out David Adelan for being the first coach ever featured on an inside the NBA box store. I actually saw that earlier. See? No, I saw that earlier actually. No, you did not. Yes, I did see that. You would have brought it up. See, it there was no reason to bring it up. We were talking about the Warriors. We were just We were just helping Shaq out with Yeah, with the whole David ear. You got to be here all night to understand. Yeah, exactly. I know who Steve Curry is though. How about that? Yeah, you sure do. Yeah. Oklahoma City in Indiana. Rematch of last year’s NBA final. And Oklahoma City coming off a double overtime win over Houston in their opener and just doing SGA things there. Of course, Indiana without Tyrese Hallebertton. Miles Turner this season. Yeah. Uh what’s the little guard name? TJ McConnell. Yeah, he’s out with a hammy. Yeah, but 21 in the first half for SGA. Yeah, but they’re still going to play hard despite not having those guys. Oh, they got they got a lot of grit, Jack. That’s for sure. Good. Oh my goodness. That’s a charge. Ain’t no charge. Stop. Just run over people. Stop flopping. Play some defense. Oh, stop running over people. Play some D. What’d you stand there for anyway? Try and block a shot or something. Great ball moving. And uh Ton Peter, the rookie, knocks down the three. Part of a 12-2 run. Aaron Wiggins. Tell you what, boy. OKC just plug and play. Yeah. And how about this guy AJ Mitchell? What a game he Preston know what he doing. He get all his draft picks can play. Chad Hol got the lob from Isaiah Hartenstein. Oh, good at him. And Siaka 32 and 15. Pascal Seakum is the real deal. Oklahoma City up three after three. And AJ Mitchell had 26. AJ off of the OKC bench. Benick Mattherin had 36 and 11 for Indiana. About time KJ could play. His name JJ. Oh, Matherine driving again and hitting that tough floater. Yeah, with Tyres. has got the three-point lead. We going to get a lot more attention for Tyrese. SGAA 110 109 go alone too. I’m going to let you know that. Oh, listen. Listen up. Start claiming on our W2. He is they’re down Indiana down one and can’t get anything to fall there. But after an SGA missed free throw, Seakum back. Oh, and that’s good defense. We are tied at 113 with 6 and 12 seconds. Pass his ball. Pass his ball. Shane, he should have gave that one up. Yeah, he should have gave it up for George. Yeah, you got to trust him. So, let’s go to overtime. I don’t care what he is from three. I think he they said one for 12 at that point. He he might have been two for 13. Oh, SGA untouched to the rim. Man, this dude right he this dude makes some tough shots. Yeah, I mean Lou Dort all over him and he makes it. Tied at 122. SGA and OKC’s got the lead again. Get off me. Benedict Matherin did that. Tied at 124. Clock winding down and no foul. Yeah, he did. What do you say we go to double overtime? Second straight game. Nobody’s ever done that to start a season. Play two overtime. Two double overtime games. There’s SGA and that’s Matherine fouling out 147 126 to up top. Indiana got the lead back but here comes Aaron Wiggins the man who saved basketball knocks it down SGA and 55 on the night for Alexander. This was a steal. The ref blew this call. Oh yeah. Hey, isn’t it funny that they had one of those the timeout called by Durant the other night that wasn’t recognized and then they did recognize this one and and they give all of a sudden they going to give you not even calling timeout. Yeah, he is. He’s got the rep right there. But he already got the ball. The ball’s in. Ball’s in. The ball’s in. I mean, come Rick Rick, you have the right terrible man. That’s right. Tell them. Tell them. I mean, but you were down. So, it would have been down four, but you had a fighter’s chance. Yep. 141 to 135. How about that? So, they win this one by six, won their opener by one last year in uh Oklahoma City’s championship year. They won 68 games in the regular season. The average margin in those wins was 17. They win by six and they win by one. And they are the first team to go 2 and 0. I tell you what, man. They are the prohibitive favorite. They’re going to be tough to beat. They’re not even healthy right now. Hey, let’s hear from Katie George with this. Prohibitive. Okay. Okay. Spell it. That’s not the word. Shay, is this going to become a thing? You guys going to double overtime over and over again? Um, if it ends in wins, we’ll take it. That’s what I would say. But shout out to the guys tonight, man. I got cold in the fourth. Missed a couple free throws, couple easy ones. AJ Wigs, chat hard, Lou with his defensive pressure, uh, carried the load. Um, and I was able to deliver when it was time, but shout out to the guys tonight. They fought hard. Um, we got a W. Speaking of delivering when it’s time, you had a career-high 55 points. Where do you go mentally late in games to be so clutch? I just don’t get discouraged by whatever’s going on in the game. Trust my work and try to get the things that I’m comfortable getting to. And that’s two games in a row. I got enough done to get a W.

Honestly, I’m seriously concerned. Why are they praising a team? That is the defending champs and they’ve been taken to overtime both of their first two games by teams everybody wants to write off like us the Pacers I don’t understand.
Horfort is their new Andrew boget
yo track id @ 03:57?? that is a fire beat.
70s kids built their own backboard for basketball. Don't buy China artificial intelligence of Stephen CURRY
i don't wanna be a hater but 26 free throws? come on man
Everyone praising ESPN as if they weren’t handed a free golden ticket
Old man horford 😂🔥🔥💪 -Shaq
These games so fixed.
No player has ever been guarded like how Steph gets guarded. 😮
I don’t know if there’s a shot Steph can’t make
26 free throws
Gordon = Nasty
We have never seen anything like Curry -Lebron – Durant – or Wemby as far ad skills at thier sizes 🎉🎉🎉
Curry is so fun to watch, even as a Nuggets fan. But he did single handily bail them out. The Nuggets would win in 6 if healthy because Curry can’t play like that consistently every night
Then: Be Like Mike
Now: Be Like Steph
Number 10 on the nuggets get cut
Nba is getting interesting
26 free throws is a horrible game to sit and watch 🫠 Curry, on the hand, is absolute energy, always electric, must-see tv without a million stops for FT’s
as Nuggets fan i give it up to Curry ! Hell of a game!
26 Free Throws. Absolutely disgusting refereeing.
Wilt has all the records lol what a legend
If it takes 10 3s from one player to have them on the ropes then the warriors gonna be a threat all season.
Jokic walking back on defense on the last play is like a resignation for a loss.
Chocker
Curry is just too much fun to watch man
SGA won't pass the ball, Kenny… He's foul baiting…
Aaron Gordon's "game of his life" is just another Curry W.
It’s the work he put in
Shaq is a hater of the Knicks just got prime dirk Nash Blake Griffin and u.d. much better than u guys much smarter they next
Can the “old crew” keep it up all season? No.😢 but when they win, it’s going to be fun.
probably finish seventh like last year?
26 freethrow is wild wild 😂
Holdup – I thought chuck was retiring??
Thank you #30
Chuck on Ozempic? 🤷♂🤣🤣🤣🤣
Charles lost wight 😢
The free throw merchant is back 😂😂😂
Great game. What an advert for the sport
Steph Curry is the Goat of this Generation
Warriors have a good line up
Yay awesome, Riley’s Papa; that’s Steph
26 free throws………………
Another shai zesty Classic 9:50 😅
26 Free throws..c'mon.
I’m waiting for Chuck to start saying some crazy stuff
Stopped caring about NBA a long time ago.
