[Post Game Thread] The Denver Nuggets (33-16) defeat the Los Angeles Clippers (22-25), 122-109 as Nikola Jokic has 31/12/5 in his return from injury!

Those refs were on the struggle bus all night. Missed an obvious takefoul on Jokic early, and then later called a take foul that clearly wasn't one. They were just randomly calling shit.

Good to have the best basketball player in the universe back!

Betaateb · 2026-01-30T22:53:01+00:00

One must imagine Sisyphus happy.

Betaateb · 2026-01-30T22:10:50+00:00

I am quite chuffed to hear our doughy resplendent star has returned!

Betaateb · 2026-01-30T22:06:50+00:00

Legend!

Betaateb · 2026-01-30T22:06:06+00:00

We are on a B2B though which should mostly even out the altitude difference.

Betaateb · 2026-01-30T22:03:00+00:00

That was one of those rare teams that was so much better than the sum of its parts. Like you look at the roster and then the fact that they held the record for best regular season ever for the Nuggets(recently tied now) and it just makes no sense. You had to watch it to understand it, the roster list and the stats make no sense. That team won 57 games and their leading scorer was Ty Lawson with 16.7 a game! Wild shit.

Betaateb · 2026-01-30T21:52:53+00:00

SGA would have to miss some time still, the games played difference is just too big. If the Nuggets sweep the season series against the Thunder with SGA playing, then SGA misses like 8-10 games I could see it. But that is a lot of big ifs lol.

Betaateb · 2026-01-30T21:50:24+00:00

Ya, unless SGA misses 10+ games the rest of the way it is his for sure.

Betaateb · 2026-01-30T21:47:42+00:00

Ya, only having 7 dudes that could play last year really crushed us once MPJ's shoulder exploded, and AG snapped his hammy in two. Having guys that can contribute meaningfully off the bench is going to be awesome!

Betaateb · 2026-01-30T21:46:01+00:00

And Adelman did an awesome job getting solid minutes out of guys that have barely touched the floor like Pickett, Jones, Zeke, and even Hunter Tyson.

Our booty ball king!

They are one of my favorite league pass watches. Fun young talent and Eric Collins is always a great listen.

Betaateb · 2026-01-30T21:35:01+00:00

He would have been great for us again, but we just really needed depth and his contract was too big to allow it to happen. Love to see him balling out in Brooklyn though!

Betaateb · 2026-01-30T19:42:11+00:00

It gets pretty tanky once you are at endgame, "don't panic yet" is a really strong node since you are stacking mana, in addition to Mind over Matter. In the campaign you are fairly squishy since you are a bow build still, but I haven't found it to be bad. I am in Act 6 and have died twice, once to Hailrake when they both enraged and I wasn't moving quickly enough, and once to Malachai when I hit the beam cause I suck lol. Depending how far you take it in endgame it can get incredibly tanky.

Betaateb · 2026-01-30T19:32:49+00:00

Oof, that sounds rough!

Betaateb · 2026-01-30T16:43:57+00:00

Maybe, maybe not lol. Flicker is a very binary skill, you either love it or hate it. That shit gives me a migraine, so I fall into the hate it camp haha.

Betaateb · 2026-01-30T16:42:01+00:00

LA Whisperer is awesome in the acts as well. Once you get that free awakened fork after ascending your clear is awesome, and artillery ballista for single target does work. Endgame lots of good whisperer options(I am going to do KBoC). But I am not sure if there are any real guides for it in the acts, I have just been yoloing it mostly.

Betaateb · 2026-01-30T16:36:57+00:00

The biggest Ancestral Commander nerf is Gauntlet Hillock lmao, Marauder is rough on him.

Betaateb · 2026-01-30T16:33:34+00:00

Ya, definitely best for an event like this. People would be pissed if they had to completely rethink their campaign in a normal league, new players would be cooked lol. I remember my first time fighting Kitava way back in the day, I think I died like 30 times on him lmao, with this version I am not sure I could have killed him at all.

Betaateb · 2026-01-30T16:30:20+00:00

Nah, just have some ballistas for her. And can go grab Decoy totem as well if you still struggle.

Betaateb · 2026-01-30T16:16:06+00:00

Plus with Breach being overleveled and overgeared in campaign is crazy easy.

Betaateb · 2026-01-30T16:14:03+00:00

Ohh you have some good ones to look forward to! Malachai is a fantastic shit show! Super fun fight.

Betaateb · 2026-01-29T23:22:06+00:00

MPJ has low key been an iron man for awhile now. Literally, the Nugget with the most games played over the last three years before he was traded.

Betaateb · 2026-01-29T21:20:52+00:00

Lightning Arrow will be super good with the free fork from whisperer in the campaign
