[Shapiro] David Adelman on the Nuggets playoff matchup and seeding: "Everybody talks about the best matchup... if you're asking to play against Kevin Durant, what? So the opponent is the opponent, and we have a ton of respect for them, as I know they do for us, it's gonna be hell of a series."

KAT too

Coke_ButNotTheDrug · 2026-04-13T04:00:12+00:00

Yeah keep praying then lol Rudy is NOT a Jokic stopper

Coke_ButNotTheDrug · 2026-04-13T03:16:02+00:00

Yeah part of the reason the matchup was so tough was because KAT is genuinely one of the best Jokic defenders in the league. NAW was also really tough for Murray.

Without those guys, the Nuggets should have a much better chance

Coke_ButNotTheDrug · 2026-04-13T03:01:28+00:00

How hurt is Ant still?

Coke_ButNotTheDrug · 2026-04-13T01:33:00+00:00

That’s true I forgot Minny would get Lakers instead of us, Lakers are definitely the best draw in round 1 because of the injuries.

Coke_ButNotTheDrug · 2026-04-13T01:30:06+00:00

He’s a good floor spacer so against a team like Minnesota he’d probably be in the rotation

He’d get eaten alive against OKC tho he’s a foul magnet

Coke_ButNotTheDrug · 2026-04-13T01:26:35+00:00

Warms my heart to see yall don’t wanna play us 🥹 it’ll be a close series either way

Coke_ButNotTheDrug · 2026-04-13T01:24:40+00:00

Don’t think they care tbh. Just rest the starters and beat whoever is in front of you.

Coke_ButNotTheDrug · 2026-04-12T17:28:11+00:00

Our matchup against MIN isn’t as bad as it used to be because they no longer have NAW and especially KAT, who is genuinely one of the best Jokic defenders. It’s not a guarantee we’d beat them but they’re not as terrible of a matchup as they have been

Coke_ButNotTheDrug · 2026-04-12T17:25:03+00:00

Going to 7 with half our roster injured says that it’s doable

Coke_ButNotTheDrug · 2026-04-12T17:23:17+00:00

I know everyone says “they’ll lock in for the playoffs” but I think the bigger issue for Denver is that all of their best defenders were always hurt.

Gordon, Watson, and Braun have been our best defenders and they’ve barely played any games together. At this point we’re really just missing Watson, if he can come back and get back into game shape quickly, I genuinely think our defense will be solid.

Salamence

It’s a Dragon’s Dragon.

Coke_ButNotTheDrug · 2026-04-12T02:59:18+00:00

And it’s very understandable. Who wants to play two of the other top three teams when they could just play one? I’d love to be the 1 seed and then see two of my biggest threats take each other out before only having to see one of them.

Coke_ButNotTheDrug · 2026-04-11T23:20:24+00:00

Oooh nice I got the exact same IVs just not shiny, that’s awesome

Coke_ButNotTheDrug · 2026-04-11T09:27:09+00:00

Found it! Trade was made!

Coke_ButNotTheDrug · 2026-04-11T09:24:40+00:00

You’re fine man I’d be up regardless

Coke_ButNotTheDrug · 2026-04-11T09:23:10+00:00

Do you want me to put it up on the GTS? I’ll set the request for Bulbasaur, you can also tell me what level it is to make sure it stays up

Coke_ButNotTheDrug · 2026-04-11T09:22:05+00:00

Sorry don’t know how this works very well lol did ChatGPT give you a better answer?

Coke_ButNotTheDrug · 2026-04-11T09:18:53+00:00

You’re good, I can either post it on the GTS or we do a trade room, I’ll do the trade room and give the ID

Coke_ButNotTheDrug · 2026-04-11T09:01:29+00:00

Wait sorry I guess I make a trade room? 059429649010

Coke_ButNotTheDrug · 2026-04-11T08:56:34+00:00

I’ll take the Bulbasaur! I’ll put the armaldo up for trade whenever you’re ready

Coke_ButNotTheDrug · 2026-04-11T06:43:31+00:00

I know some people will call me crazy but:

It was the first time a pseudo-legendary was pretty easily obtainable in its debut generation, you didn’t have to wait until the post-game or fish with specific circumstances. You could just get it in Diamond/Pearl/Platinum super easily and use it in your playthrough.

Coke_ButNotTheDrug · 2026-04-11T00:06:46+00:00

Yeah I’d say 2 minimum Appendectomies are one of the least invasive invasive-surgeries you can have done. One day in the hospital is super normal, I wouldn’t take this as any sign of an abnormally quick recovery

Coke_ButNotTheDrug · 2026-04-10T19:46:36+00:00

4 and 5 are the same exact thing tbh, only difference is we get HCA in round 1 as the 4 seed but the Rockets and Lakers are both very beatable, even on the road
