- The Denver Nuggets lost to the Minnesota Timberwolves after leading by 15 at the half. Nuggets HC Michael Malone said that the “guys are gassed, they’re dead tired.” Emmanuel Acho, Joy Taylor, James Jones, and LeSean McCoy ask if it’s fair for the Nuggets to blame fatigue for the loss.

Shady sounds dumb

weirdos on TH-cam threads actually do....GREAT JOB!
lol she fine but she has no game on sports but she fine keep up the good work honey 🍯
The coach needs to accept responsibility for the loss, they were not fatigued because they played extra games last year or played more this year. They were fatigued because he played them the whole game. No players should ever play more than 36 minutes. That’s why you have a bench. Everybody in the NBA can play. Play your darn bench coach !!!! quit making excuses for your bad decisions
I didn't hear any of these excuses when lebron went to 8 straight finals
Playing against no one
his excuses were not just with words but also actions. his FAKE AF cast after losing finals, his required surgery (that he never got) last year, etc..
Lebron couldn’t use that excuse because his team always turn over the roster that keep fresh guys on the team
@@jasonjackson4005 2011: Mavs with HOFer Dirk, J Kidd, and Shawn Marion.
2012: baby thunder with future MVP's james Harden, Kevin Durant, and Russ Westbrook
2013: spurs with HOFer Timmy Duncan, Parker, and Ginobili, with Kawhi
2014: same as 2013
2015: Warriors with HOFer Steph, Klay Thompson, draymond
2016: same as 2015
2017: same as 2015 but with top 15-20 all time player Kevin Durant
2018: Same as year before
But yeah, playing against no one lol
@@frankvizcarra5948You know those Lebron haters don’t pay attention to facts.
Fatigue is working 50 hour weeks for minimal wage pay.
LMFAOOO
Preach
EVERYDAY MAN FEELS WHAT YOU'RE SAYING. THE PRIVILEGE HAVE NO CLUE. . BUT PREACH JUST THE SAME MY BROTHER.
MY THOUGHTS AND FEELINGS AND SENTIMENTS EXACTLY 💯
anything under $20 a hour these days
That's mental fatigue. Pro athletes put their body through more physical fatigue than the average joe
LeBron and Curry made it look easy, talkin bout fatigue 😂
What MJ, Kobe , Bron and curry were doing going back to the finals is not normal and let’s your appreciate what they doing
LeBron always had another top 5 player on his team. Steph had the second greatest shooter. Jordan was a wing and had one of the greatest defenders as another wing. Kobe had shaq and then gasol. The most skilled big man in a 5 year stretch. Joker has no one near those levels on his squad.
@@Chasingdreams008 I agree
And absolutely NOBODY coming off the bench. If the starters aren't having a good night it's already over. There is no B squad in Denver to save the day.
@DoremonUCR Cut it out dude
For them to sit here and say they lost after being up 20 points because of fatigue is insane
So they lost a close game in game 1 - were they tired ? The Knicks are tired lol 😂 And they still thought they could win
Actually that was just Joy saying that! Lol
In Denver too out of all the places
Its hard going back to back.
I mean everyone looked at jokic……bro was tired. Naz rudy kat all gettin thrown at jokic.jimmy butler wasn’t tired in his 1st finals vs the lakers after having a whole covid break. Being tired cool but prob shouldn’t be said cuz now teams know jokic can get tired
Acho: "Jamal Murray left everything out on the court" and I'm over here like "whoa, what did he throw THIS time?"
That was exactly what I was thinking 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Lmaooo
You win 😅😅😅
his girl a throat goat
😂😂😂
Media always wants to blame someone instead of giving the winning team credit lmao
People enjoy negativity. Look you’re commenting on it because of negativity
@@shredacademy6170yup
If there is blame to be placed on the Nuggets, it's the total lack of scoring by the Nuggets bench. While the Wolves had almost everyone that played scoring double digits. You don't win with only 2 players doing almost all the scoring.
Not even the bench. MPJ and Gordon are long time starters on that team. They were no shows.
I'm glad the nuggets lose I can't stand that trash team
I hate to be this guy but…if Lebron would have said this at any point in those years he was going to the finals…y’all would have fried him. Fatigue was a terrible excuse and a weak cop out.
LeBron blames fake injuries and role players. Oh, I forgot the coaches.
Like everyone blaming the Nuggets role players and coach Malone right now? Lmao shut up clown
LeBron went to the Finals eight straight times all the while playing far more minutes in both the regular season and post season. He never had fatigue as an excuse. Get a clue.
@Al-Rudigor that's cap. Bron hasn't come out and blamed the coaches nor his role players. It's the media who blames them or say that LeBron behind the scenes is somehow throwing the role players or coaches under the bus. Darvin Ham was thrown under the bus publicly by AD against the Nuggets but the narrative will still be Bron did that
Not 1, not 2, not 3.....
I’m with Shady and James on this we can not give a team with the “best player on the planet” and 3x MVP an excuse like this
Mike Malone talking about fatigue but then front running on a guy that went to 8 straight finals is 😂nasty work -so they don’t deserve to be considered elite teams because LeBron Steph, Kobe Mike Duncan magic Isaiah Dream this thing is difficult Malone stop the Cap 🧢
Joys explanation got me fatigued 😕
Cause sometimes she does not make a LICK of sense and then wants do double and triple down on not making a LICK of sense
For real sometime her takes are so personal and asinine! And anytime a team is going through a rough period, they are a "dis functional" organization.
😂😂😂
Too much estrogen on the set.
Jones & Shady was cookin
@@captainsolo1719 😂😂😂
Why is it when shady corrects them they listen but when James jones disagrees with them they fight back 🤦♂️ my man James jones always getting that disrespect
You peep that joy agrees with shady every time ?😂😂😂
Because they value shady more than James
That’s not all the time
Because Acho is obsessed w Shady
Acho is the most annoying one, he never thinks he is wrong and always thinks he is correct. Shady gives it from the heart, Joy is level headed. James Jones? He can go, boring and gets pissy
13 more games LAST YEAR. They still got 4 months off wtf 😂
Like did you hear LeBron say oh I’m tired after losing in the 2017 and 2018 NBA Finals like these fatigue excuses for the Nuggets is ridiculous.
I did see him go to the podium with hard cast on his wrist
@@user-lt1fx2he5snot the same thing being banged up and using an excuse to differnt things Lebron played all his playoff games and mins
No they said the loss didn’t count for Lebron because the Warriors had 1 more HoF player than Cavs did.
It’s just basketball lebron James after losing/ after winning let’s go bro it’s not just basketball it’s life you ain’t got to ride lebron
@@derrickmason7457And he would still blame everybody else and I’m not talking about fatigue.
Minnesota made em tired.
AG is the back up big and he’s a whole starter, Murray gotta worry about ant Jaden, jokic gotta worry about gobert kat Reid. Hopefully wolves get a ring it’ll make for a good story
@@jayblack2075Fr I know we're excited as we should be but getting the championship is more important
@@jayblack2075get a better team
Get that fatigue BS TFOH!!! 😂
😂😂😂
Can’t wait to come to this this comment when the Timberwolves go to Cancun next series
@@garymarrow803dont really matter coz they wont be making excuses that they are fatigued. On top of all that, they not deffending champs.nuggets should know better since they did this last year.duh
Bron been in the playoffs and finals for a 100 years straight including the Olympics and they still expect him to win so miss me with the excuses.
A 39 year old with a million minutes can't be tired but a guy in his prime and only 1 long playoff run has every right I guess lol
Nobody's trying to stop LeBron like they are Jokic it's hilarious that you think they're comparable. 😆
"No one trying to stop LeBron like Jokic" LOL 💀😂 tell me you barely began watching basketball in 2019 without telling me
@@Travis89-ob5tt you say you don’t know who Bron is huh 😅. Bron is literally the reason Boston Big 3 happened and playing against stacked laker teams and piston and spurs teams in his early prime. Honestly teams stole the Blueprint from their bubble Championship as well running with Bigger lineups 🤷🏽
@@LouiHimDuncan going 15 years to mid 20's LeBron. 🤣👍
Last thing I wanna hear as an excuse from or for professional athletes is being tired... point blank
Especially not blaming playing something that happened a year ago for why they are tired now. That is the lamest excuse I ever heard. The Nuggets just clamped up in the second half and that was the game.
They were the ones who were at home and used to playing in the mile high city. This doesn’t make any sense to me. I can’t believe they trying to make this excuse.
Exactly it’s literally your job to be in shape
The defending champs lost Game 1 at home.
They then got annihilated in Game 2 at home.
They were up 3-2.
They lost Game 6 by FORTY FIVE POINTS.
In Game 7, the other team’s 22 YEAR OLD best player was 6-24 and they were up 20 in the 2nd half.
And they lost. At home.
You forgot to mention Adam silver ignored suspending Murray game 3 so the series can goto 7
“We talking bout fatigue, y’all boys got one championship” 😂😂😂😂
The T wolves had that dawg in them. Pure will and hunger. Bringing down all the offensive boards. Murray cooled off and started with the turnovers. Mpj, Gordon. Kcp. No showed. The better and deeper team won.
It’s hard when your two best players are taking 50 shots between the two of them.
Fatigue is a stupid excuse. If that were the case then you must also acknowledge that the opposing team that just beat you also played 7 games, while beating you in your hometown with the altitude against them.
Fatigue doesn't carry over seasons.. you could say MN wore them down with their athleticism/physicality
got a whole off season to relax and recover and they talking about it like it has an effect on the following season lmfao. Barring injury, if your body can't recover in 3 months, you're in the wrong profession
James is correct
They Told Me Bron can’t be fatigued at age 39 Its go time so I don’t wanna Hear Nothing about being fatigued!!! FOH With That
Y’all princess lebron lovers are still crying that the choke artist got sent home twice by the nuggets?
😂😂😂
@@Heatpad.Murray1They must have forgotten that Lebron doesn’t take blame for anything
@@Heatpad.Murray1 nah keep that same energy!! We not allowing the same reason yall wouldn’t allow!! Fight thru it or go home he chose to go home! 😂😂😂
Denver has an inherent advantage of playing/living in a higher altitude. They shouldn’t be as tired as the T. Wolves
Last year EVERYONE said the Nuggets had the best constructed roster in the association, now all of a sudden the have all these roster flaws? EXCUSES FOR JOKIC.
They lost two important bench pieces and the guys this year didn't step up.
Last year the Nuggets bench and rost played well in the playoffs, this year when it mattered some of their key role players went limp on the biggest stages. If you can't understand that opinions can change based on how that roster plays then the problem is your lack of understanding and mental comprehension.
They didnt brought everyone back. Their bench is questionable this year
lol what you don't realize is that those who said the Nuggets had the best constructed roster said that to DISCREDIT Jokic. He won a chip without a single all star teammate, Suns were favored to win, they lost. Lakers were favored to win, they lost, but when Jokic won the chip, all of a sudden the Nuggets had the best roster. FOH.
35 and 20 in that game 7. It's Gordon and MPJ who were no shows the last 2 games.
Lakers had a 20 point lead on the Nuggets and lost was that fatigue for the Lakers?🤔
Yes. Lakers are older and we could see in those games that they were tired. AD hunched over, Bron not attacking as much later in games
Imagine blaming being tired because you worked out super hard for a couple months a year ago... Physical fatigue argument is such a cop out. If you wanna say emotional fatigue sure but then they gotta accept they were weak minded...
Exactly!! Weak minded, no dog, no press! Not one of them showed tenacity like Jordan, or Kobe, or Iverson!!!
@@deborahroberts8576Or Lebron, 8 consecutive Finals, 9 in 10 years, even Boston coach in 2018 was impressed
Joy said she doesn't "have to live her life based on what Mike Malone said" but is doubling down and the fatigue statement despite the nuggests having a great coach a three time MVP and more playoff experience than the team that is led by a 22 ywars who haven't been to the WCFs in 20 years, great stuff
Total BS. Ant man played nearly all games last year, then in the world play offs in the summer. Then nearly every game in this season and all the playoff games.
.... I wouldn't use a 22 year old as an example...lol but ya thier fatigue excuse is pathetic
Fatigue? Oh lord that’s ridiculous, everyone is fatigued. Especially the teams not as used to playing in Denver altitude
Josh slayer playsb45 a night and he’s not even saying fatigue
Allen Iverson "We Talkin Bout FATIGUE"
I thought the Mile High altitude was a definite advantage. Theoretically you should be more physically conditioned then others. Being tired should be your Strength 💪🏿 not weakness!
No way they’re making an excuse for the nuggets. That’s sad
If fatigue is an issue how were past NBA teams win back to back championships
Joy doing her usual defending
She looks dumb as a rock in this segment
Joy , is the most reasonable, logical and informative among the rest of these clowns on the panel!!
She doing horrible today her takes today are bad
Her takes are usually bad, and seem personal. How long before she calls this team "dis functional" lol
@@anthonyholley2796this coming from a career clown like u makes sense. I think you focus on delivery than content. Just shows how slow u are. What reasonable take did Joy make. You just dumb
Broooooo they making excuses for losing now wow! 🤯
Never heard this excuse for LeBron. Dude went to 8 straight championships.
Yea LeBron never get to have fatigue as an excuse when he is actually the one with the most reason to lol, with all those mileage in the playoffs and he usually play the most minutes out of all active players each season
I lost respect for Acho and Joy on this one...fatigue is giving the nuggets a pass.
Only fatigue tean is new to and they didn’t even talk about itb
The Nuggets lost and Jokic lost shut up, STOP WITH THESE EXCUSES
Jokic didn’t come out bitching and moaning about fatigue, he gave the wolves credit. He’s the only one that didn’t cry fatigue, Malone wasn’t crying fatigue when he wore his championship shirt to the pre game presser.
This is an excuse all of the guys during this postseason played well over 40 minutes so we are not going to do that.
It's true that the big men for the Wolves were fresher.
If nuggets was tired now what about New York. Josh hart played 47 mins a night
Shady is correct. Fatigue while making millions of dollars? What about the laborers digging the ditches all year for minimum wages?
Man imagine if Bron had lost game 7 after 20 point lead and using the tired defense 😂
He would get ANIHHILATED
Very disappointed in Joy on this one. The Nuggets have not played a quarter of what some teams have played in terms of back to back playoff runs to be claiming fatigue as an excuse that we should let slide.
Anybody here ever been so tired that it carried over to the next year?
Unless it is late in December, I'm with you
The whole fatigue thing goes out the window when the wolves also played the same 7 games the nuggets played. Just excuses
Brunson and hart played 44 every game and they didn’t even say they were tired
Joy trippin standing on business like that 😂😂
Stop it ancho , shady played zero minutes in his super bowls lmao . Those were coat tail chips . Hahaha
I’m a born and raised Chiefs fan and I definitely get tired of him claiming them superbowls lol
TEAM WIN! don't hate borderline HOF...u??
@@PRODIGY-AND-HAVOC yea he was the cheerleader of the team, his pompoms were appreciated 😂
They chocked!! It’s that Simple!!
The other team beat them
The fatigue factor was the lack of depth and bad coaching, getting players roated in and out for rest.
He was so tired he stood up the whole fourth quarter in game six on some George Foreman ish huh 😂
if they won the Denver Nugget, they would have the energy to jump up and down celebrate and go out
Gobert was dialed in, making free throws, demanding the ball and making shots when he had it, but Edwards passed up giving him the ball when he was wide opened, acting as if he had to take the shot when his shots were not falling. Jordan on his worst days scored 22.
Nuggets only team allowed to make excuses when they lose. 1 title dynasty 😂😂😂
Shady took them to school on this one
When you're cussing out a reporter for asking why you blew a 20 pt lead in a game 7 then you're making excuses. Also like James said, they got 1 ring. They aren't a team that's won multiple chips who could reasonably use fatigue as an excuse.
I remember when lebron was actually fatigue from tryna beat the KD Steph n Klay warriors by himself and whenhe lost and said he was fatigued the sport media DESTROYED HIM!!! KEEP THAT SAME ENERGY U LAMES
So it wasn’t fatigue when they blew out the twolves in game 4 and was up by 20 in the 3rd quarter of game 7, they choked, period GTFOH
Acho shut up they played all the more games. And they won a chip
34/19/7 says Joker was REEEAL tired…they were outmatched, the bench scoring 5 points was more responsible than fatigue
No one made these excuses for the Lakers and Heat in 2021 after they had the shortest offseason in American professional sports history. They had like 72 days off before the next season started after playing in the 2020 finals and they played a compressed season with multiple back to backs and 3 games in 4 nights.
It's a difference from looking fatigued and looking defeated, the look of defeat is what the Nuggets showed not fatigue
Joy mad AF LOL
F A T I G U E ? ? ?
MF PLEASE 😂🤡
Meanwhile the Celtics played the same amount of games as Denver since last year and they're still in the playoffs. That's a bunch of BS.
Can't wait to see the if wolves lose and see Acho and Joy say " Well they were fatigue because the mavs didn't play in they playoffs last year"
Talking about fatigue in the 2nd round is crazy. Denver should be one of if not the best conditioned team due to the altitude.
I’m calling out tomorrow because I fatigued from something I did last year …. Don’t @ me
😂
I watched a man go to 8 straight finals with 2 different teams. I ain’t tryna hear fatigue
It tells you how Elite Kobe and Shaq were as they won 3 in a Row
Shady never took a snap in hus second superbly appearance
The wolves are a young,hungry teeam with no pressure to win it all. That is a dangerous team
Fatigue? Acting like ant didn't play for the US in fiba in the summer
Fatigue is a part of the game. When Kobe was fatigued he knew what to do, he adapted to find a way to win, to practice shots when fatigued to know what to go to. Curry was fatigued, Lebron was fatigued. Teams literally try to wear other players down, doubling them, literally having a sub in just to foul a star to get them fatigued! To go on a championship run you have to be ready for that. You have to find a way to win close, physical games. Timberwolves wore them out, Timberwolves were the better team.
Let me break this down for you guys… in the Last Dance MJ..
made sure there were no excuses.. including fatigue!!
Is this what we doing now 😢😂they were tired .
Saying someone is fatigue from a season ago is a crazy take
James Jones is literally the only person who makes sense up there
JOKIC IS NOT WHO Y’ALL THOUGHT HE WAS, LET HIM WAIT HIS TURN AND STOP TRYING TO HAVE HIM SKIP THE LINE.
What are you talking about?? The man play basically 47 minutes straight last night
What's his average playoff stats line as a center?
Now compare that to Kareem, Hakeem and Shaq
The defending champs lost Game 1 at home.
They then got annihilated in Game 2 at home.
They were up 3-2.
They lost Game 6 by FORTY FIVE POINTS.
In Game 7, the other team’s 22 YEAR OLD best player was 6-24 and they were up 20 in the 2nd half.
And they lost. At home.
JOKIC IS NOT WHO Y’ALL THINK HE IS
Luka is though. He's about to toast The wolves.
Context is important, while I agree fatigue is a cop-out this comment is a face value statement without any real analysis.
Gassed? I never heard LeBron and Steph with that excuse
So when the Cavs met the Warriors in 15,16,17,and 18 that’s 4 years straight, was they tired? They never said it 😂
Fatigue is part of coaching . But he doesn’t wanna admit
I love to hear the excuses lmao
I’m shook Joy actually agreed with Acho’s BS smh
I will be looking at joy and aucho sideways, you can’t say fatigue is a solid explanation. Watching the game you can see defense and role players were the factor
They lost. Blaming fatigue is an easy out. That’s why going back to back is very hard. They were the hunted and couldn’t handle the pressure. The Bulls in the 90s, Lakers in the 2000s, Lakers in the 2010s, Lebron 8 straight, GS 5 straight. We need to give these teams more credit. It’s not easy making these long runs. They are a good team. They will probably be back next year.
What happened to the Knicks was fatigue...NOT the Nuggets!!!
lol so last year the Lakers faced Nuggets in CF and lost everyone said they looked gassed and a better team shouldn’t be gassed yet. Y’all were talking Jokic top 10 higher, dynasty talk, then they lose in 2nd round and suddenly “fatigue” is an issue. What a joke.
Maybe Nuggets had an easy path last year with little adversity. Jokic and Nuggets have never won a playoff series against a team that had 50+ wins in regular season. They are 0-5. It’s not fatigue, they are front runners…
The Nuggets were up 20 at one point Jokic and them could’ve definitely gotten a breather. I don’t wanna hear anything about fatigue.
Trynna say it was fatigue from a year ago is crazy 🤣
This had nothing to do with fatigue. That point is useless to make.
The amount of backlash Steph , Giannis, Lebron would've received if this was them, don't let Jokic off the hook
Lebron at 39 isn't allowed to be tired
Lmaooooo. How does Joy follow up Acho’s horrible explanation, with an even more horrible explanation. Fatigue form extra games a year ago????😂😂😂
These debates are getting more ridiculous. They must be tired 😂
No it's not fatigue. The Nuggets got beat at home in this series 3x. The Wolves defense won this series and beat the Nuggets, plain and simple. Fatigue is a lame excuse to even say, especially for the defending champions who only went to the finals and won the chip once.
Fatigue is not a real excuse. I don't think you can use games last season and connect that to being tired in a new season after an off-season has passed. That logic doesn't make sense for a pro athlete.
Fatigued because the Wolves played them really hard - that's an explanation. Fatigued because last year, they had a longer season than the Wolves - that's an excuse.
Please stop the game was in Denver and you say they was fatigue and the T.Wolves was not stop.
