Jeff Green Shows Veteran Leadership to Nuggets While Mic'd Up

[@Urbana72]

Uncle Jeff is perfect to play this role. Denver should keep him for a couple of more years.

[@ChuckwaldMartin]

Ugh I hope this his last year in the Nuggets rotation, he's been good this series but was exposed a bit in all the other series. I'd like him more as a bench mentor similar to what Deandre Jordan has done this year, they need a proper back up C for the regular season next year though

[@kowaikokoro]

Unc jeff 😂 nah thats wild but he an great dude

[@predragnicic7138]

Welcome to Partizan uncle

[@ChuckHickl]

this skillset is so underrated and I am just glad that AG looks like he is listening. MPJ needs to get his shit together because he is morphing into AD with his inconsistencies. I can deal with a consistent player with a low ceiling if he has a defined skillset I can use situationally but to add so much in one game and almost nothing the next 2, that's hard to scheme around.

[@Cajanek026]

I can see him sticking around in the DeAndre Jordan "assistant coach with a player's salary" role for sure

[@무트왈라]

This is why this team is so damn good the vets talk and the young’s listen and they all put in the work and feed off each other

[@ianemory5800]

I don't think it's just luck that almost every finals team has a guy or two like this in their roster.

You need them, because the team is still very young, and young player will make mistakes.

[@TezhanBoyd95]

I just got to know Jeff Green in this moment! And big ups to Aaron Gordon for being coachable!

[@JeffreyPillow]

Every time I see Uncle Jeff I think of my old college basketball teammate Chris. He was always like, "I went to high school with Jeff Green in Hyattsville." Nice to see Uncle Jeff mentoring the youngsters and still out there hooping. The man still has crazy hops all these years later.

[@sammyrasheed7317]

Love that aaron gordon actually listened and learned from him instead of just brushing it off

[@WhelmedButReady]

When the 2018 Cava lost in the Finals, I remember LeBron saying how bad he wished he could win for guys like Jeff Green who've been in the league forever and you don't know how many more chances if any that guys like him have left to a title. Seeing how this era has played out for the Nuggets, I'm really happy to see a huge chunk of that squad be able to finally reach the mountaintop.

[@laupoming]

Jeff Green is a very valuable and consistent player in terms of shooting 3s and powerful dunks.

[@srbclangaming]

The empty seats before the game even ended...its the finals man...Sicne the NBA is learning so much from Jokic and the European approach to the basketball the NBA fans should look at the fans of Europe, especially the Serbian teams Partizan and red star. You as fans are the 6th player on the field, even when your guys are losing 30 in a series, you are there to the last second, hell even 10 minutes later you are there, supporting them and motivating them for the next game. Mf's exit the arena in the third quarter and then spend 6 hrs arguing on social media how the refs have stole the game or something. Do not waste your energy on nothing, spend it on those who you support!

[@timeflies313]

For real. Especially since the Heat are so resilient. Even in this game, they were down by like 13 points with 2 minutes left and fans are already leaving. And then Duncan Robinson hit two quick threes to cut the lead to only 7 points in the span of like 20 seconds like bruh. Never give up until the final buzzer sounds.

[@rafaelramirez1507]

💯% facts 👍

[@mrboast2826]

Don't forget fans who left in Miami vs Spurs 2013 before Ray Allen shot happen...Lol 😅the fu@k with Heat fans...Are they consist Glory Hunter and bandwagon fans

@@Klemintine It’s debatable, Vincent tripped Jokic, and it looked pretty intentional, then the Tatum sprained ankle didn’t look on purpose, but it’s hard to tell since a player doesn’t usually fall with his leg sticking out. Then there was the Max Strus lowering his shoulder into Tatum in the backcourt when the refs weren’t looking

@@Klemintine did you see where the guy lifted his leg way up to hook the other guys leg and the other teammate shoved him? I would call that intentionally trying to hurt someone. There have been some others. Plus miami flops ALOT

That is the problem with Nuggets they tend to rely so much on their lead, and forgot to play defense. Miami played well during clutch, inbound and 3 point plays, Nuggets should play more defense to win Game 4.

I believe the Nuggets will play the same as they played in game 3 by letting their 2 best players do their things and performing perimeter defense on the Heats' 3 point shots.
