God dammit.
Nuggets are now missing:
Paul Millsap (starting PF, highest paid player, best defensive player)
Gary Harris (starting SG, best shooter, best perimeter defender)
Will Barton (starting SF, best pure scorer)
Isaiah Thomas (back up PG, biggest free agent signing)
Michael Porter Jr (top draft pick)

Nuggets still in first in the West.
Jokic last night:
19 points, 15 rebounds, 14 assists, 3 blocks, 1 steal
They just got Harris and Millsap back, and Barton should only miss one or two more games at most.
Avs are hanging onto a playoff spot but not playing well at all recently.
Going to the Avs vs Sharks tonight, Mammoth vs Roughnecks on Sunday, and Nuggets vs Clippers on the 10th. Hit Nuggets vs Spurs this previous Friday and Mammoth vs Seals a few days prior. Busy few weeks.

Avs will be playing outdoor classic next season at USAFA. I’m stoked about that one.

Seems like a good time to bump this thread with the MLB season about to start and the NHL/NBA heading into the playoff stretch.
Nuggets are battling the Warriors for the #1 seed in the west. Depending on the outcome of tonight's games they will either be 1.5 games up or 0.5 games behind.
The Avalanche are battling for the wild card in the west. They're currently one point up for the last wild card and 2 points back for the first wild card. Despite missing two of their three best players, Landeskog and Rantanen, down the stretch.
The Mammoth are also holding onto the last playoff spot in the NLL. So hopefully there are 3 teams playing playoff games at the Pepsi Center shortly.
Also, it's hilarious to see LeBron miss the playoffs in his first season out west.

Lakers built that team all wrong. You have to surround LeBron with shooters.

Avs need just one point or one Arizona loss in the final 2 games to clinch a playoff spot.
The Avs may take a prospect of theirs right out of the NCAA tournament and into the NHL playoffs. They hold the rights to UMass defenseman Cale Makar, who is currently playing in the Frozen Four. He is a strong candidate to win the Hobey Baker award, the hockey equivalent of the Heisman Trophy.
Nuggets look like they're going to get the #2 seed. Warriors look unbeatable and the Rockets really have the Nuggets' number this year, but I like the Nuggets against any other team in the West.
Still four weeks left in the Mammoth season but they're pretty much locked into a playoff spot, with an outside chance at getting a first round home game.
Rockies have scored 2 runs in their last 4 games. They always play like shit in Florida. But at least they finally get their home opener on Friday. 7 game road trip to start the season is some bullshit.

Avs locked up their playoff spot. Two years in a row now.
Nuggets still on track for the #2 seed.
Mammoth need one win in 4 games to get a playoff spot. Hoping they get it tonight, where I'll be at the game.

The "bunch of jerks" Canes with their first playoff berth in 10 years. Happy for the local team cuz they've been a shitshow for quite a while but, on the other hand, it's been nice to be able to get center ice seats for under $100.

After getting roughed up in LA, the D-backs take 2 of 3 from the Red Sox.
Coyotes gave it a run but fail to make the playoffs...again.
Suns have their typical season and another chance at a first round draft pick.
Figures the Hotshots take over first place that the AAF suspends operations. So much for spring football.
Still have the Rattlers, undefeated after hanging 13 TDs (91 pts) in yesterday's IFL game against San Diego.

Avs get Calgary in round one starting tonight. Rantanen is back so the Avs will be at full strength. Both teams had inconsistent goalie play all season so it could be a high scoring series.
Nuggets get the Spurs in round one, and luckily they will get the winner of OKC vs Portland in round 2 if they win. That means Houston and Golden State are set to clash in round 2 if they win their respective first round series. So that worked out great for the Nuggets. If they have to play either of those teams it will be in the Conference Finals, and they only have to get through one of them rather than both.
Mammoth will try again to clinch a playoff spot tomorrow night at home against the Knighthawks.

Avs took game 2 in OT, heading back to Denver with the series tied at 1-1.
Nuggets looked horrible in game 1. Couldn't hit any fucking shots.

Holy shit at the Avs last night. Hung 6 goals on the Flames to take a 2-1 series lead.
And the kid, Cale Makar, scored a goal in his NHL debut. Last week he was playing in college, and now he's the first defenseman ever to make his NHL debut in the playoffs and score a goal.
