Emotions are running high in the 2019 NBA Playoffs series between the Denver Nuggets and Portland Trail Blazers. The teams got into a scuffle during Portland’s Game 6 victory on Thursday night. Portland’s bench became animated at the victory, as veteran swingman Evan Turner saluted the Nuggets with a gesture sure to earn detention in any public school. Writer Mark Kiszla of the Denver Post has returned fire in an article sure to raise eyebrows, if not temperatures, as the deciding Game 7 approaches.
Kiszla does not hold back in the opening paragraph:
