Well we gone see who the big dog is in game 7…. I think Denver should be feeling really good about their chances...OKC has shown time after time that they are susceptible to completely losing focus and a veteran team like Den should be able to capitalize on that with crisper and more consistent execution

Jdub needs to be better, but I think we’re underestimating just how hard it is to generate your own shot, consistently, in a series like this. We saw Kawhi struggle in the 1st round against Denver as the series went on. Even though Harden isn’t a stranger to coming up short in the postseason, even he was too.

The lack of being able to self-create from behind the arc has really stopped OKC from taking advantage in this series. 3s are how you kill Denver because making it a 2s v. 2s in the halfcourt won’t work. You won’t beat Denver that way.

They need a sword like that to fight against Jokic posting them up all in the halfcourt, leading to easy offense for himself or looks for his teammates. OKC just doesn’t have a player with that kind of orbit to generate runs from.

I rock with Shai but the rest of these young dudes on that team act like they’re alphabet mafia man.

If Denver makes the finals, Booth should get his job back :mjlol:


Presti gotta make a move and get SGA a proper scorer. Honestly okc needs someone like a young Clarkson that can get buckets off the bench. No one can create their own shot but SGA
This is why I said SGA's season was being underrated/overlooked. Everyone says OKC is loaded but that's a lie.

They have a lot of guys who can play but only one shot creator.

OKC has players that are perfect for their roles but not much more than that other than Wallace. For example, Wiggins is a solid bench player but I don’t wanna expand his role in a pinch.
