I'll never count Jokic out but this series is going to be an uphill battle. I don't think the rest of his teammates can keep up with this level of defensive pressure. I wonder about in game 1 how much rust was a factor for OKC.

And they still would’ve won if not over coaching.

We played dumb as hell game 1, not only defensively with fouling for no reason but with additionally low iq shot selection. Shai settled a lot of the first game, they purposely made jokic guard in space this game. Denver hasn't been able to run a half court offense without turning it over, they basically have ben regulated to scoring off misses or fts. I dont even think jokic was good game 1, we bailed him out that 4th quarter, just very dumb basketball that game. Denver probably has 5 usable players and 1 of them in Murray has the best defenders on him all game.
