MVP Finalists Face-to-Face for this West Semifinals Showcase! | Official Nuggets (#4) vs. OKC (#1) Series Thread!

Denver just never dies. You knew when Gordon put that three up it was going in. They've pulled out so many of these games the last three postseasons that I expect it at this point.

They win games they have no business winning. When OKC fouled Denver while Jokic was on the bench, I knew how it would end. That was indefensible.

 

[BucciMane]

He’s number one on my WOAT players to bet on list.

One of the worst contracts in the league.

Between Handsome Ham (Ime),The Hamptons Ham (JJ) and these guys it's been a real coaching clinic

 

[Left.A1]

Denver did what they needed to do. Now for a team that probably feels they're playing freely (and this goes for NY and Indiana), go for the kill. A Game 2 win by these road teams kinda ends it, especially OKC who probably thought they were bulletproof at home.

Yeah its going to be tough for the thunder but hey that's what its supposed to feel like in the playoffs.… not saying its anywhere close to over either…. OKC is a fundamentally solid team...they just need to execute much better than they did in the 4th quarter tonight

 

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

42-22-6, 18pts in the 4th on 1 day's rest

Cats loved to point out his "sloppy" physique, but the man has the biggest motor in the league.

I'm impressed that Russ actually passed that up to Gordon instead of going out like a suicide bomber

Breh I legit screamed "DON'T YOU DARE! " when I saw him going at full speed

How do the Thunder respond after an embarrassing loss like that at home Jokic and Denver gotta feel like if they come out and hit them in the mouth early these young nigggas might roll it up

Could be a '95 ORL vs HOU situation for sure

But I felt Caruso's play masked a pretty shyt offensive game by the Thunder. Jalen was trash. SGA played weird/complacent, isiah couldn't hit a shot.

Yet it was still looking like a comfortable victory with 3-minutes left, up 7-8 points and a great job of getting Jokic in foul trouble.

Basically, it was far from the Thunder's best or most focused game. But we saw with LAC last series that you can't be coughin up games like that bc you never know if or when shots will fall.

 

[Regular_P]

I'll say it again.. Sam Presti the glorified pick hoarder. Here we are another year where he doesn't put OKC over the top to guarantee a championship. KD was right there for the taking but nope. "But they won the trade!" GTFOH!!

Preach!

They have 50 draft picks and that dikkhead still couldn't be bothered to cash some in at the deadline.

He HELPED Dallas beat them last year!

Game of Caruso's life but the rest of that team was besides SGA. They needed this game.

Yo somebody in here called Chet Holmgren Abe Lincoln and I can't get that shyt out my head.

 

[Primetime]

Dude is a damn fool. Single-handedly lost them the game

 

[tremonthustler1]

Nah, I don’t want you to be happy. fukk both of these scenarios

Go Nuggets

 

[BucciMane]

[Slim]

I want them to give the MVP to SGA and then have Jokic go ballistic and win the series.


It’d be like Hakeem vs D. Robinson in ‘95.

 

[JealousOnesEn_V]

He’s right if okc loses this series

Right it’s the GM’s fault they choked away the game lmao
