Needed one more rebound from him, going to cost me $500

He's an amazing defender. So disruptive out there.

OKC just wearing down Denver. Jokic missing a LOT of shots lately.

OkC evens up the series, and despite their dominant season, I'm not certain that's a bad thing for us. Denver looks really good to me, and it's almost a coin toss who I would rather play. I think either team will be difficult for us to beat, and the best thing for us is a 7-game series that drains them with us finishing off the Warriors Wednesday night.

In a game where these teams struggled to get to 90 OKC bench put up 35 points. I watched the last 7-8 minutes of this game. It didn't get any prettier than what the people in this thread had been describing.

I think a long series disadvantages Denver far more than OKC, who are young and go five-deep into their bench. If anything, OKC is scarier if they can get through the Jokic/Denver gauntlet, as they will be battle-tested against a former champion and demonstrate that they can succeed without solely relying on runaway victories.

Now if Denver beats OKC in 6 or 7 games, I do think they will be more worn out. You can even see it now with Jokic. I think all those miles on the tires and the load he carries is starting to catch up, as he is missing a lot of shots lately. In the end, I think he and Denver run out of gas and OKC emerges the winner of this series.

The games this playoffs seem to be either a blowout or low scoring and ugly. Im trying to think of a really great game Ive seen basketball wise. The New York comebacks were fun but the basketball has not been that great overall in my opinions.
