  1. Everyone was saying OKC should’ve traded for a big at the deadline. Hell, PJ Washington was available and obviously OKC could outbid anybody.
     

    But no, they traded for Gordon Hayward, got dominated on the boards, and watched PJ shove their shit in for two weeks. 

  2. Yeah he shows some emotion. Xander and Colin are freaking robots. It’s why Spieth is still captivating despite his total form slump for three years 

  3. Denver goes to the hard double on Ant and he hasn’t solved it. Conley on the bench makes it worse because no ball handler to help. 
     

    Jamal Crawford is good on the call. I agree with the point he made that you just let Ant iso so the double isn’t as effective. Haven’t seen that yet. 

  4. This Knicks team is super fun. That crowd is wild. Hopefully OG can play next game or else attrition has to start playing a part here.

    These last 2 games really take some of the shine off Denver's 2023 title - one of the easiest paths to the title maybe ever:

    8 seed Minnesota

    4 seed Phoenix

    7 seed Lakers

    8 seed Miami

     

    They still killed everybody so it’s a legit title. Who was going to beat them last year?

  6. What an ass kicking. I’m not even sure what Denver can do to adjust other than Jokic puts up 30 shots which might win you 2 games but not 4. 

  7.  Eh. Lot of noise in the metrics last year because the Nuggets took off like 6 weeks. This year I think they finished 9th in D?  The Nuggets defense is like 10th with a top 3 offense

  8. Rudy is a great defensive player and a limited offensive player. He’s been the same dude for 6 years now when healthy.
     

    Overrated or underrated doesn’t mean much. If you have him on your team you will have a good defense no matter who else is out there.

    He’s an incredible basketball mind. While he doesn’t have the natural offensive skill as Joker with the ball… he’s such a smart defender

    Wolves got to sit him for half of the third and part of the fourth and came in completely energized. Jokers gonna have 4 different defenders at different times + roaming DPOY.

    Denver’s bench was minimal. Reggie came in scorching. Nothing from watson or holiday. Ok game by Braun.

    I thought Denver’s bench played pretty well considering their assignment is to play it even while Jokic sits. And they got a ton of run last night with that weird first half. 

  10. If Gordon on Edwards more is going to be the adjustment for the Nuggets, that play late where Edwards blew by him might suggest it’s not gonna be the solution. 

  11. Ant was awesome tonight. This series is going deep - I’d be surprised if it weren’t 2-2 going back to Denver for Game 5.
