Chet was on the bench too long in the first half.

Three Murray lazy passes, three OKC buckets. Two of which are and-1's.

It looked like Murray pulled the chair on Cason.

OKC's half -ending run is saving them from an otherwise awful 1st half performance at home.

He's also been AWFUL about getting back on defense. Turn and sprint dummy.

Murray is a terrorist. Such a dumb, low-IQ player. And the worst defender in this series by a mile. He may as well have an OKC jersey on.

Okc is so lucky Denver has been making inexplicably dumb passes. They should be up 10 minimum with OKC’s effort so far
