Someone forgot to tell OKC the second half has started.

I don’t understand how that’s a foul on Chet.

I wonder what would happen if Adelman didn't play Westbrook, and Westbrook was like what gives, and Adelman just looked him straight in the eyes and said, "You suck."

Nuggets should be driving all the way on him, he already is stepping back from layups scared to get his 5th.

He would of punched Adelman so strong so he would fly long time and die from hunger mid flight

It's honestly crazy how much of an x factor Caruso is. When he's out there, he's like a 2nd coach that gets everybody in their spots for easy looks. Right now they are looking stiff.

Gotta give props to AG for his breakout year.

Zebras will take Shai out with his 5th shortly

Watch for it

Didn't he lead the NCAA in assists or something? I dunno.

It's a landing zone foul.

Nah...being tired is a more legitimate excuse than a messed up shoulder you can't lift above your head.

That's just how it goes.

Okay he has a messed up shoulder that may affect his shooting. What else has he contributed?

Thats a Serious question? What more do you expect from him considering its MICHAEL PORTER JUNIOR, but also MPJ with a hurt shoulder? To suddenly become a grinder on defense? Dive for loose balls? Hustle on the boards? Have you ever dealt with a bad shoulder or neck or back in your life? To answer your question about what else he brings...Absolutely nothing.

He probably shouldn't be playing. No, he almost certainly shouldn't be. Hes just out there with the hope he makes a shot or two and his presence at the very least is providing spacing for jokic. That might be the answer. Spacing is what he brings. In theory at least, lately defense has caught on and don't feel afraid to leave him alone.

He shouldn't be playing. We know that. But who's taking his spot?

Mpj hasn't been good, but give him some slack. His injury cant be ignored while saying "fatigue " is an excuse for jokic...

Braun has been good all series. Murray has shown up here. Gordons always game. Its about the best you can hope for in regards to help for jokic but the fanboys are singling out the one guy who shouldn't even be playing...just in case this doesn't go well. Preemptive strikes.

Man, Denver does not deserve to be in this game, even.

Who wins Game 6??
