If jokic was being aggressive scoring i could excuse him being passive defensively. Right now something has to give on one end...

Maybe he's saving it for the 4th. I hope so. Could work out perfectly here with braun and murray doing a good job so far.

OKC bench can easily hang with Denver starters.

If Jokic looks passive I have a case KAT sleeps mid games :lol:


Yes KAT looks the same from time to time, unfortunately. But Jokic is a key offensive piece for the Nuggets, they need him to be aggressive.

Caruso is the leader of OKC

This game is a mental battle between Joker and Caruso :nod:
