Jokic bailout 3s are backbreaking. Denver should win this, and if they do… you can put it all on Lue’s rotations pretty much. Playing Powell 30 minutes when he’s so bad, sitting Kawhi so long etc. A lot of self inflicted wounds

Is Jokic going to play the whole 4th? Maybe I was wrong

Just like that, the Nuggets are back in the lead.

Jokic is the best offensive player in the NBA

31 minutes for Jokic. Adelman going for it. Thought he might try to steal a minutes or two at the top of the quarter.

Androids do. It helps cool the internal circuitry.

Lue's got to stop screwing around and get Kawhi back in

Edit: I'm an idiot he is in lol

He'd be a starter making $25-$30M a year rather than a journeyman role player if he had any semblance of an offensive skillset. That's how good of a defender he is.

There’s dozens of players that are great defensively but have zero offensive game. Guys like Thabo Sefolosha, Andre Roberson, Ryan Dunn, DJJ, Thompson twins etc.

Ryan Dunn has the makings of a jump shot is much more capable overall on the offensive side than Kris Dunn.

Ryan will get the bag when he's up for extension.

Amen is a superior playmaker / ball handler, and overall the Thompson Twins size and athleticism make them a different case.

based on how this is going I would sub in Simmons for Bogdanovic and have Simmons look to be the first doubler on Jokic with Zubac taking primary coverage. Jokic is getting into a rhythm. they need to make other guys beat them

Since the first quarter of G1, this series has been extremely tight..none of these 2 teams had any double digit leads at any point after that first qtr of G1.

Damn man. I don’t want another trading tough shots finish. It’s too stressful.

Who wins?
