Jokic forget how to pass? OKC defense is different.

OKC just too deep and too good defensivly....Don't think Nuggets have a chance in this series.

I loved OG, but we kept Bosh too long and watched him walk in a S&T for peanuts. Pretty sure if OG told Masai he wanted to stay, he would still be here.

We should never allow a star player to leave for peanuts again.

It's being an online contrarian now to not want to trash one of the guys responsible for winning the only championship this organization is likely ever gonna have now in our lifetimes, eh?

Maybe being an online contrarian ain't so bad then.

How do you feel about Norman Powell? If this is your argument, why aren’t you mad at mdenny for trashing norm?

I don't hate norm. I was demonstrating the hypocrisy. Went back and checked. 73 posts bashing fred after game 1. Yet you can't take a single one bashing norm.

The double standard is astounding. We both know that the fred hate is the toxic element on this board. Not norm hate.

if this thunder team were still in seattle i’d like them a whole lot more. i mean oklahoma city.

as an aside i was thinking what would have happened if portland took durant instead of oden. team moves to okc without the durant era thunder and they’re potentially a poverty franchise.

They have one of the best GMs in basketball so i am sure they would have made it work....For me idc where the team plays as long as they are fun to watch and this team is good.

Man, these playoffs have been nuts. I'm so glad the era of Warriors/superteams dominating is over.

Holy I caught the last 10 seconds and glad I did.

Also is that Joey ** Graham on the Denver bench or his brother?

Today was a good day of playoff basketball

Westbrook was gonna have a shaqtin a fool moment running away from the ball during a crucial rebound.

I was also yelling him to pass the ball and not take the last shot even though he has been good tonight.

stephen graham, he's been an assistant forever it seems.....anyways, that game what the hell kind of tactic was that by Daigneault, when you think you're smarter than convention and it backfires

A lot of ppl wanted Cason Wallace over GD, well 21mins 3-2-3, I was never really high on the kid, all defensive PGs are a dime a dozen and potentially could be a hindrance

MainEvent · Post #817 » by **MainEvent** » Tue May 6, 2025 5:04 am

why did OKC insta foul up 3 instead of burning some clock first? the ball was under Denvers basket with 10 or 11 seconds left

good games tonight

That didn't age well

No worries, I thought the same at that point. What an incredible comeback. What a game. Gordon with the second game winner. He fits so well in that team. And Westbrook who was unplayable on so many teams is a key contributor.

Just game 1s, but score some points for Team Parity. Even if the favourites go on to win, we should get some good series.

I think Joker might be #3 all time after Jordan and LeBron. Especially if he picks up 2 more titles or so.
