Jokic’s top of the arc 3 is low key unstoppable
There’s never been a time in history when we look back and say that the people who were censoring free speech were the good guys.

If this beat down doesn’t light a fire for the nuggets in game 3, I don’t know what will.

OKC needs to win the net one to regain home court advantage

They didnt just "tie" the series, Denver still has the upperhand after this game
Upperhand? They are getting embarrassed and still have to win another one in OKC.

Did you start following OKC just before the playoffs started?


No...just new to this board. Not sure what that has to do with the plethora of OKC haters.

The NBA Illuminati's script is clear ...

In the east, have both home teams fall 0-2

In the west, have both home teams drop game 1 and then tie the series 1-1 with a blowout

I see you Illuminati :nod:
Equanimity, peace, harmony and conscientiousness, friends
