They should postpone the second half for a day or two to give everyone a chance to fully recuperate

Damn..Nuggets are terrible..but OKC almost as bad..
I swear if Jokic gets going somehow Nuggets will turn the tables.
OKC better be at least +20 at the half

The Thunder have basically every chance of making this a 20+ point game and haven't done so yet. If the Nuggets just make shots on semi decent level going forward, they have a very good chance of winning this game.

Have we really gotten so soft that if teams get "only" 36 hours in between games it's an excuse for poor play? These are elite athletes, just stop it with that silliness.

OKC has no game plan to attack the zone. They are clueless.

That’s gotta be the longest it’s taken Jokic to get a FG ever right?

OKC quickly becoming a very dislikeable team with constant whining of their coach and foul baiting tactics

I agree. A lot of people are upset about a “quick” turnaround but this play is inexcusable

Man, I'm so disappointed in Jokic right now. I still believe be can turn it around but this is easily the worst I've seen him play I a span of 3 games in the playoffs.

Nuggets 0-16 for 3pts and only 10 down..lol..OKC is 1-15 for 3pts..
Who figures out first that constantly going to the rim for 2pts or foul..will win this game:)

Jokic is playing so pathetic. He's not getting double sometimes and still passing it out poorly.

You're calling it silliness, but look at the f'n product on the floor. Clearly adequate rest is necessary. You'd have a point if both teams were playing well. They're both awful out there.

Who wants to start a petition to a ban all afternoon NBA games until we figure out what the hell is going on. This is an unwatchable product.
