Murray and Westbrook are legit terrible. The fact Denver even has a lead is a miracle with those two scrubs on the floor.

Quality first quarter. Feels like we're in for a possession game.

Nah these Thunder aren't the Celtics. The champion Celtics could all break down a defense and make a tough shot without a single screen. That's exactly what this OKC team lacks and why Denver's zone is so effective.

As someone who’s rooting for the Nuggets, I have a bit of an anxiety attack every time the ball is in Westbrook’s hands.
