2025 NBA PLAYOFFS West Semifinals: #1 Oklahoma City Thunder vs #4 Denver Nuggets (OKC leads 3-2)

Denver is not going to stay close if they keep missing open shots

[darkse1d]

Nuggets ex-GM should be ashamed of himself. They just needed 1 serviceable bench player last season and this season. OKC KFC UFC .. none of them would have mattered. Nuggets would have swept both years in the playoffs. The starting lineup with jokic is far ahead over any other team, it's not even close.

Funny how the Thunder keep baiting the Nuggets. Instead of fronting Jokic, they’ll give him a clean entry passing lane, on purpose, knowing a defender is already ready to jump the pass.

Same thing when Jokic has the ball, they don’t bother denying the cutter. Instead, they allow a clear passing angle, but there’s already help lurking, anticipating and ready to deflect the ball.

There are also times when the Thunder will intentionally overload one side of Jokic, baiting him into thinking there’s a clear spin move and scoring angle, only for a help defender to already be in position, ready to contest or poke the ball loose.

Celtics of the west where your role players are so good they can carry you

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.

So you're telling me SGA isn't MJ?

He's looking like Mary Jane

Have to drive to the paint and generate fouls. Hopefully Thunder’s bigs also gets into foul trouble for Jokic to do his thing in crunch time.

I take back everything negative I said about Caruso. He's like a modern day Michael Cooper. Probably shouldn't be guarding Jokic in the post though. That's probably asking too much.

[Wolfgang630]

I need Jokic to be aggressive as hell and take the most shots. He’s shooting efficiently

OMG what a pass brodie.

Bad call on the out of bounds

[Chuck Everett]

Westbrook dropping dimes tonight. And Peyton Watson is playing so serious defense.

[bbms]

this is SIMPLE

cason wallace is WRECKING this series and this IDIOT wants to experiment in a game 5 like this

[mattg]

Murray is soooooo lazy and nonchalant with his passes. Unacceptable to have 2 unforced lazy turnovers already

[scrabbarista]

I am so glad I'm not the Nuggets' coach, because Westbrook has been great in these Playoffs.

[Chuck Everett]

What a sloppy play by Murray. Value the basketball.

[AmIWrongDude]

Someone tell me how AG got soooo damn good

[scrabbarista]

Strawther, please. Calm yourself. Lock in.
