Denver's suffocating OKC with their defense.
But tbh, it doesn't look like anything spectacular. Just looks like OKC doesn't have shot creators.

After the 2nd airball, you should just sub yourself out.

Russ in his free agent interviews: I'm gonna get you like one high effort rebound but airball three wide open corner 3s in a row. Cool?

If they let Russ keep shooting, maybe one of his airballs will hit someone in the head and injure someone and Jokic can get a rest that way.

Westbrook is a rollercoaster, but his minutes defensively have actually been good and on the glass. He hasn't been a negative out there overall. This game is more on Daigneault. Just like Game 1.

What do you think his game high for air balls is?
Gotta be at least 3 right?

OKC arena theatrics are putrid, playing the cringe tiny violins, it'll be satisfying when they get bounced.

Can't be called "Westbrick" if you don't hit the rim.

Ya I’m used to those being what are basically dunks for any other player

Tonight is the first game that Denver has looked like the clear cut better basketball team this series.

If OKC can't turn this game around and lose, this series is over.
