Huge shot in response from Williams. Good hoops this.

Denver looked dominant at times but OKC just hung close enough and Denver went through cold stretches.

I've only watched the fourth quarter. While Jokic is obviously a great offensive player, he's terrible on defense. OKC is abusing him.

Porter is kind of terrible.

Porter's shoulder has **** them. Some real bad misses here.

Surprised that Gordon missed that shot, he's been making those clutch 3s all playoffs.

Come on man. Even in a losing effort this was a legendary carry job.

Murray and Westbrook lost that game for Denver. Both were so out of control and wild and their unforced moron plays gifted OKC probably close to 20 points. Murray especially though, that's a 20 point lead at halftime if he is just Ryan Rollins or something. Murray also never sprinted back on defense once, constantly getting beat in transition and gave some awful shooting fouls. A giant turd of a game masked by his point total.

If Doc was coaching the Nuggets, he would say that Russell Westbrook air balled those open 3's because he didn't get enough touches and couldn't get into a good rhythm.

Doc would come out next game and force touches for Westbrook.

Denver OKC really feels like Bucks-Nets 21 semis. Like that’s the best two teams with Tatum out.

OKC will probably win in seven when they should already have this series if not for that one meltdown.

I was thinking it was like GSW vs Memphis in 2015. Up and coming young team trying to break through vs vet laden playoff experienced team. Braun has been brutal for Denver these whole playoffs. Can’t believe he is still starting for them. MPJ not much better but at least has the bung shoulder excuse. Denver has three reliable players and nothing else.

1-15 from non Jokic nuggets in the 4th.

Wow.

Wow.

He should seek a trade.
