Porter hasn't been hurt all season.. the hell are you talking about?


You clearly haven't seen Strawther in these playoffs. This is his first good stretch of basketball and you're calling for him to play big minutes.


No I'm calling for him to stop playing a dude who is hurt.

He had 4 since the start of the 2nd half, their coach took him out early with 7mins left 3rd q.

Lol, off of one playoff series? And an amazing record. With the youngest team in the league too

Nobody wants to allow these coaches to grow with their team

I think there is just about even momentum (?) or maybe a little in Denver's favor which would be outweighed by the OKC homecourt advantage. Could be a coinflip outcome for game seven

OKC might **** their pants in game 7. it seems a lot of them aren't ready for the moment.

Reffing was bad but Thunder also played like garbage. Missed a bunch of open shots. Not good.

28/14/8 on only 1 turnover

Jokic has cleaned up his turnovers last two games, huge difference maker.
