The fact that OKC cannot take advantage of Gordon's injury this early on is extremely concerning.

A bit? Caruso is the vet and the only one on the team(coach included) that’s been in high pressure games(w the Lakers). He needs to calm them down.

If Dort, Wallace, and Wiggins can’t knock down open shots, it’s not looking good for OKC.

Thunder just need one little run with some forced turnovers and fast break points and I think they can get their confidence and take control of this game.

Why are they not attacking Gordon on every possession?


He looks fine. He’s like 75% people are overreacting to this injury for some reason like he’s going to die if he plays lol


He can’t change direction or jump. Literally had to turn 180 to the left the one time they took him off the dribble. Are you sure you’re watching game 7?

They better get it together quickly, not sure they can come back if they get down 20.

is this the biggest upset since 2016 finals if the #1 in net rating all time loses in round 2?

I fully expect this to happen early in the 3rd.

Nuggets have a ton of game 7 experience, might be the difference maker even with Gordon hobbled

No their coach is a moron
Aaron Wiggins isn't sniffing any playing time while Dort is chucking bricks.

OKC is playing like they are afraid of losing. Playing tighter than Aaron Gordon’s hamstring.
