Love the Thunder getting to pack the defense on Jokic because they know Watson and Westbrook can’t shoot and their shooters (MPJ, Gordon) are injured.

It’s crazy how many high scoring guards Caruso is far more valuable than.


This is RealGM though, about 70% casuals and will only see the scoring department. :banghead:

Defensive scheme forcing other players to make plays on Denver, and with AG banged up the guys just aren’t there

Remember before the season I said no team with Russ would be taken seriously as a contender.

He never fails to prove me right. :D


Let Russ Cook! 8-)

AC is a great defender, but there is no way OKC should be getting away with him guarding Jokic.

Caruso has done quite a number on him. Jokic is absolutely exhausted

Nice of JDub to finally show up. His 17 ppg on 45% TS are pretty much the only reason this series is still going on.

Surprise surprise, Denvers supporting cast sucks once again. Aaron Gordon injured and that leaves MPJ / Jamal, and yeah... the most inconsistent offensive options on a team.

Nobody in modern basketball knows how to make entry passes anymore. Blame the game moving away from low post basketball so nobody practices it anymore.

Denver needs better scouting and coaching staff who can find talent and develop them for the bench. Might be too late for Jokic era though.

If you’ve ever wondered if the media is in cahoots with the rigged NBA just listen to the announcers ignoring all of the blatant fouls and praising OKCs “tough” defense like we all can’t see what’s going on
