I’m just glad this game is competitive so far. Back to back blowouts for TNT’s Double Header would be a snooze fest.

Props to Jokic and his Nuggets for fighting until the very end even though they are outmatched in overall talent.

Everyone saying Jokic sucks on defense. Well he stepped it up the last three games.

Denver is just hanging around..... GS doesn't have much intensity at all. It's almost like they are playing in an all star game.....

I would prefer Jokic go to drop coverage on the screen and just live and die by Steph's pullups, rather than sellout and leave Green open so he can set someone up for a layup or a 3.

some really sloppy passing going

If the nuggets can keep forcing Golden State into half court offense well stand a chance. FTs have been big for this, despite missing half of them.

This game feels similar to Spurs-Warriors Game 5 in 2018. Big man surrounded by thin roster tries his best to make it close against the Warriors to try and extend the series but falls short in the end.

Yep that was some pretty sloppy play from both sides, but it benefits the Nuggets as they're less precise overall so a scramble benefits them.

Steph had a Marcus Smart flashback and said nope.

Jokic needs to be WAY more aggressive scoring. Stop trying to thread the needle when you can just shoot over them.
