Not with this version of jdub.

Whatever version of JDub is there, that's the guy who's there. So you saying they won't win the title or are you saying they won't win it if 'x y and z happen' lol

Doing a victory lap because a 68 win team needed a 4th quarter collapse from their opponent to not go down 3-1 is interesting

If I’m wrong I’ll be the first person to say so

 

[msgkings322]

Didn’t realize the series ended today. Interesting because Denver just got on their flight to okc my sources tell me

You have weird issues with people making predictions lol

I’m saying that the version of jdub that only shows up in the playoffs isn’t good enough for them to win the title. This isn’t even the same version from the regular season because that version is an all stat

Unless it’s him making them lol

They had some players, but that starting 5 unit is what made them great. It's what they built their team around and why they waited patiently to get everyone healthy when many said blow it up because someone (Murray, Porter, etc) were hurt in the previous years before their title.

Can you name a recent team that won it all without a solid bench? I can't.

You specifically said the Nuggets were only 6 deep. Right here.

--->Depth doesn't matter as much in the playoffs. If you've got -->6 guys<-- you can trust, that's all any team needs. Denver literally won their title because they had an elite starting 5

I disagree with what you've said. I think depth matters greatly.

A question. When the Warriors were winning titles were they only six deep? Nope.

When your Lakers won it all in '20 were they only six deep? Nope.

Vegas never gets it wrong?

LOL.

They do all the time. Sounds like easy money for you.

If the thunder are good as you and others claim they are this series should have been a sweep especially with Jokic being mediocre in 3 of the 4 games

So to sum up your mealy mouthed dancing: are the Thunder winning the title this year, or not?

I have a weird issue with people acting like something can’t happen. Acting like Denver can’t win a series that is 2-2 with the best player in nba is what I find weird

That's not how the playoffs work. They aren't the 2017 Warriors.

How does making a prediction mean you are saying something can't happen?

Jdub been a role player through 1.5 rounds

You can clearly see what I’m saying unless you are intentionally trying to play dumb

How does the playoffs work? Is it first to 4 or something else?

Yeah I can clearly see you are running away from making a definitive prediction so you can pretend you are smart no matter what happens.

You wouldn't understand

Have you seen thunder post since the game ended? He is coming across as it is completely impossible for Denver to win this series. It is a 2-2 series which is as close as a series can be through 4 games

Not running away from anything. Not a coward like you

This is part of your weirdness. No one is saying Denver can't win. thunder and I just think they won't win.

OKC just got home court back
