Series Thread: 2nd Round: 1) OKC Thunder vs 4) Denver Nuggets

[tlance]

I mean denver did look totally lost defnesively

But dude, Murray missed 3 wide open 3s ona. Single possession

Porter barely hit the rim on 2 that he could’ve stuck his finger in his mouth and checked the wind before shooting

Watson the same

It was just brutal to watch

You can’t tell me that Denver shot opportunities were as good as OKC in the 4th.

There might have been a couple open looks. The one for Watson comes to mind. But that was by design.

 

[thunderc]

Bench scoring a little closer but still 22-10. I want even more bench minutes because I know what getting the shooters the Thunder have involved can do. I’ve seen it too much to think different.

 

[HurricaneDij39]

The Nuggets ought to fight back in Game 6... Whether it will be enough to send the series back to OKC I don't want to say, but hopefully they continue to prove me wrong.

 

[HurricaneDij39]

If the Celtics player better without Tatum Twitter will be horrendous

Very true.

 

[thunderc]

What a game!!!

 

[DJ Fieri]

Just go look at your yearbook some more

@thunderc with the savagery.....LOL.

 

[thunderc]

Brawn and Porter 4-19, Denver can’t win with that.

Nope porter need to do the right thing and not play again this series

I don’t think Denver can do that.

Porter has to play better

 

[realityball]

I’m not saying they played like champions, but Denver looked like the Celtics in that last quarter …

 

[bksballer89]

I would start Watson

 

[bksballer89]

I don’t think Denver can do that.

Porter has to play better

He has a shoulder injury that would have kept him out for a month. I get trying to tough it out but when you are hurting the team then that’s the time when someone needs to have that convo with him

Yeah, maybe so.

It is the lack of depth coming out again though.

Alternatives are sparse.

Or if he insists on playing then just don’t play him in the 4th. At this point I rather have Russ or Watson getting those open looks in the 4th over Porter with his shoulder injury

Gotta be watson

Russ is worse

 

[trojanfan12]

Yeah I know... Usually when one resorts to profane name-calling they typically have the emotional capacity of a 13-year-old.

Funny, they say the same thing about people who have to attack another teams fanbase because their team lost.

That's the problem with Russ.

He always impacts the game...you just never know if it's going to help you win, or help you lose.

They got "good Russ" vs. the Clippers and he was a big part of why they won.

Unfortunately for the Nugs...they are now getting "bad Russ".

One of the most important plays of the game he dribbled off his foot and just watched as okc went on the break

Didn’t even get to half court…from beyond the 3pt line
