This would be like OKC PLAYING WITHOUT CHET BEFORE ANY ARROGANT OKC FANS START RUNNING THEIR COCKY MOUTHS IN COMMENTS I would still take Denver in a playoff series where there is no back-to-back and you get to focus on one opponent and the other thing is the stakes are higher, the games are actually officiated a little bit differently and things slow down the defense is tighten up yeah I would take Denver fully healthy in the playoff series in five games over OKC no questions asked five games at the most the number one because Denver is Battle tested Denver knows how to turn it up in the playoffs OKC is not battle tested they are very good they got a great future but they're not battle tested that's why I said five games Denver in the playoffs is a different beast and when they're fully healthy they know how to shut it down this OKC team will be lucky to get one victory in a series like that's why I said five games at the most the Denver winning that same thing with Houston Denver would take them at 5 as well maybe even a sweep over Houston
Murray was kinda mid..this means the Thunder still aint contenders
Nuggets were interesting and surprisingly good in their early defense with Gordon, Pwat, KCP. Something for the playoffs
Absolutely enjoy watching OKC, the intensity on both ends of the floor and not just the offensive side is refreshing and brings me back to the 90's style of basketball. 👌
SGA is a master of those 360° jump shots. 💯 0:49
Giddy holding on to the ball longer I see
👀Looking like a finals moment. 2:24
Aaron Jordan needs to start posterizing everybody
OKC looks good but I just can’t imagine Holmgren staying healthy for an entire season + playoffs with that frame of his.
I wonder if NBA players watch this and look at the comments after their game
YES!!! I love the the fact that our Nuggets lost by a tiny margin without Jokic! Mark my words, OKC will get annihilated when AND IF we face then again with everyone onboard. ✌️ out
How tf Josh Kiddey got a job still
I hope Jokic is okay. Lower back pain is not something to mess with. Denver still gave it a good battle without him.
Wiggly Wiggins
⚡🆙
Micic is start to make impact to the team now…a little consistent and he will get his minutes…
I was at that game but we left early and the seconds. Left he announced by basketball team to welcome is
🤣 Made my night 7:30 💙🌩️☝️
Great win boys
The way Denver played in the first time that they played in OKC the very first time they played in OKC earlier this season that's the way Denver will play in the playoffs pay attention and don't get it twisted OKC fans could you people are even worse yes worse than Phoenix fans don't even try to twist it we're talking about playoffs the playoffs as a whole different animal not the same there's a lot of differences even the officiating is done differently in the playoffs absolutely
No Joker and lost by 5 on the road. Smh with Joker it’s unfair
Nuggs just cannot beat this team. Better hope they don't face them in the playoffs. I keep telling people, the only teams out west that can beat DEN are OKC, PHX, and Clips.
-Slide Chet to PF position. He also needs to step up his scoring and rebounding game.
-Add a versatile big at C who can rebound and body up inside the paint, then slide JDub to SF.
-I am not sure about Giddey or Dort or none of them remains at the starting five.
-Give Wiggins more playing time.
-Please continue playing the JWill+Kenrich combo in the future.
Wow OKC is really Nuggets kryptonite.
Yesirski
holmgren's maturity, discipline, fundamentals and mamba mentality deserves my vote for ROTY
Okc my god so strong…
Two best true basketball teams in nba. Everyone involved playing with heart and for eachother. Love watching games like these
I don't think okc can win a 7 game series against denver.
Love watching Nuggets lose
Only LAKERS can Defeat OKC…
If Denver had won they would be #2 in the Western Conference. But now they slid down to #4. I feel bad for them. Congrats to the Thunder. Great game.
