I mean and OKC completely gave away game 1 so they’ve had some breaks too. This should have been a series finale game if not for the horrific final minute strategy OKC had in Game 1.

Joker is great, but did you fail to watch games 2-4? He was pretty bad tbh.

Ummm. No. It happened and was ridiculous. Denver still should have won and kudos to Dort for making wide open threes, but officials had a major impact in the fourth when they decided to change how they were calling the game.


bullshite

At the 10:11 mark Denver was up 90-81

At the 0.22 mark OKC was up 109-103 (so outscored 28-13).

In that timeframe OKC called for 4 fouls to Denver 3.

This game was about fatigue. Just like game 4.

Refs let them play it out in almost 10 minutes not a lot of overall fouls compared to normal (7 total fouls).

Jokic had a monster game. Challenge is when he gets a lot of shots it throws rest out of rhythm. Catch 22.

One stat sticks out and its FG’s

Denver went 40-97
OKC went 41-82

Denver out rebounded 57-47 but shot worse.

Games every other day for 12 games in a row really hurting Denver.

Wasn’t able to watch but I was checking the box score. After the 3rd quarter, Jokic had played 32 out of a possible 36 minutes. I knew we were gonna win when I saw that.

Jokic has had a couple really good games this series but the lack of bench is starting to catch up with them.

That’s incorrect, it wasn’t a travel, it was two travels on the play. He walks after securing the rebound then again when he takes off to go down court. Refs were awful in both games tonight.

After the no call on slender man there, who cares if Jokic takes an extra step.

Brunson hurt?

Feels like they've given up, but it wouldn't be the most surprising thing in the world. A game 6 with Curry back would be very interesting.

It will be super satisfying to see Knicks close out Boston at home Game 6. These fans are cheering like they won the NBA Finals. You are down 3-1 Boston. If the odds are +100 or greater for Knicks to win series after this, I'm going to bet. Celtics won't win 3 in a row.

Some serious ref shenanigans in this second half. Calling literally every bump on NY and nothing on the Celtics helping them go on a run.

The MBA def wants a possible close out game at the Garden. A ratings monster.
