Meh it's just one game. One game that I enjoyed thoroughly but one game nonetheless.

I don't expect Denver to move on to the next round. I won't talk any shite until after the season.

Does Chet usually take 10 sec to shoot a FT? His first miss, looked like he took way too long. Then he was inside his head.

Yes he takes long. He is also still getting in game shape was hurt most of season then didn’t play as much last few weeks reg season. Then only 4 games in past 3+ weeks, so is not into game shape. I expect a better game from him and others Wed.

Gonna be a great series. This feels like a big Game 1 loss given the rest situations for both teams. Adelman got caught with his pants down taking Jokic out, but then Daigneault bailed him right back out.

The Nugs won't shoot that bad from 3 again, and Caruso won't play like that again. Anybody's series.

And I would say Russ win’t shoot like that again and Jokic won’t score as many. And I could say Chet and JDub and Joe don’t shoot that bad again. And Mark doesn’t make those bad decisions again.

Lots of storylines and Wed night will fill in a lot of blanks. Agree, shaping up to be a great series.

I guess, but it was close to average for Westbrook and not sure OKC has anyone that can slow Jokic down.

Russ was 5 over avg which is more than lost by. Just need to contain Jokic a bit more, foul trouble meant IHart/Chet playing him less minutes.

I think IKC had cobwebs and will be better prepared tonight.

NBA needs these top seed to win or else it will minimize the reg season quite a lot.

You are already trying to blame the NBA???? OKC is the #1 seed. They need to start playing like it. They have nobody to blame but themselves.

Scott Foster, James Williams, Ed Malloy and JB DeRosa are the referees for tonight’s Nuggets vs. Thunder Game 2

You’re leaving out one major issue. Size and rebounding. Thats why Denver won the game.

Are you always this dense? Who is blaming NBA for game losses?

I made a generic comment that if all the top seeds lose then people will look at reg season - which many already say is too long - as less important - seeding will matter less, and could turn away some fans. Viewership is already down for many years.

Learn to read and comprehend. Or just keep trolling it doesn’t matter to me. Stop being a Karen

Seems like you’re advocating for the NBA to step in on behalf of OKC. People already view the regular season that way so the only upside to doing this would be to benefit your team.

The Nuggets beating the 1 seed Thunder will have no effect on the NBA, regular season or otherwise.

Another failure to read its all the top seeds not OKC. Top seeds is more than 1. Really hard to have convo’s here lol.

If seeding doesn’t matter then more teams will rest players and then fans miss out when paying bog money to attend games. Basically devalues reg season

Its hard to get thru to the OKC haters assuming everything is about them.

There was a 2 game difference separating the 2 and 5 seeds in the West plus the Nuggets 2nd and 3rd best players missed nearly 50 games. In the East the top 4 seeds are the final 4 seeds in the tournament including last years ECF participants so your logic doesn’t make any sense.

were you always this much of a douche or just since the thunder got good? You are aware they lost in 2nd last year as a 1 seed right? And nobody cared then either

The regular season couldn’t possibly be minimized further than it already is
