What i said the other day about OKC reminding me of Boston with the ignorant 3 ball... applied to DEN tonight.

When the shots are falling, they look invincible. That was pretty much the difference these last 2 games.

One thing I'm seeing about OKC that can be exploited is that their half court offense is shaky when you slow them down
And their 3 point defense is also shaky

Jaylen isn't a consistent 2nd best player

This game was only alil close because Dort hit like 8/9 treys

SGA gon wear down come 2nd Rd of the playoffs again but again I think this was Chet 1st back 2 back games he's played this season, so he may step up

JDub going down & the Nuggets shooting 58% from 3 isn't a recipe for success as it turns out :jbhmm:

Dug a hole at the start of the 4th trying a Wallace, Caruso, Dort, Wiggins, & Chet lineup that couldn't score while they just kept making all the 3s.

Ain't he just say they don't need to make changes a week ago :mjlol:

Earlier in season he said this is the deepest team he ever coached too lol



Spo the best coach of this era learned him again got that cac deflated rethinkin it all :mjcry:

Meanwhile Spo somehow got a Tyler Herro led Heat team at 20-17 record and 6 seed. Warriors got the best player of the 2 and a better deeper roster. No Jimmy drama missin most season either which should be affectin team. Switch coaches and shyt would be a lot different for both.

Not that it a surprise to nikkas payin attention we seen Spo somehow take a team wit Josh Richardson most games and minutes played to playoff wit a rotation of Dragic, Tyler Johnson, Ellington, James Johnson, Olynyk, Justice Winslow, Whiteside and Dion Waiters.

Spo learned Kerr again a week or so back. Best coach of his generation :manny:
Spo makin Tyler fukking Herro look like 2004 Peja Stokajovic is fukking insane brehs. 16pts on 100% shootin in 1st quarter :picard:

20-18 wit Jimmy missin most season fukkin up chemistry and 6 seed is just wild. Best coach of his generation by far no one can do more wit less and he did it wit talented teams that was post to win and dominate too
Bu-bu-but Spo doing this; bu-bu-but Spo doing that.

All your agendas fall flat on their face in the end.

:picard:

Missing half the season probably messed up Chet's development/role on the team a bit because pre-hip injury he appeared to be their 2nd best player and had early DPotY caliber play but from what i've seen since his return he's #4 in importance behind SGA and Jalen/Hartenstein as 2a/2b.

IHart is their Draymond that allows SGA and JDubb to take a Curry and Klay role but with more drives than 3 balls. The synergy with those 3 + Dort as their "iguodala" is seamless. But kinda leaves Chet tryna figure out where he fits while playing himself back into shape.
