Bron is tired at 40, and people question his greatness…but Jokic is tired and needs his help. You must stop moving the goal post.

What a great game. Two MVP candidates are on display at an incredibly high level of play, intensity, tactical front and back. OKC will not stop in defense. It’s suffocating.

I was important to Mark Deen in this series, but he pulled all the right strings in the fourth. Confined to Lu Dort, he continued for a long time with Jaylin Williams. He gave SGA a breather to start the quarter and also gave him juice for the finish.

It’s a sin to ruin such a joke masterpiece

The Nuggets now have lost three of the past four postseason games where Nikola Djokic has not rested in the fourth quarter, except for one of the games that enter the fourth quarter.
They’re losing those quarters by an average of 10.8 points.

As I said all year round:
Calvin Booth’s cost will make both the MVP and the shots in another title jokic.
The rest of the NBA should send him a thank you card for allowing the rest of the league to have a chance.

The incredible from OKC removes games like his absolute best jokic.
The nerves and clutch trembling we saw in Games 1+3 disappeared in these last two.
This is the best test this team could face. They answered the phone. special.

We look back in six weeks and realize that OKC vs Den was the best series of the year
