Chris Mannix is joined by GQ Sports contributor Howard Beck to preview Game 3 of the NBA Finals between Nikola Jokic and the Denver Nuggets vs. Jimmy Butler and the Miami Heat. They discuss whether Erik Spoelstra has found the winning formula after stealing Game 2 in Denver, whether the Nuggets are battle tested after a relatively easy path to the Finals.

Nuggets will still win
Heat have too many fan boys like the fakers
I hate when I see people who get paid to offer some expertise on sports give the lazy analysis of maybe they just wanted it more. Thanks for offering the same info that Joe down the block does. I can see why you make the big bucks.
Spo was frustrated cause he does not want to give any bulletin board material to Denver. Obviously that's what they want to do.
Stick to boxing and your side of the Mississippi River.
I disagree.
First point was 7-13 record when Joker has less than 8 assists. Meaning he had 62 games with more passes. It is not that easy to do this as people make it up to be.
To the next point, denver was +10 at some point, for most cases it very obviously did not work.
This is what Spo meant.
The media….Nuggets won game 1 = looks like it will be a sweep. Miami wins game 2 = Miami will win it all.
Spo is great he isn't a top 5 coach though wtf
Everyone wants to talk about how the Miami shooting is an anomaly. This is the same roster that was #1 in the league last season in 3 point shooting. This regular season was the real anomaly and this playoff run is who they really are.
How can anyone say for sure which of these teams will be the winner? Damn, it’s 1-1.
Saying "they made Jokic a scorer" is undermining everything they had to do to even make that possible and all the schemes Erik had to put together to get it like that. That's why he was mad.
The Heat was trying to contain Joker to 20 points and no assists…..nobody wants him to have over 40 period.
By the way, you might have a Tyler Herro game …..
Either team can win out or they can go seven and I will not be surprised. We have a fantastic finals!!!!! Hopefully it goes 7 and hopefully Miami wins. Let's go Heat!!
The Heat in 6.
Nuggets will show up next game
Disliked for straight up click bait. Denver still wins within 6, they were due a loss.
Crazy thing is that refs were helping little bit Miami and Denver played really bad defence at streches, and they still lost by only 3 points. Gm3 will be very interesting
