Inside the NBA PREVIEWS OKC vs Nuggets Playoff Series 🔥

on the old coaches. Oh, Barkley. Uh, oh, my bad. Penny’s mom, you’re right. That’s the ugliest person I would kiss. No, he didn’t. He kissed you. That’s Well, that’s the same thing. Two people kissing, they kissing each other. No, he didn’t kiss you. I didn’t kiss. That was I was trying to bite your big apple head or candy apple. It do look like a little candy. Okay, you ready? Oh, here we go. Sunday night on TB on TBI, we got Blues against on TBS match. Yeah, it is. We got the Blues against the Winnipeg Jets. Game seven tomorrow night. Cannot wait. Mr. Helen Buck, you got to do it tomorrow. You going to win the Vesna trophy, but we need you to come up big tomorrow night. And where’s that going to be streaming? Uh on Max. And hey, Mark Shley, I hope you’re able to play. I know it’s a game time decision, but good luck. Going above and beyond on a uh full screen promo, but that’s what you do. Um, now it’s the Nuggets and the Thunder. They open the season facing each other. They split 2-2. SGA along the way had a 40point game in a Thunder win. Joker had a couple of triple doubles. One of those a 23 20 and 16 job. Um, and in their last 16 games, these two teams are eight and eight. How you uh how you seeing it, Jet? It it’s interesting that two guys who are the best players have the advantage every night. Um you know Shay Gildrick Alexander his ability to score will be because of his size. You know maybe three four years ago a different Russell Brunbrook would be able to guard him on a on a nightly basis but I think he has the advantage. And the same thing on the other end Hartinstein and all those guys cannot guard the Joker. So this is be a series where everything goes through the main guys and you and you seen the numbers that they had during the regular season 30 and then a triple double basically for Joic. So I’m expecting this to be more of a starladen series and both teams are similar to the point that if you start messing around helping out on the main guy he gets rid of it. you know, uh, SJA gets rid of it to one of my favorite players, Jay Dub and all the other is on the three-point line. Denver, you know, as we saw tonight, Joker didn’t have a great game, but he was looking for everybody. So, they’re similar, but I’m leaning towards Denver. Oo. Are you really? Yes. Because I I’m Russ is um I’d like to see Russ get a championship and Joker being part of the Big Man Alliance. He’s the vice going through Oklahoma City. Russell Westbrook. I I listen in order and Kenny, you know this and you also know this. In order to be the best, you have to beat the best. So, this will be a good challenge for them. But I’m leaning towards Denver. That which way you leaning? I’m not leaning. I’m going OKC. I I have not seen anything in the Western Conference to make me think anybody can beat OKC. And I think the difference is you’re going to see this for the first time. The Denver has not did anything with their bench. Oklahoma City probably has the best bench in the NBA. Uh, I think that’s going to be a huge difference this series. I mean, Denver, they they don’t have a bench. They just really it’s just rough. Watson came in and played well tonight, but those boys from Oklahoma City, they benched they’ve been to have the best bench in NBA all season long. Yeah. Averaged averaged 35 against Memphis in that uh four game sweep. Uh, meantime, Denver moves on and this was David Adelman in the locker room afterwards. Everybody came in contributed. It was incredible. Everything we did, you did so hard. And I thought the smallest things, stunting after shrinking, the small things, the zone, just how active we were throughout the whole game, man. Defensively, absolutely incredible. And a bunch of guys in here made enormous shots. They were full rotating of people. The open man won throughout the night. Everybody stepped up confidently. Okay. Really proud of you. We know what this is, man. Unbelievable series against a really good team. We won the series. Congratulations. Okay, now we go to OKC tomorrow. And now the thing restarts. So enjoy this tonight. Enjoy this. You have to enjoy these successes. Okay. We get on the plane tomorrow. We land at OKC. That’s when we start thinking about the Thunder. So proud to be part of this group. [Applause] team winning. Here we go. On 3 1 2 3 You guys exceeded a lot of the external expectations this season, but it always felt like all year long internally you guys had a lot bigger goals for yourself than what you know the outside expectations may have been. How do you kind of emotionally just take that all in at this point knowing that you guys did exceed a lot of expectations but at the same time didn’t go nearly as far as you wanted to? Yeah, I mean it’s hard because like I said when you lose the last game and you get eliminated, you know, it’s tough to think about all that, but like I said, for the guys, you know, um for everybody in that locker room who contributed and um in any way they did, I think it’s huge, you know, I think coming out supposed to win 35 games and, you know, we win 50 games and, you know, get to the fifth seed and play against a really good team, you know, and so we had our opportunities and then tonight, you know, say that was just a tough loss for us. So, I think everybody’s thinking about that right now. Um, because everybody in the locker room from coaches to players are great competitors. Aaron Gordon, one of six Nuggets with at least 15 points in this game. Never seen that in a game seven before. Six guys with at least 15. We’ll be back.

  1. OKC ain't that impressive after first round. It would have been 2-2 if Lu Dort didn't injured Ja

  2. Casuals desperately want SGA win this series and prove something (FT makes the MVP case, riiiiiight) and everyone forget Minnesota is toughest team to beat this year.

    I'm all for Joker and Nuggets, but this year is T-Wolves vs. Cavs.

  3. It’s very funny to see the same arguments being made again against Denver. Guys had clippers in 6 because bench-to-bench they were better than Denver, because line-up to line-up they were slightly better… and yet they got blown out twice by them. Russ as the 6th man with PWatt chipping in is more than enough to rotate around… why? Because we’ve already seen it happen infront of our own eyes!!! And as for the line-up differences and bad match ups, just look how Jok worked around Zubac, the only guy in the league that can defend him… very safe in my opinion to just say Denver in 6, more experienced team.

  4. Nuggets starters are going to have to play 40 min per game to have a chance, Okc are going to wear them down they are deeper.l, even if Jokic is better than SGA doesn't matter

  5. Hoping for OKC vs Cleveland in the finals , so tired of the same teams every year its time for something different.

  6. Denver ain't beating OKC. Clippers is just a bad team and they struggled with clippers 🤦🏾‍♂️

  7. OKC in 5 maybe 6. Jokic gonna have to average 40 for Denver. OKC is 10-12 deep. Denver maybe 6. Russ gonna try to hero ball which will be great for OKC. Russ will turn the ball over consistently. Game 1, rust vs fatigue.

  8. I've never seen a player be hated so much for having a smart GM actually build around his star player like SGA, I mean the resurgence of guys like Wiggins, Dort, Isaiah Joe is quite due to their hardwork and SGA's leadership.
