Denver Nuggets vs Oklahoma City Thunder Full Highlights 2nd Qtr | May 18 | 2025 NBA Highlights

is limited. In what ways do you need to step up to get this game? I think it’s everybody. It’s a group effort and it’s a game seven. Uh it’s a team sports when all five that are on the court play really well. Most of us. All right, Lisa. Turnovers which can absolutely crush you against OKC lead to an easy bucket down the other end. And the Thunder within one. Strawther has come on. Strawther certainly a hero in game six. Tough pass from Brown. Watson bounces off Joseph Alexander with a rebound. This is the minutes that you’re worried about is not only the non Joic minutes but also no Jamal Murray who is about to check back into the game. Arinstein tips it out. Jay Williams the drive banks it all shots with more. Let’s go to Lisa. Yeah Mike. Uh he said that he thought his performance on Thursday just cost the team the game. His goal for today was just to come out and just play with a completely new attitude. and he said, “You’re not going to play perfectly every game.” He knows that. He just wants to continue to do the right things and he’s just so happy that he feels the support. Uh he feels like the team has rallied around him and uh he says, “I still believe in myself and that’s the most important thing.” Well, Lisa’s one of the best two-way players in the NBA and all-star season as Denver turns it over again. That’s six turnovers again. Again, so costly against this Thunder team and two of them already are by the young player Straw. These are the moments where you have a first half. Oh, Hartinstein on the follow. And Murray back in. They cannot afford to have them on the bench for long. Murray fires away. Shot the air ball. Murray just one for four to [Applause] start. Door to Wiggins. Wide open as Wiggins and Westbrook the rebound. OKC would be up by a lot more, but they’ve really struggled from three. Gordon tries the three. Got it. Gordon with his second field goal and he’s back in the game. SGA currently on the [Applause] bench. Martinstein calling for a little give and go. Finds its way all the way to the other side of the court. Shot clock at [Applause] seven. Three on the 24. Wiggins off the bounce, pulls back, gets it off in time, and rattles it home. That’s a big shot by Wiggins. Even though Aaron Gordon is knocking down three, he’s rebounding. I’m worried about his sprint capability. At one point in time in this game, it doesn’t matter if it’s a close out or a fast break, he’s going to have to sprint full speed. Straw well short, knocked out. Then Strother magnificent in game six at home. Little different story sometimes when you come on the road in this [Applause] atmosphere, but they’re not here perhaps if he doesn’t play like that in game six. Oxstein Joic. [Applause] So what a whirlwind he’s had since taking over for Michael Malone. As Joic way off, coached three games in the regular season. He’s already coaching his second game seven. Wiggins wide open. Fight for the rebound. Dort saves it back out to Caruso. D off the bounce. Wiggins. Corner three. D almost took it away, but Murray able to grab it. Michael Porter fires away well short. Yic got away with a grab there. Now it’s the Nuggets who’ve gone cold. Good defense from Westbrook. Playoffs in minutes per game. 41 and a half. Joic is 50 in minutes per game. Over [Applause] [Music] 40. Shot clock at five. Wiggins beyond the arc. Can’t get it to go. Porter the rebound. And here comes [Applause] Gordon. Caruso is really making it difficult on Elkage trying to overpower him and he does with the foul. Continues to back down on him. Mike, that’s tough. I get it. When Jookic is at the three-point line, it’s easy to have a smaller player, especially at that free throw line. But once he starts to back down, you’re going to need help to come over. takes the three now puts it on the on the floor. Caruso chased off the line. Dort his corner three. That’s good. Suddenly the Thunder knocked down a couple of threes. They’re back up by three. Ball stolen. Lot of contact. Caruso goes inside. David Alman upset as is Gordon who thought they should have in a foul call. Another costly turnover for the Nuggets. [Music] Brown left wide open, puts it up and puts it in. Christian Brown has come to play today. 12 points here in the first half. Well, and he’s coming off a big game. He’s got to be more aggressive in these moments. He is the one player that can be an outlier. Jaylen Williams passed up the three. Gord’s going to try again. Can’t get it. called batted out. Home room got a piece of that. SGA important a chance to go to his first conference final. Goes one of two from the line. And for many of the Thunder players, it’s the biggest game of their young careers. They have responded after a slow start. Back up by three. Murray. Wallace right with him. Murray can’t get to the fall. Gordon another rebound. Porter steps back. This three-pointer can’t get it [Applause] [Music] before wide open three. Gordon grabs another rebound. Incredible. I I cannot get over he’s playing with a grade two strain. My expectation was what happened to Ojanobi for the Knicks last year. One sprint and he was done. He doesn’t have that normal lift. You can clearly see it, but he’s got seven rebounds. Brown fakes. Brown gets inside. Off balance, draws a foul on SGA. Jokic has Homegrren on him. Backs into a double team. Home is out of bounds. Yic upset. He thought the double team of the two bigs that time forcing the turnover. Eight turnovers for Denver. Jaylen Williams can’t get it to fall. Boy, the three-point shooting for both teams has been a huge struggle here in the first half. Brown, he can’t connect. Hartstein tips it, but right to Gordon. Gordon makes his move, gets inside again. More zone defense from Denver. Jaylen Williams to Caruso. Pass inside to Williams. Layup is good. Wow. If you go your smallest lineup of the night, neither Homegrren nor Hartstein and you still get two in the paint. Now Caruso has to guard Yokic again. This just got clocked on the top of the head. Pass inside. What a catch. Gets his offensive rebound. Goes back up. Stripped and stolen. L Do Williams. SGA on the drive. Gets inside. Layup won’t go. Westbrook tips it out to Gordon and Gordon. Eight of nine from the free throw [Applause] line. SGA gets inside. Triple T. Wallace gets a clean look. Can’t get the fall.
