Sucks OKC going out like this

Minny the better matchup against Denver though

 

[don ramon]

tough matchup for okc today

Denver about to smoke these dudes

5 games max

i don't know about 5. it's gonna be a good, physical series

 

[QU!K]

Giddey is tall and can pass and seems to have no other NBA skills.

Would you rather have Josh Giddey or Scottie Barnes?

 

[reconic supreme]

Yeah, OKC should've gotten Dwight or something lol

This no center thing is bonkers

Especially with what denver looked like the last 10 or so games

Scottie.

Scottie is insanely overrated defensively on ball, but he at least does some good stuff off ball.

Giddey is pretty bad on and off ball.

 

[osh kosh bosh]

Proof that rebounding is a skill. Wiggins doesn’t and giddey does

Well not a fair comparison.

Wiggins plays basketball for cardio unless it's the NBA finals.

Minny beating the Nugs in 6.

Bet money

Yogurt and Kat vs Joker is interesting. They’ve at least got the size and strength to compete.

 

[Blue Mamba]

Might’ve saved himself from the off-season trade block

 

[osh kosh bosh]

I think just about any team has a punchers chance against Denver given how bad their playoff defense usually is.

And given the bugs over performed their point differential in a weak west.
They are probably a relatively weak 1 seed.

But with Anthony Edwards a little up and down and Minnesota playong two traditional bigs.

I think the wolves are actually a pretty okay matchup for Denver.

Now people want to be Rudy believers

This is crazy

 

[VARNELL HILL]

So Shai's out but Giddey gets to stay in throwing up ******** huh?

Aight man

If McDaniels and Reid we're healthy I would give Minnesota a legitimate shot to push Denver. Without those two Denver is going to win in five games

Rudy can quiet a lot of people if he makes Jokic have a bad series.

 

[B Sox]

Joker gets to relax on Goober. Gordon can guard KAT. Not a bad matchup for Denver at all.

 

[pmatic]

A-Rod downgraded from J-Lo.

 

[Blue Mamba]

I don’t think NT would know what to do with themselves

 

[don ramon]

arod all up in that lutefisk

 

[QU!K]

Like Duncan Robinson money?

 

[osh kosh bosh]

Prophetic vision of the future.

 

[pmatic]

Joker gets to relax on Goober. Gordon can guard KAT. Not a bad matchup for Denver at all.

Conley gonna put Jokic in pick and roll. Probably just gonna lead to Gobert dunks/fouls or Conley floaters.

I’d buy this but the nuggets were trending downward as of late. Bad enough for Malone to call them out. Still think they win but the twolves will put up some resistance
