Haha that’s true but I think it was because he had 5 fouls. Still don’t know who to root for
In that series.

That is why we did not select him in the draft ...
Imagine MB reacting to this defence , he will freeze him till the end of his contract

I'm getting early Vivek vibes with this one

It is exactly like early Vivek lol
Been thinking the same thing as far as Ishbia and the Suns. Been thinking this for a long time actually, like when they dealt Bridges, who IIRC happened with Ishbia but I could be wrong on that. I think they have been put together very poorly…….i mean, they went in to this without a real PG
Exactly why Monte doesn't have to panic when our franchise pillars will be 24/27/28 next season. There's still time to develop this thing
I can always count on knowing who to root against, though. And, when in doubt, I will always root for the team that does not have Kyrie Irving on it.

The kings would have given the thunder a run for their money. Damn pelicans.......

I still disagree (very respectfully). I don't think we would have really had as significantly better of a chance against the Thunder than the Pelicans did at the end of the day. I still see the Thunder sweeping us, or winning 4-1. But I doubt playoff Kings would've been able to win any more than maybe 2 games against OKC. 4-0 or 4-1 would've still been my prediction, and I would've gladly stood by it 100%, just like I am at this very moment.
Keep in mind that, during the regular season:
Thunder against the Pelicans: 2-1
Thunder against the Kings: 2-2
And the point differential wasn't all that different. I think the Thunder match up equally as well against the Pelicans as they do against us.
Some of y'all (both on here and in the media) are very much so underestimating the OKC Thunder right now. This is, very much so, a Western Conference Finals-worthy team. Do I think they get past Denver? No. But I do think they get past either Dallas or the Paper Clippies. Also, in order to give credit where credit is due, should the Timberwolves manage to go all the way to the WCF, that is a series I'd be most interested in watching. That would be a tossup in my opinion.

I don't think Denver can make it all the way even to the Finals this season (the so called "World Series" I mean), they get zero contribution from their bench especially when it comes to offense and Murray doesn't look healthy. Reggie Jackson and KCP also are playing but they are hurt and the Lakers exposed some of their weaknesses despite the 3-0 early lead.

Dang, another absolute CLASSIC 4th quarter. I've really enjoyed this year's playoffs so far.

The only thing Im not enjoying about them is the Chet/SGA commercials with those awful leather jackets

And the league wonder why fans think the games are fixed.

that Wolves Nuggs series could be nuts. Can Gobert limit Joker? Murray vs Ant. Kat has been great in the playoffs so far, how does he fair against AG. Denver's bench is not very good. I dunno, could go either way

Not without Monk.....
Too bad - they f'd up on rebounding towards the end, and it cost em.
Not too impressed with Nuggets, but regardless Wolves/Nuggets is the best series of this season.
On the Wolves bandwagon for it.
