If you feel the Denver Nuggets can win this series,
00:03
you're going to take home a plus 610 price.
00:05
If you just like the favorite to move on,
00:07
break out the checkbook, minus 900 for OKC
00:11
to take on the Denver Nuggets in this series.
00:14
So again, Joe, I will ask you, from a price point here,
00:17
anything shocking with those numbers,
00:19
or are they price appropriate?
00:22
Well, I mean, given what we have seen from both of these teams
00:26
and when you match up the rosters,
00:28
I mean, it's hard to ignore the fact that Oklahoma City
00:31
pretty much does not have a lot of holes on its roster here.
00:35
They've got depth, they've got shooters, they've got speed,
00:38
they've got toughness.
00:40
They have guys that can defend the Joker,
00:43
where many teams don't.
00:46
This is an uphill battle for the Denver Nuggets,
00:49
make no mistake about it.
00:51
And OKC is a deserved favorite of this number
00:55
from what we've gotten from them.
00:57
However, it's the playoffs.
00:59
And we all know anything can happen.
01:02
And one of these teams has a ring on their finger,
01:06
the other team doesn't.
01:07
And that definitely matters in these games coming up.
01:12
Now, if we are looking at the series,
01:14
like an extended series,
01:15
which means more than four games, hopefully,
01:17
that gentleman sweep coming in as a favorite here,
01:19
plus 198.
01:20
Am I crazy?
01:21
Because, look, Denver is a good team.
01:23
You play off basketball, you're going head to head.
01:25
And it's not as if it's like, hey, hey, Joe, man,
01:27
what are you going to do?
01:28
OKC is, you know, rolling again the playoffs,
01:30
three straight championships.
01:31
This is what they do.
01:32
We haven't seen the OKC Thunder advance, advance, advance,
01:36
and win championships just yet.
01:38
At every level you level up,
01:39
it does get a little bit tougher.
01:41
And also, OKC did have an easy time,
01:43
technically, with the Memphis Grizzlies.
01:44
But also, there were close games there on the road
01:46
without John Morant.
01:47
Am I crazy to think that I can get this
01:49
to a game number six
01:50
and take the two and a half games
01:52
with the Denver Nuggets?
01:55
Yes.
01:56
You can, because you've got to believe
01:59
the best player on the court
02:01
is still on the Denver Nuggets.
02:03
I mean, and not OKC,
02:05
not taking away from, you know,
02:07
SGA and everybody else,
02:09
but the reality is
02:10
the Joker's the best player on the court.
02:13
The most experience and success on that court
02:16
is on the Denver side.
02:18
So does that mean that they're going to win
02:21
a couple of games?
02:23
No, but it also ain't going to be what we just saw.
02:26
I don't think it's going to be Oklahoma City
02:28
by 30 every game either, you know?
02:30
So to me, this is all about,
02:32
can the Denver Nuggets
02:34
finally get this OKC team to sweat, Donnie?
02:37
Can they do it?
02:38
If you think they can,
02:40
and yeah, you might be worth taking a flyer here
02:44
with the underdog Denver Nuggets.
