The Oklahoma City Thunder up by double digits for a good majority of the second half last night
00:05
including DRS up by 13 with fewer than six and a half minutes remaining. Nikola Jokic in the
00:12
Denver Nuggets had other ideas. Aaron Gordon a three with just about three ticks left in regulation
00:18
gives Denver a 121-119 win to steal game number one on the road in OKC outright as a 10 and a
00:28
half point underdog. Denver takes game number one against the Thunder. This isn't supposed to happen
00:33
particularly with a basketball team that just played a grueling seven game series finished in
00:38
elevation jumps on a plane and has to play the best overall team in the NBA and what happens in the
00:44
second half 35 points in the third quarter for Denver 36 points for Denver in the fourth quarter
00:50
for a 121-119 game. Now we'll talk about some things that happen at the end of the game with
00:54
the fouling situations whether you agree or not but my goodness you want to talk about a double
00:58

01:03
handicapping this game based on just adrenaline coming off of game seven nothing to lose rested
01:07
and ready OKC they're not ready for this smoke and quite frankly they should have won going away OKC
01:12
but the fact that one team crumbled and it wasn't the tired legs of the Denver Nuggets it was OKC
01:17
Ben that was the shocking point for me in that game.
