00:00all right so steph uh denver and oklahoma city dare i say should we just check back in game seven

00:06because it feels like that's where we're headed here at this point they're just trading body blows

00:09uh you know last night oklahoma city got the better of denver but by the way denver played

00:14well in this game too so it seems like they're just very evenly matched okc wins last night

00:19shea gilgis alexander has a nice game 25 points six rebounds six assists but the odds makers i

00:27want to show you this uh steph the odds makers are saying that the that the nuggets have no shot

00:32to win this series they are plus 460 on the fan duel sportsbook plus 460 so what am i missing here i

00:40mean is does okc just now win the next two and that's the way that this goes what why is this

00:44line what it is that's surprising to me too i mean i think that might be a reflection of you know the

00:52games that the nuggets have won they've really grinded it out and then you know the thunder

00:57blown the nuggets out and one of those games uh that nuggets defense sorry the thunder defense

01:03i think the most surprising part of this series is how much trouble they've given nikola yokic because

01:08we've seen yokic over the past couple years have every single type of defensive coverage thrown him

01:13every type of defender and he has dominated everybody but for whatever reason in this series

01:19i think isaiah hardenstein has done a really good job uh just the size that he has and chet holmgren

01:25also being there as a roamer to help contest some of those shots i mean we've seen that strategy before

01:31though with uh the lakers and that hasn't worked with them with anthony davis so it's just uh i think

01:37that the odds makers are just thinking that maybe the thunder figured something out against yokic and

01:41if that's the case i mean he drives so much of what that team does if you can slow him down then

01:46they're basically cooked

01:47they're basically cooked
