00:00The Thunder DRS up 3-2 in this series and a four and a half point road favorite in game six, a total that stands at 217 and a half.
00:09We broke down this game earlier to end out hour number two.
00:13We do so once again here in hour number three to set the stage for this Thursday evening.
00:18DRS, you've been pretty solidified in your stance that you think the Nuggets can do enough to win this game on their own home floor to force a decisive winner take all game seven.
00:29For a spot in the Western Conference Finals.
00:33If so, how does Denver get that done getting four and a half points at home tonight?
00:37It's got to be the big boys, man.
00:39It's got to be Nikola Jokic with a monster game.
00:41It's got to be Jamal Murray stepping up.
00:42You got to get the Christian Browns of the world chipping in with, you know, double digit points here.
00:46Low teens.
00:47You got to get Russell Westbrook on that energy coming off the bench to give you one of those 12, six and six type performances through about 25 to 30 minutes here.
00:55You need all hands on deck.
00:56And also you need OKC to be a little bit off.
00:58Why? Because it's a better team.
01:00Like if both of these teams bring their A game, it's going to be OKC.
01:03B game, C game, it's going to be OKC.
01:05You need to play your A game while Oklahoma City is playing your B, maybe C plus type of situational game with Shea Gildress Alexander.
01:12You tell me before the game starts, Shea Gildress Alexander's at 24 points.
01:16Yeah, Denver's going back for a game number seven at OKC.
01:19That's the way I see it playing out.
01:20Now we look at the point spread in this, right?
01:22We say to ourselves, OK, you're probably asking for Denver to win.
01:25Before enough is a big enough margin where late game heroics, three point shot goes down, you know, one, two or three shot at the buzzer.
01:32You don't make it.
01:32You lose by two.
01:33I get that.
01:34But I am going to be hard pressed to say, I don't know if OKC can walk into Denver tonight.
01:39Should I say I'll be surprised?
01:41And they win by double digits.
01:42Like if OKC wins, fine, two, four, six, eight points, that makes some sense.
01:47But for Denver to be at home tonight and get pasted by double digits, I just don't see that.
01:52So that's why I think the Denver Nuggets have a legitimate chance.
01:55And would I be surprised in the fourth quarter if the Nuggets have the lead?
01:58No, that's what the anticipation is.
01:59They had the lead in game number five of a pivotal game, which, you know, the winner of game number five is what?
02:04Like 80% of the playoffs, they end up winning the rest of that series.
02:07So upper hand OKC, but I think you're going to get a great punch tonight, and I gladly take the points tonight with the Denver Nuggets.
