00:00all the stakes and everything on the line for sunday drs we don't need series odds anymore

00:06we have reached the distance we only need a series spread and basically a series money line

00:13we'll look at the total as well minus 295 that's the price for the thunder to win this second round

00:20series in advance to the western conference finals oklahoma city just a seven and a half

00:27point favorite at home in game number seven why is that critical oklahoma city in the three previous

00:33home games for the thunder in this series have been at least a double digit favorite now it's only

00:41seven and a half yeah and that tells you a lot right there because anything can happen in a game

00:47number seven and that's what we love about basketball and also this isn't just any time like okc is not

00:52like ben we've been here time and time again in game sevens you see these two rings we have from

00:58the past four years we're used to this they're not this is a high leverage situation they're the

01:03number one seed yes but what are they doing round number one i'm not knocking them they had an absolute

01:07sweep against memphis grizzlies that's what you're supposed to do but that wasn't like okay we are in

01:12a seven game series in round number one we're used to the pressure and now you're coming into a game

01:16number seven with a team that just a few years ago won an nba championship with maybe the best player in

01:21the world do you think the denver nuggets like all right house money at this point didn't think

01:25we'd get this far no they expected to get this far that's why they fired their coach and their

01:29general manager because the expectations weren't holding up to the results that they thought they

01:33were supposed to get from 2024 to 2025 and now you find themselves in the game seven is anybody loving

01:38to bet okc at seven and a half points in a game number seven against denver now granted ben we talked

01:44about game number two which was a home game which was a blowout for okc i'm not envisioning that

01:48games get tighter things get more tense every single possession matters at this point now the

01:53only thing i'm going to watch to see is the health status of jamal murray and how much rest he's going

01:58to get because keep in mind yesterday ben was a thursday typically you would play on a saturday

02:02right so now we're taking a look at another extension of a game till sunday that helps out the denver

02:07nuggets to be more rested more ready and more prepared in that game i love where we're going here on a

02:12sunday afternoon i'm fantastic that we get to talk about it here on a friday
