April 25: Playoffs Round 1, Thunder at Nuggets Game 4 - Message Board Basketball Forum

OKCThunderUP · 04-25-2011, 03:47 PM

OKC going for the kill shot tonight. I don't expect Denver to come out and get swept so I'm chalking this up as a loss right now. Hopefully the refs will let them play the damn game tonight. The two teams shot a combined 80 free throws or something like that on Saturday.

Nugs may win, but I don't think they have the capability to play D, so they better shoot the lights out

Nuggets won't want to get swept, so I could see them winning this one. I think the series is over, so it doesn't matter. It would be cool to see the Thunder sweep them, but no big deal if they don't.

Gotta be discouraging to be 0-5 against OKC in the last 2 weeks

I bet the Nugs go off and win it

I think the Nugs are done. OKC will be the only team to complete a sweep in the first round of the western conference.

Seems like Lawsom has been really quiet this series. I'd bet he does work tonight.

Notorious D.M.C · 04-25-2011, 04:41 PM

I hope so

Nuggets are done. It's not motivating to be getting ready to play a game whose reward is flying away from home to lose in front of the opposing team's fans.

sweep.. looking forward to the Avi

NuggetsFan · 04-25-2011, 05:22 PM

Probably a loss. I don't want to get swept. I was 100% wrong about this series either way but I'd like to see the Nuggets win tonight and maybe a steal a game against the Thunder on the road and make my prediction of OKC in 6 true

Plus I don't want to join NY as the only team getting swept.

Their D hasn't been the problem. Stop living in the past. The 6+ minute stretch in the fourth where they couldn't buy a bucket was the problem.

Doubt we win, but oh well. Hopefully some players like Gallo or Chandler show something.

They give good defensive effort (they run around some), but the Nugs aren't exactly matchup nightmares for us like say, Memphis with TA, Battier, Zac...etc.

We have won 5 in a row against the Nuggets, I think it may be their turn.

Ugh, I'm tired of hearing Dick Stockton, wish he would just give up the announcing. I'd rather hear Ian Eagle's enthusiasm.
