Hard to tell with this squad tbh. If Derozan and LMA's long 2s dont hit, it's gonna be a blowout for the Nuggs. Look at how Jokic got his easy points, by driving and bulldozing to the rim. There's also a factor where Belli and Gay don't show up

Bottom line, if this Rudy Gay shows up the Spurs at least have a chance. If he sucks again, they probably don't.

Agreed. But there is extra pressure is definitely on Denver to win a game 7. Lose and they will be overrated but win and they were supposed to beat a lowly 7 seed. In any event even if the Spurs lose, they did well to force a game 7 as flawed as the roster is. Not sure if that says something good about the Spurs or something badly about the Nuggets lol

Considering we have only played 3 since 2008, it is not like the length of time since a road game 7 win is actually relevant. And we were extremely competitive in all 3 of those, winning the one in 08. If anything, it means we are due for a win.

Didn't even notice this till the end but... apparently the key to a victory is Bertans. DNP (even though he played very little). Who'd of thought? I really think SA has a shot. No more than this time do I get the feeling it's anyone's game 7. Pressure is on Denver for sure. After the thrashing of SA recently there's no way they thought it would be a "next" game. Spurs pull off the series, 105-101. Kinda feels like the year we beat the Hornets in g7. Next game were up 20 on the Lakers in the first half then it all went to shit and got smoked by LA.

Just let it fly, tbh. They've got zero pressure on them.

04-25-2019, 10:05 PM
I'm leaning Nuggets, but unsure yet. I will say though, the Spurs' path to victory is essentially a repeat of game 1: Hope the Nuggets come out jittery and that enough of a lead can be built to where, when they inevitably find their footing, the Spurs can hang on for dear life and survive.

Too difficult to predict with these streaky, erratic teams, but the Spurs best shot will be if Denver succumbs to the pressure, as TD21 said..
My fear is that Poetl and White will be in foul trouble all game..

Tough to see this Spurs team winning a G7 on the road.
I think we keep it close for 3 quarters and then succumb to a barrage of late threes in the face of Pet Wombat..

Things giving me hope:
1. This will be the young Nuggets’ first playoff Game 7 and they will be facing a ton of pressure.
2. Our boys have regained their swagger after a dominant Game 6.
3. The pace will slow considerably and it will be a battle of halfcourt execution. The Spurs win that battle every time.

I wish. That'd be beautiful.
I'm afraid Spurs will be easily beaten by Denver. Defense is still bad, Nuggets are scoring at will and Popovich isn't trying anything different so Spurs depend on repeating an unprecedent shooting efficiency in 1on1 actions infront of a hostile crowd in a game7 and conditioned refereing.
Sadly, my prediction is closer to a blowout than a visitant win. I hope to be wrong.
I have no problem with our guys losing a game7 on the road, it's a worthy end of the season.

Murray might not be 100% after that blow from Poeltl (if I remember well Nash broke a thigh that way).
BTW the Malone crying thing and sending tapes to the league about SA screens might work to their advantage, but also ours.

Denver has an easier path to victory for sure. Despite the loss today, they still scored something like 70 pts in the paint. Compare that to the Spurs who hit an insane amount of mid-range shots tonight(like 20 out of 30). It's more likely that the Nuggets will continue to score at will against our shitty defense than it is for the Spurs to continue hitting those difficult jumpers. The Spurs also scored 10 threes...which probably isn't happening again.

Slightly favor the Nuggets. Hoping for a close one. Nuggets might be really tight. 2 seed is never supposed to lose in round 1..
Denver is a 5.5 point favorite.

Yet another moment when Parker hit the game-winner.
Big question -- Have the Spurs' American iso-ballers turned the corner on Denver's foreign legion (Jokic and Murray)?
(I got a kick out of putting it that way.)

I have zero confidence that good Gay is gonna show up.
As for my prediction, bench players won't be the reason we lose this game, the 22m and 27m players respectively will be the reason we lose.
Denver role players will be better at home and Derozan will shrink again under pressure plus LMA nonchalant play and thats how we get our L.

What was the line on the Spurs winning before Game 1? I think we've seen that it depends on which Spurs team shows up. The Spurs can beat Denver. They can also lose by 20.
I have zero confidence that good Gay is gonna show up.

"As per my prediction"? Who the fuck talks like that?
Rudy Gay making shots was the difference in Game 6. If he failed to make shots, would he be the "reason" the Spurs lost? I don't know. I don't care. If he knocks down a bunch of 3's in Game 7, the Spurs have a shot. Beli making a bunch of 3's would help, but he can't defend shit. Rudy is going to get substantial minutes. So he's the one who needs to be knocking down some shots.

If the Spurs come out strong and build a good lead it might be tough for Denver to handle the pressure. Even though they're one of the best teams in the league in crunch time, I think in a game 7, playing from behind, will be tough for the Nuggets.
Conversely, if the Spurs fall behind early, it could be rough for the good guys because Denver's young guys will loosen up and play great being fueled by their fans.
As a Spurs fan I'm going to go with SA....117 to 106.

If we go old school Phx and let Jokic go off, a la Stupidmire, while containing the rest by not double teaming, we have a strong chance. Also Gay needs to have a similar offensive performance to game 6. If those two things happen, Spurs by 10+. If neither happens, no need to even watch the 4th Q, as it wil be game 5 redux.
