overrated? People said they wouldn't make the playoffs without Melo, and yet they improved in all areas.
They will win the next 4 by at least double digits.
Nuggets are so overrated it's not even funny. How you expect them to win 4 vs us...unbelievable.

btw, i hope you know i am just playin'![]()
The Thunder are a good team and the Nuggets do miss star power, but i am confident they can play better.
The Thunda looks really good. Nice balance. I ain't crowning they ass yet though. They still have to go through Staples to get to where they want to be.
Should be a fun WCF. The champs won't be denied though. Book it.![]()
You crapped out, Nuggy.
It's 4 in-a-row, or, a Game 7 in Oklahoma.
That's it, and that's all.
Yeah not saying Nuggets are bad either...judging by what the Vegas Lines are the next two games should be close.
"at least double digits"?
How much will they win by at best?
BTW I agree the Nuggets are still underrated. An ESPN commentator (don't remember who) said "The Nuggets have a chance to turn decades of conventional wisdom on its ear" when it comes to playoff success without a superstar.
Actually, it's not like that hasn't been done before, the 2004 Pistons were a team of "non-stars." The difference there though was they made a few deeps runs in the playoffs and their defense was so fierce it kind of became the star and iden y of the team.
Don't think they'll get past OKC but there's no shame in that -- OKC is a great team.
Yep, all Denver has to do is actually do it.
Chop, chop.
in before game 3 win by denver...i think they keep it compe ive..or should at least LOL

up 3-0...
okc is david sterns team
OKC is just the best team in the West...not saying much though.
*Yawn* Next!
Not trying to hate, but the NBA screwed Denver out of 1 game.....just sayin'.
2 games
game 1 and 5.......both should have been wins for Denver
OKC will go as far as Stern takes them
I'm a fan but I don't see anyone beating the Lakers. Sorry. OKC could make it interesting though.
OKC could definitely beat them.
Ron Artest is all over Durant. Not a good matchup for OKC as proven by last year.
Hats off man, I don't care for JR Smith in the slightest (heard he's actually trying to cry his way out of Denver but it's just hearsay) and K-Mart overdoes the tough guy/nutty role at times (and has since he was in NJ), but I like all of the guys you got from the Knicks and think you have a bright future. Too bad AA was injured to start the series.![]()
Nowhere near the same Thunder team. KD is coming into his (early) prime while Ron is another year older. Perkins gave them the toughness they lacked, and it's paid dividends in the defensive department.
The most overlooked aspect of that team is James Harden's insane play since Jeff Green was traded. Harden is killing it, on both ends of the floor. Add to that a battle-tested big for depth (Nazr), and they've got every piece needed to knock off the Lakers.
That lineup they had at the end: Durant, Westbrook, Harden, Perkins, and Ibaka...is almost unfair. Perfect mix of offense, defense, and rebounding. They're all 26 or under too![]()
What they do to Denver is irrelevant of the matchups with LA. I stand by my thinking of OKC not matching up well with LA and will struggle to score.
It all depends on Ron...if he stays out of foul trouble you may be right.
Better effort tonight from the future champs.
