00:00the thing that stands out for me with the thunder series with the nuggets is i think they are

00:04um at an advantage based on their youth believe it or not i think experience

00:10leans denver fair enough but i think they look tired to me and they you know played a big series

00:17before this and then now you're seeing them they look gassed yesterday at times in my opinion and

00:23oak city doesn't have that issue at all they're young they can play all day they can play every

00:31day they can play back to back they do it all year long and then in the playoffs they give them a day

00:36off okay which benefits them even even further and i think that at some level to me this is glaring and

00:44i think that it gives them an edge frankly going into paycom i think they're going to win that game

00:51and at some level when it's all said and done denver's best shot might be believe it or not

00:58in a game seven with the experience of you know because i think denver will go home and hold court

01:06based on joker gordon and murray that that trifecta right there along with you know porter brown and it

01:16goes on and on westbrook i think they'll hold court in six seven it comes down to can the young

01:24thunder team that was the best team in the nba handle the moment of a game seven on their home

01:30floor or are they going to gag on a spoon i think they'll win five and you know what it would behoove

01:37them to go to denver and win again because i think in a game seven the young team could crumble i think

01:43they're better than the nuggets though i really do yeah i i think it's catching up with them a bit

01:48you know let's remember the nuggets fired their coach with what four or five games left in the regular

01:54season uh you know they they then had to play hard in all those games because they wanted to secure

02:01home court in the first round and be the four seed which they ended up doing then they played

02:05seven games with the clippers they've now played four games here tough physical games with the thunder

02:10yeah yeah and the thunder you know they didn't play a game with any kind of sweat for the last three

02:17months of the regular season they wanted four in the first round and it's just natural that they've

02:23got a little bit more in the tank and they're deeper too let's not forget that they bring more

02:28guys in off the bench so the longer this goes they play better defense too uh so the longer this goes

02:36is it's not going to be very good for them

02:45you
