    nuggets will knock out the thunder in the playoffs

    round 1 the nuggets k.o the thunder! Not just because they beat the lakers I've though this for a while. I think people overrate the thunder. How can people talk about them as making the finals? As if they could beat the lakers to get there they wouldnt even beat the spurs to make the conference finals.

    if you had said it a month ago you would have had credibility, now that we've all seen what denver can do your thread is just stating a very likely scenario

    yeah you think denver can beat oklahoma, you and every other sheep on this forum that decides to be an expert after the fact

    new york will be facing teams with superstars too, so it wont matter

    Westbrook is not a superstar, but a low level Allstar.

    I most probably did say it at least 2-3 weeks ago fool. Who are you exactly and what credibility do you have aside from being notorious for losing your bank roll like 99 percent of sheep on here?

    btw it wasn't that clear a month ago they would be playing each other and it's still not. I would have tipped them to if it looked that way sooner I backed the nuggs to beat the celtics when they just traded and put 1000 on them I wouldnt have did so if i didnt rate them I even made a post about it. You mention stating the obvious take a leaf out of your own book.

    I got 3 teams going to Final:
    1. Spurs
    2. Bulls
    3. Thunder

    Haven't placed prop bets yet, waiting for first round to be over.
    Why am I telling you this? I need witnesses.

    don't think Nuggets will beat Thunder. Wouldn't be surprised if Thunder win the whole thing.

    Taking the Nuggets to win the West in playoffs props, once it starts. If they make it to the Western conference Finals, then I could do a big hedge.

    I prefer the Nuggets taking the Spurs in the 2nd round instead of the Lakers, so hopefully SA clinches it all. Nuggets is definitely more than capable of beating both Spurs and Thunders in a 7 game series.

    My inner Swami told me Duncan will see more minutes during playoffs and DeBlair will not suck.

    Pop been giving his bench a lot of mins lately, but it'll change once playoffs start. He's not stupid. Good D wins games.

    Nuggets are solid. they may not have superstars but have the potential to upset any team in NBA.

    I can see the Nuggets beating the Spurs, Mavs and taking the Lakers to a 7 game series if any of the scenarios are possible.

    i took denver at +12500 on 3/9. Then both my books took down the futures. Wondering what nugs sit at right now to win it all for other books?

    In the playoffs I think they'll struggle against Boston, Orlando, and a fully equipped SA.

    I thhink it will be very interesting matchup and nuggets are really dangerous, but OKC have 2 superstars and it iss big advantage.

    What I like most of all is seeing the Nuggets starting to win big road games like they never did with melo. They are no longer playing like b*tches. Would LOVE to see the nugs continue this streak to the end and take the NW title

    Nugs are so much more likable without Melo. Just think how far they have come since they had Iverson and Melo in the backcourt. A lot of people thought that would make them a legit contender. Well, it turned out getting rid of both of them make them a contender!

    Last time I checked, The Nuggets were a contender just 2 years ago WITH MELO, as they made it to the Western Confernce finals... Until this team can do that, they won't be contenders...

    The Nuggets have been impressive after the trade. I believe they can do it.

    exactly. I think they can beat the thunder but as for being contenders? no way. They wouldn't even make the finals let alone win it.

    Nuggets played horrendous at home today, and made it interesting at the end. The looked flat footed after a huge win on Sunday. Looking for them to cover in OKC though.

    Lol at this thread. Never trust someone that can barely put sentences together.

    The Nuggets will not beat the Thunder in a 7 game series.

    The Nuggets bench didn't look good defensively because both of their bigs Birdman and Mosgov were out. The Thunder's interior ate Denver alive when Nene and Kenyon was resting. Nuggets will be fine, unless they get blown out on Friday in Oklahoma.
