Bit of a shame, but feels like Nuggets lack of depth really hurt them. Didn't replace the important pieces they lost in last year's run and just burnt out all the starters. They'll need to make moves during the offseason and hope their young defensive guys also make a big offensive jump.
Wolves...
Mavs win game 6 and the series by 1 point right at the end.
I can't help but feel this is Giddey's last game for OKC. He's been mostly unplayable for them, but with another year on his contract, some other team might take a gamble on him. OKC have a whole bunch of picks they can package with him...
I guess the advantage for the Celtics would be coming into the finals quick and healthy, same as the Nuggets last season. Meanwhile the western conference is like going through a blender.
Hope the Nuggets beat the Wolves, but wouldn't be too upset if it was the other way. Anthony Edwards is...
Cobbo
Carrigan
Jensen
In whatever order. I feel like they were the ones that kept turning up despite the fatigue. Haas did too before and after the injury.
Payne was so healthy when the Broncos were shit, now it feels like its catching up to him this year when the Broncos are genuine contenders. Hopefully it's something not too major.
IF Reynolds can come back before the finals, then the Broncos just need to hang on as much as they can. Try to win at minimum half the games and go all out at the end of the season.
