If you have Aaron Gordon and Peyton Watson healthy, it's a different team.
Now, to your argument or to your point, well, it's like, well, they just lost to a team that didn't have, you know, their three best players.
Yes, I think Denver should have won this series after.
Anthony Edwards goes down, you're supposed to win this.
The problem is they're already in a hole 3-1.
And then they're looking at this like, guys, we only have to win one game.
We don't have to replay this team out of seven times.
It's like you watching March Madness.
Anybody can beat anybody in one game, especially if we're talking about pros.
So you get a big game from Jada McDaniels and Julius Randle, and then some other guys, Terrence Shannon, some of these other dudes come in and give you something, then you can beat them, especially a team that has zero interior defense.
And for whatever reason, this is the best we've ever seen Rudy Gobert.
guard nicola this and again nicola's bad numbers are my and everybody else's good numbers so let me just put that out there he's one of the greatest centers of all time but this is the i hate saying the worst i've ever seen him play because he still put up good numbers but
this is the most challenged i've ever seen nicola play i'm just so used to him having his way with everyone including rudy i i've seen him have his way i've been on the team with rudy and seen him have his way i've been on the other team and seen nicola i played a nicola i've just i've never seen rudy have an effect on him
like this series.
So it starts with Rudy.
I got to give him credit.
But yeah, it is disappointing that Denver was going to come back, and I thought they were the team best fit to be able to compete in the West with some of these other teams left.
Talking to Austin Rivers, NBC Sports Ant.
