This series could have been technically 2-2 instead of 3-1. So it's hard not to feel a little snake bit here if you're a Cavs fan. It's a little anticlimactic too, right?

Yeah. Not being able to put them away was bad. Sorry. Go ahead. You know? No, no, go ahead. Yeah, I just think like you have a team in Oklahoma City that what is the one thing we've talked about all year with OKC? The depth, playing nine, ten guys.

And genuinely, I think throughout this entire series, we've noticed like Denver's depth popping up and like the six, seven players that they play, every single player is impactful. You think of Russell Westbrook, you think of Aaron Gordon, obviously making timely shots, Michael Porter Jr., all those guys, they've been able to step up in major ways.

When it comes to OKC's depth, I think the big question that comes to me is like, Lou Dort ended up 2 of 10 from 3 in this game, did not play in the fourth quarter. And I think that was a big, big part of OKC swinging this game totally. Because... Denver is basically saying we're allowing Lou to shoot. Nobody else shot more than six threes in this game on OKC other than Lou Dort. He took 10.

They're funneling it to him. And it's very similar to the OKC Mav series from last year where they were doing the same thing with Lou Dort and Josh Giddey. And it just seems like they adjusted in a major way in that fourth quarter. And to your point, Dave, I actually think we should credit Thunder for that. Because they rolled with Alex Caruso in the fourth.

They had a lineup with Caruso, Wiggins and Isaiah Joe that really spurred them on in that fourth quarter to take the lead and then roll with it. So to me, that that felt like a an important shift in the series where they actually figured out like, hey, this is the way we have to win this series.

If we're going to have to play in the mud, we have to play this certain way to pull it off over the next couple of games.
