How did Aaron Gordon help the Nuggets stun the Thunder?
Offensive glass, defensively, they had it all.
There are so many fun narratives surrounding this series when you consider Ant trying to take down another legend. Is he full Randy Orton here as the legend killer? Can he take Curry now and add him to his list of all these guys he's taken down in playoff series? Jimmy Butler returning to face a franchise he basically tried to burn to the ground. That's fun.
And then the one everyone likes to talk about, Draymond Green. versus Rudy Gobert. Oh, yeah. Round whatever this is. Now, with Draymond, something to keep in mind here, he racked up four technical fouls and two flagrant fouls. Happy for Tass's team in the instigator draft. That's my team. Excuse me, that's your team. He did that against Houston.
I bring that up because you get a one-game suspension if you reach seven technicals or you accumulate four flagrant points.
in the playoffs so that's what happened so he's got something to play with yeah it's right okay good i'm glad to hear that he has some room here i thought you were gonna say like five and three oh then he's not gonna be on his best behavior i was like how soon is this gonna happen the game where draymond green chokes rudy gobert was a minute and 43 seconds into their game the 10th game of the season it was the second game oddly enough of a back-to-back with golden state
So I guess 49 minutes in. But if it happens after game two, their first run in, I'll be shocked.
Yes, he obviously does not like Rudy Gobert. Remember when he was working for TNT and they announced the All-Star game, they announced Rudy Gobert. Not a word. He didn't want to say anything about Rudy Gobert. He didn't want to smile. So yes. This is going to be a controversy. That is no doubt about that.
I guess you'd think that he would scale it down, knowing that when he got suspended because of these flagrant fouls, they ended up losing the series against the Cleveland Cavaliers. He was suspended for game five. Came back to bite him in the ass. That's right.
So you do have to watch it. That's why I bring it up. Golden State did win the season series against Minnesota. They took three or four games, but I think all those games were before the deadline. It was a completely different team before Jimmy and all that. Now, Curry was a monster. Curry did play really well against the Wolves.
