The New look Nuggets are no match for the Oklahoma Thunder. The Nuggets could not hit a shot in game three even though they big time open looks they were missing easy layups. No one could hit a big shot. JR Smith is the only person on the team that isn't afraid to shoot in crunch time. Unfortunately he hit a cold spell causing a lead to become a deficit in a hurry. The Nuggets missed 15 free throws if they hit on half there misses they would have won. That, and if your aunt had balls she would be your uncle.
The Thunder used the "hack a NENE" technique they made a pact no layups for NENE and it worked Nene hit just 50% of his free throws. Kevin Durant did not have a great night, nor did Westbrook they both shot below average but that was good enough for this game.
The Nuggets have lost this series even if they win the next game, no NBA team has come back from 0-3 and won a series. The Nuggets have to make some moves this off season. Someone who will make threes, free throws, and can count on in crunch time. Ray Felton is good point guard but he wants to start he should get a pretty good return on a trade. JR Smith had a temper tantrum about playing time had a chance last night and proved why George Karl is right. Quick contested shots early in fourth quarter helped Oklahoma get the lead back. JR is inconsistent on both ends of the court it is tough to play him in big games. That said at this point what have you got to lose. Play JR at least he has the balls to take the big shot.
