As it turns out, the bookies were right picking the Wolves as the favorite for game 6.
With the exception of Gordon and Jokic, the Nuggets team were out there throwing bricks. Down by as many as 50? Nobody would expect a score line like that and, if not for their good team reputation, some would think they threw this game for a game 7.
I already knew that the Nuggets will not try to go all-out and will defeat the Wolves on the road, but to lose by that much? Losing by 10 is almost understandable for me, but to lose by 40+ points and to score only 70 points the whole game?
I think this is the lowest score of the Nuggets in the history of playoffs. They beat their lowest score a few years ago which is 80. Right now, where many players are scoring more, 70 points can be scored by any team in 2 quarters alone. In the whole 4th quarter, they only scored 9 points. I don't know, but it's their performance is a bit disappointing. Ever since that 27-5 run by the Wolves at the start of the first quarter, they didn't look back already, and maintained their double-digit lead all throughout the game.
Anyway, Game 7 will be on Denver, and I will go all-in on my bets on the Nuggets.
