00:00All right, SGA had 33-10-8 in the loss last night.
00:04First loss of the playoffs, of course, for the Thunder after they swept the Grizz.
00:08But down 1-0, 68 wins this season.
00:12Here's SGA.
00:13We've got nothing to worry about.
00:14We're going to be fine.
00:15Shea, obviously, taste of adversity here tonight.
00:19What's your expectation of how this team will respond to tonight?
00:24Yeah.
00:25This should be good.
00:26This should be fun.
00:26But we're going to find out what we're made of, what we're really made of.
00:32And we couldn't expect it to be smooth sailing, this whole journey.
00:35No journey in life is, and we know that.
00:38And today is a bump in our own, unexpected.
00:41No one expects to lose, especially that way.
00:43But it's the game of life.
00:45So it's about how you respond to getting knocked down,
00:48and that's what we've got to do next game.
00:51Well, there you go.
00:52So he's very serious.
00:53And he's apparently drawn up battle plans for the remainder of this series.
00:59Let's see if tomorrow night they can show up and win.
01:03Westbrook was wearing that hat again last night, by the way.
01:06He had that Crocodile Dundee hat on.
01:09Crocodile Dundee.
01:09And, yeah, Westbrook was looking good in the game afterwards as well.
01:15As far as the series goes now, despite losing the first game,
01:18Thunder still big favorites, minus 320.
01:23They are at the Nuggets plus 260, and they've already got a game.
01:26So there you go.
01:28People's books still expect the Thunder to take care of business in this series.
01:31Yeah, I don't know.
01:35I see no reason not to invest in the Nuggets at that price.
01:40You know what I mean?
01:41What do you have to lose to throw a few bones down on them?
01:43And they've already won a game, and they're going to go home.
01:46And they're going to be hard to play in Denver in the ball arena.
01:51We've already seen it.
01:52We've already seen what they're capable of against the Clippers.
01:56And they're going to give the Thunder, it would appear to me, after last night,
02:01it's pretty obvious they're going to be a pain in their ass.
02:04No matter what, every night.
02:06Every night.
02:07I guarantee you, I think tomorrow night they're going to do the same thing.
02:11They're going to be a problem.
02:12You know why?
02:14Because they have Joker, and they have all these pieces that know how to play with him.
02:20That's the difference.
02:21They know how to play with this guy.
02:22They all know where to go on the floor, in the space, in the spots, to get buckets.
02:31And especially Westbrook.
02:33He knows what he's doing out there.
02:35Gordon is a massive problem for the Thunder.
02:39In fact, I don't know how they deal with the two of them.
02:45You cannot tell me that anyone on that team can guard Djokovic, or whatever his name is.
02:50I mean, it's just unbelievable.
02:52Djokovic is, he's unguardable.
02:56And they put whoever on him.
02:58They can't guard both of them.
03:01They can't.
03:02Can't guard them both.
03:02I mean, I think Gordon is enormous.
03:06And so is Porter.
03:08Porter reminds me of Durant in the sense of his ability to get a shot off from anywhere deep
03:15without anyone blocking it.
03:17Because he's so tall and so long, and he shoots back here like this.
03:21When he gets up in the air, whap, he lets it fly.
03:24When is the last time you saw anyone ever block him?
03:28No one can handle Jokovic.
03:30No one can handle Gordon.
03:31No one can handle Porter.
03:33And you can barely guard Murray.
03:35And now Brown has become a pain in the ass.
03:38They're a pain in the ass for this whole series.
03:40It's automatic.
03:40It's automatic.
