Game 7 Showdown: Which Hidden Heroes Could Rewrite Nuggets-Thunder Playoff History?
The Nuggets would love to have those kinds of defensive playmakers on the bench. Peyton Watson has had some defensive moments but is a non-factor offensively. The Nuggets’ other two rotation players are both frenetic defenders who often end up as a negative on that end.
It should be noted that chaos agent Russell Westbrook has flummoxed the Thunder a couple of times on defense by taking gambles that are so unexpected they blow up the Thunder’s plays because they don’t see him coming. But, after a good first series and solid first two games of this series, Westbrook has struggled mightily in games 3-6.
