How Thunder’s Unstoppable Strategy Crushed the Nuggets When It Mattered Most
But itâs hard to look at the way this series went and not think that the depth difference between these two teams is really important. The Thunder had eight players they trusted in this series, and Cason Wallace and Caruso were basically sixth and seventh starters.
Meanwhile, the Nuggets never knew what they were getting from any players off their bench and had to rely so heavily on their starters, even with Porter Jr. injured the whole series and Gordon hurt for Game 7. They were essentially down to Christian Braun, Murray and Jokic by the end of the series. That clearly took a toll on their team.
