In just a little bit over 48 hours since winning a Game 7 against the Los Angeles Clippers, the Denver Nuggets will lock horns with the West’s No.1 team, the Oklahoma City Thunder, in Game 1 of their series on Monday at Paycom Center.
The Nuggets came out as the winner of a grueling seven-game series with the Clippers as Aaron Gordon recorded 22 points and Nikola Jokic posted 16 points, 10 rebounds, and 8 assists to fuel their team to a dominant 120-101 win in Game 7. Denver also got a boost of energy off the bench from Russell Westbrook, who chipped in 16 points on 5 for 9 shooting.
Meanwhile, the Thunder made quick work of the Memphis Grizzlies, sweeping them in four games. OKC showed a combination of dominance and poise to break the spirit of a previously tough-minded Grizzlies squad. Led by MVP favorite Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, the Thunder routed Memphis in Games 1 and 2 before grinding out the last two wins on the road.

Our Oklahoma City Thunder vs Denver Nuggets Prediction
Fearless Forecast: Thunder routs Nuggets at home
The Nuggets and the Thunder split their four regular-season games, with both teams winning on the road and at home. The Thunder handed the Grizzlies the most embarrassing postseason loss in the franchise’s history with a 131-80 win in Game 1. Against the Nuggets, though, I am skeptical if they can pull off such a dominant win against a team hardened by their brutal series against the Clippers. Moreover, as long as Nikola Jokic finds a way to produce MVP-worthy numbers, the Nuggets will always have a chance of winning a game, regardless of the venue. And while I am not sure if the Nuggets have enough gas in the tank to launch a pivotal rally late in the match, I still think they can go toe-to-toe with the Thunder at the Paycom Center. Our betting prediction for the Denver Nuggets vs. Oklahoma City Thunder: Nuggets +9.5 points.
