The seventh and final game of this great Western Conference Semifinals series will be this Sunday, when the Denver Nuggets try to pull off an upset and overcome the heavily favored Oklahoma City Thunder.

Denver Nuggets vs Oklahoma City Thunder: Nuggets +9.

Despite entering this series as the main favorites to reach the finals, the Thunder have not had an easy time against the Nuggets, who have used all their quality and experience to give problems to the team that achieved the best record in the regular season. The presence of Nikola Jokic makes the Nuggets a dangerous team, and while his teammates have been inconsistent in these playoffs, when they do a good job they are at the level of the Thunder, and on this occasion, considering their greater experience in these scenarios, we expect them to support the Serbian again, managing to fight until the end and covering a handicap of +9.

Injuries for Denver Nuggets:

J. Murray Day to day.

A. Gordon Day to day.

H. Tyson Day to day.

D. Holmes II Out.

Injuries for Oklahoma City Thunder:

N. Topic Out.

Denver Nuggets vs Oklahoma City Thunder: Over 212.5

Game 6 showed that the Nuggets’ offense has enough to support Jokic and give problems to the Thunder’s solid defense, with Jamal Murray being more effective and also having good contributions from other players. For their part, although the Thunder could not produce as usual, they have had a consistent performance in this series, and knowing that this will be the last game, they will do their best. Both squads have a lot of offensive quality, so we expect them to give their best and give us a game with many points.

Denver Nuggets vs Oklahoma City Thunder Prediction

A Game 7 of a series is always full of tension, excitement and moments that will go down in history, and this will be no exception, as there will be two of the best players in the league, Jokic and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, who will surely lead their teams in what will be a very close duel until the end. Therefore, we think that the final difference between one team and another will be few points.
