Denver Nuggets
Denver really hasn’t faltered at any point this season. The Nuggets are 11–5 since the All-Star Break and, though Golden State has caught them, they look like a consistently terrific team, not one that simply started fast during a stretch of season not all contenders take seriously.

In fact, the Nuggets have re-caught the Warriors and the two teams are tied atop the Western Conference Standings. Denver does have a tough road back-to-back coming up with a game in Houston on Thursday night before this one on Friday.
But whereas the defense would have crumbled in such a spot in recent seasons, this year’s unit is solid, even a strength. Denver’s slower pace has limited the opponent. The Nuggets are also holding opponents to 34 percent from 3-point range, the third-lowest in the league.

And though Nikola Jokic has fallen off the torrid pace for the MVP, set by James Harden and Giannis Antetokounmpo, he’s going to finish with godly numbers.
Big Honey has missed just one game and will finish with a field goal percentage better than 50. He’s putting up over 20 points, 10 rebounds, and 7.5 assists, with 1.3 blocks and 0.7 steals per game. For someone who has the ball in his hands as much as Jokic does, turning it over just three times per game is great, too.
OKC Thunder
So while the Nuggets will come into this game weary, on the second night of a back-to-back with travel in between, OKC has the night before off after beating Indiana on Wednesday.
It was an underwhelming win against an opponent that is weary of the road, too, having lost four out of its last five, which were all away from home.

But Paul George scored another 31; Steven Adams had 25 and looked refreshed; and Russell Westbrook posted yet another triple-double, though with just 17 points.
Unfortunately, it just doesn’t look like Andre Roberson will come back in time for the playoffs and OKC really could have used him to spell some of the other rotational guys throughout the regular season.
As a result, Adams, Jerami Grant, George, and Westbrook have played heavy minutes without many nights off. OKC has slid all the way into 8-seed territory. The Thunder may be best suited to play Denver in the first round, as opposed to Golden State or Houston.

Free Denver Nuggets vs. Oklahoma City Thunder NBA Prediction: OKC at home.
I don’t feel good about backing the Thunder at all down the stretch here. Denver is sure in a tough spot, as much as it would love the 1-seed. I’m staying away, most likely.
