The Denver Nuggets ended their playoff journey in Game 7 of their playoff series against the Oklahoma City Thunder.
Denver Nuggets basketball players have completed their participation in the NBA League for the 2024/2025 season.
The end of the season came in the seventh game of the semi-finals of the West conference against the Oklahoma City Thunder, which won 125:93.
Nikola Jokic was not at his level, and even so he was the most effective in the ranks of his team, however, the birds on the branch already know that Nikola must get better teammates.
Proof of this is the behavior of Russell Westbrook, who certainly annoyed every Denver Nuggets fan during this season.
Namely, the basketball player of the team from Colorado made an ill-advised move after the game.
As his teammates mourned and bowed their heads as they left the Oklahoma City Hall, Russell was in a close embrace with Shai Gilgeous Alexander, OKC's leading scorer.
Namely, SGA and Nikola Jokić are certainly the biggest rivals in the fight for the MVP title this season, and Westbrook didn't mind showing his apparently intimate relationship with the Oklahoma star in public.
ESPN reacted
ESPN attacked Westbrook a few weeks ago, and they only had criticism on his account.
They pointed out that Russell isn't 100 percent headed in this series, and it looks like that turned out to be true.
After his team was demolished, he thought it was the right time to laugh and tell with them, in front of the cameras of the whole world.
Fans also reacted furiously to his behavior, stressing that this approach is completely wrong. Some even went so far as to ask the club to talk to him, believing that this basketball player should bear serious consequences.
However, it is clear that Russell did not have any bad intentions, the primary thing was to show sportsmanship. His gesture is marked by the fans of the opposing team as commendable, aware that Russell is a player who knows how to praise others and give them respect.
