Luka and Kyrie just on another level on offense.

Washington was a good get for Dallas.

The problem with o k c is.. Giddy is a good point guard at moving the ball around.But he is a horrific play off shooter.. At some point, teams will stop covering him and load up on the others, especially SG.A..

Derrick White is not a starting caliber player.

Yep. Lively had a great first campaign but hard to roll out a 20 year old with a group of vets. Now they have a great 1-2 big rotation.

Stuff said in game threads don't count.

Chet looks absolutely gassed/out of legs.

Presti needs to get him some back up/help this off season.

NBA eats their young. Often the case. OKC need to get their **** together in the 2nd half.

Not a surprise if you watched the NBA long enough.

The NBA is league where you have to pay your dues.

It's always like that in the playoffs.

After losing Game 1, the Mavs adjusted and found cracks in the OKC defense.

He's playing only 33 minutes per game. He needs to get fitter if he's gonna be a star.

Bingo!

Lack of bulk makes him exert more effort.

Getting bulkier will do him a lot of good.

People crying about the Celtics barely beating the Cavs but the Mavs barely have 60 points and Thunder have 54 points with 5 minutes left in the 3rd. Talk about garbage

so the actual coach of the year, Recognizes what I said and actually benched the all year long starter.. Giddy just cannot space the court.. So the coach of the year substitutes Isaiah Joe in.. That move may or may not work out but the fact that he had the balls to try it alone Has gained my respect..

Can someone send Joe this memo..
