Around the NBA - 2024-25 Season Continued Again

[matchman]

OKC was a bit off after a game 7 just two days ago. But now they're in control. It'll go 4-5 games

wolves can will still, its one game.

Yup losing by 1 or 50 still counts 1 on the W-L column

[Guano]

10-27 for 33 points

UNETHICAL HOOPER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Clyde_Style]

Did they take away Randle’s 3 or did he just stop shooting them?

1st Half = Randle
2nd Half = Wandle

Nothing new

[K_ick_God]

It’s a deep team

Juggernaut I don’t see

But it’s almost the opposite of the previous team … pretty flat after SGA and even SGA is a little choosy for a best player … they’re an even team of good players after him

If Chet is doing his thing, high ceiling. Without him, beatable … Caruso hitting shots may be the clincher too

Their 3 point shot is only good overall

OKC is a tough nut to crack. I think you gotta get the ball out of SGA’s hands as much as possible and trap him hard on picks and also when he drives to mid range. Gotta funnel ball to guys like Dort and Chet and hope they miss from the perimeter. I think Minny will be better in game two.

Randle still balled out and did his usual great performance. Need the rest of the team to show up.

I guess those rednecks in OKC get a championship

Chet can cut and Jalen is aggressive going inside, so not sure it works … but can see how SGA reacts

I think we can hurt them with physicality. They're long but they didn't take well to the slugfest of Denver. Might have lost if Gordon doesn't pull his hammy. Towns needs to go bananas.

I know they walled him off but they stopped going through him and not quite sure why.

[Clyde_Style]

Minny does not have defenders like OG or Mikal and their frontline of Gobert and Randle and Reid can be good defensively, but they looked like trash out there in the 2nd half.

I think facing Mitch would be more difficult for OKC than facing Gobert. And dealing with OG and Mikal would also be a bigger challenge for them.

Let's not forget we never played OKC with Mitch at his current level of play this season

We can defend OKC. If we can defend Boston we can do it with them too.

His “usual great performance” hmmm

He is playing with a lot of confidence and can even defend when he wants to. Why doesn’t he always want to?

It’s a great statline but not a great performance bc it all came early and his team lost

At best it’s a big asterisk

[Red Vines]

Gobert 2 points 3 rebounds not getting it done.

[Jeff Van Gully]

Mike Malone looking like a pretty good analyst

They could’ve went to him a lot more in the second half but the wolves were also getting tons of open looks so I wasn’t really upset they weren’t forcing it to him. They gotta knock down those 3s. Really unacceptable performances from Donte, NAW and Naz Reid. They need to lock themselves in a gym overnight and take 10000000 3s lol

Right but the Thunder were gonna give them those looks until there was a payoff.

[kNicksGmen]

Wolves need to make their open 3s it's really that simple. Lot of open catch and shoot looks.

Randle had some bad turnovers and basically didn't score in the 2nd half until garbage time after a great shooting 1st half. But he was mostly making the right plays other than a few times he really forced it - but can't blame him nobody else was doing anything.

[Adelheid]

Sga is the most unethical hooper I've seen since wade

I cant respect it at all.

Foul Billionaire?

I don’t blame OKC for that strategy. Donte and NAW have been shooting bricks in the playoffs. If they start hitting shots it changes the whole game.

Oh well, at least Randle was solid. I’ll take that at least
