It’s like some of y’all have never watched sports before lol.

Na Minny does a weird boo everytime he touches the ball. It’s not usual crowd behavior.

That is in fact extremely normal crowd behavior.

I mean, it's pretty obviously because of his foul baiting.

Yeah it’s lame. This ground has been covered.

It's a stain forever attached with SGA. Live with it.

Super entertaining start to the game - both teams playing with a ton of intensity and we’re getting some high level shot making.

Good game so far

Last game was the first time all playoffs I saw that Thunder players were not focused for the game. From the start they were walking around in the game like it was a sunday stroll, a scrimmage. No focus, no intensity, nothing. They acted like they had this in the bag. you can't switch it on when you want it unless you're mentally there from before the game. They found out the hard way. It's something I often saw with Wolves, but never with Thunder. Till game 3.

He was playing hockey against Luka in last playoffs and nothing got called. Dude gets away with so much and flops on top of it. It's insane...

Credit to him, he's not stopping. That's called in-game working the refs. You play consistenly physical all game long, the pressure is on the refs to not call them since they won't call a foul every trip down. That's a mark of a good defensive player.

Eh casuals and long-time fans alike yeah. Good player but not so great if he does not get the calls, that's just how the way it is.

Shai cooking with zero FTs

How are the haters gonna seethe now?

Wolves bigs having problems with the ball. I think Finch needs to limit his bigs' ball handling.

It becomes a problem when it's not called the same on the other side.

MIN is starting to get sloppy. That is going to kill them. Got to limit the turnovers and rebound.

Omg you guys who wins Game 4??
