OKC is a fake contender.

OKC is up 1 point but they are finished. Mavs will be up by halftime

Edit: Guess I was wrong, didn’t think Luka was going to be a turnover machine

.. That's what I said... Dallas is playing off of him like he is ben simmons... And the head coach continued to start joe over him... giddy 0-2 in seven minutes.. And The spacing is so much better with Joe And what surprise SGA Is killing with the better spacing..OKC still has keep shooting well in the 2nd half..but it wouldn't surpeise me if Giddey gets a DNP..

Probably not from the jump. But didn't he make a change to his starting lineup vs. the Sixers last postseason in G3 IINM?

COY not calling any timeouts and letting his boys play.

BRUNiNHO91 · Post #469 » by **BRUNiNHO91** » Sun May 19, 2024 1:42 am

I want Dallas to send OkC home. I can’t stand those corny ass team interviews these OKC dudes do..send them bitches home Luka.

Didn't the players bully him into making that lineup change?

Wouldn’t have played him during the year much either. Have you known Joe to want to play players that can’t shoot the three and can’t defend?

If we were in full development mode then maybe because you bank on him improving in both but otherwise Joe would have asked for him to be traded at deadline.

And how are we sure that COY wasn't pressured by someone else to make the Giddey change? Point is, they still made the call.

He’s all they got though. Interesting spot where he’s young enough to just fit into their timeline but they’d be well served to be heavy buyers in the off season.

Wildly uninspiring by both teams here really
