Does anybody think OKC has a chance against Boston?

I havent seen Boston play a full game this year but based on what I saw from OKC vs US. I think Boston will beat them...

My thoughts exactly. I didn’t think OKC looked too impressive.

So someone who played the most playoff games since 2020 has the highest stat totals?
Why not look at his shooting percentages and per game metrics? There is a reason he didn't win finals MVP.

He averaged 25/10/6 in the playoffs this last season, leading his team in every category. Finals MVP is just a media award. They gave that award to Iggy over Steph Curry.
Tatum is in elite company when it comes to winning a chip.

I'm glad I saw your post- I'm going to watch this game so I can see these two teams...I know OKC is missing Caruso and Chet..
what's Bostons story- you know Spree?

Everything he has done for that franchise and they act like he is a scumbag for wanting to get paid and work a lil less as he ages.

I hate how players are complete idiots when it pertains to their on-court worth.

Congrats big dawg.

4 days into the 2025 and you've already wrapped up the worst take of the year.

Yeah, 2025 won't be a good year for facts, truth, and reality.

Butler already watched Harden and Klay play themselves. Unless he succeeds where everyone else has failed, the most likely scenario will be Butler having to opt in to his last year (good money) and then getting a small bag from whoever has it. Could have kept quiet, did the playoff jimmy thing again, and gotten the trade in the off-season.

Nah, he is perfect for their culture. All he does is try to trip other players and get under their ankles. If you can't beat em, beat em. That's heat culture circa the mid 90's and on.

Celtics were up 10 at halftime. 11 in the 3rd. Now down 9 in the 4th. Sound familiar? OKC is legit and Shai is definitely playing MVP level.

Impressive statement win by OKC against Boston. Celtics player’s couldn’t score against the Thunder’s defense in the 4th quarter. Luckily we have KAT for these, unfortunately we relied on JB hero ball instead.

When has KAT ever one a series based on his individual greatness? I love KAT but just stop.

Thunder looks legit this year.

Celtics would have won if they gave Baylor Scheierman some minutes instead of wearing out Brown + Tatum at almost 40 min each

I did not say anything about him winning with individual greatness. KAT is an unselfish player and we can win as a team by playing through him. You stop.
