Also, Jokic, Gordon & braun combined for 49 rebounds, OKC's entire team only pulled down 43.

Watched the press con of the OKC coach.

He admitted to the mistake and said the players just followed his orders to keep fouling.

That's the CoY last year and he still made a blunder that cost his team a playoff game.

No Garland, Mobley, and Hunter for Cleveland. What a gift for the Pacers. They need to take advantage.

Might regret it. I don’t think Hunter is a big deal though but the other guys yes.

Max Strus, went from getting cut by the Celtics before the Season, to Starting for the Cavaliers.

Nesmith is a jerk.
It's not accidental from him, when it happens so much.

Was thinking the same thing. At least we got one season of the malcontent Brogdon who was of course hurt at the most important time lol

Come on, guys, we got Jrue Holiday for Brogdon.

It's not like Portland would trade Holiday for Nesmith in 2023.
