Whatt a disgrace, busted your ass all year long for a 9 pt quarter in the conference finals.
I dont want to see the Wolves at this stage ever again

2nd year in a row where the Wolves got off to a slow start in an elimination game of the WCF. Very disappointing. However, shout out to OKC for not messing around and trying to end this series tonight.

I also can't imagine Haliburton and that Indiana offense getting locked up this badly but maybe OKC is capable.
When luck shuts the door skill comes in through the window.

yeah, I don't get the hate. OKC is running guys at him and he's making the right reads. His teammates need to make open shots... reminds me a lot of Paolo and his teammates bricking open shots. Paolo's just bigger and can get more looks inside.

Conley has to be replaced. They need a scoring shooting PG. Trade Gobert for Luka. LOL.
Darius Garland...no idea how they get that to work though.
Good idea! Three way trade. Gobert to third team and some assets along with Garland back. I would so trade for Nembhard!!! He can play a distributor if you remember the games where Hali couldn't play. He ran the offense. Not sure why Pacers would trade him. not till 27/28 season.

yeah we are good but it wasn't an elite offensive first quarter either. Very good defense but Minny missed a ton.

That’s a wild stat for Shai scored or assisted on 24 of 26 points

The Thunder have been the most talented team in the league for a couple of years now and this is.the season they are going to cash in, like the Celtics last year.
It's a miracle in itself Denver pushed them to 7 games.
No one aside from the Spurs is going to come close to them in the West for the next 5 years.
They have the flexibility (cap space and draft picks) to get better too.
They definitely have Dynasty potential
They win next year , This season is Pacers to cash in

Yeah it's nice to see a team show SOME sort of fight with their playoff lives on the line after getting smacked around earlier on this series.

The Thunder also held the Nuggets to 8 first quarter points in game 4.

Playoff hockey and baseball are more exciting than playoff basketball

I give OKC credit where credit is due, but I gotta keep it real, Minnesota is like 1-14 on open shots.
