Lame Dort flop smh.

The combination of foul baiting and reaching in and fouling and not getting called for it is pretty all time with this Thunder team.

I do think the odds are wrong Pacers are legit super fun to watch too.

As a neutral watching fingers crossed its a competitive series.

Also my man love for Chet is unbound


Holmgren? He does have length and mobility.


Siakam has the physical tools plus structure wise OKC likes to have Chet close to the rim makes sense.

If anything Hart + Holmgren but that all depends on whose on the court for the Pacers

The Pacers aren’t ready for the moment.

The absurdly dumb turnovers, the standing around and watching OKC hustle for rebounds, the airballs.

Moment is too big for them.
