I am beyond shocked now. This has to be the most shocking result since 2011 if not 2004.

I've been thinking about that all series. I'm not sure he can be more than a role player at his size given that he's not a PG.

This is OKC's season and they are melting down. Iso ball is not going to work.

If Indy can close this series out Obi Toppin can run for mayor.

Siakam is absolutely brutal when he tries to take anyone -- literally anyone -- off the dribble from the 3-point line.

Nembhard should be Finals MVP is the Pacers eventually win this series.

To be fair the stats said OKC was all time great.

However, that Nuggets series with a broken nuggets team taking them to 7 really should have spelled more danger


The stats didn't account for the fact that JDub and Chet have no experience. Regular season stats are also overrated.

OKC has all of their starters out there minus Dort. Is that normal? They may run out of gas in the 4th.

I'm turning off the stream. OKC ain't serious about the championship running an offense this bad..

Thunder not creating open shots at all, not sure how they expect to survive on this
