Mathurin from hero to zero. This would be a tie game if he didn’t miss the free throws and give up 1 point for free

What he did tonight was gross. Dude has the whole team do the heavy lifting for 3 quaters and then decides to spam hero ball. Nasty work.


Loss is on him for sure. Disgusting hero ball down the stretch. Full ball hog mode.

It's tough to hold on for a whole game, I'm not really seeing this as a choke, it's not like they were missing FT's or doing something wild, it's just that it is tough and it's not an easy opponent

Call it a choke if you want. You can only over come so many bad calls. Yes I'm blaming it on calls. Yeh I'm bitter, might of been our best chance to get this.

Don't tell me the freethrow attempts were close. People saw the game. OKC were in the game because of the calls.

That non call push off offensive foul on SGA sealed the game.

Big win for OKC after being down most of the game. They looked like they were lacking confidence at times but this was a good way to get that back.

This is why teams with so many young role players don’t typically make it this far.
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?

Please advise….

7 games series written over this one I think.

Thunder bailed out by SGA hitting some superstar shots... that could have ended the game or bring them back and tonight it brought them back.

Thunder needs variety in their plays and Indiana just needs better performance from Haliburton.

Feels like this series might end up the same way as the 2022 Finals ended for the Celtics, where a Game 4 loss at home ended up being the nail in the coffin for the series. Do the Pacers have another road win in them?
