Stick Jaylin in there and he bodies him up and puts the bum in his place. When you are trying to defend him with midgets it doesn't work well.

Yes, midgets was hyperbole, but JDub is 6'5. Playing him non-stop against 6'9+ is an issue.

monster quarter from Chet/hartenstein.

Glad Cason is hitting his 3's.

same. He's a huge problem against us but so far it's the best defense we have played against him.

we only won game 4 because drives on him were money but hate that he always finds a way to score 15

It's way too easy for Siakam tonight

Have Jaylin go get physical with him!!!! Siakiam is 6'9 and 245 lbs. He's got 30 lbs on Chet and 4 inches and 30 lbs on JDub. Send in Jaylin and make Siakiam play against someone his own size!!!

We are +12 but I'm not a fan of Coach D resting Shai that much. I would rather build a good lead while we can. I get it on the road in a closer game but here you gotta kill your opponent and don't give him a chance.

I have no clue if Haliburton is really injured but gotta try to attack him as much as possible and figure it out

2025 playoffs average margin of victory for OKC in a game 5: 31 points. Relax.

unfortunately that's a necessity

i wish i had the gps numbers of how much his defensive matchups runs to tire him off the ball. we don't need him gassed late games

As much as I want to talk crap about this team and the failures of Presti and based on YEARS of data you know I'd love to. This team wins when the must win games. Last year they were just outmatched by Dallas. They fought hard, but Presti didn't give them the tools. This year they have the tools to succeed and they will not lose a must win game.

I don't think people realize how good Chet is defensively

I'm afraid he's going to stay healthy next season and win DPOY and get a 30% extension instead of 25%.

So was Jordan's undefeated record in must win games in the Finals worthless or greatness?
