OG

Ohhhhhh no

He looks fine. I was holding my breath there for a second.

Loving how everyone is unselfish though and people just take over as they need to.

Brunson has been off - missing FTs and shots he usually makes

Brunson is always hot and cold with FTs. Overall he’s still 80% plus but one game he goes 16/17 then next 6/10. It’s weird.

Missed 2 that quarter, 4-14 from the field with some easy shots

Big 4th ahead for him - Dort has 4

Jesus ******* Christ box out.

Why aren’t they feeding KAT against their small lineup??

 

[airmax1fanatic]

NYK missing at the worst time, OKC hitting at the best time. Fatigue, possibly? game over

 

[biggie62]

Bro the amount of contact they make Jalen and Kat play through while they call touch fouls on Kat is really BS

 

[you go boy]

welp thats game

 

[masagipatron]

Damn

 

[you go boy]

its all good run it back at the garden

 

[biggie62]

I know they don’t want to force it but KAT should have been featured more in the 4th. They play small players on him. Let him dominate them inside and force doubles.

Really bad lost a game they should have had; if you can’t crack above 20 points in a quarter in the new modern NBA a good chance you’ll lose the game

 

[you go boy]

the biggest problem with this team is the bench... they are too reliant on the starters playing heavy minutes to make up for the lack of bench.... now you see why thibs plays his starters to the ground...only guys that can score are cam and duece with cam being a suspect defender

 

[biggie62]

This is the best team in the nba IMO and they are missing Chet still so if you’re going to lose a game this is the squad to lose it to and learn from.

This is a game where you need to play through KAT more though and force rotations and doubles. We have the cutting and 3 point shooting.

 

[you go boy]

the only option right now is to play other guys aka the rookies or make a big trade which would have to sacrifice someone unfortunately prally mitch, sims, duece etc anyone besides the starters...hopefully precious can make a big step offensively or when mitch comes back the defense is so good that you can afford to leave the starters on the bench

we are in good shape but the bench is suspect af to really get far in the playoffs

 

[jayocampo]

I have no words.

Really rough finish - out scored 20-10 in the last 5 mins

We basically did what the heat got caught doing against the magic 2 weeks back. I saw it in person and it was mind blowing. But same ****.

To be clear that’s a really, really good OKC team. I love watching them and will be courtside in a few weeks when they play PDX.

Would love to see both teams healthy in June

Lost to the best team in the league and got completed dominated by Hartenstein defensively. He changed the entire game when he came back in and was making it impossible to drive on those hedges and traps at half court on Brunson coming off of screens.

 

[ballinsam23]

iHart was a big loss

On to the next one

Keeping ihart means no KAT. I think we are better off.
