minus dort, but yeah

nobody is saying it’s their fault.. the headline is a bit misleading.

maybe describing this as a victory vs “the depleted thunder” instead of “western conference 1 seed” would have better captured the reality of what happened.

Didn’t OKC just win a championship?

I agree with this take, they are still getting settled in but in no way are they not a good squad. They still could beat just about any team in the league on a good night. Tonight was a good night, it just so happens we are playing the 1 seed, would have needed a miracle and it almost Happened.

The OKC bench can’t be a playoff team bro 

I’m not being dismissive lol i’m extremely proud of them. But OP is very obviously trying to mislead people who didnt watch into thinking it was a normal matchup when it wasnt. + if you think this bench is a ‘deep playoff team’ then you’re severely limited in the brain cell department

1. This bench team would not be a “deep playoff team”.

2. IF you make the finals, it ain’t their bench team that you’ll be playing.

OKC in 4. Cade would be the worst MVP OAT.

Lol that lineup is an all effort team but they are not a deep playoff team.

Lol ruthless way to describe Topic

Cancer survivor is crazy that boy is good!

I thought Jovic got traded to OKC and I somehow missed it lmao

Reminds me of all 3 times we played the Westchester Knicks this year…or at least it had to be the Westchester Knicks given the scores.

Agreed. I was more pointing out that the headline is a bit misleading

i post hate on reddit *like a bitch because my posts and comments are hidden and i’m too pussy to flair up

No if they were healthy they would play that’s how winning works

IHart, Chet & Caruso where, it was the second night of a back to back and those 3 are banged up. SGA, J Dub and Ajay are all legit hurt. Isiah Joe got hurt first half and didn’t return. That’s 7 of our top rotation players

buddy has nothing else to say so he fell back on his default response

lol let’s not pretend like the physicality didn’t work both ways that game

The title is just a literal fact. Let’s be honest, y’all would have whined whether the TOs were mentioned or not.

I mean 8 turnovers is ugly but he also led the game with 6 stocks

That boy good.

A tier below for sure 😅

A pure point guard is allowed to score. The point is to control where the ball goes and make sure your teammates are involved. He happens to be their best scorer as well. But his first instinct isn’t to fins his own shot but when he has to he is shifty and balanced enough to make the pass or shoot the ball. And that man can Defend! Super strong on defense. Yeah man dude is THE 1.

Where did I say anything about yall not liking Cade? I’m just pointing out this entire thread + the game thread and post game thread is full of thunder flairs commenting some variation of “congrats on beating the OKC blue”

Our defense is just that nice man. I dont think Cade is good at not turning the ball over but our defense made it worse for him.

He’s not MVP to me but I gotta say overall he played damn well today

He also had 3 blocks and 3 steals.

“Sir, this is a Wendy’s”

I’m gonna sleep just fine, lol

Every time they recap the game the lineup goes down a letter. First it was the B team. Now it’s C. Next week it’ll be the pistons beat the equipment managers

celebrate your big win little buddy

Cool fan fiction bro

Your fans barely showed up this year.

I watched the game. I’ve seen the B team smack good teams during their run earlier this season. A win is a win teams get injured during the season get over it. Never made the claim we’re better than them, cuz we’re not

Our, bro. Our.

Not salty at the Pistons or Cade, just trying to make a point. OKC needs some love in this sub. Where’s the post for JWill’s career high?

Too many turnovers for it to be “that good.” It was good, but not as good as the post is making it out to be.

Nah, it was definitely embarrassing when they lost to the Pacers.

Not everybody stays where they were Born bud. Some of us mature and leave the nest. Incredible right? It’s usually those that don’t leave the nest that talk shit with “durrr you live in Oklahoma”
