OKCEAL Team Six Hunts Down The Haliban! | Official Thunder (#1) vs. Pacers (#4) 2025 NBA Finals Thread

[tremonthustler1]

he knows hes rage baiting...thats his whole shtick

he knows that, but we entertained it when it was LeBron, Tebow, Dallas, etc.

I see he's looking for new people to attach to and it's not the same.

I seen some shyt the other day where he's needling Sabrina Carpenter and shyt. I'm just waiting for the day when people realize Stephen A ain't no better.

If this was anything other than the Finals (or Game 7 of the ECF), I have no doubts Indiana would've rested him. But I don't think you'll convince any of these guys to not play during the Finals.

Unfortunately, he just paid the ultimate price.

I’m sure they explained the risks to Hali. If you leave it up to the player he’s going to want to play. There’s no guarantee he ever gets this close to a title ever again

Man I hope Tyrese is ok i dont understand playing your star player with strained lower body parts its legit stupid and out their careers at risk. Sometimes team doctors and owners have to step in ans prevent things like that happening

This is that Drake gif in a tweet

Game 7 achilles tear is crazy.

 

[UpAndComing]

If I’m Rick Carlisle I’m putting in James Johnson and just have him cause havoc until he fouls out or ejected

fukk it, just have him fukk someone up.

The only thing he's going to cause havoc to is the backboard

 

[CP3.]

Ownership doesn't care about you. If they did, they'd shut you down

Ofc the player is gonna say he's good

Regular season injury protocol has to follow the regular season. No matter the stakes!!!

They need to be smarter then. Dudes are throwing away a full year of their career and the possibility of never being the same player when they return. It's not worth it.

 

[the cool]

Dead ass, SGA is nice but he looks like a Temu second three peat Mike with his moves sometimes. Kills me young nikkas think Mike wouldn’t smoke modern NBA as well

No one is stopping MJ post up fade away in today’s game

 

[FaTaL]

Haliburton did just what any of us would have done if our team had a chance at a title and we were a focal piece.

This isn’t anyone’s fault it’s just some unfortunate bullshyt that happened. Sometimes life happens.

yea but it happens too often, teams will start approaching calf injuries much different in the future

 

[cartierhoe]

That dont mean shyt it was a 2 point deficit when he left some of you nikkas are goofy...

I'm goofy for saying he was on a hot streak 3/4 from deep in this game when he was the most aggressive he's been in this series to start a game?

Yall nikkas got it, the man got hurt, fukk are you nikkas even talking about I can't give him props now?

 

[tremonthustler1]

fukk a game 7 if we talking about your entire career being altered or gone.

for a game 7, winner takes all, his whole career will feel altered if they lose and he never gave it a shot.

 

[Anerdyblackguy]

AAU culture has also got to change because a lot of these guys' tendons and ligaments are already marinated before they get to the league now

I agree with your premise but Hali didn’t play much AAU basketball. I think he only did it for one season in high school

 

[Ziggiy]

If Haliban somehow Willis Reed's this and wins game 7 he will become a deity in Indiana

I don’t think its happening bro. I’m just praying its NOT an Achilles injury at this point.

 

[iceberg_is_on_fire]

They kept saying the Pacers was sacrificing shyt to make it this far. And after possessed siakim in the last game they better have some shyt in the tuck

Possessed Siakim has me weak.

If Haliban somehow Willis Reed's this and wins game 7 he will become a deity in Indiana
