If nikkas are still talking that market shyt, it’s just proof they don’t know or love ball like that. Even going into it, it was an actually intriguing matchup. Now you got as great of a series opener as you could hope for

Didn’t some people on the coli say okc defense was just as good as the 04 pistons

Defensively, The 2019 raptors are much better than this okc team

I’m far from a SGA lover. His second and third options were straight ghost. Who else did you want the shots to go to?

Nikkas acting like he shot 30 percent. He went 47% overall and 50% from 3. That's really good for a guard that dominates the ball. He had a good game. Yes he should have made his last 10 foot jumper that hit back rim. OKC lost the game because their other important players let their foot off the gas. Lu Dort showed up. You could just feel it with the pacers lingering around and trailing by 8 to 10 points.

Getting Shai shooting 30 attempts might be the path to success for the Pacer.

Rick know what he wants Shai to do.

OKC sweep they said......OKC in five this won't be close they said.

Casuals changing their votes in the polls now.

CACanada shambles

Only in they had .. killed by the 22nd best player in the NBA

Didn’t some people on the coli say okc defense was just as good as the 04 pistons

Billups, Rasheed Wallace, Ben Wallace and Tayshaun Prince … those mfers had three guys, maybe four, who were the best defenders at their position in the league. OKC ain’t on that level.

Basketball was played so different them. I honestly don't know you can compare between eras

Just got back from the game.

Dub and Chet gotta do better. Dub missed a lot of easy ones. Shai did what he was supposed to. Thunder just didn't convert.

Wallace needs to play better also.

Coach Daig gotta coach better. This should've been an easy win. Controlled the game the whole time.

Exactly analytics dikk suckers have no basketball awareness just pure box score watching. These mfs got me riding for Shai, unbelievable

dort is the only elite defender they have

Years from now we’ll look back at these playoffs as the most fukkery filled playoffs in NBA history.

It's a must win for OKC in game 2
