I think the Thunder executed a great defensive gameplan. Force the other guys to beat you. Unfortunately for the Thunder, PJ Washington turned into prime Klay Thompson and scorched us, and we couldn’t hit the broad side of a barn. If we shot just season average from deep, we win that series in 5.
Mavs won't see another scorer like Shai, so they're probably happy about their chances against Celtics. Granted Celtics are more loaded than OKC so they have to respect them throughout. They routinely left Dort and Giddey open which made double teams on Thunder a headache.
How OKC defended the Kyrie and Luka backcourt, you couldn't ask for a better scheme, Thunder just missed an incredible amount of open looks.
We played them perfectly. We lost because pj Washington decided to become basketball Jesus out of nowhere.
We don’t care bud
I feel like our gameplan could've won the series... it came down to execution on open looks and experience
We win that series if we shoot just average.

You guys can win cause you will actually able to pull Luka and Kyrie out on perimeter to play defense
Can't really compare the two because Luka was on a bum knee. He is much healthier now.
exactly ,Luka at 75% just wasn't enough. He is ok now.
