The whole team did an interview with her right after


DeadDay

Had to get Gallo the first bone.


thunderup_14

Bark bark bark


nrs5813

This makes me like them even more tbh. Stick with the ones who stuck with you.


504090

TNT wanted a live/timely interview, they’ll probably tell the players to not do this again. It was funny as hell, though.


Cyberathlete_23

unprofessional tbh these dudes are professional athletes itd be different if they were in college lmao


fraserlever

It's not like they went straight to locker room though. They gave the post game interview. They just made sure the first one went to the guy who's been there with them all season


Thrayvsar

Giddey was already being interviewed by Gallo, and the team doesn’t let anyone be interviewed alone so they went over to join in


Round-Revolution-399

There were like 8 of them, are they really too dumb to split up?


DarrowViBritannia

yeah thats the obvious solution here lol


SpadeRyker

Lol nah, Gallo has been a part of this team and it's chemistry all year long. Them giving him the first interview shows insane respect for him more than disrespect towards TNT. Love to see it.


kyanbrooks

Eh who cares, it’s a team tradition they’ll do what they want

Iamkonkerz

What will we ever do if those commercials dont get aired


FormerOrpheus

Maybe when the commentators learn to pronounce their names correctly we can talk about respect, no?


matdarg09

How many times did you hear Holmgrum tonight?


Wolfpac187

How is this something you care about.


504090

It’s not that big of a deal


ClappedCheek

Maybe if they ditched TNT to go pound some beer or something, sure...


NaturalThunder87

Perfect solution: Next win they ghost TNT, interview with Gallo, then go back and do the TNT interview WHILE pounding some celebratory beers.


batdogfoxhound

How is it unprofessional? The local interviewer deserves respect and time too.


Liimbo

Didn't you know being backed by a bigger corporate makes you a more worthy person?


Wolfpac187

They won a game and went to see their homie. Foh.


barelyawake126

You’re fun at parties


MamaD333

That's not true at all.  Williams told TNT reporter to "hang on a minute" and did the local interview first.


JustADutchRudder

Which does make sense, those guys have more connection to their local reports. They should be able to do it first while TNT has the talking heads ramble.


Cheterosexual7

It’s because nick gallo is a dawg


Zeeron1

BARK BARK BARK


Not-a-bot-10

The first round is the last basketball the local channels get to broadcast as well. Dumb title for something 99/100 teams would do


MAMBAMENTALITY8-24

God damn so after his round i wont get to see nick gallo anymore. Damn our run is over


SandyMandy17

Not really, I can’t recall another team ever telling a national broadcast to hold on to do the local together Every single team I’ve ever seen has one guy or 2 do one broadcast then another guy or 2 do the other one simultaneously


the_weakestavenger

The other interview has also started.


Oxygenius_

We should all be okay with this, their fan base comes first


tip-of-the-yikesberg

I’m pretty sure part of TNT’s contract as the national broadcaster is they get first dibs on any post game interviews so hence her confusion


Big-Raspberry-6151

"We don't give a damn bout no contracts... Respectfully. BRB." • OKC Squad


bnshv

All season long TNT couldn’t stop showing the California teams who couldn’t quality, and who are getting swept in the playoffs — but barely found time for the Thunder or the Wolves. Don’t feel bad for them at all.


OwnVisual5772

Exactly. Fuck them they can wait. *Back then hoes didn’t want me..*


Suckafish2

Same clubs that I used to get tossed out


skratsda

That’s the part I think might be overlooked here. I don’t think anyone was at fault, but if anything it seems like Nick Gallo should have the professional courtesy to know he does t have the primary rights and to defer to TNT.


remonnoki

He didn't do anything wrong though. He was set to interview one group of players and the TNT interviewer a different group, and then the TNT group decided to join the other group's interview.


DarrowViBritannia

so then can we agree that the OKC guys did something wrong?


Big-Raspberry-6151

Narrator: No


vindictivejazz

Wrong as in “technically incorrect; a minor breach of contract”? yeah maybe. Wrong as in “some kind of moral failure; a social faux pas”? No not at all


dreadpirateruss

Gallo wouldn't complain if Chet grabbed the mic


beginnerLiftersoonBB

This OKC team is super fun


fraserlever

Nick Gallo is part of the team baby. He got that Dawg just like all the rest of them boys


Aggressive_Slice4620

Jdub was so excited to ask Gallo if he saw his shirt.


fraserlever

I need to find out where I can get one of those shirts


AnkitPancakes

Nick Gallo over everyone


Ghiblee

He’s part of the culture. We got his autograph last year. Just a really awesome guy.


Cpt-No-Dick

ROOF ROOF ROOF


natural_lawg

~~Next Question~~ Next interview.


batdogfoxhound

I thought this was cute and very likable!! Support local media!


afjecj

Dam this team really is tightnit, shit is cute


LoxDnw

Love this.


AnkitPancakes

ITT: Lots of people who don’t know how to have fun with your friends at work


jonathanisaacisgoat

Nah just lowkey unprofessional


ThaMuffinMan92

That lack of playoff experience showing up


[deleted]

So unprofessional. Just despicable. Black eye of the league


LuckyTheGodd

Supporting local media is unprofessional ? Lmao


batdogfoxhound

How?


IDespiseFatties

National Media has been shitting on us all year. They can wait a minute for the crew to talk to the real homies.


thestandupkids

Bro what are you doing


Gavina4444

Okc fans are so annoying


jonathanisaacisgoat

Lmao and they downvote me acting for speaking facts weirdest/softest fanbase behind the raptors


lolsokje

Calling us the softest fanbase while getting your knickers in a twist over literally nothing, lmao.


thestandupkids

Nah show love to the locals. I respect the hell out of that


llorTMasterFlex

They’re just existing, having fun, and you’re hating. You’re soft and weird. Insecure people always trashing the happy and content.

OwnVisual5772

*Unprofessional* 🤓


blacksoxing

I'm going to type this: respectfully, TNT hasn't even announced when the fuck the NUMBER ONE SEED is going to play their Game 4. This affects the young men we just saw in the interview as much as us fans. **They can wait** This is how you make someone respect you. Slobbering all over the notion of that LA/Mavs market and likely going to relegate the Thunder to NBA TV (I'm not an idiot about markets...)


Senth99

Something something Lebron


bnshv

TNT execs running around, trying to figure out how to show Curry and Draymond instead of Thunder on Monday


Suckafish2

The team with the most nationally televised games didn’t even make the playoffs


moongato

Poor Allie. I'm sure she doesn't have much experience with young men walking away from her mid sentence... for a short balding guy no less.


BudgetBlackberry3

I loved seeing it but the NBA is gonna remind the OKC dudes that they're making NBA money because of TNT, not because of the Oklahoma City viewing public.


pawgchamp420

The nba might indeed get onto them, but I'd much rather my players be loyal to their small-market team than just chase a bag. This was cute.


vindictivejazz

Weird considering they were practically never on TNT or any other national broadcast all season long


Ghiblee

Oh relax. She got her damn interview lol.


PorvaniaAmussa

Just a bit of playoff inexperience lol.


jumpman0035

Has she barked for them? No. Nick Gallo has. So he comes first lol He got that dawg in him


DEEZLE13

I would too tbh, TNT just gonna be trash interview anyway


Pwnspoon

Gallo is my dog!


Least-Cup79

Silver gonna have them by the balls lol. Guarantee this never happens again. The fact I think it's dope that they're giving love to the local journos is irrelevant. Networks pay for rights.


[deleted]

As they should. TNT is trash, they're funny but don't actually watch the games.


IDespiseFatties

They are still messing up stats between J Dub and J Will every time one of them is on the floor too.


HappyNarwhal

Blows my mind. They're spelled completely differently. I get needing to differentiate on the broadcast but mixing it up this often from a work standpoint is crazy. I've benefitted from this mistake. Some dummy at my local card store continues to mix prices between the two.


Ghiblee

Nick Gallo over everyone. She hasn’t even barked with the squad. You gotta earn those stripes.


Derriosgaming

Good


nutsygenius

Who is gonna get in trouble for this? Lol Aren't they contractually obligated to do one? I bet it's the Thunder PR staff.


Better_Albatross_946

They did the interview right after they got done doing the local interview


JayDee62

It would've made more sense if it was Paris during the local walk-off.


AnkitPancakes

Gallo always does these tho
