Sneak peek into what the team would look like if Dub hadn’t taken the leap. That second competent shot creator is indispensable. On to the next one.
Hard to win when Jdub is out and Shai is off, but yet here I am still mad.
What a pitiful close to a game. Shots were falling from deep and at the rim.
Rest up JDub. Let’s get the Mavs next game
I’m more mad that I bought a $16 Depression Beer. Next game homies ❤️
Shai was off. Had a lot of shots go half way down.
Giddey shouldn’t force the ball so much at the start of possessions. 15 shots is too much for him.
Joe has been off the last week or so. Whistle seemed inconsistent all night.
Call me a homer, but we got hacked a lot with lots of no calls.
We missed JDub especially for getting out on the fast break. We got destroyed on fast break point differential.
Rebounding wasn’t bad today but not enough turnovers and capitalizing on misses.
We gotta start games better.
I’m at work so I couldn’t watch. What happened? From the stats I see, We lost the turnover battle, Shai had a bad shooting night, they significantly outshot us in the paint, and ppl on twitter are calling out Giddey?
Get well soon Dub
Chet didnt have a good shooting game also. If Gordo isnt going to take shots he shouldnt start in place of JDub. He turned down way to many layups. This is sometimes were being unselfish is a detrimental to the team. As a layup is a better shot than a wide open 3.
Couldn’t watch the game any reason why JWill only played 7mins?
Give credit to the Pacers for a good game and move on. It just wasn’t the Thunder’s night.
Felt like chet had an off game. Im confused why so many are blaming giddey?
The third quarter was the only watchable portion of this game and even then, the last 90 seconds were horrendous
At least Shai got his 30 vs Pacers /s
Pacers outplayed us from start to finish. Gordon played decent but had so many opportunities to shoot but instead opted to make the next pass. Our bench scoring has been lackluster, when JDub gets back, we really need Gordon to be more assertive. I know I’m singling him out but I think he has it in him to be that 15 ppg scorer he was in Charlotte
Jdub come home…
This game came down to who has the better FO.
Similarly talented teams with or without Dub.
Two great coaches and schemes.
Similar ages.
Which rebuild had the hungriest front office?
This isn’t me being negative, I’m just thinking here, but if I had to guess, we’re gonna trade Biyombo, Gordon, Moose, and Maybe Giddey during off-season? What do you all think. I still feel like our D isn’t there just yet. When Chet is out we seem to get destroyed in the paint.
Horrible game from pretty much everyone, on to the next
Were those Muscala minutes at the end of the 3rd quarter necessary? Just brutal
Would’ve liked to see more JWill tonight. Thought he looked good and the team played well in his limited minutes.
What a weird game. We won rebound battle, they shot free throws better. It’s hard losing at home, a few bright spots. Not gonna lose any sleep over this one, that Dallas game next on national tv…we need to win. We might see them in post season
Jdub is important.
Hali plays like he’s on skates it’s gorgeous
Off game from Shai. Onto the next one.
Medicore effort, and sloppy play… Oh well, onto the next game.
Pacers fan here. It was a good time to watch the back and forth on this one. I know the shooting in the first half was tough but even with that, your talent is obvious. Y’all are rowdy and loud at home too, which was fun to see. If things go better for you than us in the playoffs, I think I’ll be a temporary OKC fan.
Shit the bed in the first quarter and it was an uphill battle for the rest of the game. We almost pulled the comeback off but it’s tough to win when you come out shooting like we did in that first half.
These types of games happen throughout a season, hopefully we swing back towards the median in the next one shooting lights out against the Mavs.
7 minutes only for JWill is crazy, Chet and Jaylin need minutes together.
Our shooting was so off tonight
I blame the dude who posted we’re winning 50 games before 20 losses
Rim protection was obscenely bad during the non-chet minutes. Indiana attacked mismatches all night long and got either a layup or free throw.
