  1. Fake 1st seed this, fake 1st seed that

    Only one 1st seed won today

    But for real, just happy they played well today, still going to be a hard fought series

  2. TitaniumC4206

    Y’all gonna learn about 4th quarter JDub

  3. Celtics take a good look, this is what a 1 seed is supposed to look like

  4. GGezpzMuppy

    Fuck I want to jump on the Thunder bandwagon so bad, but the forthcoming giraffe dynasty battle does not allow it.

    Fucking ~~love~~ hate watching them play.

  5. revisioncloud

    As expected of a first seed vs another team without their best player

  6. We are out of Dort license plates at the paycom center, I repeat, we are out of Dort license plates at the paycom center.

  7. ITS 2011 AGAIN

    I hope people see how much joy these guys play with. It feels like old times in OKC ⚡️⚡️

  8. Parallel-Quality

    The demise of the Oklahoma City Thunder has been greatly exaggerated.

  9. Misdirected_Colors

    Some of y’all mothafuckas need to be in here apologizing.

  10. Excellent_Disaster34

    Pelican’s scored the same amount as game 1. OKC scored 30 more haha. Elevated the offense to another level

  11. Autistic_Puppy

    This is the Thunder’s “oh we are for fucking real” game

  12. Lu Dorts growth into the player he is right now has been remarkable. He defends at a terrific level, 40% from three and takes the most on our team, absolutely tortured Ingram

  13. Whiteouts are 4-0 (Thunder and Wolves). That’s what I call ethical crowds.

  14. Number333

    Great showing by the Thunder. Looked like a proper #1 seed taking care of business at home these first two.

  15. MikeGundy

    I love SGA & Chet trying to act stoic while Dub & J Will are just goofy af

  16. Where are the people overreacting from Game 1? This team is legit.

  17. jackaholicus

    OKC let everybody know who the fuck they are

  18. Chet is unbelievable

    MVP SGA is surgical with it

    Lu Dort torturing people

    Crowd rockin

    Young Thunder in the avatar state tonight⚡️⚡️

  19. dys0n_giddey

    Would’ve loved to have seen what Zion could do in this series.

    CJ and Ingram just bring nothing. (especially when BI is hobbled)

    Thunder sweep incoming…

  20. Awkward_Event1966

    Instagram doubters gonna be real quiet tn. Game 1 jitters are out

  21. OUEngineer17

    Thunder were terrifying on defense tonight. And their shots fell. Definitely real.

  22. thunder3029

    Possibly hot take, this was a better game than Game 1 for OKC

  23. Smart_Water

    OKC blowout playoff win? We really are in a new era.

  24. The league is not prepared for our future Thunder overlords

  25. Better_Albatross_946

    The Thunder played their worst game of the whole season and still won, r/nba overreacted. Thunder played their normal level and won by 30, I’m expecting an equal reaction from r/nba

  26. noreligionforus

    People who say the worse number one seed totally forget the ATL team that won like 60 games that one year.

  27. SaneSideUp

    The energy and togetherness of this team is genuinely unlike anything I’ve seen before

  28. BidenFedayeen

    The apology must be as loud as the disrespect.

  29. I became a Thunder fan back when KD was on the team, havent watched much since. I normally watch College basketball and was so happy to see them draft Jalen Williams as I though he was a stud in college. This team plays with so much life you rarely see in the NBA, its like watching a College basketball team but with full NBA talent.

  30. OKC2023champs

    LOOKS LIKE WE ARENT THE FAKE 1 SEED TONIGHT BOYS

  31. Haters: SGA can’t perform in the playoffs, he’s a free throw merchant!
    SGA: Drops 33 on 75% true shooting

  32. ForeingRedditor

    I’d be crying tears of joy if I were a thunder fan fr

  33. natural_lawg

    I’m sorry for sleeping on the Thunder. I was wrong to count them out.

  34. I smell butt ass. Gonna walk into the smoothie king center smelling BUTT ASS. This team got no lead. Our toughest player mentally is a 5’10 bench player. Herb Jones and Trey are my only two sweet kings they can stay.

    I’ll trade CJ for Killian Hayes

  35. amadea_saoirse

    0-25
    losing by 30+ in a playoff game
    ATO iso with no ball movement
    letting your “star” locked up for 2 playoff games in a row
    letting your “DPOY” candidate continuously get switched up off an opposing star

    All these has Willie Green’s fingerprints. Even if we get swept, I hope it exposes Willie Green’s incompetence so he finally gets fired.

  36. SandyMandy17

    Dort hasn’t made a defensive team in his career 🤣🤣🤣
