    unpopular opinion: okc woulda killed lakers as well, such a great team, so underrated

      Killed as in beaten Lakers in 1st round series? I agree. But it would have been something like 4-2. The Thunder struggled against the Lakers in the regular season, heck they stole a game from Denver to avoid the sweep, they would have made life tough for OKC. I actually think they're pretty happy to "only" be up against the Clippers or Mavs in the next round.

      @@BaseballStarAaron Totally agree. Lakers were in the play-in I mean that says it all really. But as an OKC fan, Lakers were our "boogie man" team all year and always seemed to play great against us for whatever reason. I still think we win a series against the Lakers, but again, it would have been tough.

      I think the thunder are definitely the better overall team but the lakers match up perfectly with them so it definitely woulda been close

    JDUB shot 43% from 3 on 3.4 attempts a game.

    Okc are also 3-1 against Denver, including a blowout victory in Denver. I don’t think they go to the finals, but I think they’re a hard matchup for anyone that steps on the court with them. The only thing stopping them is if they’re not hitting their open looks. They have some streakiness sometimes and just can’t get their shots to fall, but they nearly always generate good looks with their patience and elite ball movement

    Giddey player of Game 3 and Lead OKC to victory in the 4th with 3 3's when the shit was on and had a gritty , physical presence with a crucial strip on an 8-0 run.....wtf #Thunderup #Giddeyup Much love from Australia.You been watching the match ups because teams find a 6'8 guard daunting to handle flat out!!! They have switched defensive setups all year to contain him, whilst having to adjust to Chet being added to the mix at the same time. the whole team and i mean the 11 they play are a defensive juggernaut. Offensively brutal and clutch as well, all 11, another point on Giddey #SLOBWizard

    It’s hilarious because people really haven’t been watching and don’t understand that nobody in the nba has figured out OKC’s style of play yet. SGA is literally unguardable
