This is crazy to me. Has a championship team in nba, nfl, mlb ever done this before?!

gdiz.bsky.social•4 hours ago

they so young didn't know how to open the bottles...then bounced...

dougsfc97.bsky.social•16 hours ago

They were as bored as we were. Series took like three weeks with all the off days. Zzzzzzzzzz

broadfawn.bsky.social•1 day ago

crying, even they know that ring is fake

satanicpandick.bsky.social•23 hours ago

You've got to be completely out of your mind to think the NBA rigged an entire season for Oklahoma City.

broadfawn.bsky.social•18 hours ago

nobody said that lol. their ring is fake in the sense they went to 7 in two different series and mainly won because of injuries

satanicpandick.bsky.social•15 hours ago

So their ring is "fake" because they won all of the games they needed to win?

Cry me a fucking river. No championship team in history has ever won a real title by your absurdly childish requirements.

broadfawn.bsky.social•15 hours ago

dude Im a Nuggets fan, I still have to hear people bitch about beating an 8,4,7 and 8 seed in their championship run. no “50 win” teams beaten or whatever. I generally don’t put asterisks next to things. even the Bubble I think is legit. but this playoff will be remembered for halis “what if” injury

satanicpandick.bsky.social•14 hours ago

Literally every championship has a ton of asterisks if you're dumb enough about it. What was OKC supposed to do? Pause the game and wait for Hali to get healthy? Or maybe suspend the second round series against Denver until the Nuggets learn how to play defense?

Even they were bored with it all.

dsky8888.bsky.social•1 day ago

Maybe they felt guilty that ownership stole the team from Seattle?

They did play swell though.

randyw1993.bsky.social•18 hours ago

no, no one feels guilty that Seattle abandoned their team and it had to be rescued from the bargain bin. And yes, they've played well all year.

dsky8888.bsky.social•18 hours ago

Yeah, that's not how it went down, though it feels better to think that u go on and roll with it.

bakedbeanbandit.bsky.social•19 hours ago

Dude let it go Sonics ownership sold it

dsky8888.bsky.social•18 hours ago

You may want to read up on some of the sale details and promises made to keep team in seattle.

Also, most of these guys were like 4 years old 🤣

There's nothing to celebrate in this nation rn, that's why

willieb108.bsky.social•17 hours ago

probably because of all the messed up stuff going on.

dstan1.bsky.social•18 hours ago

Fake title. Right up there with the bubble laker one.

jnlevine.bsky.social•15 hours ago

fake in what way

unknxwn.bsky.social•16 hours ago

You can feel @thompsonscribe.bsky.social 's bitterness at having to cover someone other than the Warriors winning a championship radiating off the screen

kwagnecht.bsky.social•16 hours ago

Or he’s just pointing out how milquetoast this flopping fuck of a franchise is

kellyoneill20.bsky.social•17 hours ago

Maybe because it's weird that America carries on as if we aren't crumbling. What are we doing?

williams4northward.bsky.social•1 day ago

Maybe they felt bad about Tyrese Halliburton getting so severely injued?

prodbytrell.bsky.social•18 hours ago

Are yall not going to take this story down? Your reporter took a video BEFORE their celebration..ah nvm ill just unfollow and follow more reliable sports journalism

They’re just a bunch of kids in sleepy Oklahoma!
They probably just went home and played video games.

financejone.bsky.social•18 hours ago

why is this story still up? It’s completely inaccurate. This isn’t their locker room right after the game. We saw on the game broadcast the typical jubilant celebration with champagne beer and ski goggles. Did Ai write the article?

migueldehuachuca.bsky.social•17 hours ago

Most of the Thunder are too young to drink. Good on both teams, they both play beautiful basketball.

kwagnecht.bsky.social•16 hours ago

Boring ass franchise

So clever and original!

balsagna.bsky.social•6 hours ago

But realistically, bad joke aside, these people can live wherever they want outside of the season. And it just ended last I checked.

jimmyfig0418.bsky.social•18 hours ago

They are so young they probably have never opened a champagne bottle.

badonkadunk.bsky.social•19 hours ago

Existence is meaningless, life is pain, and nothing matters. Anyone who wasn't born before 1986 knows this. Congrats to the OKC Thunder.

sharpenyourchisels.bsky.social•1 day ago

Deep down, at least in the moment, they will feel like they didn't really get to beat the team they wanted to beat.

The team they wanted to beat wasn't out there once Haliburton went down.

The vibes will change tomorrow, but for now it feels like they didn't get to truly defeat the Pacers.

sharpenyourchisels.bsky.social•1 day ago

Anyone who is hyper-competitive, or knows someone who is, will tell you they don't get the same satisfaction from winning when it feels like there was outside help.

They will wake up fresh and excited.

prodbytrell.bsky.social•18 hours ago

…tf are you talking about. This video/article is inaccurate as there are tons of videos on IG of them going crazy in the locker room. Secondly, injuries are a part of ALL competitive sports, you play who is in front of you. You just made up your own head canon
