Credit to the Thunder, for sure. As a Wolves fan, though, one thing I'd rather not hear about is the "years of heartbreak" that they've endured...

Love reading that last quote from Mike.

Awful, yes. But I feel like I've seen worse Wolves basketball. Thunder deserve a lot of credit here.

When it comes to irrationality, the Wolves have a leg up on the Thunder, so they can't rely on the Thunder to do their part - It's up to the Wolves to be fully deluded. đē

If the Thunder could also play with a crippling irrational disbelief, that would also be great.

Yeah, I get the discussion here is about points and that it's misguided to judge his performance solely on that, but in game 3 he had an urgency on both ends of the floor that he seemed to lack in game 4. Game 4 Ant did not seem as locked in, imo.

Mostly feel bad that a heluva NAW Naz Reid Game (with support from DDV) was wasted âšī¸

Well said!

He looked rattled, just like the Wolves in games 1 and 2. When conditions are right, Target Center has to be just as formidable a place to play as OKC's arena.

I think it has a 1980's ring to it (probably because it sounds close to "Teen Wolf" đ
) and of course the origin of the Wolves was in the 80's, so it just makes sense, right? Right?? đ

I can't help it, I love T-wolves đ

Including the crowd - good work, Target Center!

Great stuff. NAW's observations seem right on. He really helped spark the defensive intensity in the 4th that gave the Wolves some life. But they'll have to bring and maintain that for four quarters to have any chance.

Exactly this. Rudy raises the ceiling but also caps it.

This is where I'm at, too. Compared to the Mavs last year, nothing the Thunder did last night looked unstoppable. It felt like the Wolves just got rattled.

I'd argue it's reasonable at this point

Ah, Daishen - Vizier of Vibes, Herald of Hype, Pontiff of Point.

And that's weird because a couple of these games seemed winnable for GS if "Playoff Jimmy" showed up. The man is an enigma.

Maybe we could take a Naz Reid game away from Donte?

It's weird - it looks like he's trying to conserve energy or something

First time a King has ever been guillotine'd by a Frenchman, if I'm not mistaken.

Also it looks like his face just start bleeding out of nowhere... Yikes. đŦ
