OKC winning this series 4-1. All of Twolves flaws being shown up, particularly lack of offence outside Edwards. Randle unreliable as a #2 option, McDaniels and Gobert defense first players and Father Time has hobbled Conley a bit.
If Shai just plays Ant to a draw (let alone beats him) the Thunder’s way better from player 2 down in the roster

I guess the nuggets were the 2nd best team in the league

Isn't it sad that Tumari is the biggest star of the Ayton trade?
Hold firm JG…. Don’t take the bait! lol 😂
Fortunately there is no player named Tumari.

But this is pretty depressing:



I wonder if we’ll ever find out if that was Jones or Ishbia or Bartelstein letting them have him.

I don’t know if it’s about letting them have Camara…it’s about why we had to include him to get Portland to do it

All I know is that it wasn't a pretty picture.

Very true. He could have been a focal point of our defense. I shutter to think how much difference he could have made for us.

Man, Robinson is such an incredible offensive rebounder. He moves Thomas Bryant out of the key like he's 128 pounds.

Pissed away the franchises only number 1 on Ayton and then we have to pay a 2nd defensive team player to trade away. Kill me. The Suns have successfully killed my passion for basketball.

One way to look at it…. We can’t possibly get any worse, right? RIGHT??!!!

Looks like he got hurt late in the game.

He had flashes of ISO but just didn’t pan.

He's getting good exposure playing in Portland.

I bet if he went into a darkroom and studied film, he'd be that much better.
