  1. per sources Jalen Williams and Chet Holmgren pump faked their way into the locker room.

  2. RalphLaurenII

    Absolute worst time of the year to have a 4 game shooting slump like we’ve had. True disasterclass, so disappointing.

    Onto a Do-or-Die Game 6.

  3. retrohypebeast

    hard to win a series averaging like 29% from 3 the past 4 games

  4. LugNutsDort

    25% from 3 the difference. We have to hit shots. Period.

  5. DortNameplates

    Shooting has gotten so bad I don’t trust anyone to score other than SGA.

  6. JohnnyBoyTrojan

    If you don’t make shots, you sadly get these results

  7. goodguybrian

    Get SGA some help. Boy our shooting has been trash.

  8. amari_prince

    Everyone being ass but Shai is flat out unacceptable.

    I would respect it if we lost on flat out superior shot making but this is pathetic from the supporting cast.

  9. goatmarino

    Didn’t expect jdub to be such a playoff dropper tbh

  10. ShabbyLiver

    Well shit, guess I gotta avoid the internet for 44 hours..

  11. The fact we aren’t shooting the first look, thw fact the ball is ending in dort possessions down the stretch of important games and the fact that every young guy looks scared to shoot needs to be addressed.

  12. fellowENT18

    We followed up a shameful sub-30% from 3 game with….. another shameful sub-30% from 3 game.

    Also Chet is 7 feet tall and had 4 rebounds in 38 minutes.

  13. Perry_Griggs

    We don’t deserve to win this series with the absolute garbage effort we’ve shown.

    Each loss was so winnable if we just shot average, damn shame.

  14. CarlinHicksCross

    Look, if you shoot 25 percent from 3 as a team and your 2nd option has 12 points, you’re not winning many of those.

    The completely collapse of dub as a ball handler and 2nd option and the absolute cratering of our wide open 3 point shooting will lose this series if we can’t turn it around.

  15. ifitsootsyou

    It’s really quite simple. We shoot like that from 3, ANYBODY shoots like that from 3, you lose the game 9 out of 10 times. Can’t expect to win playoff series shooting like that, not consistently anyways

  16. trappapii69

    Guys, I think we’re cooked but honestly this is really needed for their development. They exceeded expectations heavily but this is understandable. Luka is so fucking good at basketball, it’s sickening when he cooks us (Please win Game 6 and 7)

  17. avatarsokka

    I feel like that stretch where Joe missed back to back threes did it. Idk maybe nerves are getting to him

  18. Magictank2000

    tupac would still be alive if the okc thunder were the shooters

  19. Biased_buffalo0

    JDub has to take some of these contested 3s.

  20. The 3 point shot selection has been the difference in this series. We are turning down good looks from good shooters for contested, late in the clock shots from worse shooters. JDub has been the biggest offender.

  21. OKCbmoreandMD

    Scoring 92 at home coming off of last game is embarrassing. Need to put out an APB on Dub. We’re not winning the last two without him

  22. Objectitan

    Shai is going to be chewing some asses out in the locker room tonight 😭

  23. chuerta9

    Streets are saying Giddey was the only player besides Shai to shoot over 50% this game

  24. benedictrchua

    dub needs to let it fly from 3. what is this pussy shit?

  25. captaingelsino

    The Thunder has never in franchise history won a game with
    Giddey coming off the bench

  26. AzHaeez21

    This series has taught me that sga is ready for the big stage. Everyone else is a tad undercooked which was honestly to be expected. Remember, we have the best exec in basketball taking notes throughout these playoffs. 😤

  27. Fearless-Welcome-147

    I will end my life if Shai has to play another 1v5.

  28. southpawFA

    Interesting that everyone was cheering for Giddey to be benched only to see Isaiah Joe shoot 2-9 from the floor as a starter.

    Maybe it wasn’t all Giddey after all. Maybe we have deeper problems than we thought, such as being too timid when the time’s necessary.

  29. NecessaryBake405

    Surely someone will blame Giddey for the loss 🙄
