    This series was a constant reminder that 1) we desperately need a true big man in the paint, and 2) this team is very young still needs time mature.

  2. Sc0rch1ngDr4g0n

    This young Thunder team is only going to get better now that they have playoff experience.

    I love and hate it.

  3. unwinagainstable

    It’s going to be tough for the Thunder to make a comeback now that the series has ended

  4. RiggyTang

    Tony Brothers was fucking *cooking* tonight, goddamn

    But on a real note, stat sheets won’t show it, but Lively was the MVP tonight.

  5. petrichormus

    I can’t believe I muttered to myself “Down 16 we just gotta shave it a quarter at a time and we are good” and it actually happened.

  6. BadGuyNick

    Does this mean no more “what a pro wants” commercials?

  7. kimoalmoa

    I thought that shot was going in at the end based on the crowd reaction

    Painful end,but still a hell of a game and season for OKC

  8. Instantcoffees

    Brother, those freethrow bounces. My heart would stop if I was a fan of either team.

  9. ver72pacers

    That stretch from the timeout at 3:39 to the timeout at 0:27 in the fourth was just peak playoff basketball man. Elite shot making, close game, hyped crowd. So fun.

  10. Slashers23

    Props to SGA, man was trying his damnest to win that game.

  11. rattatatouille

    16 point halftime deficit, still wins.

    Finally got a close game too!

  12. LiesOfPushinP

    Tanking for Derrick Lively was the right call by the Mavs. If they didn’t shut Luka down at the end of last season to keep the pick and get Lively, I doubt they would have made it back to the WCF this year. Insane poise on the court and mental fortitude for a rookie, especially losing his mom right before the playoffs.

  13. Chessh2036

    Kyrie Irving is now 14-0 in closeout games. The best in NBA history.

  14. Prof-Ponderosa

    Steve Javie talking over the NBA ref with the most crucial review of the series is *The* most ESPN thing about this show

    How the fuck does a 7 footer only manage 3 rebounds?
