Dynasty is a stretch. They struggled against the Pacers..Imagine a revamped Warriors, Knicks or Clippers. Good finals tho.
Sure feels like windy is saying Indy lost it not okc winning. Look we all feel bad but can we please stop crapping on the thunder?
When Hal went down I never thought the Pacers were out of it. The team throughout the play-offs showed they had the depth and the heart to pull through.
Well deserved win for OKC.
They aren't winning every year. Yet they are going to tough out for years if healthy.
Blame coach sprain doesn’t equal play 😢 I blame coach. For this why didnt he veto ty means to play yall fuk. Up
With Tyress Healthy Pacers Win 🏀 🏆
Let’s be honest this title 🏆 isn’t fell legit every body knows it! 😏 it’s like a bubble title 😅 Indiana wasn’t the best team in the east and is Haliburton didn’t got hurt other history would have happened 🤨
I never liked the fact that they did that in terms of not calling timeout for your oppenent
For gods sake its not a world championship, get over it the USA is not the world…..
Asterisk
Thunder:
Carried all playoffs by refs refusing to let anybody breathe on Shai Dildos, letting Thunder defenders assault their opponents for 48 minutes every game, got taken to 7 games twice, and for 2.5 quarters looked to be in real jeopardy of losing game 7 at home to a team who watched their leader and heart and soul carried off the court. And the guy was finally cooking them after playing the whole series hurt.
ESPN:
iS tHiS thE sTaRt Of a DynAstY??
Dynasty? 😂 You must be joking. Trades, free agency, drafts and the pacers showed their weakness. Not happening. Win another one and talk about the potential dynasty.
Asterik champions *
I didn't watch Thunder until the Finals but I see with my own eyes now. Oh, this is why SGA is nicknamed "free throw merchant". Thunder is a good team but they needed a lot of help with no calls leading to free points, getting away with travels and push offs. Ghost calls leading to free throws, extra possessions, and foul trouble for Indy's guys defending well. I'm not an OKC or Indy fan but rooted for the Pacers seeing their great team basketball. The turnovers were atrocious, it's hard to not say they handed the Thunder the series. It was hard to watch but I rooted for Pacers when they had it rolling.
At some point, the team and medical staff need to step in and tell these players sorry you can’t play. Way too many Achilles injuries.
Pacers fan here. I was sad seeing Haliburtons disappointment on the floor. Praying for a speedy recovery Hali! He'llbe back sooner than anticipated:🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
Dynasty????!!! Haha what the h. They jokic and the night crew from Wendy’s, can’t man, and a pacers team that had no business being there if Tatum didn’t get hurt.
JWill annoyed me here. Super intense and making the point that this is a legit champion. No one was taking anything away from OKC man Brian was just taking us to the moment in the building when Hali went down.
Hated to see Halliburton go down with that type of injury. Even after is 3 3pointers the thunder was still leading. The Thunder played the Pacers 9 times this season and won 6 of them. The Thunder deserved this Championship.
The best part of the season is watching guys who didn’t make their JV team tell the NBA champs why their ring doesn’t count.
Toppin is really making excuses. He's been trash the whole series .
I feel like that it is disrespectful of him. He needs to be fired honestly. I mean no congratulations to the winning team or anything. He wanted it just as bad that's why he was crying. Game 7 of the finals! Tyreese, we hate to see you hurt we hope you get well but this is a sport we are prone to getting injured, especially when they are putting there all into it. The what if should be what if Pascal Siakam played more minutes and actually tried? They needed that championship experience and he gave up on them. That is the real what if.
Ethical hoops lost
The Warriors dynasty ended in 2022 when Draymond Superman punched Jordan Poole's lights out after they won their 4th ring, in their 6th Finals appearance in 8 years. These dudes can’t even get their facts straight. This was a great Finals matchup though both teams played amazing. Feel sick for Haliburton, hopefully he comes back even better.
Please, talk about Haliburton's injury tomorrow! OKC, KFC, UFC … Thunder are the Champs! SGA, PGA, USA … OKC won it all! OKC OKC OKC !!!
My 4 times yea he stamped as da Goat 🐐
If Chet can become a consistent 20 & 10 guy they can win at least 2 more
Man there is no dynasty period
ESPN's definition of a dynasty is winning 1 title. So we have already had the Nuggets dynasty, Celtics dynasty, and OKC dynasty in the last 3 years.
Woulda coulda should’ve thunder in 7!!
Thunder got lucky point blank. Hali was abt to kill OKC at home. *OKC Thunder 2025 Champs
Man shut yo 🐖 az up!
I was stationed at Al Udeid AB in 2010 as a Patriot missile operator. We were barely briefed on Iran. Just told to watch the skies. We could see their entire sky in 2010 and we knew when they would heat up missiles. I bet it was my missile site that fired back
Time for ESPN to ignore the Pacers for the next year
Wild that people will project Hali hitting a couple 3s, as a notoriously inconsistent player, onto the entire 48 minute game where they lost double digits. He played like 7 minutes Windy just hating
Other injuries in finals.
Colt Mccoy against Alabama in BCS championship game.
Salah against Real Madrid in the champions league final.
Ronaldo aganst France in the Euros final. I forget the year
JWill is just terrible.
Congratulations OKC! I'm just wondering, and this is a general question only, why is it that after every NBA finals, the media automatically talks about the new champion starting a dynasty? Since 2010, the only back-to-back champions have been the Warriors.
