OKC lost this game on the boards in the end. Defensive rebounding issues killed them.

Lol rigged review at the end there. The defender made the play.

Further proof that the rules and their intent are situationally fluid so long as they benefit the league

Absolute screw job by the refs there. Literally, you might as well flip a coin anymore with what is and is not a foul, even when being reviewed. So arbitrary.

That's the exact opposite call that they gave Brunson a few games back claiming that he "got the ball first", when he clearly didn't.

Crappy way for an incredible last five minutes to end.
Yup

In the end SGA really didn’t need to be jumping through the roof on what looked like would have been a really awkward desperation shot for Washington. 
Yup

Dallas were 1 win 2 losses vs Denver.
And 1 win 3 losses vs Minnesota.

In the regular season this year.

Whose fault was that? Terrible job by Sam Presti— he gets an absolute F from me. No excuse with the assets they have to leave this team short. Don’t give me the long game garbage. No guarantees in the NBA

Yeah and the Suns were 3 wins 0 losses vs Minnesota this year  ;D

Not tryna rain your parade and all tho. Any wins moving forward with Mavs is gonna be money. Had them advancing to the WCF anyways.

Sure OKC the #1 seed lost in the 2nd round, but at least they didn't do something unforgivable like loose one game in a five game series to a team that shot 45% from three. That would mean they are losers and frauds.

Yes they would. That’s what I’m hoping for

Sam Presti could have used draft picks to get another rebounder, or traded for PJ Washington himself. I'm guessing the for sure asked about him, since they ended up getting hayward from CHA. But instead sat on his pile of assets and probably cost OKC a conference finals appearance.

In fact, he helped Dallas get Gafford by trading them a 2024 first in exchange for a 2028 swap.
