I really don’t like Josh Giddey’s game..

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

Nice pocket pass by Kyrie.

What is he doing acting like a PG?

Josh Green is smart. You gotta like that connective tissue type plays he makes on a regular basis.

PJ Washington is having a good game. Major upgrade over Grant Williams.

Why did they take Chet & Giddey out?

Only 6min in. Jaylin Williams doesn't exactly provide the offense or defense of Chet. At least I Joe provides shooting that Giddey doesn't but Giddey was playing well to open Q3.

I'd like to see I Joe out there instead of Dort rather than Giddey. Their offense ain't working great. Joe over Dort to open up the offense.

Man, I do not like this lineup for OKC.

They have now taken SGA out. So Jalen Williams is the only creator on the floor.

G: I Joe
G: Wiggins
F: Jalen Williams
F: Lu Dort
C: Jaylin Williams

Two shooters in Joe and Wiggins but no ball-handlers, passers, shot-creators other than Jalen Williams.

OKC sure do change their lineup a lot. SGA in for the hurt Jalen Williams. Chet in for Dort. Better offensive balance now.

Cason Wallace and Gordon Hayward in now for I Joe and Jaylin Williams. Every 1-2 mins. 2 subs.

Too much change for me. I don't like all these lineup changes. I prefer more lineup stability.

4 major lineup changes in 6min. No time to settle in any of them.

G: C Wallace
G: Wiggins
F: SGA
F: Hayward
C: Chet

To my surprise I find myself rooting for Dallas to win this series.

No Giddey since the 6min mark in Q3.

Why is the coach icing his own player?

He was playing well.

Jalen Williams is a beautiful player.

He has some Scottie Pippen to him. How well rounded he is. How well suited he is to being a #2 option to SGA.
