OKC going to win a Mickey Mouse ring requiring two major injuries in game sevens to win it. Disgusting.

East next season is going to be so bad.

What was the other injury?

[Who]

Indy look vulnerable right now.

I'd love to see Carlisle bring back Nembhard now instead of Sheppard or Mathurin. Get a 2nd ball-handler out there alongside McConnell to help steady to ship.

So much of Indy's offense and their ability to handle OKC's defensive pressure on the perimeter has been due to their dual ball-handlers.

Bring Nembhard back. Let everyone settle down again.

Aaron Gordon?s hamstring.

I think Aaron Gordon?

Dame
Tatum
Hali.

That takes out three playoff teams that were all top 6 seeds last season.

Siakam with some timely buckets to stop OKC from building momentum.

NBA has a real issue with achillies. Season needs to be shortened.

[Who]

I think OKC should have gone for the kill there to end Q1. Kept SGA and J-Dub on the court together. Go at Indy while they were rattled and try to build a 6-10pt lead by end of Q1.

They let their foot off the gas a bit.

Indy should be settled down now by start of Q2.

Tony Bradley playing in Game 7 of the Finals. My god.

These guys are all friends off the court.  I'm not sure it's really in the nature of NBA athletes to go after the blood in the water like that anymore.  Bird, Jordan, Kobe, they would have certainly done that.  But I'm willing to bet that OKC is pretty rattled about this too.

Also possible Giannis heads out West (maybe).

The East is WIDE open next year. I'm also not convinced NY/CLE are guaranteed to have similar awesome seasons. I don't see an "invincible" looking team in the East next year.

[Neurotic Guy]

Wow - just tuned in and read the thread.  Halliburton out?  Indy hanging tough though.

Yeah it is wide open. It?s why I like the Bane trade for the Magic. They should be able to compete next year.
