GAME 6 Playoffs 2024: Oklahoma City Thunder (2-3) vs. Dallas Mavericks (3-2)

[The Jom]

They jumped us. 8 on 5. Can we have 8 on our side for part of the second half please?

[Mavs2021]

For comparisation. Kyrie is putting up worse numbers than THJ's season averages.

No no he is play-making the whole series. Tell me again somebody like Simons wouldn´t help right now. This team is an offensive mess.

[KillerLeft]

Luka is shooting and moving well. If he comes out and just plays the 2nd half, rather than counting SGA’s calls, AND if the team stops turning the ball over, the Mavs will win by double digits.

[BolsDamols]

To those that took a bathroom break at 42-40 Mavs, well, shit happened

Truth

[Luka77]

Kidd saving his TO for next season

[Chicagojk]

No complain about the refs. Just can’t turn the ball over and that lead to easy baskets.

[donzingis38]

How do the Thunder have 25 more shots at the half?!

Just 14. I mean, still a lot more

[dirkfansince1998]

And as usual. Worst +/- Gafford. Best +/- Lively. No clue why Gafford is getting more minutes.

We're down 16. We aren't winning by double figures. I'll be happy with having a chance at the end of the game at this point.

[Luka77]

Kidd has no offense it pick and roles and isos by Luka and Kyrie

[Mavs2021]

Sure. In case you missed it we are down 16, thanks to Luka make endless dumb decisions and once again complaining to the refs, when we were on a 15-2 run, took the lead at 42-40. Also Kyrie (and Kidd) the leaders. Yeah right. Brunson would have told Luka to shut the f*** up about ten times in that quarter alone. Dirk, too. Just sitting there. Tell Luka to shut the fuck up. Does nobody in this organisation any fucking balls. We could have finished them, if Luka focused on basketball, instead we are going seven with these inferior bums.

What does he even want? Dort and Chet had three fouls each. They outscored us 24-6 in the final six minutes. Yeah that was the refs fault.

16 points is nothing in the NBA.

HOW the teams are playing is everything.

[Luka77]

Why can this team never protect home court?

[BolsDamols]

To be fair, Kyrie is trying to be aggressive, but I guess its never been more obvious how his small stature is limiting him - I mean he is being held by guys like Isaiah Joe and Cason Wallace. Pretty good but not world beaters.

[donzingis38]

Luka's complaining is definitely changing the team's vibes.

It's not looking good.

[GATA]

Kyrie is not even playable in this series

[RasheedsBigWhiteSpot]

I've never seen someone who so easily takes themselves out of a game like Luka.

Whoever told him to STFU and just play before G5 is a true Zen Master.

Oh, I totally agree that if he keeps barking at the refs this game is over.

I guess I’m just hoping he will stop and focused on what I believe will happen if he does, rather than being angry over something I have zero control over. 

If he keeps whining, and they keep turning the ball over, and Kyrie doesn’t pick it up, they are going to lose. That’s clear.

[dirkfansince1998]

He has no rhythm. He is super passive. And all of a sudden he is trying to force stuff.
