re: Pels (0-3) vs Thunder (3-0)

To be honest I did not see this coming. To hold any team to 94 or less 4 games in a row as well. Thought NO was going to win after 3rd quarter. But all season someone stepped up for OKC and it was Giddy tonight. Its all gravy any wins going forward.

“The Thunder earned its second sweep in team history. The first? Round 1 against the Mavericks in OKC’s 2012 Finals run”

“Thunder PR:

After tonight’s 97-89 win over the New Orleans Pelicans, the Oklahoma City Thunder becomes the youngest team to win a playoff series in NBA history”

Ingram was straight up unplayable tonight and largely for this series. Didn’t even look like he belonged on the same court as OKC and at times didn’t even look like an nba level player. Wasn’t even a top 10 player in this series. Embarrassing. He legit got adopted by Lou Dort. Dort was out there playing little tikes hoops with his infant son.

OKC went on an 18-2 run after CJ missed the layup on a fast break that would've put the Pels up 7.

CJ scores that layup... OKC likely calls timeout and the Blender is rocking

Instead he misses and Giddey drains a 3... the Blender goes quiet and the feeling of impending doom kicks in

Also... the amount of open shots we missed in this series is laughable... sub-30% Joel said on open 3s coming into the game and I'm sure tonight didn't raise that number any... NBA players should hit 40%+ on open 3 pointers... OKC was at like 48% whole Joel discussed the number

But it's not just 3s... it felt like we missed an inordinate amount of layups too

Let's be real,if we won this game it just prolongs the inevitable and maybe gives the front office false hope on running it back
