Taylor Rooks in that draft kings commercial is remarkable

Couple of random thoughts

Really liked Rui out of Gonzaga and then he didn’t do much in Washington, found a good spot for him

Knicks are in really good shape in the East

made a post after game 3 that rui is a solid c/c+ player that most teams in the league would like to have but will never live up to where he was drafted and that hurts the perception of his career

0% with or without Luka.

Thunder are so much better than them on the perimeter. Much more athletic than this Rockets team. Add in Hardenstein and Chet there should be no reason why the Thunder shouldn't sweep.

That KD burner account should be a fun read tonight lol.

eh, he was nowhere near the worst lottery pick in the 2019 draft.

He is probably the 15th or 16th best player in his class.

I’m just hoping Dort doesn’t end any careers.

The last time the Thunder and Lakers met in the playoffs was the 2012 West Semifinals.

OKC won 4-1.

It was Kobe Bryant’s final playoff series.

The only time LeBron James played the Thunder in the playoffs was the 2012 NBA Finals.

Miami won 4-1.

It was LeBron’s first title.

I hope everybody just goes out there and has fun. Let’s all have a good time. Maybe get the Cavs to hand out orange slices for the boys or go get ice cream or something. Let’s just focus on enjoying ourselves and being our best

60%

OKC will not have Jdub unless this series goes to 7 games. Maybe they’re rusty after a long break like last year against the Nuggets in Game 1.

I want to give respect to the Lakers but they just have no interior/rim defensive presence versus a team that lives off of points in the paint and transition buckets.

I also read a graph that shows the Lakers are far and away the playoff leader in turnovers. I’m sure you can clean those up to an extent but that just spells disaster to me.

Yeah Lakers have the worst turnover differential in the playoffs and OKC has the best. Absolute matchup nightmare for LA.
