@NugsGetBuckets Funny, you’d think “the best player in the world by far” could get his team past the first round; news flash, he did.

What we all learned in the playoffs this year:
- Embiid will never make the ECF
- Thunder are better if SGA’s on the bench
- Jokic is the best player in the world by far
English
@LakersSpin No. His hands aren’t touching the ball. The actual replay the showed was very clear that he didn’t touch the ball until it was over the cylinder. Grow up.
English
@UncleJed44 So you're saying his hands were on the ball before it was over the cylinder?
English
Bro they really outlawed the alley oop last night.
One of the most exciting plays in NBA history has been removed from the game forever to help OKC.
RIP
English
@DreamShake555 @Jacobtheclipper Tells me Lakers aren’t a multi-year threat.
English
@UncleJed44 @Jacobtheclipper I don't like the Lakers, I want them to lose. Most people that aren't Lakers fans hate them, the fact that most people from all other fanbases are defending them should tell you everything that you need to know.
English
@DreamShake555 @Jacobtheclipper You didn’t see Smart and AR bear-hugging SGA all night without getting called. You’re a fanboy whose team is getting dog walked.
English
@UncleJed44 @Jacobtheclipper It's more than SGA, and the Thunder flopping. The Thunder are routinely allowed to be more physical than their opponents. I like watching physical basketball, but not if the officiating doesn't have parity. Also I was talking about the teams watchability, not whose better.
English
@DreamShake555 @Jacobtheclipper Didn’t win a ring either. Lots of players do more embellishing than SGA, so it’s only viral because he’s the deserving MVP. Other teams try to be physical, it just doesn’t work as well without the troupe of guards the Thunder have.
Winners win, losers whine.
English
@UncleJed44 @Jacobtheclipper They had a losing record in 2022. It's not about them winning, it's about their roster, play style & sometimes officiating. Russ with KD/Harden or PG/Melo did not play the same way as this current Thunder team
English
@DreamShake555 @Jacobtheclipper Go figure. They play the same way, just winning now.
English
@riley_stahura @Jacobtheclipper …and the whiners don’t have ANYTHING to prove the claims that context of fouls against OKC aren’t just as meaningful as those that help OKC.
English
@Jacobtheclipper This detail is so important because okc fans point at raw stats to claim okc doesn’t get more foul calls than everyone - the raw numbers don’t show the context of when the call happened, the state of the game, the tempo that foul calls kill, etc.
English
@PlayoffDude Yeah, we’re spoiled by having the superior team. Sucks for the rest of the league.
English
OKC fans: “They lost by 18, so the refs didn’t matter.”
Meanwhile the Lakers were up 5 before all those questionable calls suddenly started swinging everything toward OKC. Bad officiating affects momentum too, not just the final score.
OKC fans, man…
English
@Jacobtheclipper This is the problem with the internet warriors. Pick an angle and limit the view so it shows the narrative you want. He obviously hit the wrist on the way past.
English
@michaeljduarte Should have been a lot more called on Lakers. It is funny to see LeBron whine though. Two biggest whiners on one team.
English
What a sequence just now:
Jaxon Hayes tapped a rebound to LeBron James who had an open layup. Instead the refs called a foul on J. Williams. Then they huddled up and Ben Taylor called a foul on Jaxon Hayes too. Jump ball.
OKC wins the jump and drains a 3. It's a 13-point game
English
@john3572003 @michaeljduarte Smart and the rest bear-hugging our shooters all night long. Quit whining.
English
@michaeljduarte When Reddick going to use bench players when game counts. I never seen a team not fight back. With all of the pushing and grabbing to include reaching OKC is doing and no calls then the Lakers have to be physical back and stop complaining to refs if you want to win go take it.
English
@michaeljduarte Whiners whine even when a foul is called on Thunder. 90% of the questionable calls went in Lakers favor, so crawl back in Mommy’s basement.
English
@LeBron__legacy Yeah, except the last time they played him they were up by 30 before he hurt himself. Maybe the line would have Thunder dropped to -10 in OKC and -7 in LA. Lakers just don’t match up well against the Thunder, full strength or not.
English
OKC is so lucky Luka is out bro, ong the Lakers would win in 6 or 7 if he was playing.
Legion Hoops@LegionHoops
JUST IN: The Lakers officially confirm Luka Doncic will miss Game 2 in Oklahoma City.

MUST WATCH 👀 NBA Twitter is buzzing today after this flop by Shai Gilgeous Alexander last night…….
Was this flop the worst in NBA history?? 🤔🤔
English
Crazy what happens when the refs don't fall for his flops
Bleacher Report@BleacherReport
Shai scored less than 20 points for the first time ALL SEASON 🤯 The last time he scored under 20 was Game 3 of the 2025 Western Conference Finals vs the Timberwolves 😯
English
@NugsGetBuckets Yeah, that’s it🤣. How about that he only plays one side of the court?
English
@thatbigboi_D Whiny post. He was obviously coming off a screen and trying to recover defensively. No intent to hurt and not under his feet; just a little bump in the side. Simpletons looking for ghosts that don’t exist.
English
Alright man, when is the league going to fine Daigneault? This is very clearly coached behavior when the entire team goes out of their way to hurt opponents. Too bad Adam Silvers is gutless and spineless.

Their lil TikTok dancer ran under Kennard who was in the air SMH
English
@EMAWCaleb Coping pretty well, thank you. While you and your ilk spend so much time cobbling clips together and whining, were looking to the next game/series with an eye to the celebration at the end.
English
OKC fans can cope all they want and act like everyone plays this disgusting brand of basketball when it’s just him that does it every time down the floor, but everyone else knows he’s completely unwatchable. They’re the worst team to watch in the entire league and it’s his fault.
HeroOfTheDay@Hero_OfThe_Day
VIDEO: 2 minutes 15 seconds of Shai/OKC flops & flails. It’s only halftime of Game 1!! 😭😭
English
@WITNESSKJ …and lost by 18. Guess Lakers are reduced to moral victories vs real ones.
English
At Age 41 in Year 23, LeBron James just played in a playoff game against the back-to-back MVP and consensus best player in the world…
and LeBron James was BY FAR the best player on the floor. 🐐
