@JWeinbachNBA So lucky….if you didn’t know better you might think they were the 1 seed.

The Thunder were big winners from the last day of the regular season. By Denver clinching the No. 3 seed with a win over San Antonio, OKC will not have to see the Nuggets or Spurs until the Western Conference Finals. The defending champions have the easiest path in the West.

@tatemays Give me Iowa St!!

#TateMadness It’s starting to get real - survive and advance. I’m taking Michigan

@tatemays Give me Purdue too #TateMadness

I’m taking Purdue. #TateMadness

@realtalkejlt He’s setting himself up to get humbled in the playoffs. Will be interesting to see how he handles it if / when they get bounced.

He’s getting away with a lot of behavior other players got clowned for…not saying I have a problem with him doing it but just intrigued how different players get different responses for doing the same thing

@tatemays I’ll ride with UConn… #tatemadness

Saturday #TateMadness results. Winners need 1 today Losers need 6.

@tatemays Give me Arkansas…

#TateMadness Friday results. Winners need 1 today Losers need 5.

@tatemays Give me Kentucky, Virginia, Miami, and Iowa.

Day 1 #TateMadness results. Those riding with the Badgers took a hit. Nice to see a couple of upset picks hit. Winners pick 2 today, losers can pick 4 to continue.

@tatemays I know right..booked this cruise last fall. Killing me not to be in town.

@tjp_21 What a great time to get out of OKC!

#TateMadness 2026

@royceyoung From where I was in the arena it looked way too close for comfort. Was amazed he got it there.

By the way, I totally thought Aaron Gordon's full court heave was going in.

@WorldWideWob GG Wob. Appreciate the actual basketball analysis. Still a lot to be excited about with your Knicks. Would love to see an OKC- Knicks Finals matchup.

Knicks 40-23. Thoughts. @PlayProphetX.

@BrandonRahbar We better analyze it in super slow motion from every angle before we can start calling for Middleton to be suspended for the rest of the season.

Chet got tripped by Khris Middleton. Chet stayed down for a bit. Tried to stay in the game but goes to the bench. This very clear trip was a common foul. No review. No flagrant 1. No flagrant 2. No ejection.

@CrainNBA Especially if it shakes out Spurs (1), Nuggets (4), Wolves (5)….

That’s exactly right. OKC would much prefer to be the No. 2 seed with a healthy roster than the No. 1 seed and limping into tue playoffs.

@adammcginnis @Domo8186 I’m not even sure an entire roster of players would go all out to win a tournament that enabled their FO to possibly draft their replacement. Especially on a team with an already less than healthy culture.

@Domo8186 Play in teams would tank to miss playoffs to win this tourney, still doesn't "fix" anything

Adam Silver gotta go man lol

I wasn’t in OKC 30 years ago, but for all those who were, I think this sums things up pretty well.

@GabeIkard Man…feel bad for him. You know it’s a risk, but no competitor sits out the Finals

Genuine concern throughout the entire crowd for Tyrese Haliburton. Not showing the replay in here. Achilles?

@cfitzfox Have to close out the possessions with rebounds

A Thunder Defensive Clinic in the first half.

Great defense, but not finishing the possessions off with the defensive board. Should be a 20+ point lead. Can’t take the foot off the gas #ThunderUp

Nothing but love for the Loud & Loyal that stayed up past 3:30 AM to welcome the squad home 🫶

@adammcginnis Wow… I’m at the arena watching on the big screen. Place was rocking in the 4th

@tjp_21 Congrats! defense showed up in the 4th

Caruso is always shocked when they finally call him for his regular arm grabs
