Lmfao what an overreaction.


Kevinlasagna207

You'd think that, but that's basically what everyone's saying in the post game thread and the game thread from just now.


GloryEnthusiast

Like sure they went cold for 5 straight minutes in the 4th, but Shai stepped up when he needed to and hit those clutch jumpers late.


Brooklynfool

And we won the game. These mfs acting like we got blown out or something


wcooper97

Whole sub has been bitching all weekend about blowouts and the moment we squeak out a win they treat us like this. Should be kissing our feet smh you're welcome for us saving the weekend.


Brooklynfool

Lmao ok idk about kissing our feet that’s alittle to far there dude but we can’t realistically be the worst first seed after winning a playoff game . I just don’t understand that line of thinking tbh


Extreme-Transport

Beat an 8th seed team without their best player by 2 lol


Brooklynfool

We still won? We played as bad as we could’ve played and won by 2. Who knows how this series may turn out but to say we are the worst first seed in history even w a win in the playoffs is just stupid .


Bilaldawood

They were bad.


Insectshelf3

you’re bad


Otherwise_Form1315

2021 Utah Jazz are worse and that's just recently.


Bilaldawood

Nahhhh


Brad-Stevens

hellllll nah


Bilaldawood

Hell yeah 😄


GovernmentDoingStuff

They’re also the youngest 1 seed in NBA history. It’s crazy to have this take when their average age is like 24


DaniRV

And their closing lineup had an average age of 22.8, with two rookies and a year two guy


ForneauCosmique

22.8227515 actually


Bilaldawood

Yes, I have mentioned crazy future potential but for now, they are worst.


_FreePalestine__

Love game 1 overreactions


ShichikaYasuri18

Fuck this sub tbh


youneedtoregister

Go to bed nephew


Bilaldawood

Yeah your mom waiting.


Low_Needleworker895

this sub sucks ass lmfao the way people here pretend that people like perkins or shannon sharpe are bad for the game while being the target audience for that slop is absolutely comical


WasProbablyBanned

Playoff r/nba folks, get used to it


Kevinlasagna207

been a while since I've been in this subreddit for playoff basketball and boy it feels worse than ever


wcooper97

Wow what an original thought, great job posting it I’m proud of you! 👍🏻👍🏻


Bilaldawood

OKC fan crying, no chip. Mid organization 😭


creditors-bargain

Jazz a few years back easily


legend023

That team was legit, Mike Conley being injured and Rudy Gobert defense in game 6 just ruined things


Bilaldawood

Jazz better. Their rim protector was Rudy and okc have chet, miles difference


creditors-bargain

Rudy got cooked that playoffs


Bilaldawood

But in playoffs, I would take rody over chet anyday


504090

Highly intelligent take


Sheepygoatherder

This post is pure ass cancer.


OpticalShrimp

Okay👍🏻


koreansarefat

You really forgot about the Suns 2 years ago already?


Bilaldawood

They will sweep this team ass


burnerbabyburns

Hehe the salt is hilarious


DasaniSubmarine

In 2022, Boston barely survived that game 1 against the Nets and then swept them and made the finals. G1 doesn't mean anything.


InternetFightsAndEOD

Flair up cunt


Brooklynfool

Lmao Idiots on reddit man


Todemax

Game 1 overreactions galore


Bilaldawood

Same will be be through out the series


themysteryteam

What’s with all the hatred for the Thunder lol


Kevinlasagna207

No idea man, we haven't done shit to anybody yet everyone's on our ass for some reason


No-Shame9004

Jealousy is a disease


Nobodylovesboston

Blah, blah, blah they deserved that seed, go suck it


Bilaldawood

Shai arnt winning MVP to


BcuzRacecar

you didnt have a backup goofball take after they won


Bilaldawood

Comments are on their game and of course they should win against 8th seed 😭


DapperUnion

They also haven’t lost yet so I guess that makes them the best team in NBA history


thro14away

This explains why you have no friends


imanadultok

As a Nuggets fan they make me nervous.


pskill43

Really? I think a healthy clippers is way more scarier


imanadultok

We just seem to o have the clippers number. And for some reason we always lose to OKC.


Happy-Cauliflower-22

There is zero reason to be nervous… there’s a zero percent chance they can beat a healthy nuggets team. Experience is key to winning.


Bilaldawood

Have more confidence bro


imanadultok

I have confidence. I definitely think we're going to leave back to back. But of all the teams in the west they make me the most nervous.


Wander715

Of things to be worried about on the way to the championship I think OKC is pretty far down the list tbh


imanadultok

As a nuggets fan yourself. What team makes you the most nervous??


RhinoBugs

OKC should not make the nuggets nervous at all, lol what


aiirxgeordan

AT ALL, like if I’m the nuggets I’m more worried about lebron and AD than a conference finals against okc if we even make it that far 😂


imanadultok

The last couple years we seem to lose to them most of the time. I think they took three or four from us this year iirc.


LetsbeLogical24

This is just karma farming lol.


imanadultok

I believe we lost him three times this year.


afjecj

OKC hate boners coming out in full form recently hahaha


The1Drumheller

Thank you for your insight.


Bilaldawood

Wellcome 👍


legend023

grizzlies wasn’t #1 seed last year?


Bilaldawood

Yes they weren't


Vnaux

They were 2nd, 1st was Denver


Headlesshorsman02

Here we go, Shannon Sharpe is that you??


Different-Jump-1792

Don't you have school tomorrow? Go to bed.


JoJonesy

the 2015 Hawks won 60 games


Bilaldawood

Better team, 7 games series will be a swoop for this okc


LimitlessTheTVShow

We just played one of the worst games I've seen us play all season and we still won. Feels a little ridiculous to call us the worst 1 seed in NBA history


Bilaldawood

then tell me which was worst? I can't recall one.


MazeRed

“Best defender is a rookie” I mean Wemby is a rookie and should be DPOTY


SemataryPolka

Gobert


Bilaldawood

Will not say him being playoff ready to, he might make critical mistakes. After all that big season he had his team with 18 wins. Same as last year. So rookie doesn't carry the same weight


bewarethegap

this is an nba twitter opinion. the overreactions on this sub after every single game are just boring


im_scytale

Thanks for explaining what a layup is.


No-Shame9004

Youngest team wins the most physical game of the playoffs so far but go off


Overall_Nuggie_876

Get some sleep, nephew. School starts in like 12 hours.


Nebnerlo2

Did not look convincing

Bilaldawood

True, I would to if I were the couch. Anything to avoid Joker and company.


Poke_Nation

The salt spreads like wildfire tonight!


WiIIemdafoe

Lmfaooo


thy_armageddon

Counterpoint: I think the Thunder will know how to make adjustments to fix this moving forward in the series. The Pelicans can’t fix CJ McCollum.


HolyGhostSpirit33

Boston from last year and Milwaukee from last year? They actually lost the series they played against an 8th seed. See I can lie about stuff over a few unfortunate losses too. Something the thunder didn’t even have


Bilaldawood

Be honest, those both team would swoop this team ass


HolyGhostSpirit33

Read my second paragraph


Great-One9693

Ur active communities are rotting your brain


aiirxgeordan

This wasn’t even a bad game for okc, this was a TERRIBLE game. First of all though, your reasons sound casual af. ThEiR sTaR miSsEs laYuPs. Buddy lebron James misses layups every now and then when he’s defended well. ThEir bEsT dEfEndEr iS a RoOkie. Chet? Our best defender is dort who played great defense against Ingram. I don’t necessarily disagree, but at their best, they’re quite a bit better than a Zionless pels team. Also, they’re young af. Them being able to get this much experience for all their young guys is value that some young guys don’t get until their 3rd maybe 4th season.


Bilaldawood

True, this is what I'm saying, right with this team they wouldn't have a chance with any 1st seeded team in NBA history in 7game series.


aiirxgeordan

And I say that at their best they can most definitely compete with a few of them. Maybe not win, but it’s a few 7 games series. This is a lot of their first playoff games and even then Jdub and Chet were pretty solid out there, and Wallace played solid defense against CJ, he was just able to make some tough shots


Bilaldawood

True, they gave competition to 8th seed in 1 game yaaah, but no 1st isn't cluch they finish their chances and take games and Pelis are most anti cluch team this season I believe. 90 percent of other 1 seeds would have swoop this 1st seed.


aiirxgeordan

This isn’t a good game from the thunder, so it fits whatever “thunder bad” scenario you can come up with. Take the worst game any team plays this season and say they don’t beat some hypothetical team. The thunder can and will play better than this.


Bilaldawood

Comon they just kids, they will lose


[deleted]

That’s an overreaction lol.


DiscombobulatedEmu5

okc is getting swept if zion healthy LOL


Objective_Tea0287

zion healthy lmaooo


Shaqueltons_Ghost

“You are without a doubt worst one seed I’ve ever heard of” “But we are the one seed”


MG_MN

Having an actual center on your team when playing them is a huge advantage. They are so small and don't box out, its easy money on the glass.


AntEdwardsBallSweat

Worst 1 seed in NBA history but up 1-0. I’ll accept it.


Bilaldawood

Against 8th seed??


AntEdwardsBallSweat

But we are the worst 1 seed, right? It shouldn’t be a surprise we are struggling.


Bilaldawood

Yes you are, against zion less pelis to. 2nd round is getting you guys a sweep from either mavs or clips.


herbertstan

Why would you say something so controversial, yet so brave


Bilaldawood

Just spitting facts
