Its so interesting that we all buried the Mavs for the Kyrie trade. When really they gave them a washing machine and a 1st rounder 6 years from now. But I'm still waiting for Kyrie do something wild.

What a terrible call to end the game on. All ball, and they give him 3 shots.

I’ve never heard of this “if he gets all ball but the shooter doesn’t let go of the ball” thing until today.

Ultimately just a bad challenge by Daig. Shoulda let it go.

Yeah for sure.

I get why he did it. But we would have had the timeout and could have drawn up a play.

And also: we shouldn’t have let a 17 point lead evaporate. That was the real killer, and has been this whole series. We had too many “Thunder haven’t scored in six minutes” moments. Just keeping better pressure the whole game would have really changed the series.

Looking like we might get 3 game 7s. When is the last time that’s happened in the semis?

I really hope the nuggets or timberwolves just sweep the shit out of the mavs.

Unfortunate ending to that game.

I’m thundering up from the lake.

We just set up a projector and got everything ready with smores and junk food.
