Thomas Sorber comps: Physical, Advanced Stats, and Per40 from nbadraftcomp.herokuapp.com. I like the idea of a bigger Okongwu. Okongwu had a 7'2'' wingspan versus 7'6'' for Sorber.

Only thing I'm holding onto right now is that OKC was in this same spot in Denver Game 4. If they're really committed to the faithful recreation of that series, they have to be here right now.

OKC is committed to the bit. This is going 7.

Welp, I thought Hartenstein looked pretty good in his minutes. I understood (and supported) the decision to start single big, but seeing how badly they got beaten on the boards, think you have to consider >17 min. IND tied their playoff-high in TRBs and had their 4th-highest total of the season.

I can't stop thinking about Denver's defense watching this. Bottom-10 defense in the regular season made this offense look so broken for large stretches of that series. Hats off once again to the Nuggets.

Remember at halftime when Stephen A said he liked where the Wolves were better than where they were at halftime of Game 1?

Almost time for Mark to take a timeout to make them rewatch the 4Q of Knicks/Pacers.

The Thunder have now shot under 30% from three in 4/10 playoff games. They shot under 30% from three in 14/82 regular season games. Regardless of how this series plays out, I continue to think that this team needs a reliable high-volume shooter.

I still can’t fully get on board with Bluesky, it feels like a different universe here where there isn’t a genocide happening. Where 200+ people weren’t just murdered in 24hrs. Where the worst atrocity isnt being live streamed.
Being here feels like purposely turning on blinders.

Every field goal in Game 5 at Oklahoma City from the 4:00 mark of the 4th quarter until the 1:00 mark either tied the game or took the lead:

Hard not to see the lack of experience as an issue at this point. Even Mark wasting that challenge on the obvious Hartenstein foul. They're either going to be up by 20 in this series or they're going to be stumbling around trying to figure out ways to lose a close game.

Maybe this game doesn't have the obvious flashpoint like Game 1 did with the late fouling, but it's the same story. When they're playing well, they leave too many points on the table and then when they let Denver hang around and things get tight, they can't execute.

I think we all saw the cold stretches from 3 coming and knew that could be a recipe for disaster, but I can't believe the missed free throws. 8 missed in Game 1 and 7 missed tonight.

I don't understand the idea of creating MORE chances to fumble an inbounds, MORE chances to miss a free throw, MORE chances for them to get an OREB off a missed FT. You're literally one of the greatest defenses of all-time!! It's the only thing that was reliable tonight!!

To put Chris Finch's comments in perspective, over the past decade (300 individual seasons), OKC has the 4th-worst free throw differential per game (-5). If you look at free throw attempt rate differential, OKC ranks 3rd-worst. They get called for a ton of fouls! They don't get to the line!

And if you really want to focus on free throws per game, which don't tell the whole story, SGA's season wouldn't even rank in the top-10 in the last 5 seasons. 8.9 per game is not that exciting!

This just isn't true. SGA averaged 8.1 FTAs in last year's playoffs. His free throw attempt rate was .362. He wasn't even top-5 in free throws attempts per game last playoffs!

Also look at the percentage of his drives on which he draws fouls. It's high, but there are a half-dozen or so guys higher — some you'd expect (Giannis) and some more surprising (howdy, Austin Reaves).
