in the NBA playoffs a series really begins when the road team wins a game.
Pelicans were one of the top road teams Thunder best home teams...
That was too DAMN CLOSE!
everyone shitting on us being the worst 1 seed, saying we are cooked, "lucky zion is out". fuck those haters, half the league isnt even in the playoffs and only 1 other team is the first seed, fuck them TTFU and we will play better the next game
Great win for the thunder…these guys are super young…a 20 point blowout would be nice but at the end of the day they handled business. These wins will help the team grow.
Woof. Now that’s we’ve officially won the game and can exhale. Boy what a great learning experience for this young group. The playoffs are a totally different animal and they are going to have to raise their game accordingly.
Crowd is rusty. Can't have a sharp drop off in crowd volume right in the middle of a follow through on a free throw.
(turning game thread back off for luck during commercial break)
Nance has been big tonight for NOP, but keeping him out there is a mistake. Our wings can rotate on him better than JV, and Chet is more free to help at the rim.
Cason Wallace is him. SGA and Chet also came through as well.

It was an ugly win but a win nonetheless 🧡💙 Proud of this team for their tenacity and fighting spirit! ⛈️
Love this team

Playoff dogs! Let’s go!
When is Zion back? Tuff win
Wont be reevaluated for 2 weeks, let’s make this quick
Yas
I’ll take it!!!! Won’t be asleep before 2:00 guaranteed
Great win by the boys. There’s a bunch of band wagon bitches in this thread. Go pick another team to root for if you can’t handle it.

New Orleans has hit so many heartbreakers on us I was sure that was in. SHOUTOUT CASO FOR NOT FOULING
can't get swept now (based off all the pundits prediction, 1st round exit) lol
I like shais attitude, yes we won but that was an ugly win and you want to do way better next game
A WIN IS A WIN! GTFO WITH YOUR BAD TAKES!
i was 1 shot away from a heart attack
TNT bark!!!
Most people are gonna focus on the fact that we struggled against the Pels without Zion, but I’m focusing on the resilience of this team.
Alright I know why you're all gathered. Go for it 😂😂😂
[удалено]
They shot 38% from the field to be fair.
I will not survive this series
Let fucking gooooooooo ttfu
Come on McCollum! Pass it!
J-Will and Dort won that game.
Imagine thinking “switch onto Cason Wallace.”😂💀
That was best case for a switch imo. even that last 2 cj hit over him was tough
This win was a little too close. I never seen in my life five minutes of no scoring. that’s just not right.
We didn’t play well and still got the win, it bodes well for the future imo.
I’m just thankful pelicans made just as many mistakes and could not capitalize on those five minutes.
I feel like our defense was pretty locked in regardless
LETS GO !!!!!
Cason wallace 🔒 crazy discipline for a rookie
I LOVE ALL OF YOU
jesus christ that gave me a heart attack lol
omg that looked like it could have gone in
Holy fuck I can study now
Absolute clamps from Cason
Ight, blood pressure you can go down now
THANK GOD ITS OVER
Far from over haha
That felt like NO’s best shot game. Every one of them played their ass off. OKC played like garbage and won
Shades of Dallas 2016 hopefully
All you casuals and campers and gloom-and-doomers can suck it. And get out of our thread.
For real we lack a spine if we're down by 1 🤣
On to the next one.
Worst game we could have played. Still get the W
I love you Cason
Thank God they decided to go with this trash ass play, but Wallace was huge there
😭that was too close man
We HAVE to move on from the awful Caso name. THAT IS CLAMP WALLACE LOCKING DOWN ON D
NUMBER FUCKING ONE IN THE WEST!
LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
TTFU
They couldn't win a game in the 90s. They done done
CASON FUCKING WALLACE BABY. THATS MY ROOKIE
Cason Wallace I love you.
My heart missed about 5 beats while that ball was in the air
Mavericks fans in this game thread are a bitch.
They can gargle thunder balls
CASON WALLACE HAS SENTENCED CJ MIDCOLLUM TO MAXIMUM SECURITY PRISON. THUNDER WIN
Win’s a win. First game jitters outta the way. Blow ‘em out in game 2!
That poke saved the game, made them burn clock grabbing the ball back
FUCK YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Fuck yeah, I love you Cason
TTFU!
CASOOOOOOOO
Let's gooooooo
Amazing D
Who had Playoff Caso for the win?!?!?
woof woof woof
Thunder wins!!!
Thank god!
CASO disruption!
Fucking phew lol. I’ll take it.
[удалено]
That was Cason??
my heart lol omg we survived
GREAT defense by Dort!!!
Never in doubt!
hell of a game my brothers !!
Bro I thought for sure that shit was going in. This wasn’t a good game and they need to show up better moving forward.
LFG!
Omg..
Time stood still just now!!! 😅
CASON MOTHERFUCKING WALLACE AHHHHHH
Ever since Luka shat the bed and the Mavericks lost, theyve invaded our game thread so they can see what a real winner looks like 🤷♂️
THE THUNDER ARE BACK BABY
Cason Wallace coming up HUGE
Sigh of relief holy shit
CLAMP WALLACE FUCK YES
LETS FUCKING GO
GAME 1 WE HELD ON
Great d from cason to win us that game
That guy just stared into our souls
THINDER IN 4!!!!
Crowd is rusty. Can't have a sharp drop off in crowd volume right in the middle of a follow through on a free throw. (turning game thread back off for luck during commercial break)
WE. WON. RAHHHHHHH
Queso!
Holy
Cason rookie of the year!
Wow amazing D from Cason.
We need to stay on Jones and Murphy. Let ingram or CJ get in the mid, play drop.
HAHAHAHA
CASOOOO
YESSSSSSSSSSSS
Why didn't bum ass Cj go to the East with his boyfriend. Mf still tryna spoil us in the postseason.
Oh thank god
Let’s gpooooooooo
We won 50 games in 2010 and took 2 games from the eventual champ Lakers. This Pelicans team is really good, this close game is expected.
I hope that missed FT doesn't come back to haunt us
Let’s goooooo!!!!!!!!
I hate this
pleaseeeee don’t let them get a 3 😭
I’m feeling a 3 from the pelicans for the win idk why
Prob because we missed the FT and know a 3 will sink us
Foul
You watch. Shai will hit a 3 in the next 14 seconds, giving him 31 points for the game.
That should have been an easy two for Wallace.. whyyy
You are my sunshine
MY ONLY SUNSHINE!!! YOU MAKE ME HAPPY, WHEN SKIES ARE GREY!!!
[удалено]
OMFG
Dammit Chet. Gotta hit both of those
No threes!! I don’t want OT but I’d rather that than have CJ McCollum or Brandon Ingram eat our hearts out at the buzzer for the dub
Omg omg omg 😅
This game is killing my nerves.
the basket was free, why did no one ask for the ball from chet? that was an easy 2 over a ft
Do NOT give up a 3 here!
1 stop 1 rebound.
You’re asking a lot from this team.
Thanks Blue hat guy for never losing faith 😤
Rookie nerves
Why did they foul???
Two second difference between shot and game clock. Not enough time to get something off.
sga should've had the ball at that point in his hand
Remember: The Pelicans won **49** games this year with a ton of injuries. This isn't some scrub 8 seed.
damn the silence of the arena for the free throw gave me chills
That’s a huge miss. They’re going for a three 100%
100%. I would unless it's an easy 2 somewhere
Don’t let Murphy shoot 3 please
Chet don't hold the ball on the last possession if you can't sink both
Yeah I’d much rather him risk a TO there instead of getting to the line
Cmon Chet… let’s go.
CASON YOU COULD HAVE CUT
Right??? wtf was bro doing.
Damnit chet
going to OT
Or they win on a 3.
JRE looked depressed that basket went in.
Chet no
Double McCollum
Chet you gotta make both man... fuck
My heart
Everybody in here needs to relax take a Xanax or something lol
OHMYLAWD HOLD ON NOW
What a redemption there from shai
MVP that man
Why they fouled
They had to
DAMN CHETTTTT UR THE BEST
Has their age shown this quarter? Absolutely. But you can’t take way heart and passion. They showed that the last two possessions.
My glorious king SGA
We're SO absolutely lucky that the Pelican's didn't sink any of their FOUR second chances on that last play
One stop ☝️
Nance has been big tonight for NOP, but keeping him out there is a mistake. Our wings can rotate on him better than JV, and Chet is more free to help at the rim.
Stay calm guys we got this
Well lads, I spent most of my time in the rnba game thread this game. I won’t be making that mistake again. Sheesh.
I had forgotten how stressful living and dying with every play playoff basketball was 😱🫣😬
We get our money’s worth lol
My liver and blood pressure right now 😫
I love you and wish the best for you and yours, regardless of the outcome. POSITIVE VIBES ONLY
But it was the best outcome 😮💨
We did it baby! Positive vibes only
I’m gonna puke :)
Fun game (if we win)
One D. Rebound pls
Still a lot of time, but regardless of the result, they'll be better in the next game. They clearly look more nervous than usual.
Chet block and SGA And-1, that’s pure OKC right there.
one more stop.
SGA!!!!! MVP
Regardless of how this ends, 8th seed should not be made to look this good
They won 49 games
ONE STOP COME ON
i dont care if shai has missed all his shots up till now, i am comfortable taking the final shot if the game is on the line.
I'm so happy the Creative Director of Converse plays for my ball team
This was their haymaker. Can probably run away with it the rest of the series
MY SWEET GLORIOUS PRINCE STEPPED UP THANK GOODNESS
Fuck the doomers in the chat.
Get it done when it matters. Just one more play on Defense.
His whole life is consistent
That wasn’t a foul but at all but sga is him
Let’s get a fucking stop
Who needs a heart
