Indiana had OKC on the ropes tonight and completely fell apart and they should do them in for this series.


agreed. Tonight was the game that would have tilted them to big title favorites. Now they are huge underdogs. Played awful down the stretch.

Lol not gonna call the Caruso horseshit but you're going to tag Nembhard with that? Gtfoh Scott. 
He's the one that got OKC past the Nuggets, too. I don't know why the NBA wants OKC to win, but they clearly do.

NBA is desperate for a face of the league and they have anointed Shai as that guy What they allow this clown to get away with on both sides of the floor is ridiculous. And it goes well beyond him. Dort, Carruso are allowed to play football on the defensive end while their opponents are called for touch fouls. This was evident in the Denver series with how they were allowed to play Jokic but Denver couldn't breathe on OKC.

OKC and Shai are just a byproduct of ref manufacturing. Outside of their Okie fans, no one really respects them as they know exactly what is going on. Shai is a free throw seeking merchant and the refs allow and enable this behavior. It's a terrible brand of basketball and hard to watch. James Harden 2.0 but might be even worse.

Had a feeling this would happen to the pacers do shaved some of my holdings to hedge for OKC. 

Smart. I may drop my ticket I don't see them winning this series. No sense in losing money over it.

funny thing about shai push off, its almost about 50-70% of his midranges have a forearm shiver to create separation. JDub is starting to develop a little bit of it too. so not only do they have 2 exceptional mid range guys, but 2 who use the forearm for the next several seasons.

I don't mind the pushoff. He's good at doing it discreetly. Every great scorer figures out what they can get away with. 

It's the choreographed diving bullshit that's a fucking beating to watch. Also Scott Foster.

So what I did, for posterity, is I trimmed from 5000 shares bought @ $.16 to 3600. 

With the 1400 shares sold at like $.38, I used that money to buy 800 shares of OKC winning it all @ .67

So the net net is that if OKC wins I will lose $264.

If IND wins I will win $3600.

This is essentially a ~+1360 or 13:1 odds.

13:1 odds that IND will win, in what is essentially a best of 3 now ain't too shabby.

Not a single post so far during game 4 of the NBA Finals. Does anybody really care?

Indiana losing Game 4 took the wind out of everyone’s sails. OKC is such an unlikable team and the inevitability of them winning sucks.

Edit: meant game 5. It would make complete sense that there were no current game 4 posts

Whoever wins tonight will win the series.

And with Halihurtin, I'm guessing it'll be OKC.

Btw, Fuck ABC for shit quality video.

And for not broadcasting in ATSC 3.0 1080P over the air in Austin.

Even if the Pacers win game 6, i don't see a way in hell they win a road game 7 at the Hillbilly barn. Them blowing game 4 really fucked them as now they are forced to win a road game at some point. OKC more consistently than Indiana can find that extra gear to close out the game.

Dear Gods of the NBA, please no more t-shirt wearing finals crowds.

And no more O.K.C. chants, for the love of all that is NBA holy.

 

Otherwise, congrats Sonics on your upcoming second NBA championship(?).

As much as I loathe the chants, I’ll take it over random hip hop/pop music cranked up beyond what Steve Kerr finds acceptable. I spent decades getting used to organ music and now I they play excerpts of mumble rap.
