@@swizzlestick9170 He didn't even play against NY and they won. Wiggins is clearly a much better overall player. Of all the wing players OKC has I would rank Caruso as the worst overall because his offense stinks. All of them play good defense but they can actually shoot and score.
Wow! I'm always so interested in the mental and schematic aspect of basketball, but I haven't found anybody who seems to really understand what's going on (outside of thinking basketball). That breakdown was amazing! For maybe the first time I felt like I truly understand the nuts and bolts of a basketball game. This is coming from somebody who watches every Thunder game, including the tanking years. Thank you! Fantastic work
@HoopVenue Blessings to you and the family!🙏🏾👍🏾🙏🏾 Thanks for the breakdown from OKC & BOS games. We needed this game for true hooper, and we need this type of play and physical game back for real nba fans. Appreciate you.
I want to commend you for taking out the time to do such an in-depth and detailed breakdown of each quarter of the game while including coaching adjustments, individual player matchups, and performance. It was as spectacular as the game between those two teams. Will you be doing a breakdown of the OKC vs. Cavs game? I realize these type of videos take time and viewership matters, but this quality content separates you from most content creators as a longtime subscriber.
Shais gravity so insane that he was pulling 3 or 4 celtics players into the paint on multiple drives. Its bit like boston has bad defenders that need the help but when you are pulling jrue, white, brown, and kornet to your shot, you know your doing something right
@HoopVenue Tbh if I'm OKC I'm not making a trade. I'm not doing anything to mess with the chemistry of this extremely young team that looks like the best in the league. And they hang their hat on defense, Cam would be a worse defender than almost anyone they might trade for him (which is crazy to say because he's a neutral)
I’d say Cam’s definitely a better defender than Joe and Wiggins come playoff time. He’d also instantly be the better shooter on the team. Not saying I’d for sure pull the trigger (have to see what the deal looks like) but I do think it’d be a major upgrade that could just give them the edge they need.
@ryanamburgy2791 Whats the package to match Cam's 22mil salary? along with 2 FRPs which OKC could use to trade for Giannis in a year or two if they don't win the title this season
This video is a masterpiece and I say this as a person who just watched you elaborately and objectively detail the way this Thunder team defused the nuclear bomb that is my favorite nba franchise Boston Celtics. This video unironically should be in a museum or some kind of gallery dedicated to celebrating and talking ball.
As a Celtics fan , i love seeing good competition. Shai haa turned out to be an amazing leader along with being a free throw merchant. This will be very very posible for the finals
@@anubis4032 nah bro , i feel like the celtics are not taking this seriously . If they really want to win , they can . I guess they know they'll make the playoffs but they're saving their energy for the time whe it really matters. Like yes they're determined this year too but the drive they had last year blowing out almost every single team was insane. Hope they get it back up together ASAP
@@KhushwinderSingh-kx2jd yeah as a celtics fan im pretty worried tbh, but as a basketball fan super excited for the games we're gonna be getting this postseason!
I've said this on several other vids and theads like this one. I'll say it again. This shouldn't be a surprise to anyone who watches the NBA in general. Thunder been doing this all season. With more than 10 minutes to go, no lead is safe against these guys.
The upload was messed up due to copyright issues. It's only been up for a few minutes and unfortunately subscribers are having a bit of trouble finding it. Thanks for watching though!
Right now it's pretty clear that OKC should be considered the best team in the NBA and of course we'll know more after tonight's game in Cleveland where I think the Thunder will win. They don't even have their second best player Chet and they still beat NY. They also didn't have Mitchell or Caruso (although Caruso is a bit redundant). If the Thunder are healthy throughout the playoffs (and that's a big if...they're definitely injury prone) then nobody probably has much of a chance to beat them.
i was going to comment the same thing lol😆i was hoping someone was just as lost as i was b4 i made da comment.. dats the first time i heard of stock.. i see the NBA be making up their own categories of stats
@@FrowningFaceWithOpenMouth true, but I see no reason to believe that the Cavs are fraudulent or won't perform in the playoffs. Maybe they won't perform, maybe they'll dominate, but we don't know yet.
@@HoopVenue OKC vs Cavs “When the #1 defense meets the #1 offense” or Since you’ve already used this title what do you think of “When an unstoppable force meets an immovable object” as a title?
As a cavs fan if celtics are 100% they are impossible to beat i dont see teams even getting 2 games. I honestly think yall can match up perfectly vs the 2017 warriors
Uuuuhhh it's very much possible, they definitely match up pretty good against each other. It's gone come down to who remains healthy in the postseason. Who you got coming out the West?
Damn gng he the only one he actually did sum nobody was able to make a shot it was good defense but still my guys missed easy ones too. I hope to see yall in the finals tho respectfully
HONESTLY I HOPE WE GET A NUGGETS VS BUCKS FINALS THIS YEAR🤷🏾♂️👀JOKIC VS GIANNIS FOR RING 2 & DAME VS RUSS FOR RING 1 WOULD BE SUCH A GOOD WATCH & LEGACY DEFINING FOR BOTH SIDES🔥🔥
Yea thats obvious bro Boston at 100% imo is the greatest team ever on paper certainly the best 7 man line up ever. Coming from a Cavs and lakers fan who also like Okc and boston
Sorry for the late upload on this one guys! Took 2 days to dispute a copyright claim so I couldn't get it out until now. Hope you still enjoy!
can't see the video in my subscriptions 🤨
Unfortunately TH-cam broke my upload because of the former copyright stuff. Oh well.
We barely noticed lol at least it's here now
thanks for the effort on the videos!
Thanks for watching!
Amazing breakdown of OKC's defence!!! Can't wait to see Chet and Caruso back
Glad you enjoyed, and totally agree!
Caruso is redundant.
@@joel-s4w8xnot at all, he’s one of the best off-ball defenders and disrupters in the league

@ I think you’re just box score watching and not paying attention during the actual games. Caruso has been a huge addition when he’s healthy.

Great video! OKC has a great chance of winning it all this year, specially if they get some shooters (hopefully Cam Johnson)

Great work man we know what YT are about
Thank you!
Honestly I'm more excited to see Cavs vs OKC tonight than I was for this game. Historic regular season game!
fax celtics are a good team but there’s nothing entertaining about them
Amazing breakdown!! Thanks for helping me understand the meaning of basketball IQ👍🏽
As a Celtics fan , i love seeing good competition. Shai haa turned out to be an amazing leader along with being a free throw merchant. This will be very very posible for the finals
As a Cavs fan Celtics are the only team we are scared of too much firepower and if yall are fully healthy its GGs impossible to Guard

The Thunder are doing this without probably their best perimeter defender or their starting center too

Definitely!
As a Celtics fan I hope this is a finals preview
why? we lost
fuc the celtics
This was such an awesome game to be in attendance for
The Cavs and thunder make a video about it.
@HoopVenue
You have to do a breakdown from the game last night. OKC & CLE PLEASE.
Yes, we previewed the nba finals last night Denver nuggets vs Celtics
1:24 in my opinion there is a big advantage towards okc , a guard on a big is a big mismatch which okc could of exploited
This team with chet and caruso are definitely title contenders, chet’s versatility would have been handy in this game.
We shall see, OKC vs Cleveland might be a possibility
how does this only have 300 views?
Idek but it will prob improve soon HV is the best channel out there

Can someone tell me what he meant when shai had 5 stocks?
5 combined steals and blocks
Steals + Blocks!
Thank you id never heard that before 🤞🏾
i was going to comment the same thing lol😆i was hoping someone was just as lost as i was b4 i made da comment.. dats the first time i heard of stock.. i see the NBA be making up their own categories of stats
tatum really carried so hard he had 1 assist but shots that came after his passes were 6%
somewhere ESPN is ignoring this game and talking about trade packages for the warriors
We going back to back anyway
😳
Lmao see you guys at the finals in 6
You and thinking basketball are the best basketball creators
Nope we didn't, the finals preview is tonight
Cavs vs thunder😉
Naw

@@FrowningFaceWithOpenMouth true, but I see no reason to believe that the Cavs are fraudulent or won't perform in the playoffs. Maybe they won't perform, maybe they'll dominate, but we don't know yet.

Let’s hope it’s a good one!

@@HoopVenue My bad lol, I'm also a basketball sicko or try to be one like you.
If the thunder not down by at least 25 at halftime you can book it
Thunder being down 10 = every other team being up 20 lol
Can you make a Cade Cunningham video please🙏
As a Celtics fan, it’s gonna be CLE vs OKC
As a cavs fan if celtics are 100% they are impossible to beat i dont see teams even getting 2 games. I honestly think yall can match up perfectly vs the 2017 warriors
the cavs look great. i think bos vs cle is gonna go at least 6. as a celtics fan, i can't confidently say who would take that series.
Please Basketball Gods give us Okc vs Celtics in the finals.
My beautiful goat shai❤
3:38 how is this a foul
Damn, making play for attacking the rim protector to get them in foul trouble isn’t a thing anymore?
Probably not, Cleveland will beat boston this year
Uuuuhhh it's very much possible, they definitely match up pretty good against each other. It's gone come down to who remains healthy in the postseason. Who you got coming out the West?
okc vs knicks finals, thunder in 5
Feels like Boston sold more than OKC won, ngl
Sorry but the cavs are facing OKC in the finals
Well that's very much possible, especially the way both teams been playing, however it's not guaranteed. Them facing each other tonight is tho.
✌🏾
TATUM AGAIN LAST NIGHT 1-9 FROM 3 LMAO
Damn gng he the only one he actually did sum nobody was able to make a shot it was good defense but still my guys missed easy ones too. I hope to see yall in the finals tho respectfully

Thunder are good but never compared to the MAvs
Shai had 5 stocks? wtf is that?
blocks + steals
Thou THUNDER won the game, they still can't beat BOSTON in a 7 game series especially in the FINALS.
Defense wins championships
Actually guys the Finals Preview will be Mav vs Celtics Mavs Sweep
CAVS ARE THE BEST TEAM THIS YEAR PERIOD
Cap
Yup possibly & Boston would win 4-1 🥱 fluke ass okc win
