00:00 [MUSIC]
00:03 Let's start with the Thunder last night.
00:05 They beat the Mavs 117 to 95,
00:08 game number one in OKC.
00:10 Things got out of hand a little bit in the second half, Joe.
00:13 It really was a little bit of everyone for OKC.
00:17 Sure, SGA had his 29,
00:19 but there was threes being splashed all over the place on TNT.
00:23 His pace, air ball, Holmgren catches, Holmgren, kick.
00:28 Hitting the shot clock.
00:30 Yes!
00:32 Wiggins!
00:33 Second chance points for OKC.
00:36 Corner.
00:37 Another!
00:41 Jason Wallace connects!
00:46 Thunder rolling.
00:48 Yeah, the Mavs really let go of the rope, Joe, in that second.
00:53 Really the second quarter is what really hurt them,
00:56 but they let go of the rope early in that fourth quarter,
00:59 and the Thunder just started hitting threes from all over the place.
01:02 Yeah, Holmgren had two, we needed three, SGA eight.
01:05 You know, they all wait.
01:06 Hey, Ayan, you know, just make sure when Dallas is up in game two,
01:10 you're that emotional, OK, with the calls.
01:12 Oh, Holmgren!
01:14 Oh, SGA!
01:16 You're talking the position there, Ayan.
01:18 Getting on the Birdman, huh?
01:20 What are you getting on the Birdman for?
01:22 It's a homer.
01:23 He's a homer.
01:24 He's getting on the-- talk about the call.
01:26 He could tell all Oklahoma City.
01:28 You could tell it.
01:29 He would have did the same thing if Kyrie and Luka were doing it
01:34 on the other end.
01:35 He would have done the same spiel.
01:36 I want to hear it.
01:37 I don't believe it until I hear it.
01:39 I want to hear it.
01:39 How about this, then, Joe?
01:40 You want to hear it?
01:41 Tell the Mavericks to play better, because, God,
01:43 they were awful last night in that game one.
01:46 I heard all about this.
01:47 They have slow starts.
01:48 They got all the-- please.
01:50 They were bad in that game.
01:52 We'll get to Luka in a moment.
01:53 But first, here's J Gilgus on the Thunder.
01:56 Complete team effort in game number one.
01:58 I actually don't even care, Joe, what he has to say.
02:00 I just wanted to see--
02:01 I wanted you to see the threads that my man was rolling
02:05 with here in the postgame.
02:07 Your boy looking fresh.
02:08 Look at this.
02:09 Yeah, it goes hand in hand.
02:12 Love those shirts.
02:13 It makes it easier for us to play for each other
02:15 and with each other, just because we--
02:18 off the court, we know, like, each and every one of--
02:20 He looks-- he does look smooth.
02:21 --our teammates has our back.
02:22 I mean, he cares for our well-being.
02:23 Look at that.
02:24 The mustard leather shirt.
02:25 And then in turn, just when you get out there,
02:27 you're playing for something bigger than just yourself.
02:30 He's too cool.
02:31 He's too calm.
02:33 You ever wear the leather shirts, Joe?
02:35 You ever put any of those on?
02:36 Yeah, you gotta have a couple in the closet, right?
02:38 I need breathable.
02:39 Like, now, the shirt, any heavy shirt, for me,
02:41 I like to breathe--
02:43 I don't mind the heavy jacket with the breathable shirt.
02:46 It's the shirt that needs to breathe a little bit.
02:49 I can't wear that.
02:50 The leather shirt, that's not my style.
02:52 It's nice.
02:53 That was a nice combo.
02:54 Definitely.
02:55 Between the shirt and the tie, that was a nice combo.
02:57 He looked too-- he looked too confident
03:00 and comfortable for me.
03:01 Well, but here's the thing, Joe.
03:03 He feels too good.
03:03 I need him to get it uncomfortable.
03:05 You said that yesterday about him.
03:08 And sure enough, he played to that level.
03:11 Yes, he did.
03:12 And they beat Dallas's ass.
03:13 So why would he give up and not feel that way
03:17 after that game number one?
03:18 Well, I thought-- and to your point, right,
03:20 I actually thought the fact that Dallas has a better backcourt
03:24 with Luka and Kyrie, better and more consistent,
03:28 at least I thought, than New Orleans and McCollum
03:31 in that series, that at least both of those guys
03:34 would play better.
03:34 But when Kyrie--
03:35 I'm staring at the screen, and Kyrie
03:38 has two points with four minutes left in the second quarter,
03:41 that's a problem.
03:43 You know, you can't start slow.
03:44 Like, I don't understand.
03:46 It's the same thing what we talked about with Halliburton
03:49 with the Pacers.
03:50 The best players need to touch the rock in these series.
03:54 If you want to win the West, you've
03:56 got to have Luka and Kyrie--
03:58 if there's 50 shots in the first half,
04:00 they've got to take 40 of them.
04:03 (upbeat music)
