The Inside guys react to OKC’s Game 1 win over Mavs ⚡️ | NBA on TNT 

😂😂😂😂😂

True😂😂

Inside the NBA is way better than first take or ESPN post game. People truly disagree and doesn't seem like a script

@@TheGod2goinside the nba is better than almost every other show because they keep it real no matter who you is

nba is entertainment so they want drama-driven rather than game-centered topics

please. wolves sweep okc.

​@@kreizeeboi💯 AGREED !!! OKC has been facing 👎

More like minnesota and free throws are just rlly good teams

​@@kreizeeboiwolves are not gonna win the Nuggets series,this Nuggets are letting them get cocky,the Lakers in 1984 got cocky like Minnesota and got beat because Bird called out his teammates,he called them sissies,So in game 3 they came out and played extremely aggressive and the Lakers folded like a chair and u watch the same thing will happen to the Timberwolves

@@dalegriffin6768if wolves don’t let up series is over tho

Mavs and Denver still have a chance

​@Time4SumAksion021 I mean they're still young comparing to clips, phoenix, lakers and gsw though. If you speaking celtics, denver, mavs, they in their prime.

Awooooooo vs Woof Woof in the WCF

Cavs Mavs pacers are young too

I’ve been waiting to watch this league you speak of. This is like watching college basketball.

They playing Gene Hackman ball baby! Everybody touches the ball before we shoot! Most should get the reference :D

Barring injury, Minnesota gonna give OKC the work. I think maybe Boston could give them a run for their money.

​@@flash012234what? boston has no chance

Ur funny ky and luka had 39 combined but edwards gonna do something dort is a beast u will see

Mavs will win 4-1

Okc gonna get smoked😂😂😂

Celtics and wolves do to. Glad to see it's proving it's worth this postseason

Smh they got all the foul calls lol

@@elislifestyle4605 Mavs had 28 FTs, Thunder had 25. TRY AGAIN LOL

So I guess okc doesn't have a superstar? What?

Dude sga is superstars, he’s mvp candidate. Chet is 2 level away from there. I just surprised to see how young boys really let their ego and fill the role. Thats what happens when suns or clippers in cancun. They have too much former superstars who only play when they got the ball. Okc surprisingly knows how to talk to their core.

He said that because three teams in the West finished with an identical W/L record. And one of those is the defending champs, which is getting stomped on by the Timberwolves 2-0. You may as well put OKC at #3 and it wouldn't matter OKC is a strong team. They just keep getting better and better.

@@thirtyacres7504mvp sga

He said that because he follows the big names.

There is no maybe he don't watch basketball like that and especially the thunder. If the main media don't cover the okc or give them respect what makes you think he actually watches okc games. Like thunder up

​@thirtyacres7504 Record wasn't identical, maybe 'near' identical. That's why OKC was #1, they finished with the best record. S Sharpe can barely report about football, much less know anything about basketball.

It's the clippers. What do you expect. They have to move city and change name to lift the curse. Maybe Ballmer home back to Seattle as the New Sonics

But they got Paul George! ahem

Leonard was like I don't want to play with this young dude get an older star. Would have been nice to see though

Honestly I think it worked out in the best way for him. Clippers probably weren't gonna utilize him to his full potential. But that Clippers squad was nice and was one major piece away from being a top contender imo. They were how the Knicks are now (without a Jalen Brunson). Scrappy with hard-nose defense and variety type of role players.

Why does this sound like Charles wrote it 😂

Well, the warriors built themselves too. At the time Steph wasn't considered a star player, he grew into that with the rest of the team

The previous generation of players kept team hopping. I think the new kids prefer not to, which is great for this league's future. Your team is part of your brand. We know Barca for Messi and Madrid for Ronaldo. The future is bright for the NBA

​@@Levi-lr4vithe new kids haven't had the opportunity to hop yet. Yall act like these kids are 22, no one was hopping teams that young. Let's see when the current contracts expire. Will they be satisfied being like Dame if they don't win a chip or will they leave

@@launian5084right. KD chose to join after he got beat by that very same warriors team. Before and after he left, they won a ring.

@@launian5084 their not, they grew their championshiop with kd most, cavs 2016 has the real stars maintaining on team and spurs and detroit

Why you being sassy men don't have estrogen ​@@Dixonmcdixon

You are calling teams playing in the post season garbage, I don't think their fans will agree with you, am referring to the reply

I 100% agree those teams used to not be good at all they had never had good records until now

Why?

Nah man San Antonio are 2 good picks away from the playoffs or one good trade

​@@kahlebhowarth-jennings9688get rid of some of them players

​@@kahlebhowarth-jennings9688San Antonio has a bad bench and the starters surrounding Wemby are below average. Despite Wemby being one of the best defenders in the league San Antonio still had a bottom 10 defensive rating. The Spurs need a lot more than 2 players lol.

Sam Presti is just on a different level than everyone else when it comes to evaluate talent, I also think OKC does the best job when it comes to player development in the entire league.

Saying that already while Kyrie is still only down 0-1 is Kyriediculous

You haven't heard about NBC possible taking over NBA games?

Probably not necessary

No commentary is necessary ​@@Slayer-33

The average age of the final eight teams, (the first number is average age by usage followed by average age of the roster): OKC. 23.4/25.6 Pacers. 25.4/26.1 Knicks. 26.4/27.2 Mavs. 26.5/26.3 Wolves. 27.0/26.0 Nuggets. 27.4/26.3 Cavs. 27.4/26.4 Celtics. 28.4/26.2

Bruh what? The current best players in their primes like jokic and giannis are big men, but the future is mostly guards. Luka, SGA, Ant. Wemby is prob the only big man for the fiture

​@@IcePhoen1x694add Holmgren and Sengun

@@IcePhoen1x694 no he isn't lol I'm a casual nba fan and I know better than that...

@@IcePhoen1x694 You misunderstood. Having just one big guy on the floor is still small ball. Most teams play alot without even a center on the court. OKC and Wolves proving thats not true basketball. Bulls were considered small ball yet they had proper big center in Longley, they had Rodman and Pippen and by todays standards thats not small ball. Also defense seems to be making a return. I was never on Jokic hype train because he doesnt have opposition. Its easy to dominate when you have Hachimura and Lebron guarding you. Look what happened when he encountered proper big men defense in Wolves... Thats how basketball used to look. Only PG and SG were small players, the rest were tall and strong.

@@mrfatuchi….Great points, I would like to add that Jokic still got 25 even with Robere playing him strong and Wolves needed help from the bench to win both games. I still agree with everything you said though, just wanted to add to your points. Connelly built the Nuggets and he has built the wolves using same blueprint.

It Was Written like Nas said

lol it’s game 1 and this is the way yall are reacting?

Shut up

​@@sethhoward9300 I agree, but it doesn't look good for the mavs. I'm an okc fan, I need to see game 3 before I dismiss dallas.

@@foxmoontp lol did yall forget when the clippers blew them out?

So if they actually wake up and then beat OKC, what would be the reason for OKC's loss especially since Dallas is also without a key player, "lack of experience"?

@@ZaggaZye If the Mavericks beat the Thunder it will be because they pulled together and played lights out against a very young, talented, hungry and fully fit (no key players missing) basketball team.

@@VinayakPande53 Im holding you to your words as this is my view as well. Based on your answer, I know you sensed why I asked.

@@ZaggaZye Hold the Mavs to it. But from what I can tell, both Luka and Kyrie are available. It's not like they have a player at Kawhi's level who has fitness issues or is unavailable.

💯💯💯

Just need threes to drop and less turnovers. This was a game going into the fourth and shouldn't have even been that close with all the turnovers on the road.

As a mavs fan...I think minn look terrifying rn even more than okc

He of Lil faith

That's good some fans are tired of the old players n their super teams n failed teams in general

​@@SilentMovements305that's a whole fact

🥱💤 dude isn't even here and you are mentioning him. Bruh move on, let's focus on Ant, Shai, Brunson. How is dudes meat on your mind right now?

@HughJorgan09 it was Mr. Shannon Sharpe more like Mr. Shannon Dull lol 😂

Technically, they are tied with some win/l record as Denver. They slid into #1. And Minnesota is only behind one game. One win less than the two teams. Technically they're #1 in the West, but not by anything worth noting. Are they a strong team? Yes.

Shannon Sharpe

Ex nba player trying to be a nba expert smdh

and the Clips became soft in the last 2 games they made look the Mavs like world beaters this Mavs team is overrated they will lose in 6.

exactly. Kidd always loses the 1st game then adjusts

Luka already doesn't have much lift. He's not athletic and we all know that, but he needs to get healthy again. It's definitely bothering his mobility.

MAVS should have not played him...they could left him resting and not even travelling ot OKC... Now they risk everything... If he cant play is normal game he will keep shooting 3s.. and his COACH is dumb to allowing him to take 7 bricks the last 5 games.

😂😂😂

yes he was 6/19 SGA 8/ 19 was not that better hahahah

"first time"? What? KD? Russ? PG?

LOL... only team that can legitimately say that is Charlotte and Washington. When you've had just in the past decade - KD, Westbrook, Harden, PG, Chris Paul (and that's not even adding other excellent role players - Adams, Ibaka)

@@PurpleMonkeyDishwasher88 i agree with your take, but not chris paul 😂 Thunder Chris paul wasnt no bus driver for us

Except some of these teams are gonna lose young guys when they don't win once they contract runs out.

Pff….

Calm down, they haven't played the Wolves yet. MN gonna expose those frauds.

i thought the nuggets changed the guard? now we're changing again? how many straight conference finals the Celtics been to?

Nuggets play team ball too, and did last year, you just falling into recent biases

@@jalonrhodes8219 Dallas as well, the only team that failed at this was the Clippers and thus lost. Kyrie is one of those players people overlook due to the media narrative but even when you watch the Cleveland Championship Documentary you hear Lebron himself actually lift Kyrie high in the heavens for winning that series for Cleveland. Actually heading into the playoffs no team matched what Dallas was doing but no talk of this and this is all because "ye are all sheep" and the "media is the shepherd". Now all of a Sudden its OKC vs Wolves, overlooking what Denver has done and can still do and that Kyrie and Luka can just go off and that's it.

@@ZaggaZye the switch up these days is at an all time high . Idk people have something about declaring something is over before it actually is 🤷🏾‍♂️

I haven’t seen that! And Luka has been really off in these playoffs! So bad shooting nights! Kyrie doesn’t take enough shots. Their big are their strength right now.

Agreed. They have Lively, PJ Washington, and Gafford. Gafford had 5 blocks. I think he's doing it. The rest need to have some grit and play harder. Minnesota figured it out to stop Jokic. Mavs will need to do the same with Chet. Problem with Chet, he isn't going to score 30 easily, but he'll give you 20 and kick out the ball 5 to 10 times to the perimeter. This opens up the court for Jaylen Williams and others to shoot 3s wide open.

Also that free throw call for OKC in the 1st half was crazy...wolves playing physical it ok...Dallas defends physically...gets called on a slight touch...

They've had the #1 defense in the league since the all-star break. Tell me you haven't been paying attention without telling me you haven't been paying attention.

You haven’t watched the game, have you?

They would have to trade Luka if they want defense.

They are who they are. If Doncic and Irving only score 39 points combined (like tonight) they will lose 95% of the time

They made trades. They picked up PJ Washington and Gafford. Gafford had 11 rebounds and 5 blocks in this game.

Wolves looking at these two like easy food

He was, but scored just 20 points. Luka shot around 30% and scored only 19 points. They will not win like this.
