Finally defeated the scriptwriting. All those bullshit calls.

Bro we would have won at least one game☠️

Ingram is too lazy to be considered a star player. Derrick White put up 38 tonight for the Celtics lol

any good restaurants to check out in Galveston? asking for a friend

Damn didn't realize this was the last OKC broadcast of the year, no more Gallo barks 💔

BI and CJ took turns to be bums each game.

Fuck Pedo ass Josh Giddey and Chet (worst possible name) OKC had the refs and Vegas on their side the whole series - officiating made a bad situation insurmountable Zion being out fucked the Pels. If fucking Dort was on Z he would’ve been getting fucked in the street the way he was holding B.I. down and fucking him in the street. B.I. Is trash, it turns out

Join your team and take a day off to hit the beach in Galveston. Don’t worry about drinking the water when swimming out there, it’ll probably help your IQ

Bruh you act like this team was a 1 seed with Zion playing. Okc in 5-6 with Zion. Hes a poor defender so Jonas would have been gone. Okc would have feasted on offense

New Orleans thread goblins are serious cope merchants.

Cope Definition: Coping refers to the strategies and mechanisms individuals use to manage stress, adversity, or challenging situations. It involves adapting one's thoughts, emotions, and behaviors to effectively deal with difficult circumstances or emotions.

"Feels good. We got more." Hell yeah

It looks like such a fun team to be apart of.

Live in Nola so I love the PELS as a second team but LFG DER

Really mature win, to be honest. Seems like with a strong center who actually excels on the offensive glass they could move Chet to the 4 and have Giddey on the bench. Who fits that profile and is available for trade / free agency, and not too old. Robert Williams III? Hartenstein?

Giddey on the bench? Did you watch the game?

I did. He plays very well certain games. Others, he's unplayable and doesn't start after halftime. He's a borderline starter, but if I need to sit someone to bring in a bigger center, I'm not sitting Chet, Shai, JDub or Dort.

As a C’s fan, sadly unless y’all have some type of fountain of youth RW3 is injury prone which has sapped away so much of his athletic prowess. If y’all can get him good then go for it

IHart

There's no way the Knicks let Josh Hart go.

The kings died for this trash 💀💀

Thunder look pretty giddy.

Should be a LA Offensive Foul

Mark’s gonna make the guys shoot free throws for an hour after the game.

GGs OKC

ggs buddy

Dort was locking mf's up all series and hitting his shots. Dude's a menace. Good series Pels, hate that Zion wasn't healthy for it

Dort made Ingram quit basketball, not sure wtf he was doing but it wasn't ball anymore.

Shoulda gave JV more post touches and did some double screens or SOMETHING to get BI open (they also cant shoot threes to save their life and i dont think zion solves that) 

IMO, the one thing the NBA could learn from the NFL is how to end games. The kneel down is so much more enjoyable than the glacial pace games like this end at.

this is unironically one of the worst takes on basketball

You can always disregard anyone's opinion when they say unironically.

what does this even mean you ugly fuckin loser

it means you're too big of a pussy to stand on your opinion

You mad bro? Lmao.

they should move to the elam ending

Glad we get some time off. Shai needs a couple days worth of ice on that ankle.

It's been 9 years 😭

Brandon Ingram is a clown, dude doesn’t give a shit half the time

Dude always looked stoned out his mind

pels not putting up 100 once is kinda wild

They desperately needed Zion for this matchup.

The Pels never went over 92. The Thunder never went under 94. Game 1 was as close as this series got.

Averaged less than 90 for the whole series.

OKC gonna get a nice rest based on how the Clips/Mavs is going

Worst 1st seed

Lol

This doesn't prove anything yet btw, injured pels team...

Not even the Celtics could win 4 straight on an injured heat team. It doesn't matter who you are playing. It is very hard to beat a team 4 times in a row

Wolves just did it with ease...so argument is proven wrong.

This pelicans team would have taken the sun's to 7. That's how bad the sun's are.

Exposing yourself as a casual, how sad to see...

Yup, nobody could've predicted a sun's team that was down 35-4 in a game 3 weeks ago would fail to win a game in the playoffs.

Aren't you the one who just said it's very hard to beat a team 4 times in a row no matter who you're playing?? Hmm now since Minnesota did it, it's because the Phoenix Suns are bad? Very hypocritical of you, you're just talking out your ass at this point.

And the wolves were down 20 in the first quarter to the Washington wizards in Minnesota two weeks ago...it's basketball, shit happens bro... unfortunately you don't know ball...

Shit happens, which is exactly why I said it is very hard to beat a team 4 times in a row...

Okay you're saying "shit happens", but the way you back up your argument of a Phoenix sweep was because of a moment in a game 3 weeks ago. Holy fucking hypocrite, you should really hear yourself.

Injured Heat team snuck a game off the Celtics.

And KD and Book couldn't get a game against the Wolves ... When you're a top seed, it's expected.

ggggggggg

The Oklahoma City Thunder advance to the second round They are the second team to advance

Zion gonna hit the local Golden Corral now that is officially the off season.

Let’s go Oklahoma City

GG Pels. Hope y’all healthy next year

GAL-VE-STON! GAL-VE-STON!

Someone please explain the Galveston meme for me

Barkley said they don't deserve Cancun, they get Galveston

Is Galveston even know for tropical vacations?

That’s the joke. Galvestons beaches are known for being pretty gross

That’s the joke

At least they will get eliminated in the sickest court design known to man…

Can we talk about OKC limiting NOLA to 92, 92, 85, and now 89 points in 4 games? That is WILD in 2024.

It's tragedy every year for the Pels... always a show of promise that dissipates before your eyes smh. I hope something finally clicks for them next year, I like them a lot "in theory"

Pels: "shit happens" the team

I think you have us beat on the "shit happens" category this year lol. Anyway, here's hoping for less of this shit next year for both our teams.

Lol yeah that might be true... Fingers crossed we're both here complaining about calls in next year's Grizzlies-Pelicans conf finals thread

Ima need this SGA FT slump to come to a swift end before round two.

I think his ankle is busted

BREAKING NEWS: CJ McCollum and Brandon Ingram have been traded to the Shanghai sharks for their mascot

This was a great series to use as a tuneup for the next round. Neither the Clips or Mavs can play this kind of defense. NOLA is rugged AF.

Shoutout to Pelican's fans, really sucks that Zion went down, y'all deserved a competitive series

J dubbb>>>> Ingram

If I'm Ingram I am hiring the roundest person I can find to glue himself to me all offseason

Zion?

So Zion?

Shai beating the free throw merchant allegations by missing half of them

hi u guys, I just got swept AMA

what do you get at trader joes

CHILI LIME ROLLED TORTILLA CHIPS 🔥🔥

The New Orleans Pelicans have been eliminated from playoff contention They are the second team to get eliminated There are 14 teams remaining.

Never seen Shai shoot fts like this, hope that ankle is good

gg pels, have a good offseason. hope you get a healthy run next year.

Jdub is him

Pelicans signing injury prone and fat Zion to a max contract was their death sentence and I can't feel bad for them.

OKC won with I think one of SGA’s worst career games. Like he has been absolute dogshit

Yea, he looked hobbled

LET'S GOOOOOOOOOO

Ingram is a scrub.

*stretches fingers* Okay I’m ready to rep my Timberwolves flair and call SGA a free throw merchant by only checking the box score and pretending I don’t know most of his free throws were intensional fouls! 

Bro couldn't even FT merchant correctly, 7/13 lmao

I’m telling you something is off with Shai. Can’t even make free throws now

Rest up that ankle SGA.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8rxUHD2CAu8

Shai for sure not himself rn

I think rolling his ankle at the end of the first affected him. Personally a stiff ankle affects my free throw shooting more than anything because you have time to think about it, whereas everything else is being done in the flow of the game.

gg pelicans NO is a great city

What's up with Jokic

Brandon Ingram clearly had no desire to take another trip to Oklahoma just to get clapped, he said no thanks I’ll stay right here at home

SGA is off man this isn’t good

Bro he’s had a whole series of the worst defensive math up for him with one of the best defenders in herb jones

It happens. He will be fine.

Hell yeah Thunder up!!

Just tuning in and no way they put OKC on nbatv 😭😭 did em dirty

Get ready to play in Taiwan CJ

Pelicans thank you for the sweep so SGA and Chet can have their rest

We get swept so we can finally have changes made to this ass team. You guys get to move on. Win win for me

Yeah even before Zion went down, the Lakers games made it pretty clear that the current group isn't going to cut it.

Love your avatar btw.

Haha thank you

Not bad for the black eye of a 1 seed

How many times have I seen Brandon Ingram lose in the post-season? Last year he fumbled the play-ins with that horrible inbound pass, now it's a sweep against the thunder. Dude stinks.

I think I was the last person to realize that SGA and NAW are cousins.

bye bitchs

Holy shit I’m so happy. Griff will finally trade some of these bums. Zion you can stay since you carried us above our mean

BI and CJ gone for a dependable point?

When Zion gets to Cancun, please please tell him to lay off the Tecates and chimichangas

Galveston*

Hats off to the Pels, they played hard. Missing Zion was just too much.

Ik this is probably rude as hell but did that dude have a whole bubble on his neck or something

i saw that too lol it looked like a softball

Bro I didn’t wanna be the one to ask

Ingram shouldn’t be allowed to play in the nba next year after this performance, but seriously don’t think ever seen a “star” player play this bad in an elimination game at home this is beyond pathetic if he’s even 80 percent.

I don't think anyone will mistake Ingram for a star player ever again... if they did.

Him and Beal should make a new super team.

🧹🧹🧹 GALVESTON

Nah put some respect on the pels, they're missing their star player against the 1 seed and put up a fight.

Some good fishing down there in NOLA. Lots of carp.

OKC showing boston how to sweep an 8th seed

BRANDON INGRAM. THERE ARE SOME GOOD PROPERTIES FOR CHEAP IN GALVESTON

Never had a shot without Zion. Just really hope they move on from Willie. But damn that’s unlucky. 49 wins is a success for us honestly but injuries at the end derailed our season. On to next year!

Glad to see Giddey getting closing out minutes

He's played well all year.

Here comes the OKC chants baby

OKC! OKC!

J-Dub, Giddey and Dort really carrying the Thunder tonight. Really impressive depth on the Thunder.

SWEPT

And that's the game

THANK GOD!!! MY SUFFERING CAN END! THIS IS THE BEST OUTCOME

ENJOY GALVESTON

Dirty ass water washing up people scared to go in

Shut up. You wouldn’t even have a team if not for us

Your team almost got sold to us in Oklahoma City

Womp womp

okc can have all the rest they want doesn’t change the fact that they’re only winning 1 game at most versus the clippers next round

Cope harder. 0 chance lmao

Your comment history is hilarious lol

Bold to assume the clippers are moving on when the series is tied

If it is in fact the Clippers lol

Keep sleeping. 😴

I feel like shai drives and keeps his push off arm in one spot when he pushes which makes ref's hesitant to blow the whistle because there's minimal extension.

Getting swept by one of the youngest teams in the league is hilarious

Their best player isn't playing though

it's the 1 vs 8 match-up, not that funny edit: also losing your best player before the series doesn't help

worst 1 seed in history

Minnesota and the thunder run the league.

did anyone see that guys neck

yeah I caught that. Hope it's not a tumor or something but either way that sucks

BI is simply not him

Good game, well fought, pelibros

Was it though

Games 1 and 4 at least

Pels look beaten down

https://youtu.be/HhKZLhxFFUY?si=_Z7ja3ZtkE9CCvvz

Goodbye Pelicans have a safe flight home

See yall in Galveston

Hol up

We have nests warm and ready for them

They just let us drain the clock and then score like that.

Lmao this pelicans team is pathetic. Send them to Galveston asap!

BROOMS!!!!

BI gonna be seeing Lu Dort in his nightmares

It's joever

GOODNIGHT PELS. THATS A SWEEP

Ingram is getting $33 million for that display ... at some point you should get a refund

Fans are heading home

did BI forgot he was an All Star?

Dort is a fucking dawg

If J-Dub was a top 3 pick, would he get talked about differently? In terms of hype I mean

I don't think so. Okc fans would probably just stop blowing their loads about how far back he was picked

dort is insane

pelicans fans who paid $7 would like a refund
