Thunder Big 3 Take Game 4, Quiet Ant Night & John Haliburton Is Free!

They weren't exactly needed when you get your top three balling the way they did. And so that was the huge difference. Jalen Williams just came out. Yeah, the secondary action and the open three-point shots, he was coming to play.

Yeah, they were totally even keeled, Chet Holmgren and Jalen Williams. Yes, I mean, they've had a little playoff runs, but they haven't had this much playoff success. So you think at some point maybe, you know, will they start to win? Will the lights be too bright as you brought up there, Skeets? But no.

Yeah, I thought Cason Wallace was important in this game. When there's two broken plays and it's just a scenario where Cason Wallace gets the ball, I mean, he has to be the break in Cason of emergency. He has to be, and he did. That's what exactly he was multiple times and offensive boards. He was just that perfect throw that guy out there. He can be the fifth guy on a championship team.

He just was that exactly in this case. Well, on the other side, yeah, we can go through all the things. I thought Chris Finch putting Dante DiVincenzo on Shea in that first half was a mistake. Shea loves that matchup, and he went away from it in the second half, and it was just Nikhil Alexander-Walker, who was the best defender on Shea, even though there's not really an answer for Shea.

Yeah, everybody complaining. But listen, Nikhil Alexander-Walker does his game of his career in the postseason. That was awesome to be able to do that. He was really good. I thought DiVincenzo was, even though he hit those threes, He was sloppy. And so they're looking for another point guard.

That's what this Minnesota Timberwolves will be looking at in a couple months when we're looking at who they are and what they are. They got to the conference finals last year. They need somebody to replace Mike Conley, in all honesty. They needed a ball handler to be able to do something to get into the lane. And Jane McDaniels was chipping in. Kiel Alexander was their backup point guard.

And I guess that's what the Rob Dillingham trade-up for him in the draft to get him was for. It was. That was what they were hoping.
