Levo, good to talk to you.

They're plenty scared.

I think that they were a little bit apprehensive going into this series because,

of the regular season performance against the Spurs.

And that Victor Wibinyama is just a different kind of guy.

Very difficult to play against and got the Thunder out of their offensive rhythm a lot.

But in the last three games, the team that's had the motivation to really bounce back has won.

I think the Thunder are battling two significant injuries to Jalen Williams and A.J.

Mitchell, which may be ultimately too much for them to overcome because they're their next two primary creators.

and scores after SGA, and they're both plus defenders too.

So the Thunder are going to have to rely on SGA to bounce back.

They're going to have to rely on the home crowd.

They're going to have to rely on the experience, and those will be the things that carry them through if they win.

Yeah, I think that they will win.

I wouldn't be surprised if the Spurs won.

I mean, I do think that they're going to kind of have to rely on those things that, like home court, because the Spurs have started to come up with a really good defense for SGA.

They're putting Stephan Castle on him and then shading with Wimby.

And the Thunder just don't have enough guys out there.

You know, I mean, they shot...

22 or something like that in game six but those shots have been falling at home if you just look at alex caruso's numbers at home compared to what he's done on the road they've been a lot different uh from time to time that moon ball that lou dort throws up there goes in at home more often than it does on the road and he was one for seven last night so um yeah i i think the thunder can get it done they've been really good off of the loss in the postseason so i i think that that's a it's as good of a situation as they can have right now with what their injuries are
