13:30Лу-Дорф.
13:31Лу-Дорф, абсолютно loaded
13:34with good defenders. There is Дорф, but on the
13:36offensive end, right on the baseline.
13:38The Thunder shooting it well
13:40here from the jump on the road.
13:42I can hear people saying, don't forget about
13:44Kaysen Wallace, and you're right, don't forget about
13:46the NBA Steel's leader in
13:48Kaysen Wallace.
13:50Martin's been really looking for his shot
13:52on the offensive end. Missed it again.
13:54Wallace looking for a trailer.
13:56Shea gives it up.
13:57Hartstein rumbling. Dishes down
14:00low. The pass on
14:02time, and Holmgren knew exactly what
14:04to do for the punch.
14:05Well, the ball can always travel faster than
14:08the defense, but when you're moving it this
14:09fast, you're going to get all the way in that deep
14:11paint. Take a look at this, folks. That's one good
14:13pass, and once again, another
14:15one. And if that's not enough, we've got a third one
14:17for you. Check those to basketball.
14:19Keys to the game, Michael.
14:20How about Kraft to paint the Thunder already with eight points
14:23in that painting area? How about that
14:25big number of 49
14:27a couple of nights ago, up 58
14:29against the Nuggets? Get back on defense.
14:31We know the Mavericks like to get out and transition
14:32their third best and score those points.
14:34How about this one here, partner? You saw that in overtime
14:36with the bench, how well they did with those 49
14:39points a couple of nights ago. I'm going to go with it again
14:41tonight. Bench points for the Thunder
14:42have been solid all. See, they're eight in the
14:44association in that area as well.
14:47Now, once again, SGA, who's been on
14:49a minutes restriction, out
14:51of his ordinary rotation, and a
14:53sink here just four minutes and three
14:54seconds into the game.
14:58Well, Mark Dagnall said, even with
15:00all the guys that have been out over the last couple
15:02of weeks, they've had to
15:04sort of deviate off of the normal
15:06allocation of what they normally do, but the
15:08guys have been stepping up in so many different
15:10ways. Yeah, they stepped up in a big way because
15:12Isaiah Hardenstein and SGA did
15:14not play in that overtime.
15:17I'll tell you, the bench
15:18guys was just terrific.
15:21Not only in the
15:22four quarters, but the overtime.
15:26Wiggins trying to float up there to Hartenstein.
15:28He got caught underneath the rim.
15:31As Dwight Powell has entered
15:32for the first time. Middleton, and he
15:34showed you a little bit of speed there, put it on the deck
15:36as Chris Middleton came over
15:38from the Washington Wizards.
15:40Hasn't played a whole lot here over the last couple
15:42of the early years.
15:44Battled so many injuries with those
15:46knees.
15:47Holmgren off the deck, pulls up.
15:50Missed it.
15:52Christie, who's been quiet.
15:54So quiet that he's yet to take a shot.
15:58Middleton.
16:00That's a spot that he loves.
16:01He's been shooting that mid-range jumper his entire
16:03career. You're right, partner. He's made a living
16:05with that mid-range shot.
16:08How about this guy here making a living
16:10with the three, and Lou Dort.
16:11Lou Dort always makes timely threes.
16:15Mr. Dort does.
16:17Certainly not afraid to shoot
16:19from deep. There is Clay Thompson
16:21not afraid to shoot either from downtown.
16:24Dallas misses from deep
16:25as Wiggins
16:27trying to decide what to do.
16:29There's a cut. Wall is given right back.
16:32Hartenstein got stripped on the back side.
16:34Out of bounds. The Thunder almost
16:36cooked up a pretty one.
16:37Nice little give and go.
16:40Hartenstein's newly the guy who
16:41does a lot give and go.
16:42But take a look at this, man.
16:43He got hacked over here on the arm.
16:45Jeez.
16:47No call on the play, but
16:50someone will get the possession.
16:52See if we can make something happen with it.
16:54They'll do just that further.
16:56So instead of getting the whistle
16:57and getting to the free throw line,
16:58and it's Wiggins on the flare-out.
17:00I think he'll take that.
17:01You can take the three.
17:03Oh, yeah.
17:06Bristie contestant.
17:08That is an intrepid drive down the lane.
17:11That's with his left hand, too.
17:13Went right at Hartenstein and Holmgren.
17:15Wallace.
17:16He'll try it.
17:17Hartenstein's getting tugged on by Williams,
17:19and this time he will get fouled.
17:26This guy here, he's a workhorse.
17:27Take a look at him, folks.
17:28He's running, rim running.
17:29We call that a lot of times in transition.
17:32But he does a good job of that
17:33on a set piece and tight space
17:36using that big body.
17:38We call him I-Heart.
17:40Sometimes.
17:44Keep the Thunder traditions alive
17:46and start the next chapter
17:47by activating your 2026-27 season ticket membership today.
17:52Log in to your Thunder online account manager
17:54at okcthunder.com slash activate.
17:58You know, it's really important
17:59for a lot of teams like the Thunder
18:01and students who have had terrific seasons
18:04and back-to-back years.
18:05You know, you've got to have coaches on the floor.
18:07And the Thunder have coaches on the floor.
18:09I'm going to throw Isaiah Hartenstein
18:11in that conversation.
18:12Isaiah Joe.
18:14And, of course, SGA.
18:16Oh, look at this, man.
18:18That's a...
18:20Middleton lost the basketball.
18:22Fortunate to get that back.
18:24I think a lot of times that's understated
18:27for teams that have those type of players.
18:30Here's the NBA Steel Gooter
18:32just dislodging that basketball.
18:35That's one thing that he mentions
18:37when he is defending,
18:39Casey Wallace, that is.
18:41He knows that he can be aggressive
18:43because he's got Holmgren and Hartenstein
18:45behind him on the defensive line.
18:47Yeah, absolutely.
18:48That's going to be an offensive foul
18:49on Klay Thompson.
18:50I always joke about that partner
18:52at the big brother.
18:53It's nice to have a big brother at the rim.
18:56You know, well, yeah, well, he can...
18:58He can hammer it on that one.
19:00Easy call for the officials.
19:01But you can gamble a little bit more
19:03on the perimeter
19:05when you got a shot blocker like Chet.
19:07Let me tell you something, man.
19:08That's an advantage.
19:09That's a privilege
19:10having a player on the floor like that.
19:13I'll tell you, it's a privilege
19:14to see him get those 21 rebounds
19:16against Denver.
19:17Holmgren just leveled Powell
19:19and then sidesteps his way
19:21for the pretty finish.
19:23Man, you know what I'm going to say.
19:25That was nasty.
19:26Talking about a guy 7'1", folks.
19:30Moving like that with the basketball.
19:32Almost like, with respect,
19:34almost like a ballet move here.
19:36Take a look at this, folks.
19:38A little freeze there.
19:41Man down.
19:43That cannot be a good feeling.
19:45And he still has to get to the rim
19:47around two defenders on that play.
19:49Take a look at that.
19:52Tyson on the turnaround
19:54as a mid-range shot.
19:56But that's one thing
19:57that Mark Dagnall actually mentioned
19:59is being something that
20:00Chet Holmgren has really improved.
20:02Because it's going to be a foul again on Powell.
20:05His handle being tighter,
20:06his ability to make a play,
20:08no hesitation on the offensive end.
20:10Something that he's really improved
20:12that might not stand out
20:15as much as some of the other things.
20:18But one of the reasons why
20:19Chet Holmgren has improved
20:21on the offensive end.
20:22He does a lot of things really well.
20:26Got down low again.
20:28Trying to find Wiggins.
20:30Almost turned it over.
20:31This time to take the mid-range shot
20:32and score the mid-range shot.
20:34He's just showing you his gifts right now.
20:39He's going to take the mid-range shot.
20:39We've got a technical foul.
20:44And I think it's going to go against Powell.
20:49And it's a rush stretch for Dwight Powell.
20:53He got unglued on the defensive end.
20:56And Chet made him look bad.
20:59And he got the ball for another
21:01offensive foul just on that last possession.
21:03I think that was why he kept chirping
21:06at the officials and got hit with the citation.
21:10And I like how sometimes officials
21:12will allow you to talk back
21:14like my dad never let me do.
21:17You know, anytime I talk back to my dad,
21:19I would wake up a couple of minutes later
21:20and go, Pops, I thought I was talking to you.
21:23Yeah, you can figure out what happened.
21:25That was a one-way conversation.
21:30But the officials let you blow off a little steam.
21:34When they say, all right, stop.
21:35That's exactly what they mean.
21:36They want you to stop.
21:38Tough pass inside.
21:40As Holgerin could handle it.
21:42Nimhard sprinting.
21:44Christie.
21:45Good close out of him.
21:46Now let me get that free look.
21:50It is Dallas.
21:51We'll have to run a little offense here.
21:54Nimhard, he looks an awful lot like his older brother.
21:58Andrew Nimhard for the Indiana Pacers.
22:01Two seconds.
22:02Someone's going to have to shoot.
22:03That's a tough one.
22:04Fading away on the baseline.
22:06And the rebound to Joe.
22:07That's good defense by Wiggins.
22:09It's just Umano, Umano on that play.
22:13Good lines up another tour.
22:16A.J. Johnson, the rebound for the Mavericks.
22:21That's a case of loss.
22:23Getting up on him.
22:24No problem switching.
22:27And Thompson threw it right into the arms of Wiggins,
22:29who read that play nicely.
22:30Wiggins on the push, on the drive.
22:33No.
22:34Holgerin.
22:35Shut off.
22:36Twirls around.
22:37And a nice finish yet again.
22:40As he just lulled the defender.
22:41She stayed asleep.

27:49throwing yeah and laid the ball up and
27:51you never really get that straight
27:53line drive like that from baseline to
27:55baseline like AC did and then finish
27:57with the left hand on the right side
27:59that's with the left hand on the
28:00right side for Wiggins tough shot of
28:03a fadeaway is gonna get the wrong for
28:06seconds left in hard passes tops in the
28:10deep and drew iron when it counted had
28:14it gone
28:42Продолжение следует...
28:45And that's one of the reasons why the Thunder have an 11-point lead after one.
28:49Well, he did a good job of rebounding the basketball and just dictating the pace of the game after the
28:55first couple of minutes.
28:57And that created a nice little flow there.
29:00The Thunder reserves are in.
29:04McCain, first action.
29:07And first action for Kenrich-Williams.
29:09Trying to make his move. Little ball fake. Had to...
29:12Slight height advantage there over Middleton.
29:14Here we go. Let's go back.
29:19Dallas in a major funk.
29:22Thompson off the screen.
29:24Misses from three.
29:25He goes out by Caruso just to get to him.
29:28He's such a quick shooter.
29:30Clay Thompson has always happened his entire year.
29:33A career receiving process.
29:35SGA will knock down a third three for the Thunder tonight.
29:38Don't forget about his three-point shooting, Michael.
29:41Thirty-nine percent on the season.
29:44That is another element of his game that has been such an asset up to this point.
29:51Thompson, heavy pressure and lost it out of bounds.
29:54Good defense. Caruso was all over him.
29:57And Thompson always looking for his shot.
29:59Turns it over. Let's check in with Nick.
30:01Well, guys, that three-point shot for Shea just continues to be a weapon.
30:04It's another way that he can become a three-level player.
30:08Of course, Shea always talks about wanting to have counters and counters to counters.
30:12Over the course of the season, over the course of years, he's seen so many different types of defense.
30:17Sometimes guys are going to try to play him under.
30:20That shot can be critical, not just in this game, but moving forward as we head towards potential postseason berth.
30:26That's got to be difficult as a player, Michael.
30:28Just constantly trying to decipher how teams are defending you and then come up with a way to counter it.
30:35As Caruso on the sidestep and he bounces off of Middleton as he hits the deck.
30:40A lot of contact on that play.
30:42Officials thought it wasn't enough to blow the whistle.
30:47And Topson strokes that one from deep.
30:52And Klay Topson with his first three of the game.
30:55What a tough finish that time by A.C.
31:01And now J. Will will get called for the offensive foul.
31:07She's in defense to offense, folks.
31:10Dallas is trying to go inside.
31:12Block by J. Will.
31:13Transition opportunity and result.
31:16Cause and effect.
31:17And there's the bump and the finish.
31:19Kissed it off the glass.
31:21Now Alex Caruso just plays winning basketball.
31:25There's so much on both ends of the floor.
31:27Middleton just fumbled on the way up.
31:30Gafford back outside.
31:31Williams.
31:34And an offensive rebound.
31:36Sneaking in there was Martin.
31:39He wants to drive on McCain.
31:40Back up top.
31:41Thompson couldn't handle the pass cleanly.
31:43Instead, that one-footed shot.
31:46Look at Caruso diving for it.
31:51And what's the call?
31:54You're going to call a loose ball foul on Caruso.
32:00And you hate to see that when a guy is basically going to get penalized for diving for it.
32:08Oh, he had the ball.
32:09What do you call it?
32:10He dove on the floor, got the basketball.
32:13What are you seeing?
32:15You didn't tell me to calm down, so I'm going to keep going.
32:17Like, what are you seeing on that plate?
32:18All right, folks.
32:19We're going to take a look at it when we get back.
32:22Thunder.
32:23Call on a review.
32:24Brought to you by Pella of Oklahoma.
32:25Fisher window indoor partner of the OKC Thunder.
32:29And Mark Dagnall has now won five consecutive challenges.
32:34As this one didn't take long.
32:35And Alex Caruso, what was deemed a 50-50 ball, got to the ball first.
32:39And you and I were wondering, Michael, what the officials were seeing as Caruso clearly going for that basketball.
32:46Beat Thompson to it, then got possession.
32:49And Caruso, he was stunned coming off the floor.
32:52I always say first one to the floor gets the basketball.
32:55And you do a drill like that all the time in college and high school where the coach rolls the
33:00basketball.
33:01And you've got to get on that ball first because if you don't get on it first, you don't get
33:04the basketball.
33:05And that's why Caruso was able to get that basketball first.
33:09And that call was overturned because he had clearly won that.
33:16As McCain comes off the screen, had to look from three.
33:20He has shot the ball really well.
33:22And a couple of big shots on Friday night.
33:25Middleton used that big body of Gafford.
33:30As Williams showed the speed down the lane and a whistle and free throws coming up.
33:39And that goes on, Jay Will, who picks up number two.
33:46For a Dallas team that has lost 12 out of 14 games, it got real bad there.
33:57With a massive losing streak of 10 games, Michael, they've lost seven in a row at home, which is the
34:04most since 1997.
34:07This is a team that has historically played really well in this building.
34:12And with all the losses that have piled up, they're still very happy because of the season that Cooper Flagg
34:20has had.
34:20Yeah, I mean, they've got a young star to build around.
34:24He has advertised, folks.
34:27They have a terrific rookie season so far.
34:30Over 20 points a game.
34:32First year out of Duke.
34:34What is this barely 19, I believe?
34:37Goodness.
34:38Got a lot of upside.
34:40Sitting right next to Mark Cuban here.
34:42Danrich Williams, a little short on that, teed up three from SGA.
34:50Here early in the second quarter.
34:54Christie.
34:56Good three-point shooter, but that time he was well short.
35:01And Dallas gets back on defense.
35:04But it's done a good job so far, limiting fast-break opportunities.
35:07Jay Will, the ball fake.
35:09Defense is moving.
35:10Caruso fires.
35:11No.
35:12And McCain.
35:14Got beat to the ball there by Christie.
35:18Leonard have a double-digit lead here despite not shooting it well from three.
35:24Corner one from Martin, and it's flat as can be, but it still goes in.
35:28And that's his second three on an absolute line drive.
35:35Jay, too much speed right by Middleton.
35:38That is unfair.
35:39That is not an even matchup.
35:41Yeah, that's a nice little crossover dribble.
35:44And he just laid it up sweetly.
35:49Gafford blocked out of bounds.
35:51Not sure who got a piece of it.
35:53You just have to appreciate sometimes the brilliance of his move.
35:56Little stuttered dribble right there just to freeze the defense.
35:59Got there before the weak side could help out.
36:02He just laid it up on a platter.
36:04That's not a platter, though, is it?
36:06What's a platter?
36:07A platter is when you set it up for your teammate.
36:09You put it on a platter for him like me in service.
36:11Okay, you're going to set it up.
36:12Okay.
36:13So he just kind of did a lollipop.
36:17And that'll be out of bounds.
36:19It went for a little lollipop there with the right hand.
36:21Because that's your saying.
36:22Yeah.
36:23I'm just copying you.
36:23I'm learning you, man.
36:25I've been working with you for 15 years.
36:37He's got some speed to help.
36:39My goodness.
36:41J. Will.
36:42Transition no.
36:48It's the paint.
36:5022 for OKC.
36:51There's another miss.
36:53Offensive rebound.
36:54Short shot no good.
36:55Kick out, Martin, again, unorthodox shot.
36:59That time to flatten it.
37:00It's got him.
37:01Thunder can get the shot that they want.
37:03Missed a couple of threes now.
37:05Once he gets inside.
37:08And there is possibly more points of the paint, but SGA.
37:11No good on the drive.
37:14Dallas back to the way.
37:16And Martin off the pass.
37:18There is that fast break offense that Dallas thrives with.
37:21And maybe, you know, a third best in the NBA.
37:25In fast break points.
37:29McCain passed up to three instead.
37:31The push shot.
37:32And a good one.
37:33He just looks very comfortable, particularly in the mid-range.
37:37Yeah, he's got, you know, mid-range and he's got three broad range.
37:41Well, I tell you, you get a big three to start that third quarter against that fourth quarter
37:45against the Nuggets the other night off that steal by Isaiah Joe.
37:49Martin will call that the play of the game.
37:54That double digits in six out of the nine.
37:57Williams, no good from three.
37:59Now, it's not shooting a much better 30 percent from D.
38:03Jay, going to get fouled.
38:05Middleton can't do anything to slow him down.
38:08If SGA wants to get by Chris Middleton, he can at will.
38:14No time.
38:15Take a look at this.
38:19Chris Middleton grabbed him and pulled him by the shoulder and was upset at the call.
38:24But I think if he saw that replay, clearly that was a foul.
38:29As he basically took him down.
38:31Shea will get two free throws nonetheless.
38:37It's going to be a side out.
38:38Shea was just standing at the free throw line.
38:43I think everybody was gravitating toward the lane.
38:45Except for Fantasy Ransom.
38:48McCain bounces off of Nimhard.
38:50There's the fain away right at the free throw line.
38:53Wow.
38:54He was hanging all over him like a cheap suit.
38:58Except that time, McCain had a nice tie on to finish it off.
39:04Thompson's just shooting it every single time he gets the ball.
39:10He's three for eight.
39:11SGA.
39:11Again!
39:13And SGA with some altitude on that drive.
39:17What a finish at the rim.
39:21You know, he's a reigning MVP.
39:25He's averaging over 32 a game.
39:28And he's a maestro with the basketball.
39:30But every now and then, he just shows you something different, folks.
39:34And how about that?
39:35Just flushing it, forcing the Mavericks to call timeout.
39:40The Jared McCain has threaded the needle between confidence coming in knowing that he can play
39:45and he can make an impact without dominating, without dominating possession.
39:50We're deferring here in Oklahoma City.
39:53Jared McCain with a couple nice buckets.
39:55He had a stretch in the Denver game where he really took over from a playmaking and scoring score.
40:00From a standpoint, Shaguel is Alexander saying that was critical on Friday night.
40:05Mark Dagnall has been gushing about McCain in the way that he, just as a person, has come into this
40:10environment.
40:11Tried to just find his way.
40:12Not trying to press it too much.
40:14Not trying to dominate the possession.
40:16But also not deferring either.
40:18And, guys, what makes this even more impressive, he still doesn't even have all of his clothes from Philadelphia with
40:23him.
40:23He said he's got to go to the laundromat to just continue to have some fresh clothes.
40:27Michael, I don't know if you've ever had it like that in your career.
40:30No, no.
40:30I just keep wearing the same old outfit, Nick.
40:32That's okay.
40:32But that's a trade secret.
40:34Come on, Mike.
40:35Tell him you've got to launch.
40:36You've got to watch him drive.
40:39Man, you only go to the laundromat in minor league baseball.
40:42Let me tell you about those days.
40:43You know about that, don't you?
40:46Wow, what a story, though.
40:47Not like Nick there, just sharing that info with us.
40:50Man, he's really adjusted well here.
40:53Looks like Chet with a little adjustment up there at the rim.
40:56But with that left hand off, a nice pass from Holmgren.
41:01Run it with a 12-point lead.
41:06McCain will now defend Nimhart.
41:10Check it around that screen.
41:12There's Hardenstock.
41:13Good defense, keeping Nimhart out of the lane.
41:15How?
41:16Floater.
41:16Banking in.
41:18Floater.
41:18Ho, ho, ho, ho.
41:23And Powell gets his first points of the game.
41:27But it has been impressive seeing Jared McCain go out there.
41:31And remember, Mike, he hasn't played 82 games yet in his career.
41:35That time he plays distributor and he sets it up for Hardenstein's patent push shot.
41:40Wow, that's a good look there at that time.
41:42Had a nice first step move to the basket to move the defense.
41:47They forgot about Hardenstein, that painted area.
41:49But McCain, he looks like he plays like a veteran, Michael.
41:52But you remember he had his rookie year shortened, battled some injuries,
41:55wasn't getting a ton of play in time with Philly.
41:58And there's that three on the outside by Christie.
42:01He's got his first triple, but I think that's another element of why it's been impressive for McCain,
42:07is because he doesn't have a full 82 games on there.
42:09He's got it yet.
42:10Not a whole lot of practice days.
42:15Nice.
42:16Takeaway by Wallace.
42:17There is McCain.
42:18Off the catch.
42:20Dwells a three.
42:21Ever since Nick started talking about it, man.
42:23He just said, look, you know, I'm going to get Nick Moore to talk about.
42:27He's cooking it right now.
42:29Nice little sister.
42:30I hearted men calling his own number with the three.
42:34Play his tenth game with OKC.
42:37Nimar's going to get fouled.
42:42How about this?
42:43This is what we're talking about.
42:44Preoccupying the defense.
42:46Forces the big man in the middle to come over for the Mavericks,
42:48drops it off the high heart.
42:50And here again, offensive rebound just steps right into it.
42:54He's already, what, one, maybe two feet behind the line there.
42:58And he just shoots so effortlessly.
43:01Try saying that three times in a row.
43:03Man, I've been waiting to say that word, but not on air.
43:06It's good to say it during a break in the action instead of, you know, trying to do it.
43:12Don't ask me to repeat it.
43:14It's a speedy moment.
43:14I'll ask Paris Lawson to repeat it later in the second half.
43:19Man, he just, it just looks like he's just, you know, a nice little smooth, you know, stroke of that
43:25ball.
43:28It's not like he's really rushing his shot either.
43:32Now grabs that rebound for Dallas.
43:35And they've kept a double-digit lead for the majority this first half.
43:39And Hartenstein, trying to ship it up to McCain.
43:43Goes behind his back, nice move, left hand, too strong.
43:49Thunderback defensively.
43:50The lob inside, it got sniffed out by Holgren.
43:53Broke it up initially, but Christie, the exact same spot where he made his first three.
44:03As Wallace, gone all the way to the cup and shipped it back out to the perimeter.
44:11And now McCain stops, pulls up another mid-range shot for Jared McCain, who's up to nine points here in
44:18the first half.
44:19You know, I was talking about his three-point shooting.
44:21You were talking about his mid-range shot, Parker.
44:23I'm going to have to talk to you about that as well.
44:25Oh, he's had a couple of those nice little middies.
44:30Very, very comfortable.
44:32The offense, definitely a little bit different than in Philly, but taking full advantage.
44:38Tough shot inside.
44:40Ball pops out.
44:40This will be Thunder basketball as SGA is set to check back in.
44:48Staggering SGA's minutes.
44:50Still on the minute restriction after missing those last nine games prior.
44:55To the Denver game on Friday night.
45:00McCain takes a seat.
45:02Big high fives coming from his teammates as he goes back to the bench.
45:06Solid minutes for him here in the second quarter.
45:09Case in Wallace, a little push shot as he was able to maneuver below the free throw line.
45:13It's a tough shot, too, to get over a bigger defender after that big, hard, physical screen by Chet.
45:22I'm going to continue to build in that paint of the area, now with 32 points.
45:29And we get a whistle.
45:30Christie missed a shot.
45:31There might have been some activity, some holding between Harmstein and Gafford.
45:37Talked about those points in the paint.
45:39Something to look out for, one of the keys tonight.
45:44Ready with a nice, healthy number.
45:4758 points in that paint against the Nuggets.
45:51Over halfway there tonight.
45:55Hiddleston's strength.
45:57Now Holmgren trying to push.
46:00He will give it up to SGA.
46:03SGA right back to on Holmgren.
46:05That is a naked three.
46:06No.
46:10See the gravity of SGA.
46:13One all-star to another.
46:15Holmgren.
46:16As open as you're ever going to see him.
46:19The unselfishness of SGA with the basketball.
46:23He is always looking out for his teammates.
46:25Very unique, folks.
46:27Jake called his own number.
46:29Look pinball out of here.
46:33Look at a few misses of his first half, Jake.
46:36Six out of nine.
46:3813 points.
46:38Wallace had a strip on Middleton.
46:40And a block inside.
46:42Hardenstein just stuffed it on Gafford.
46:45And then we get a transition foul.
46:47As Holmgren got clipped on the shin.
46:50Man, they should take a look at that, man.
46:55Man.
46:57Stopped a fast break.
46:59Clipped the guy.
47:03Jets kind of limping a little bit here.
47:07How about this block at the rim?
47:10Oh, man.
47:11That was plush.
47:13Middleton right into the shin.
47:15And Chet's got those shin guards.
47:18Yeah, yeah.
47:18And you remember the other night
47:19when a little dork guy called for a clip on Jokic?
47:24He was tossed out of the game.
47:26I couldn't believe that.
47:27He was tossed out of the game on that play.
47:29And tonight, it's just a common foul.
47:39Messier once again going to work on Middleton.
47:41Got all the way to the cup too strong.
47:45A-bar, the handoff.
47:47Gafford in transition.
47:49A-bar!
47:51A-bar!
47:52A-bar!
47:53A-bar!
47:54A-bar!
47:54Gafford is playing with energy here in this first half
47:58despite the Thunder having a double-digit lead
48:01for the majority of the first 24 minutes.
48:04Shea will try to dribble it flat.
48:05Double-team comes.
48:07Dork.
48:09Decides to go inside.
48:10Hartenstein is going to get fouled
48:12and go to the free-throw line.
48:15Shea recognizing that double-team quickly.
48:25Second trip to the line for Hartenstein.
48:29He's got seven points.
48:31We've got to see it.
48:32He's saying that.
48:33You've got to see it also.
48:34A little bit of time on the back side.
