    Really annoying that it is likely Donavan Mitchell will miss game 2. He is questionable and it sounds like "they will be smart about it" e.g. wait for game 3.

    OKC getting let off the hook again.

    I just don't know how Utah can generate enough points if Mitchell isnt available. And even then if he is 70% that might not be good enough.

    What is laughable about OKC is, they can just keep missing shots because they get so many offensive rebounds they can make up for less shooting if PG isnt available.

    Wouldn't matter if Mitch plays and PG doesn't, we got Kenneth Mauer officiating this game so I would expect Rudy Gobert to foul out by the 3rd quarter.

    OKC always come out like trash before they go on a 12-0 run.

    Its Oklahoma City vs Salt Lake City, I'm sure the NBA knows this isn't exactly a windfall in terms of ratings.

    OKC will win this series fairly easily. Utah just doesn’t have the offense, I fear.
