"We stink tonight": Shai makes no excuses after OKC's lamentable defeat in Indiana

The Oklahoma City Thunder suffered a harsh defeat against the Indiana Pacers in the sixth game of the NBA Finals. They were playing to win the championship, but by the end of the third quarter, they were trailing by 30 points. Therefore, the team's key figures, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Jalen Williams, and coach Mark Daigneault, have candidly discussed the loss and their expectations for Game 7, which will determine a truly historic season for them.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander

"The way I see it, we sucked tonight."

"We need to learn from this. We have one more game for all the work we put in, and so do they. The best team on Sunday will win."

"Some were just careless mistakes, not being focused, not being in the game."

"They played with more intensity than us tonight as well, and when a team plays with more intensity, it usually leads to turnovers."

"We didn't play like we had a chance to win the championship."

"That's why the night ended as it did. We got exactly what we deserved, what we earned. We have to own it."

Mark Daigneault

"It was disappointing. It was collective. It wasn't just one player. We simply weren't where we needed to be on either side of the court for much of the game. We have a lot to improve before the seventh game."

Jalen Williams

"It all just got very stuck, in my opinion."

"Our defense wasn't good. When you're constantly taking the ball from your own basket and facing an organized defense time and time again, it affects you. Also, we didn't do a good job of trusting the teammate to make the next play as we did in the fifth game."
