Late Saturday night, Chet Holmgren sat in front of his locker and tried to make a postgame interview about anything but him. For Holmgren, Game 7 was a disaster: Four points, four rebounds, two blocks. In 33 minutes, Holmgren attempted two shots. It punctuated a forgettable series in which Holmgren averaged a paltry 10.7 points per game.
“At the end of the day, it’s always about us trying to win a basketball game,” said Holmgren. “Us as a collective, the Thunder team trying to win the basketball game. And that’s what’s it’s always going to be.”
