Oklahoma City Thunder head coach Mark Daigneault exuded confidence with his comments on Game 2 of the NBA Finals.

LAKEWOOD, Colorado: Haiden Deegan has been perfect in the first two rounds, but Chance Hymas was fastest in Thunder Valley qualification. Hymas backed up his qualification speed with the holeshot. Tom Vialle settled into second with Deegan in third. Mikkel Haarup converted his strong start into a fourth-place running position.

The Oklahoma City Thunder heavily relied on their three-headed defensive POA monster. Lu Dort, Alex Caruso and Cason Wallace usurped Chet Holmgren and Isaiah Hartenstein in the hierarchy. It wasn't the preferred result,

They have carved out huge roles on our team — they are a huge reason why we're here,” Daigneault said. “They are in an uncommon position."

Chance Hymas (2:19.406) has shown bursts of speed in the first two rounds and he's fast again in Round 3 at Thunder Valley Motocross Park Qualification 1. The real story is whether he can avoid mistakes in the motos.

The race for the top of the Netball Super League is still alive with one eye on the Grand Final. Both clubs have already qualified for the post-season play-offs but the importance of finishing top of the Super League and the prize of securing a home semi-final makes this a key match.

Zach Lowe and Draymond Green believe Mark Daigneault overthought his Game 1 strategy by changing the Thunder’s starting lineup.

Heavy rain on Thursday and persistent moisture on Friday means qualification is the first time the riders have seen this configuration of the track.
