You gotta take the good with the bad with Westbrook

Clutch steals like this one in the playoffs only happen in movies.....like this was literally some Tom Sheppard in Above the Rim shyt









At the end of the day OKC's coaching has to get better. Morrow and Payne should be playing more minutes. There's a complete lack of spacing at times and you don't have to respect most of OKC's offense.


As for that shot, it looked dumb but it seemed as tho since the Clippers and Doc's philosophy was to foul in that situation he would throw one up trying to get the 3 shot foul. It was stupid but it was clear what happened to me immediately.

Come hold this L @Gil Scott-Heroin . Thunder got to the finals putting the ball in Harden's hands. Top 3 closer in the game. :umad:

Sabo is a retard. Thunder ain't sniffing the finals again.
The Thunder still have a greater chance of making the Finals than Houston does. And I'm going to enjoy tagging you when Harden stinks it up in the playoffs again.

:mjpls:

It's crazy how that play and the Chris Paul meltdown turned two series losses into series wins for OKC.

Ask yourself this, why isn't Roberson on the court late in games regularly? Then ask yourself what player could help their improve their defense late in games, if he could shoot?

There defense is shyt for the whole game not jusy the end. I see what you tried to do there though. Somehow roberson holding the thunder back when anyone with common sense can see there problems are team related etc... Team defense and team ball movement late in games. They had Kevin martin years ago who could shoot and he did absolutely nothing there because okc runs nothing but isos which works for 90% of the game. And because there defense is shyt they cant afford these late game bog downs.

both durant and westbrook were retarded this game and both were at fault. people will look at westbrooks dumbass three in the last possession but KD dumbass isoballing in the 4th is to blame for even putting them in that position. and okc never plays defense.

That's not what I'm saying. I'm saying it's an issue when your SHOOTING GUARD, (let me say that again so you understand - SHOOTING GUARD) is 0-4 for the game, and has regular outings when he scores ZERO points. It's a problem - stop playing dumb and acting like I'm saying it's the MAIN problem. The point is it's an issue when they can't play him in certain lineups because he's a liability on the offensive end. Especially which it's compounded by the fact that Durant and Westbrook are counted upon to provide too much on the offensive end, and often find themselves overplaying their hands.

Kd and Russ are gonna iso and shoot even if they had Ray Allen in his prime standing in the corner

And when they do pass the ball ibaka will think that's his cue to shoot up a rainbow brick... I swear that nikka starts every game like 3-3..and ends up like 3-10

:jbhmm: You do realize that's occurence #1032013 where Westbrick effectively ends the game with his stupidity, right? I'll take your changing of the subject as silent consent.
I'm not changing the subject. Did you ever bother to watch the closing stages of the game? Durant made more mistakes than Westbrook. Yes what Russ did was stupid, but the game was lost before that, and Durant was mostly responsible for them pissing away that lead. In the last 5/6 minutes:

Durant was 1 from 4, three turnovers and was playing passively AFTER Westbrook directly gave him the ball.
