If OKC goin keep playing this (my turn, my turn, your turn)offense, then one of the big three goin have to come off the bench.

westbrook gotta stop forcing so many shots and not just the jumpers. going into traffic against 3 dudes, he's not getting the calls or the basket a lot of times.

the thunder offense is always good in the first quarter. i think they can coexist fine. they create good looks for one another early, but they never keep it going. i feel a lot of that is westbrook. he is TOO aggressive at times. when he starts forcing things and doesnt make shots everything falls apart. he tries to make up for misses by gambling on defense, causing that end to fall apart too.

hes got all that athleticism but doesnt realize everything doesnt have to be 100 mph

I'm not saying Melo was the problem. He played great. But they need someone that can bang inside . Obviously Adams isn't that , he's a defensive anchor.

They need a legit post up option. Plus the defensive switch isn't working. Especially with Westbrook sagging and letting the switch happen on every play

naw, cant blame him...the game shouldnt have come down to that...they were up damn near 25-30.....you just have to give the spurs credit: they never stopped playing when they got down, while the thunder did when they got up....

tbh i never expect any team to hold a big lead they get in the first quarter, especially on the road.
