Thunder Vs. Jazz......or some shyt: #4 Thunder- #5 Jazz Playoff Thread

[Kinguno]

Crowder should have punched Westbrook in the face after that trip shyt

Like this man ain't have to suffer being kicked out of Boston, the death of his mother , and months in Cleveland

They need to switch the Utah/OKC game 5 with the HOU/MIN game 5. This series deserves to be on TNT. Much more interesting series

Rockets swept Utah, but I just don’t know if these are the same jazz from the regular season

It ain’t. It’s gonna take the rockets 6-7 to get these boys out. They’re playing that well.

 

[NoHalfWay]

OKC's offense runs like a pickup game .

As bad as Melo, Russ, and PG have been shooting from the floor you can’t even really fully blame them for it. These nikkas are taking shots in an offense that doesn’t even get them into a rhythm. Everything is contested, nothing is easy as it should be with all these bonafide scorers on the same squad.

I’m wondering what these nikkas at OKC even talk about after losses like this, do these nikkas even watch film and break this shyt down? Did they realize they were at the bottom of the league in assists the whole season? They really thought a coach as stout as Quin Snyder wasn’t gonna expose this?

That’s the type of shyt that no matter how many good players you have you ain’t gonna win against teams with actual rhythm in their offense. The same shyt happened to GSW against the Spurs the last game. Klay got cold, Dray and Iggy didn’t give much so they settled mostly for KD chucking off screens and they got embarrassed by lesser competition.

Now imagine that being your gameplay every time... that’s OKC.

the rockets wont struggle to score as much as OKC because of their playmaking ability.

the problem with the thunder is they don;t have any good facilitators. russ is not a PG and doesnt have good passing skills, neither does PG. this is why they dont have good ball movement. rubio and ingles are better passers and thats why their offense looks the way it does.

harden and cp3 can deliver the ball in a variety of ways in the pick n roll. pin point lobs, bounce passes, cross court to the corner, etc...

Fixed

They aren’t. Did they beat the jazz after the all star break? Okc swept the season series too but they didn’t play the Jazz after December.

Yeah we played them after all star break once but it didn’t matter. We dominated them all season during he matchups. A couple 20pt beat downs and the closest final score was 11 pts. We dominated them

Did you watch the game? OKC played HORRENDOUS. Rockets actually have an offense and will get them out in 4 or 5.

When Rockets cant score they drive to get to the line. When OKC cant score they start chucking 3's.

Depends on if the rockets play to their full potential. The rockets been in cruise control since mid to late March. The lack of urgency bothers me but I’m guessing that shouldn’t be a problem. The second round since they know what’s next after that.

Westbrook will never win a 'ship as the number one option. It's just not in the cards for him

Are OKC really about to go out in the first round?

They have the two best players in the series & reigning MVP.

You sure the two best players in the series aren't Mitchell and Gobert?

Yeah, that's something I never understood watching this season. With PG, Russ & Melo on the court at the same time, those cats should be getting easy shot opportunities.
