I haven't paid attention to OKC lately but was thinking they must have had some horrible skid to have that record or maybe Westbrook was hurt.

The thing is he's looked like his old self for stretches earlier. Maybe father time just hit him like a brick wall the last 3 weeks.

Yea, the sign of age is that looking like his old self becomes much fewer and far between. We're at 43 games and coming in to tonight he was a .497 TS% / 97 Ortg player, it's been a consistent decline for the last 4 seasons though with this year now being the biggest drop.
Really don't want to see him playing 25-26 mpg in the post-season. He should be playing 12-15 mpg and only playing more if he's hot that night, and as soon as the heat cools down, you get him out.

Yeah I would love for Felton to take more of his minutes. It's bizarre though. Crawford can't even make an uncontested floater...He missed the rim by two feet. What must be going through his head...

I didn't like how we closed the 3rd. There was a stretch where OKC kept scoring on consecutive possessions. It's been an OK start to the 4th.

Ok I think now I can relax since we're up 27. I was nervous at the start of this quarter.

We're still undefeated in 2017 with 7 straight wins. I hope Chris's thumb is ok and Jamal Crawford needs to stay on the bench. BTW nice job by the bench to step up in the 2nd half.

Barkley said if the Clippers don't win it this year, Clippers shouldn't keep both Paul and Griffin.

I'm fine with Jamal playing like crap if it means taking less shots, slowly getting out of the rotation, and not hurting us in the playoffs. Having 10+ points on 30% shooting and playing heavy minutes would not be any better. Unfortunately, if Chris misses some more games, Austin and Felton will be under a lot of pressure.
