This just in; You guys still suck ass.

Relax. I kid. I've been reading a lot not just on RealGM but else where covering topics circling the Lakers loss. How much the Lakers lost this one, how Kobe shot them out of it, blah blah etc. With not any of them giving the Thunder nearly enough credit. Bryant genuinely is nursing a few injuries here, though don't get me wrong because I don't think it would have changed the outcome tonight. Once he went out with a little over 3, you guys went on cruise control and so did the crowd. If there were a different turning point in the game, someone please help me find it because I can't. You guys' team deserves 90% credit for this win I thought. The defense was great, transition opportunities were executed often, and oh btw, who was that guy off the bench? Number 13. Yeah. Where the hell did he come from? Ah. I've been keeping an eye on him the moment of draft selection. Nice to see him make an appearance as well and step up. Not so nice that it happens now. Anyway, the Thunder deserve most of the credit for this win and I just wanted to let you guys know that, which I'm sure you all do and acknowledge that. Good win for your club.

Game 4 coming up Saturday. Now, I'd wish you cookies luck this time around but according to the script, this is supposedly where we cut your heads off like chickens. Fat juicy honey roasted delicious chickens. Enjoy.

really happy about the win but like Scotty Brooks said after the game, we still got to beat L.A. 3 more times. Very relieved to see Harden get lots of minutes in addition to Jeff Green sitting most of the fourth quarter. Green is too overmatched in this series due to his lack of size and we're much more effective with Ibaka and Collison out there from what I've seen the last 3 games.

Also got to give it up to Loud City, it was rockin last nite! I saw a quote from Kobe that said last nite was the loudest environment he's been in.

Now the team has to focus and take game 4. Dont want to celebrate game 3 too much.

Could go either way, this is basketball. I can see it go 4-1 and I can also see this becoming a 7-game series.
The games have been close, also in regular season. So far in the first 3, neither team has played good offense throughout a whole game, just for stretches. The defense has been dominant on both sides.
If the Thunder catch a good shooting night on saturday, they could easily win. If the Lakers do, they could win. However, I still think OKC has the advantage for the next game just because of the home crowd.
Will be big fight on saturday I believe.
Life may not be the party we hoped for but while we are here we might as well dance!

Hows it going Thunder fans... Raptors fan here (yeah I know). I just wanted to tell you guys congratulations on the win. I'm a huge supporter of Durant and think he is everything a star in the league should be. Very humble even though he has every right not to be... alot of people in Canada are pulling for your team and I personally hope you guys win the series and shock the world. I own a Durant jersey and intend on wearing it if this happens!

Tie up the series on Saturday, head back to LA all knotted up... and show them why you guys are one of the best road teams in the league. Best of luck the rest of the way!

The only thing that looks like a chicken in this series is Ron Artest and his hair.

So. This next game is ginormous. We all know what happens if the lakers wins game 4. As we heard something about chickens. But it's true. Lights out.

The Thunder have to win this game. HAVE TO if they want any shot at this thing.

I have to say though I think this Thunder team is very capable of winning the 4th game at home. Their D has been keeping them alive. They preach defense and it works. Playing at home does wonders for the role players. And the Thunder have one more game at home.

I want to add as well that it is great to see Westbrook having a great series and getting some national attention. It's funny to hear the guys on TNT talk about the Thunder because they haven't watched many game. They are surprised about how good Westbrook is and what Ibaka can bring to the table. Chris Webber didn't even know how to say his name. But he will :wink: .

just watching the game, through 3 quarters
What's up with KD, he's been awful, rushing shots, not passing.
He's got worse shot selection then Kobe.

Return to Oklahoma City Thunder
