Great decision kicking to Grant for the 3. Bricks it and they send Boston to the Ft line.

We're still going to find a way to lose this.

George is so hot and cold.

Well, we're not exactly the brightest team in the league.

it's impossible to have a gameplan when westbrook has the freedom to do whatever he wants. do you think billy donovan game plans westbrook going under screens and not defending kyrie behind the 3pt line? or that he gameplans westbrook iso'ing marcus smart? doubt it. westbrook is not the problem but he's part of why the thunder lack discipline and focus. can't have that when your star does not.

I'm just tired of the hate and blame people only see the wrong he does. I'm not saying he doesn't do any thing wrong but people only fault him . People ca't wait for us to do bad so they can show their hate for the dude. Him and Melo get the most hate i'v ever seen. Even players that abuse their wives don't get as much hate as them or this Okc in general. You can post things that prove him being better then people think and they just deny it. He gets no credit . People even deny his mvp. He won us some of these playoff series but Durant gets all the credit.


i don't hate him but if you're going to wear the big boy shorts you have to be a big boy. he should be held to the highest standards across the board. and his biggest weakness is that he's just so volatile.

Well the most obvious choice right now is sitting on the bench because we need to close with Grant because Billy The Great thinks so.

He should’ve ran a pick and roll with Adams or Grant or found Abrines again. Westbrook looks for his own shot too much sometimes. This is one of those times.

Refs are killing us this quarter. What a blatantly obvious flop.

The Celtics have lived at the FT line this quarter.

Nine point lead down to one.

True atleast we will get a good lottery pick . Boston looks pretty bad too i think they will finish 5th in the east.

Westbrook brick.
Westbrook brick.
Westbrook kicks to Grant in corner.
Westbrook bad pass to Adams.
Westbrook picks up 5th foul.

Only two good things he did was kick to Abrines.

Donovan wants us too shoot more threes instead of playing to our strengths which is why we lose so much. You live by the three you die by it.

My God Westbrook what the actual ****. Brick after brick and then he doesn't ever bother going after the rebound that leads to a 2nd chance point for the Celtics.

not only is westbrook 'doing what he wants' on offense, he's doing everything in his power to avoid having to defend kyrie irving.
