Yep. I don’t know what gets in his head but he singlehandedly can turn a lot of positives into a lot of negatives real quick.

Execution out of a timeout. I’m jealous.

Up 95-93, force a Boston miss, and we just stand there and watch the ball as Boston goes and gets the rebound with no contest. Boston predictably ties the game, we predictably go down and don't score, and Boston unsurprisingly goes back down and hits a 3 to take a 3 point lead.

0-4.

Fire Donovan. Blow this mess up. This team sucks.

There's not a more Thunder shot in the entire universe.

How many bricks has Westbrook laid in the 4th quarter? Jesus.

just how billy donovan drew it up. i'm sure westbrook didn't just decide he was going to take that shot, after all he said he makes them 90% of the time a couple years back.

changing the coach will do nothing. a lot more needs to change.

Man I’m done with this crap. It’s time to rebuild. It’s beyond time to rebuild. Nothing changes. Russ can’t throw the ball far enough to make a shot. Everyone underachieves here. Defense sucks. Offense is disgusting.

I would have pulled Westbrook before it even got to that point. He was abysmal in the 4th. We need a real coach that will hold these players accountable

Team sucks and the coaching sucks. It follows that the front office also sucks.
“If you're getting stops and you're making threes and the other team's not scoring, that's when you're going to see a huge point difference there,” coach Billy Donovan said.
