Hey PG, don't listen to all of those guys calling you "playoff pee". They're just haters. Go show them who's boss tonight! You're a beast!
:o LeBron is 0-7 in game winning/tying FGs in the finals. And is 20/116 or 17% in game winning/tying FGs in the 4th/OT for his career. That's historically bad :o

Please don’t let up. What happened last game won’t have the same impact if you blow this.

I expect it to be way closer, but execution on both sides, making FTs & longing turnovers puts them in prime position to take a 2-0 lead

Yea and Mitchell pushed Brewer in the back on the fast break and they missed it.

Too many easy buckets for the Jazz because of rebounding and turnovers.

Playoff Pee!

btw, hope you guys don't mind me posting. No joke, Westbrook, PG, and Melo have been my three favorite players alongside Derrick Rose over the last decade and a half.... so when they all came together (despite Melo not being... Melo anymore), I freaked out and became a much bigger Thunder fan.
:o LeBron is 0-7 in game winning/tying FGs in the finals. And is 20/116 or 17% in game winning/tying FGs in the 4th/OT for his career. That's historically bad :o

Random but how is Steven Adams so strong? Does he just deadlift for an hour at the gym every day? I'm curious what he does.
