OKC @ GSW 1/27 

Post#1 » by CKRT » Sat Jan 28, 2012 2:27 am

GS has had a rough start but Curry always plays well against us. Here's hoping Harden destroys Ellis. :cool:

We've split the last 4 games by less than 6 points. Tip off at 9:30 central.

Good luck guys. OKC/GSW is a friendly rivalry I always look forward to. Not saying we're at your level of course, just that these games tend to bring the best of both teams and end up being a lot of fun to watch.

Turnovers are killing us.

At least we won? That game was really ugly but I only caught the first 3 quarters.

Not the prettiest game to watch, seemed like there were 60 turnovers between both teams tonight. Our talent level just suffocated them at the end. We need to clean up the turnovers/rebounding/and lack of focus on the defensive end if we want to win the Championship.

I thought the defensive strategy and effort was really good. The Thunder limited the two most dangerous players on GSW roster in Ellis and Curry and let some other players have some open looks in the process. The chances of Klay Thompson beating the Thunder were low. Westbrook was a good part of this.

The turnovers were a problem, regardless of pace.

I think we've all witnessed this but I'm not sure it's received the conversation it deserves. Harden's improvement since the Green trade has been as big or bigger than the jump Westbrook or Durant has made in their respective careers. I'm in awe of his abilities right now.
