Does Westbrook ever finish when he attacks the rim these days? It’s always a crash out and a miss.

Did that layup even hit the rim? Seriously. And then stays down. Again, that's basically a turnover.

It's only G1 of our series and the fear from the OKC fans is so obvious :lol: :lol: :lol:

That's not the championship mentality guys!


"plaese someone else take them out so we don't have to face them" :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:


Me: Man Jokic was angry on that play where he yelled at the ref

You: OKC FANS ARE SO SCARED AND INSECURE AND THATS WHY THEY DON'T HAVE A CHAMPIONSHIP MENTALITY

Take a breather guy

PS- I'm worried about every team in the west except Memphis lol

Jokic is one of those greats where he gets the ball and the other team collectively **** itself, it's amazing to watch

Defense wants to double off Westbrook but that's what Denver wants. Can't leave him open in the lane and that's on Kawhi to rotate.

He's just going in to fast. Mans is running at 200mph.

Gordon is such a great championship level player. Just always makes big shots and big plays.
