It sure looks like he's quit.

I think Phil could have got a lot out of him. I believed in the Westbrook for a long time. But this is just indefensible.

The Jazz didn't shoot especially well that quarter, but the Thunder are so inept at getting any rhythm on offense it doesn't matter.

OKC's big 3 are 11 for 32 from the field -- 34%.

Nah, overrated teams should show off just how overrated they are in the playoffs. Not every team with 3 big name players becomes the next top 3 team in the NBA.

Well we were just asking for a first round win, or even two wins, not becoming the next big thing

Yeah, I mean this was supposed to be the most anticipated 1st round series. Game 1 was spectacular, but since then it's been pretty much one-sided. :-?

Playoff Game P would have been more fitting.

He's Allen Iverson of this generation, really not surprising.

This is a career defining game for Westbrook. Down 3-1 getting outplayed by a rookie with home court advantage. You’ve added Paul George to your 47 win roster from last season. There’s zero excuses. It looks really damn bad for him as a player if they lose in 5.

Even though this is only his 3rd year I have a feeling Donovan is going to take the heat for this and get fired. This is twice in 3 years where he’s had the talent(and a series lead in ‘16) and his team has choked or not met expectations. Personally I would love to see him back in college cause he was a hell of a coach

That’s going to be a fun one, for sure. Wonder who guards Harden. Rubio right?

Ingles, Crowder, O'neale, even Exum. There are some defenders on the Jazz.

You’ve got to be kidding. Harden would roast all of them in ISOs & Pick & Rolls

Well, I'm pretty sure that you were sure that Westbrick would roast the Jazz. But see how that has worked out for OKC ? Now keep on laughing

If Doc Rivers didn’t cut Ingles way back. I honestly think that Clippers team could have gone to a finals. Probably would need a different coach but Paul, JJ, Ingles, Blake, Jordan starting lineup is money

Catchall · Post #3813 » by **Catchall** » Thu Apr 26, 2018 2:43 am

Jae Crowder is having a nice game. Kinda validates that Rodney Hood trade.

Thank god OKC is gonna be knocked out. Love seeing Westy lose lmao

Catchall · Post #3818 » by **Catchall** » Thu Apr 26, 2018 2:45 am

The way OKC is going on offense right now, the Jazz probably just need 40 or 45 points to win this game.

I don't think so.

Their 40 3 point shots a night are gonna test the defense. They'll pick and roll our bigs, and swing the ball. Or else put them in foul trouble with Harden Paul drive flops.

The Thunder let us set the terms with interior defense, and let us run our offense for the shots we like. We might still get some of our offense going, but they're just gonna out gun us from range.

See thats how i felt before i watched playoff harden
