True. Even though George would probably have missed at least one free throw. :lol:

Anyone have the replay from the local OKC channel? They had the behind the basket camera angle I wanna watch to see if George jumped into Gobert or not. From the side angle, looks like a foul. But I gotta see if George altered his trajectory to get contact.
In '03-'04, Jerry Sloan coached the ESPN predicted "worst team of all time" to 42-40.

This is the knock on Westbrook and that he takes so many shots and the offense is not in a rhythm because of it, PG is much better than this and on a better team I doubt he would play this badly.

OKC had some many chances to tie the game but missed a ton of open threes and didn't foul any of the Jazz players in time for them to even have a chance in the closing seconds, all those triple doubles don't mean anything unless you can take your team deep in the playoffs and Westbrook choked this season.

Westbrick bricked 2 airballs in LAST 5 MINUTES let alone simply missed shots and you are still trying to put the blame on referee's shoulders instead of rightfully bashing this overrated choker with empty head lol

He just lost his natural reaction


Too much emotion and pure anger when he plays the game. He’s an absolute **** off the court. Watch his post game interview tonight. Treats the press like ****.


you mean like greg poppovich, mike kryskevski, bill belichek, bill parcells and nick saban?

I was rooting for the thunder to lose cause of PG but damn they got robbed of that foul call. Lol. Yikes.

Oh well. Come on George we’ll bring the brinks truck for ya!

This series went down exactly as how as I expected it to. No surprises here. The better team ALWAYS wins a seven game series barring injuries, unusual circumstances.

He got screwed on some calls, but he also just straight up took terrible shots and missed pretty easy 3pt shots. It's in his kitchen now that he can't hit game-winning / clutch shots considering how bad he's been his whole career with that.


Thanks for the PSA. I've changed my mind about OKC getting screwed now.


I wasn't trying to change your mind about them getting screwed on calls. They did. I even said as much. Just that they hurt themselves as much as the refs.

Oh, they do it all the time, but that one looked like George might have leaned sideways to draw the foul, which they do call, but they technically shouldn't

I'm no Russ fan(actually hate him, the nba player) but I liked what he did to the fan. Be the heel you don't owe anything to him or the team he supports.

I agree that shouldn't be a foul ideally. But that garbage is called almost 100% of the time in this league. They can't start changing the interpretation of the rule in Game 6 of a playoff game with 15 seconds left.
