The Westbrook Mean Mug!

The happiest people right now are Milwaukee fans. They about to get a haul of picks for Giannis and a good young prospect to build around. 8-)

Look man. Some people on this board had the nerve to say Shai was hooping like Kobe the last few years. This dude can't carry Kobe's bags to airport. Kobe would be killing this defense.

As a guy who has been in SGAs corner all season, this game is really disappointing.

Murray is so dumb..always finds himself trying to drive on the other team's best defender, for no good reason. just give the ball to the Joker, man..

Daginault and SGA isos aren't the recipe for a championship unfortunately for OKC

Ok so Denver outscored OKC 33-21 in 3rd. What was the story there? What adjustment did Denver make at the half?

Not sure if Dort should play another minute tonight.

Denver is definitely the thought team. Im quite baffled at what's going on in this series. I thought the Nuggets were a player short.

OKC can win but only if Dort doesn't see the floor for a single second in the 4th. Defensive specialists with no offensive game are liabilities in the playoffs. Plain and simple.

Denver scored 28 in the 2nd and 33 in the 3rd...Their offense is now fine...OKC hasn't scored more than 25 points in a quarter...Not fine.

You love to see it.
They aren't playing him straight up. They are in a zone or loading 2-3 guys his way every time he gets into his moves.

Other guys gotta make buckets or plays

The scariest thing about this ... if the Thunder do get eliminated, they have more than enough assets to pull a 73 win Warriors acquiring KD type of move :o buckle up
