We didn't went KD at PF in this game right? I don't think i saw that from the lineup.

It was there for a few minutes in the second, and then after Perk fouled out. But not for extended periods, no.

Durant was absolutely fantastic tonight. I bow down to him, probably one of his best games as a Thunder vs a great team.

**** dwayne wade. I don't care if you think you're fouled, shut the **** up and get back on defense.

****

So glad we dominated this whole game

Great win by you guys! Thanks for giving us a bit of breathing room from the Heat!

I think this game is an indication of how well the guys seem to be maturing. They didn't completely collapse when Miami went on the run in the second quarter to tie the game. I'm used to seeing forced shots, mental lapses on defense, etc. Instead, they went in at half, came out and got back to where they were in the first quarter. Maturation, focus, confidence, whatever it is, it's refreshing to see.

Might as well forfeit the postseason if we can't even get defensive boards...

God I **** hate Westbrook, Durant and Harden...

Durant especially, "humble" my ass

Offense (besides Durant) never really got going and Westbrook was really sloppy, but otherwise this was a great performance. Probably the only game this year I can't complain about the coaching, and the defense was fantastic. Perkins made an impact even with fouling out in 18 minutes, Ibaka protected the paint and rebounded. Durant was great as usual.

The offense wasn't great but the Heat are a very good defensive team.

Oh, so brooks still need to improve. Can't believe he still play Durant at 3 when we don't have a real backup 3.

Brooks' rotations and adjustments were fine in this game. He coached a great game tonight. The sole complaint I had was keeping Thabo in too long in the third quarter, and bringing Thabo back in with Maynor in the 2nd quarter when Westbrook picked up his 3rd foul. But Thabo did a decent job on Wade especially in that third.

There were a lot of nuanced adjustments in the second half that I noticed, especially on defense. Perkins' influence was also noticeable. Really excited about this game and what it means going forward.

Never thought that i see you typing brooks+ great coaching game together, so it must be true.

I do think he likes thabo for the intangibles. and considering the wings that miami has it's kind of ok.

This Thunder team is awesome to watch.

You guys are gonna be the top seed for the future years to come. Hopefully the team stays intact and wins a ring in the future.

I'm not a World of Warcraft guy, but here's what I would say:

"Pwnd."

Although, that caption is taken out of context, along the picture. LeBron had just about put a hole in the floor with the flop he took off KD's shoulder. All Kevin could do was laugh.

Just finished watching the game - simply incredible. I can't believe we actually played solid defense for 48 minutes. My hat comes off to Brooks for actually implementing sensible line ups this time. We actually went big!

One thing I really loved was when Perks yelled at Ibaka for getting out of position in the 1st. That's what we need more of - Perk will be a great tutor for Ibaka.
