Oh well. Maybe we needed are butt whipped to wake us up :-?
Hmm...yes, one thing to consider is that Sefolosha guarding Paul could have made a difference in Paul continuously taking advantage of OKC in the isolation down the stretch.

"At the end of the day, if you're a shot-blocker, you're going to get dunked on. It was a great play that he made. Obviously, I wish I wasn't in it, but it was a great play that he made.

"It was a clean dunk-on. I was just trying to stop him from getting to the rim. I didn't know what happened. I was just trying to get to the rotation. Our defensive coverage broke down."

Durant is insane. Good thing we have CP3 and Blake.

Even though we led by 20 much of the game, it never felt like a blowout game to me. I think everyone knew with the Thunder that we couldn't let up, if they got it to 10 then it's basically a game again.

CP3 was awesome last night. But it also helps to have a deep roster, so CP3 can save a little extra for the 4th.

No way! I'd sooner take Bobby Simmons back than Thornton haha. I think there's a reason no one has been looking to pick him up.

Thornton was recovering from some injury. He had an initial surgery, but wasn't healing properly. So he ended up having the problem corrected and he's finally healthy enough to play again.

I couldn't stand his ball stopping tendencies. Jab Step, Jab Step, Clank. He was at his best as an undersized 4 that attacked the basket. I don't have a problem with hoping that he finds spot somewhere, I just don't want it to be here.

He was a pretty good player, but only for a bad team. Could score but not high efficiency.

Simmons OTOH was a good defender, which just about any team can use.
