Bradley Beal is going to be a freaking stud. Boy did I underestimate him coming out of the draft. Holy hell.

if they grizzlies end up losing this series, they may not be able to sleep for months.

Crazy Idea: The Thunder should trade Westbrook

At this point, OKC and Memphis should just play one 5 minute period with the score at something like 93 all. So much overtime

The Thunder are a competent head coach (i.e. George Karl, Lionel Hollins) away from being a championship team --- dynasty. I watch their games, and I see so much talent, but zip zero nada strategy. It's like watching a game of 5-on-5 at the local Y whenever they get the ball on offense

I'm getting a sneaky suspicion that OKC might offer Russell Westbrook to the Lakers for their top-5 draft pick

OKC would be completely stupid to do that. Durant will leave them in a heart beat if they do.

Westbrook was 10-for-31 shooting tonight. They will blame him if they lose this series, and he may force his way out to his hometown of Los Angeles

Take way more than a top 5 pick to get a top 4 PG in the league and the most athletic PG in the history of the league.

Westbrook and Durant aren't good fits together, Durant needs a pass first PG than can score, not a shoot first, 2nd and 3rd point guard

Not when that top-5 pick might be the much hyped Andrew Wiggins, or maybe even Dante Exum

To be honest, Westbrook isn't the problem. Thunder need a coach, not a trade

that play Brooks drew up was terrible, should've had Durant driving to the rim where he could either try to finish/get fouled or stop and shoot a short jumper
