Westbrook and Kd have 8 turnovers combined this first half. yeesh.
Its too bad the NBA suspended Randolph. This lead would be about 10 right now.

I hate when OKC is in the penalty and they just get freethrows galore

Re: Around the NBA 8.0 (Playoffs Edition)
We heard for a week that the "hand is part of the ball" after that "block" on Lebron against the Nets but I guess it doesn't apply to Durant.
Memphis's offense has gotten it a good look on almost every single possession but it hasn't taken them all. Gasol three times got the ball in the deep post and didn't shoot, Allen was at the rim and tried to pass it, Conley was at the rim and passed it, etc.
On that last possession, everyone and his dog knew Durant was pulling up for three...well, everyone other than Prince.

They have to run plays for him, i.e., set some double screen action.
Conley's injury is really hampering him in staying in front of Westbrook.

I've never wanted to punch someone in the face so badly. Really hoping to run into him at a game one day. I won't hesitate.

It's over guys. It's a close game at half.
NBA and the refs are not going to let the new golden boy get eliminated in the first round.

I hate how such great Game 7 heading in was ruined by the NBA wanting their Golden Boy to advance. Whether the Heat win or lose, i'm taking a break from the NBA next season
