We should be happy if Booker even approaches Klay's level of devastation as a spot up shooter. 9/15 from beyond the arc

Monumental chokejob by OKC blowing a 3-1 lead. Now they have to close it out in Oracle

Any chance we can get Durant to backup TJ next year?

... disgusting offensive performance by Oklahoma City down the stretch of the fourth quarter. I was criticizing the Thunder's possessions (to myself) as soon as I saw them starting to unfold, and the results were predictably bad—because the process was awful. Dribbling down the shot clock time after time, isolating Kevin Durant in a way that allowed Golden State's defense to load up, shrink the floor, help, and let Andre Iguodala really pressure the ball ... being sloppy with the ball ... why not actually run a Westbrook/Durant pick-and-roll? Why not run Durant through staggered or double-stacked screens?

Curry and Thompson hit some great shots, and the Thunder's defense was not as tight as in its previous two home games, but Oklahoma City really lost this game on offense, especially since the late turnovers allowed Curry and Thompson to get open in transition.

Durant and Westbrook: a combined 20-58 from the field and 1-13 on threes, plus 8 turnovers (against 14 assists). The Thunder recorded 0 assists against 6 turnovers in the fourth quarter.

That was one of the worst, ugliest performances down the stretch of a big game that I have ever seen—maybe the very worst. It was a disgrace to basketball.

... which will be virtually impossible, especially with the Warriors enjoying all the momentum. And the Thunder should have won this series; overall, Oklahoma City has been better in this matchup and the most impressive team in the playoffs. But down the stretch of this game, that team played some of the stupidest basketball that I have ever seen (at least in a big spot). Whether the blame belongs more with Durant, Westbrook, or Billy Donovan, I do not know, but when your point guard's athleticism far outweighs his intelligence (and, granted, Westbrook has been incredible overall in this series), and your head coach is a rookie in the NBA, maybe this kind of result is what happens.
