Blindly take out kanter despite him doing fine defensively. All he was doing was getting points and rebounds don't want that....nice 3 point play adams

Kanter sucked offensively in the third quarter. Of course Adams blew an easy layup when he got breathed on and then bricked the free throws.

I wish Russ had his ten assists so he wouldn't waste time passing to the other jokers on this team.

Westbrook just isn't fair.

On another note, Adams is back to being a huge liability on the FT line. Over his last 30 games (including tonight) he's shooting 52/110 from the FT line which is good for a whopping 47.3%. And he had two misses waved off tonight late in the game because of lane violations.
Said in a thread about which point guards would make OKC better if they replaced Westbrook:

Yea his free throw shooting is bad. I can't believe how bad he is at finishing point blank shots when he gets fouled. He's got to go up stronger with the basketball.

Outside of Russ/cupcake I feel like all of our players have always been horrible at finishing through contact. Dion being the most Lol-worthy, any time somebody looked at him funny he screamed and threw the ball off the bottom of the backboard.
“If you're getting stops and you're making threes and the other team's not scoring, that's when you're going to see a huge point difference there,” coach Billy Donovan said.
