And with Westbrook on the bench, the Rockets turn a 10 point deficit at the end of the 3rd quarter into a three point lead two minutes into the fourth quarter.

Oladipo and Adams have to go. Unbelievable.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion dude. If you disagree, fine, but I think you're blinded by your fandom to what Westbrook truly is.

There's one person on the planet that thinks if you replaced Westbrook with George Hill, the Thunder would be better. It's absurd belief and, really, just flatout wrong.

You don't know that. You've given me no reason to change by belief in what a guy like Hill would bring to this Thunder team that would make them better. I've stated all of my thoughts on it on the GB, however all you have done is run back to the perceived safety of your own teams board to hideaway and try to trash my take.

Keep the sig, and maybe stick to the Thunder board if you need that safety net. They'll provide you the comfort it looks like you need.

I'm sorry, but I see no reason to argue against such an absurd and, quite frankly, stupid belief.

It's funny because at the trade deadline people on this board said Lou Williams was a chucker and we didn't want him. Maybe Presti has his minions posting here.

Russ had got to stop shooting. They're baiting him to to it all on his own.

Grant sold that nicely

100% off of Ariza.

We are so dumb OMG

NaturalThunder · Post #469 » by **NaturalThunder** » Sat Apr 22, 2017 3:48 am

I wonder what it's like to have 3.5 (Ariza being the half) perimeter players that can create their own shot.

We're about to blow this.

Donovan once again getting cute with dumb lineups.

NaturalThunder · Post #471 » by **NaturalThunder** » Sat Apr 22, 2017 3:50 am

We're playing about as well as we can possibly play and we're still about to blow this because the Rockets, 1-8 or whatever, just have better players than we do by quite a large margin.

They are just better. They have so many scorers.

I think it's what needs to happen. Russ has to demand better players around him.

Grant has no business being in the game.

Pillendreher · Post #475 » by **Pillendreher** » Sat Apr 22, 2017 3:56 am

Tough shots by both Grant and Russ.

He just drove, scored, and didn't fall over.

Adams was in the game?

Pillendreher · Post #479 » by **Pillendreher** » Sat Apr 22, 2017 4:02 am

Russ getting bailed out by Adams after ignoring a wide open Dipo in the corner.

NaturalThunder · Post #480 » by **NaturalThunder** » Sat Apr 22, 2017 4:05 am

Why the heck did we foul in the backcourt?

That was a stupid decision.
