This has loss written all over it. Sloppy passing. Dumb iso. Blazers doing layup drills. Getting in the lane with no resistance lmao.

PG is literally playing PG. Donovan can't be serious here.

Blazers don't even have their best player. We look like we have regressed to the early season thunder. These turnovers are insane. Offense is stagnant. PG takes a wild shot and then barrels into Nurk to insure the Blazers have more momentum going into the half. This team is so damn frustrating.

Are we really going to lose to the Lillard-less Blazers at home?

The last two games we've looked like October/November Thunder.

They never changed. They just made the same shots. Donovan's still the same, shots still the same, mistakes still the same. Til he's gone, this is the Thunder. Just watching some college ball for a while.

I really need to take a step back and not watch this team for a bit. I can't. Getting outcoached by stotts AGAIN.

The difference maker was Russ missing 2 free throws and then leaving Aminu open for easy back to back 3's. This team is **** clueless. How many times did we get Ferguson 1 on 1 in the paint with Nurkic? Lazy. Careless passes. This team just doesn't give a damn right now. Donovan can't handle this job. Get him out. We are at home, Blazers without Lillard, 5 seed on the line, and once again, we aren't prepared.

Wow. Back-to-back stinkers on the road against the awful Suns, and at home to the Lillard-less Blazers. We're getting blown out at home by the bleeping Blazers without Lillard. Unreal.

We've reverted back to the complete and utter crap we were in October and November.

The most annoying thing with this team is that those issues are completely fixable. There's more than enough talent on the roster to be a very very good team. It's just the refusal to play winning basketball.

I'm jealous of the Blazers offense. Constant motion. Great pick and roll. Everyone rotates. We just stand around. We will never go anywhere with this jackass at the helm.

how to score on the thunder when andre roberson isn't playing:

Step 1: beat a perimeter defender off the dribble
Step 2: draw steven adams' attention
Step 3: pass the ball to someone else

following those steps means either carmelo anthony or russell westbrook has to actually play some competent defense. may as well just put the points on the board.
