Rubio/Gobert is such a great core to build around. Favors and all the wings on Utah are fantastic, but Rubio and Gobert make it all work on both ends imo. Really like how this team is built.

Westbrook is single handedly screwing the thunders defense up

Over the back calls are so inconsistent. If the big man that goes over the back of another player taps it out to a teammate I swear it's never called for a foul, but when they try to rebound it themselves it's always a foul.

OKC pre-emptively pulling Adams to avoid picking up a 2nd foul. That might be a mistake. It's not just the rebounds it's the gravity that gives shooters space.

Now they're going to run motion and slash at the rim.

What a re-birth Ricky Rubio has had in Utah

Love that Schefty's doing some NBA now. He's one of the very few gems left at ESPN.

Mitchell is too damn good for a rookie. You gotta wonder what Detroit must be thinking right now since he was picked right after theirs.

He’s good, but he gets awfully butthurt when he gets beat to a scoop.

Why is Westbrook settling for jumpers on the fastbreak.

I feel like Patrick Patterson has been underutilized all year for OKC.

Westbrook had an easy shot and passed it out. Lucky Patterson hit the shot.

OKC spreading the floor looking to drive and kick. Interesting.
