Well maybe we needed a game like this. Westbrook and Paul George believe our team is fine but we are clearly not. We need a wake up call if we want to have a shot against the Blazers (won't stand a chance against Houston with the way Ferguson is defending)

It's so frustrating watching GS move the ball throughout the entire 5 man lineup, while we pass 1 time, or not at all.

We waited 40 minutes to move the ball for the first time tonight (Schroeder couldn't make the 3 but whatever)

TBH I've been watching college, it's a bad game after he's been great for like 3 weeks in a game I figured they'd lose. It's puppy time.

I'm going to bed. I've already lost two hours of sleep to this ****. No more. I'm done. If they don't care enough to at least show up and give effort, then I'm not going to waste any more time on them. They should be ashamed of themselves. All of them. We're shooting 32.5 % from the field. And have been horrible defensively as well.

At least the main problem of this team isn't Adams (which some could believe reading this forum blaming Adams all the time)

"love how Adams has been dumbed down offensively to last in FGA starters.

because its important he sticks with doing all the dirty work, so that others more deserving like Fergs, Grant, Nader, Schroeder etc and others get those opportunities.
Apparently they are the guys with all the potential.

Not saying Adams would have been fantastic, but I have seen a revolving door of guards going thru Billys system for 4yrs, and Adams has been used to set them all up and dumbed down for all the dirty work … and by the end of the season, our offense still sucks.
So the following year, Presti gets in a new lot players, everyones excited, but the exact same thing happens again.

Coming into the business end of the season and Playoffs, we dont have any where enuff payoff for all that offensive development
Wheres this big improvement in the starters, besides Russ and PG?
For sure Grants shown some improvement, but they havent been efficient enuff post ASB
Esp since ASB, when teams tighten up their defense, their offense has been stuttering.
This game Grant has 11 shots at 36%
Fergs 5 shots 20%, Adams 5 shots 60%.
Teams would rather Grant and Fergs take the shots.
Then Boogie gets to rest heaps on defense of Adams, cos hes not a threat on offense haha (except for off rebs).

Plus because our all year developing Offense has failed, u get Russ being frustrated and chucking up anything and everything.
Just really poor Coaching.

Im not saying OKC cant beat GSW or make a comeback … but its only on the backs of certain players playing outta their minds."

This goes on line with what I said regarding Adams: They have turned him into a packhorse for the other guys.

Still having an hard time blaming Grant because he's probably the most consistent Thunder player this year. But yeah he's having some bad games lately and tonight was by far his worst game of the season.

It's not.

I still am this way somewhat but after losses my entire day would be ruined a year ago. I'd get stressed, and pissy, and wouldn't want to do anything. It wasn't healthy. So this year I said I'd be done and I'm trying to hold to it, I'm starting to feel it coming on and wasn't sure so checked out. I'm a little better and just decided screw it.

But got a lol outta his shot chart.

Adams seems like the type to not care about total shot attempts. Maybe thats why Billy has just gone completely away from him. It makes zero sense. Adams has been poor for a while but hes still converting at a decent clip.

When Russ is 2 from 16(!!) And Grant cant get anything going you would think Adams would get at least 10 shots.

They should of gone at Boogie straight away. He is a shell of his former self. Get him off the floor then get russ to go at their terrible backup bigs.

There is a billy d ceiling that this team will always be trapped under.

Sam is paying crazy money for what? The 4-6th seed again?!

Melos not here yet the same things are still happening. Billy cant adjust once teams figure the thunder out

Knew this wasn't the Thunders night when that Grant stuff happened 4 minutes in & the refs straight up ignored the actual rules (apparently based on the last Blazers game) because Draymond just laid there until they gave in. Then the Warriors just started making everything for the rest of the first half & the hole was to deep to climb out of with the way everybody shot.

Russ started playing his weird passive game after he missed his first few shots where he just decided to attack & kick it out but everybody was missing everything so maybe 1 out of every 8 times it worked out. Boogie had 3 fouls forever & nobody bothered really going at the one guy everybody looks at as the guy you should attack. The few times he did actually attempt to do anything but pass off the attack he would throw up the wildest attempts possible & most of them would just pop out.
