    You're kidding, right? 43 shots, had 10 assists at the half and then wouldn't pass the ball afterword

    Rhyno has been Rhynothing so far. Might as well just focus on grabbing rebounds and defense.

    I don't expect Ryno to be a good player anymore. Just get out of the way and swing the ball.

    That was wild. All game long the Rockets looked dead and just could never quite get close enough. The Thunder had that game and Russell's selfish play just took them completely out of everything they were doing right. You could argue it all fell apart at the end of the 3rd when Russ sat, but they got back up with Russ at the start of the 4th and from there he just wanted to be a hero. Hero ball can save you some games, but they didn't need hero ball tonight.

    Big time comeback win. Congrats Rockets! 2-0 is big, but let's not ever forget being up 2-0 and still losing a series. TWICE. Stay focused!

    Westbrook's board gets him triple-double.
    Russell Westbrook grabs Clint Capela's miss giving him his sixth career playoff triple-double and his first one on the road.

    u figure they would at least say that we won...... , but nah got to bold the most important thing to them.

    He DID pass the ball. The last 10 shots of Westbrook's statline came because he was basically the only one who had a chance of making shots. Oladipo was 1/6 from the field. McDermott was doing well, but I don't remember if he was on the floor. No one else can be counted on to make shots.

    I was shi**ting bricks the whole game, right until the end.

    Westbricks, to be precise.

    I agree 100% It just felt like his guys outside McDermott weren't going to show up. They were in the game all the way up until the end with Russ chucking. Westbrook played the whole 4th. if he was fresh maybe this is a Win for OKC>
