    These people play for millions of dollars but they can't make a proper video referee system.

    Just unbelievable.

    21st century and they can't freaking look at a VIDEO and make the calls correct ?

    Earlier in this thread, someone said they've never seen WB get tired. Welcome to your first time. ;)

    No ones ever questioned Russ' effort, but 46 points on 43 shots is terrible, any. single. way. you. put. it. In retrospective, just compare it to Harden's 56 point game, where he was 19-25 (12 fta), it's just a huge negative for the team.

    People will say PG/Melo were trash and that's true, but it's not time to build chemistry on the day of an elimination game, as a leader your supposed to look for your teammates even if they're shooting like ****, it's called motivation... and the only time WB looks for his teammates is when he has 6 assists with 7 minutes left in the 4th. Russ' failure wasn't built tonight, it was built since the season began.

    Just imagine if Harden shot it like 25 times more just because Ryno, EG and CP weren't making a shot, imagine how many more games we'd lose, imagine how terrible our chemistry would be. Westbrook will never win playing for himself.

    I just love how delusional Royce Young is.
    He seriously thinks PG is staying..because they are going to show him tapes of game 5 so PG and WB can build a partnership together.
    What happened to the tapes from the other 82 regular season games? Did they burn them??

    I am ROFL.

    Yup, I wasn't kidding.

    He literally looked like he was bawling out there.

    And then he says how Westbrook took 46 shots which shows he has heart.

    This guy truly madly deeply loves Westbrook.

    Btw, my favorite part of that Royce Young interview was when he said that it is possible that Melo could convince PG to stay...as in let's give it another shot.

    LOL....PG and RW don't want any part of Melo after his playoff showing. And Melo is staying put in OKC. He ain't giving up 28 million. Melo is always about Melo.

    Jordan was a ball hog.

    He picked the right guy.

    I don't think I'm doing anything wrong though. I'm not happy the Rockets are facing an injured Utah team I'm happy OKC is out of the playoffs. IM REALLY HAPPY OKC IS OUT OF THE PLAYOFFS.

    Quin Synder didn't sound like he had any confidence at all that his team could beat the Rockets

    "yeah, paul. and guess what, these guys want me to come off the bench."

    "yeah, that's crazy. all game 6 i was looking over thinking 'i hope melo doesn't come off the bench'. "

    "thanks man. wait..."
