    a lot of coaches give the ball to one of their best players late in the game and iso them. basically, every coach does it if they have a truly great 1-on-1 player.

    i'm sure OKC wants durant to shoot it but he can't get the ball.

    they should use durant like ray allen, but instead the coach/team is lazy and just goes iso westbrook all the time. when that's your only offense, you become predictable and easy to guard in crunch time.

    Westbrook is really trying to be the num one go to guy. He needs to settle back down to his num 2 role.

    Thunder looks lk they are playing street
    Ball by just letting teammates (mainly) RW
    Play one on one. This is the playoffs, move
    Around and cut to the basket:) damn

    ray allen can't get shots off anytime he wants to too you know. there's a reason why sometimes ray allen can be ghosts during a game b/c if a team wants to deny him the ball, they can for the most part.

    kevin durant is NOT ray allen. he's a franchise player, and it's time for him to develop a 1-on-1 game so the ball can be in his hands 100% of the time and make plays.

    you can't blame westbrook when he's the only guy who can take guys off the dribble. he just can't shoot that well that's all. but it isn't his fault really.
