    One bull**** shot with the possibility to change so much.

    That miss means 95% series is 2-1 and I fully believe we have a strategy now to win games and take the series.

    We hit some FTs, we get this. Plus, those turnovers by Harden were rough. Hope this series gets extended cuz this is good experience for our young team.

    Another moral victory guys? This is a learning experience for our group and hopefully they take it to heart and come back next season strong and ready.

    Lin shouldn't have played. That's on both Lin nd McHale.

    Harden is not a 1st option. A solid 2nd option but no first option

    Without Westbrook, but yes. This team has shown it can come back from anything...too bad they lose close games all the time.

    How come Asik was a non-factor in this game?

    Maybe we could have gone back to Beverley in the endgame. Sad, I didn't get to see AB vs. Fisher in the 4th

    What an amazing comeback. I thought the key that spurred it was Houston’s defensive effort on Durant to start the 2nd half. Even one-armed Lin did a little bit to help, by cutting off Durant’s right side several times, preventing him from driving in. Also, rebounding was so much better. It was just all around effort by the team, a little here and there by a different player, to claw back in it. Garcia was the player of the game for Houston. He did especially well defending Durant, and hit the biggest shot in the game with less than a minute to go to give Houston a 3pt lead.

    I really thought Houston had this one. Durant got the lucky bounce on that 3, but Harden made two big TOs. His 2nd TO with 30sec left was just horrible.

    Why didn't we bring Beverley back in?

    So many dumb TOs down the stretch

    Welp. At least we are putting up a better fight than the Lakers are against the Spurs. HOORAY FOR MORAL VICTORIES.

    I'll tell you this: The Thunder may not make it out of the next round.
