    Sad to see another superstar just getting his points from the FT line. Turning into the new Kobe in terms of foul calls. I understand though Allen was tough on him all night.

    This is why Morey says no to mid range jumpers.

    Memphis has more free throws in every game of the series except for 1, totaling a +28 ft disparity.

    He was an assistant to PJ Carlesimo who was even worse. They were 3-29 at the time. Even Bonehead was an improvement over that.

    Congrats Memphis. Well done. KD on suicide watch...Westbrook kickin his boots...GM Presti kickin himself for giving up Harden.

    Does this mean the end for Scott Brooks? If so, I sure hope the Zen Master does not take over.

    It's like the Harden trade, you just don't see the secret inner workings of greatness in okc's decision making.

    and by you, I mean everybody

    He never really coached. Westbrook made him look good.

    Pretty amazing how there's such a drought of quality coaching at the NBA level.

    Outside of Poppovich, Adelman, Vogel, Hollins, Carlisle, and Woodson...who else is there? Spoelstra is okay, but not on the level as the other guys.

    guess we have to appreciate what TMac did with no one...with the Rockets...

    Bc Durant was terrible tonight...knew he was bound for one stinker...after playing so well at such a high level...but as Kobe, TMAc, Carmelo, Lebron, Wade, and Harden will tell you... you have to have a number 2 to help...and that was extremely evident this series...

    Also...the OKC bigs are a joke...

    I had hoped the thunders to at least make it a close series. Well, don't feel sorry the thunders. They have been acting like they are the elitest team in the west and deserve everything.

    The Grizz will beat the Spurs next round and make it to the finals only to get spanked by the Heat. Hats off to them.

    Look Scotty Brooks deserves a ton of blame but Charles is putting it ENTIRELY on him. He is hardly giving any criticism to Durant himself.

    I agree. Tracy would have taken this squad further.

    I know Adelman's wife has medical issues but if he is able to coach, OKC should jump on him pronto.

    Spurs will win in 6 against the griz, if they survive the warrirors.
