    Maybe Cisco just has OKC's number. He doesn't seem to play consistently well against anyone but them.

    I wish someone else stepped up today other than Harden.

    Only two players in double figures, not good enough.

    Not too mad about Bev was too aggressive. You take the bad with the good, and there is more good in his game than the bad. I am sure he will learn, play more poised defense than being just a pitbull. That's going to take time.

    We desperately need to become good 3 point shooting team. We shoot a lot that means there are a lot of possessions where we are not getting anything. Improve our 3 point shooting percentage and we can beat teams such as OKC and Clips. If we don't improve our shooting than we are doom in the playoffs.

    Yes he did give the thunder easy buckets when he turned it over in 4th while the momentum was swinging our way.

    He was over aggressive the whole game, hence his 6 fouls. One of his worst game.

    disagree, Parsons D was terrible on KD. Garcia did an okay job. I would like to see Pat Bev on KD.

    On a brighter note, we're 4th seed now and Blazers is 5th :p

    We had very poor quarters against both LAC and OKC and still put up a fight in both games. Need more consistency throughout the games. Besides that, we fought hard and didn't quit. Gotta erase this one from the memory and move on to the Bulls!

    Portland loss today so no damage on that end, however, we did lose 1/2 game to the Clippers.

    Probably expected loss, but I really thought we had a shot at them today. No biggie. What I am surprised is how badly Howard play today. This is a game he could and should have dominated and he didn't.

    No solution. We need to avoid them at all cost.

    Harden quit at the end. Why give the ball to Parsons?

    The coaches should watch games of Memphis beating OKC and learn how they slow him down. You really can't shut him down, but hopefully we can learn how to slow him down to limit his damage.

    Dwight has a limited offensive game at best.

    We deserved to lose this game. Way too many missed shot attempts that would usually fall and Bev played with emotion and not with smartness. He let his emotions get the best of him.

    Bev worst game of the season. Fouling Westbrook twice on 3pts shots, especially that late critical one. Just not smart.

    I honestly feel Bev psyched himself out. He started the game out well and got into Westbrook's head, but after that he just was way too aggressive. I am all for hustling and being aggressive but Bev has to be a lot smarter than that. He needs to understand that he is more than likely not going to block a Westbrook jump shot.
