    Pathetic start. Good thing they are playing OKC. Can't do this against the Spurs.

    capela even fumbled that pass before dunking it. harden doesn't have more help when 2 of his starters are outright sabotaging our chances.

    We will be fine .

    Clint will be fine

    The d has been fine

    We've just missed open looks

    Playoffs are fast for Capela but he's been great on D and just has to slow down a tick on O .

    Get Capela and Anderson out of the damn game. Both have been completely useless this series.

    The bad news is that Clint and Ryan are sucking again (not that Harden is playing much better), the good news is that Westbrook is already playing in hero mode

    Cannot believe how much of a scrub Capela has become. What a disappointment. His blown layup led to Beverley's 2nd foul. He's letting us down and shame on D'Antoni for not holding him accountable.

    Crap ass strategy. It will backfire at some point. Remember when we used to have 40 point opening quarters. Pretty freaking long ago.

    Westbrook is always running, our MVP always walking or just standing at the half court, I know he's tired but at least move at little

    Mike just needs to stop with that starting lineup, there's more than enough data out there to show that it sucks against OKC....can't score or get stops

    just stop using it, please

    If Anderson, Ariza and Beverly cannot get open to start the game, then we need to start either EG or Lou. We need a second creator out there to start the game. Otherwise, OKC can zone in on Harden and just use energy to close out our shooters who are too scared to shoot. Agree?

    Don't believe in curses but since he did that cookin move, things have been shaky. Can't explain it.

    You guys do realize that the shots Ryan Anderson is bricking are not even covered right?

    He was wide open on those bricks.

    I think more than being weak, he just looks scared af and rushing. He just needs to focus on CATCHING the ball, then do whatever comes next.

    Clint + Ryno + Ariza.

    The trash brothers. Get these losers off the team.
