    I still don't think OKC is winning....Only down 6 at half. The game is still there for the taking.

    Of James' 3 turnovers , I thought two of them were the result of getting hacked with no call.

    Consider he should have about 5 more assists through a combination of teamates making shots and/or being able to hold on to the ball / fouls not called

    If they were playing the Spurs, or the Warriors I wouldn't be b****ing. But they are choking to a team they supposed to beat.

    We need someone like Troy or Dekker to keep grant and Roberson off the boards if they are crashing hard

    If he hits his chucks, he's unstoppable, that's alright. That's expected.

    We need to just hit our wide open 3s and get some rebounds and this will be put to bed.

    Reminder that Russ is a top 5 player in this league and sometimes can play like it.

    That being said if the Rockets adjust just a smidgen we should still win this game by 8 or so. Thunder are basically Game 1 1st and 2nd quarter Blazering right now.

    Also I just started watching the game guys I got home late sorry.

    BS refs, BS effort most of the time. Horrendous defense. Down 6.

    These guys on TNT are about to nutt on themselves talking about Westbrook.

    I have that feeling James comes out 2nd half punishing fools for misbehaving.

    We really would be much better with Dekker...and he's used to big pressure games and performing in them, he also bought a ton of energy.

    I'd play Troy Williams, I'd give it a try. I don't think Troy is that bad that he's going to lose you games if he plays.

    Anderson wasn't hitting his shots game 1, but was boxing out really well and rebounded fantastictly.

    Doing neither tonight. Got to wake up.
