wow. OKC with 13 assists. No wonder Paul George looks sad and calling Cp3 and Harden to beg to come to the Rockets
Don't worry that glorious final shipment of Thunder Schadenfreude is coming this Saturday when the Rockets blow them out of the playoffs!
That would be a terrible mistake. I don't see how Thunder think they can win that series even without Curry. Durant-Thompson-Green is still better than Westbrook-George-Melo.
Yea, nothing would be more satisfying to knock OKC out of the 1st round if we get them with the 8th seed. Melo and Westbrook knocked out of the 1st round, PG leaves for Rockets. Melo stays for $30 million player option and OKC is struck with Iso Russ. What a great scenario. We must win on Saturday to knock them to the 8th seed. They will lose by 30 points against Rockets every game with their ISO BALL.
I don't know. Westbrook opens the ninth gate when he plays the Warriors. OKC lost this game, but Russ played the best he has in weeks. Even shot 3-7 from three. OKC has a chance against the Curry-less Warriors IMO. Every other matchup in the first round would be a quick out for OKC. Russ is going to scowl his way to 7 games if he is playing GSW.
OKC would lose in 6 at best to GS minus Curry...they ain’t got it Melo looks so washed, PG is too inconsistent, and Russ gon Russ
The thunder are a threat to no one. If they can’t beat a Steph less Warriors at full strength then they have no real shot
Utah won, Spurs should win too...if we beat OKC there's a good chance they end up 6th or 7th...in fact their game against Denver will be huge since Denver also won tonight and they're fighting with NOLA for the last place i think...
I would agree with you if it was a single elimination game. Crazy Westbrook has the upper hand there. However in a 7 game series, Warriors have nothing to fear. They still have two of the best shooters in the league playing for them and better defenders everywhere on the floor. The one advantage Thunder have is Adams, but Westbrook won't let the offense flow through him so that's a scratch. Series goes 5 games max with Westbrook going all out for one victory with like a 45 point triple double so he can show Durant who's OG.
Without Curry there is no way you can say with certainty that the Thunder can't beat them. I just don't see how that series would not be up in the air at that point 50/50.
Yep, i'm just curious cause someone in the OKC thread said they're losing the tiebreaker against Wolves, NOLA and Denver, if that's true, i'm not even sure beating them will help, cause they have still to play in Denver and that game will be basically a final for the Nuggets, i mean, if we beat OKC too there's actually a chance they end up 8th...or 9th...lol
3 funny things about tonight: The Blazers talk so big... and just lost to DALLAS. The Raptors lost to the Cavs.... AGAIN. ESPN's "Warriors kryptonite" just lost to the short-handed Warriors.
Warriors kryptonite might actualy miss the playoffs with a worse record than last season when Westbrook had no help...probably won't happen but man, that would be ****ing glorious.
If the spurs won tonight they probably would have overtaken portland for the 3rd seed. ****, what an epic choke job
