    Love the way OKC played the warriors this year, we're not the team giving up 4th quarter leads anymore. We led all 3 games in the 4th quarter vs GS. If we can tame the HEROICS OF STEPH CURRY, i love our chances.

    Just keep Ibaka and Singler off the floor as much as possible. That's looking like our key to success right now.

    Russ - Waiters - KD - Kanter - Adams . That's been our version of the warriors "death line up". Adams and Kanter will be a FORCE for the next few years.. Ibaka becoming expendable more and more each game... i'm sure we can get some value in return for him too.

    He's 10x better then Parker. Parker only had 27 3s this season. Dude played 72 games and put out his worst scoring output since his rookie year.

    That's a fact. Spurs big 3 is washed and should all walk away together.. but i said re-tool because now they have 2 young stars to lean on.. just need pieces around them.

    Kinda wonder if Pop will hang it up whenever Timmy does.

    I agree, they definitely need to be re-tooled. They need a starting PG and a defensive-minded C in my opinion. Another swing guard would help as well. Pop is fine I think, though soon they need to start thinking about the heir apparent.

    I kinda wondered that myself a couple of years ago. Now? Not a fucking chance man. He's setting up the next team, and he's having fun doing it.

    Too predictable after the KD shot that Curry was just going to go hit a halftime buzzer 3. Smh..

    Westbrook 7/21 FG, Durant 10/28 FG, and OKC wins anyway. Go figure.

    As soon as Westbrook got it together OKC went on to win. KD finally hit his shot in the end

    @JetLifeLo HELL YEAH MAN!

    I can't believe they pulled it off.

    I'm still very skeptical about the series in general, but this was a great game tonight, and even if OKC loses the series, I'll fondly remember tonight.

    OKC presents as a very interesting matchup for Golden State.

    Last night, KD was horrible and Westbrook had the worst first half of basketball anyone could imagine, yet still, with all that bad shooting, they still went into Golden State and beat the Warriors. That's impressive as hell.

    OKC needs to stay big. They need to continue to play Adams and Kanter. Golden State is too small for them and OKC will dominate the boards. If OKC can limit their turnovers and continue to dominate the boards, they will win this series. In the second half they woke up and proved that.

    And Westbrook on Curry is fun as hell to watch. Watching Curry get frustrated is hilarious lol

    Yessir still work to do and nobody on the team celebrated win 1. Told guys on here yesterday.. that's now 4 times we've outplayed these guys this year.. but the difference is we know how to finish games out now.

    praying for 3 more. If we win game 2...wow.

    Bothers me that the warriors are using the "we took quick and bad shots" excuse ....as if they don't always take quick and bad shots!! We just got around the picks and got a hand up on mostly every shot.We also forced them into a lot of 2nd half turnovers.

    They played a clip of Curry's postgame interview on the radio. yikes. stuff like needing to rise above adversity, show their resiliency, etc. Sounds like a team down 3-0 not just down 1 game. If I was a Warriors fan I wouldnt like hearing that. But I hate the Warriors so I hope they fall apart. The Thunder are playing with house money and Curry's talkin about about they need to rise above or whatever. Thats the ideal situation for the Thunder and I dont much like them either but I hope they take advantage.

    Adams was like a gorilla on the boards last night.

    (I can say that because he's white.)

    I was texting a buddy last night about Steph's body language down the stretch. Obviously he's not like Lebron or Westbrook with his intensity, but during timeouts in the last minute he looked downright sedated, wandering back to the bench, head in the clouds. Very odd, considering the circumstances. Like he's waiting for someone else to do something.
