Fun game...just highlights ( if it still needed to be ) why things played out the way they did.

Well that was a total fail for OKC fans. They lost and Durant played well. Fuego cupcake chants not withstanding

Westbrook looks worse than Raja Bell trying to always trash talk KD while his team's down 20.

(Thunder down 20)

Westbrook: "I'M COMIN!! I'M COMIN!!"

Durant: "You're losing."

Westbrook really plays out of control. Can be a dominant player when he's on but just wrecks his team when he's off. Doesn't know when to stop.

Hate to see Goliath win this day, but OKC can suck it. They had a stacked team for almost a decade, now they look like 2005 Lakers.

Also, lol @ Golden State coming back from down 3-1 last year to deny OKC a place in the Finals, then taking their best player, then coming back and blowing them out with Durant scoring 34.

Games like this is why I don't really question why Durant chose to leave....all that trash talk from the Thunder and they were losing by 20+ points......
They can move the entire damn team back to Seattle for all I care....

Pace yourselves Thunder fans. Durant's got a long career of playing not in OKC left in the tank.


At this point if the Warriors can win multiple championships, people will probably remember him in a Warriors uniform rather than a Thunder uniform....it will be like Kareem all over again....

Its turning out like when LBJ went to Miami and went back to his hometown and destroyed them. Eventually they had come to accept that LBJ was their daddy and they screwed up bigtime.
In this case however time Durant won't be coming "home" since he doesn't have a childhood connection to OKC....it was only a place he was contracted to play at because the NBA moved to OKC after they abandoned the Seattle market.

Interesting to see if Popovich does his usual routine of hitting the air brakes just as Kawhi's beginning to heat up, or (less likely) instead allows Kawhi to utilize his surging game to post productive numbers tonight in a Spurs - Pacers match-up ... Kawhi's pretty consistently outplayed all other top SF in the game thus far this year. We might see PG13 get some in his own house tonight (but if Popovich elects to play Kawhi less than 30 minutes, it's unlikely) ...

Andrew Wiggins really gets up for the Cavaliers (for good reason, of course), but ugh ... finding himself at center stage in a highlight like the following one cannot be much fun, particularly since it has to remind him what might have been ...

That pass was absolutely filthy. No look, between the legs with the bounce part of the pass a good 10' away.

Here's a streamable link for anyone that doesn't want the Youtube ad.
