Utah crowd could only do so much. WB has had terrible games. That's why OKC lost. If he played like this again in Utah, I don't think the crowd is going to help much.

Yeah, that Ingles guy needs to get outta here with his 2nd best 3% in the league, OKC never lost because of him...
and screw rubio's trip dub too- I heard the thunder created a cure for cancer, and everything they touch, turns to gold!

you say troll....I say truth teller....I think anyone that thinks PG-13 to the Lakers is a done deal is foolish


off course they would be foolish.

which player said, heck with fans and PG13, get me out of here asap? in middle of a series specially when they came back from down 25?

Lol they did it with Melo on the bench.

Jazz will get them at home. They gave gobert a lot of be fouls


Gobert and Favors out the majority of the game changed the rhythm of the entire game. Especially the phantom calls on Gobert.

Won’t happen at Utah.

I don't wanna hear anything about ”phantom calls.” Gobert got his fifth foul after getting an offensive rebound, electing not to pass it to Rubio (who was wide freaking open while Gobert was surrounded by three OKC players), and deciding that the best thing to do to get out of it was to freaking dribble around a smaller player and hook him. Then on another play he's wide open under the rim off of a high screen roll but kicks it out to Crowder for a baseline three That’s absolutely pathetic. I'm more disgusted with him over just those two plays than I was with any Laker all season, including Ennis.

Nothing happened to us, it happened to the Jazz. If OKC isn’t good enough, they will lose and he will come. If they are, then he wouldn’t have come anyway.

There is no way a team down 3-1 to the friggin Utah jazz is good enough to win the championship. OKC will lose to houston next round or GS in the round after that, they just aren’t very good.


They won the season series versus Houston and tied with GSW. Didn't PG13 say that if OKC made it to WCF that he might consider staying? So OKC just have to beat Houston.

They were down 3-1 to Utah because Westbrick was off. When he's on, OKC could beat any team.

I expected Utah to lose tonight but not by blowing a 25 point lead.

Must win game 6 now for a franchise that has had choking issues in the past...

I think when the Jazz were up that big a lot of us forgot the talent that the Thunder have, the truth is they’re not gonna roll over, now it’s up to the Jazz to close them out.

The Thunder still have problems on defense. Those don’t just suddenly disappear.

25 I believe. With 9 or so mins to go in 3rd. Was tied by end of 3rd. Crazy.

following game here is like watching people on a rollercoaster


One hour ago Donovan was a terrible coach who was going to lose his job and Mitchell was a top 40 player in the league. Westbrook was garbage and PG was already booking his flight.

Now everybody “RW is the MAN!!!”

Your guys’ opinions change like the direction of the wind.


I still hate Westbrook. This game changes nothing. Dude had a phenomenal game.


This just showed why he can be so frustrating to root for. With his talent he can put up incredible numbers. But I always felt he should have still been much better.

Lol I can’t really argue with that. I did wonder after game 4 how they would do without him. When he is out there he takes away shots from WB and George.

If RW makes shots, they're a better team. Simple as that. But he's Westbrick. Even in a good game, that's 39 shots to make 17. Utah is a young team. Hopefully they learn something. But we've seen this before where a team's confidence is completely yanked and they don't rebound.

It took Bill D 4.5 games to figure out to bench Melo and switch everything.

Lebron's block was goal-tending. NBA has to change stupid technicality stuff and just focus on getting calls right. Who cares if it wasn't called on the floor? There should be a challenge system, where you get to challenge a call or non-call. The next day transparent stuff is BS crap.
