Nobody saw them as a playoff "contendah" this past summer.
Congratulations to Donovan Mitc . Looks to be much better than Hayward was for them...

Wesbrook and OKC choking in the 4th; would've brought Game 7 back to OKC, too.
82 ing shots in 2 games from one player, who's SUPPOSED to get other teammates involved.
Happy for the jazz tbh
The double edged sword of ball hogging superstars.
1. He passes relentlessly and loses a game
2. He shoots relentlessly and wins a game
Player fans will say "see, when Russ shoots more often they win more often" because there's no examples of the team being built and coached for ball movement and better looks. Instead, they are "play through Russ" focused, and that only shifts when Russ gets too much flak about shooting too much, at which time he (or many ball hogging superstars) will have a game of sarcastically over passing to "prove" to media and fans that the team cannot get it done.. "see, I don't have anyone else".
Dude gets other scorers and his system is so rigid that he cannot fit them in, and they see it, and they regress to just looking for the next stop on their journey. Suddenly KD is understood by them.
Correction. Utah nearly choked the game away in the 4th.
OKC lost the game with a bad third quarter when they fell behind for good.
No one's saying that, tbh.
I didn't say anyone was. I said it happens. I saw Tim Legler and whothe ever on ESPN or whatever saying Westbrook had to take the game on his shoulders, because his teammates weren't getting it done. Had he continued to trust them, he would have still lost most likely, because you cannot have a 1 game trust experiment in the playoffs.
They get into a hole because they are accustomed to Russ ball. It's like Kobe was during the Phoenix series when he quit "see, Kobe passes and they lose".
