Thunder at Rockets - Game 4 sponsered by Bush League Tactics

[StrengthAndHonor]

Durant proving everyone wrong, myself included. Damn. :wow

[hater]

durant growing a big dick this series

[chapnis]

Still, Thunder can barely beat the Rockets.

[D-Wade]

Missing the game-- How does Harden have 10 TOs??

[Clipper Nation]

This is why we all believe that Durant could be the next MJ.

Nobody believes that outside of your meth-addled excuse for a state, B...

[100%duncan]

Oh shit... This is why we all believe that Durant could be the next MJ. Dude just took a shit all over the entire Houston team.

Says who tbh?

[DPG21920]

Harden with such bad decisions. Wow.

[LakerHater]

WTF Harden!?!?!

[crc21209]

Why does Harden settle for weak 3's?

[BatManu20]

Damn Harden

[lefty]

Harden :lol

[hyhy]

switch defenders on durant alr.. parsons with 5 fouls not even touching durant anymore

[hater]

:lol Taliban :lol

[ElNono]

goddamn Harden... choke as nigga... where were those shots in last season's WCF?

[Killakobe81]

Lol harden the best SG in the NBA

[chapnis]

Rockets offense is terrible

[midnightpulp]

Wtf McHale?

Parsons is getting anything he wants this game, and you close the game running ISOs for James Harden who has been terrible all game?

[irishock]

:lol Harden straight up airballed that shit.

[spurraider21]

There are some fags that blame the refs for everything that goes wrong every game, even if the officiating is right down the middle

[KaiRMD1]

rockets choking bad

[LakerHater]

OKC ball!

[td4mvp2k]

:lol MJ

:lmao

[crc21209]

Nobody believes that outside of your meth-addled excuse for a state, B...

:lol

[chapnis]

Harden clearly fouled on the replay but they can't rule on they lol

[DPG21920]

I am so disgusted with Harden today. He's had such a great year and even played well enough the first few games, but damn what a loser performance today.

[irishock]

:lol Bin Laden crying

[lefty]

Meth ball

[Budkin]

WTF haha Harden holds ball... takes horrible shot... again.

[100%duncan]

Still, Thunder can barely beat the Rockets.

Come on Okc would blow out Lakers too don't be a homer ...

[crc21209]

I sense some Durant FT's coming up or a basket And-1 for him...

[Richie]

Houston late game execution is just horrible.

[Trainwreck2100]

goddamn Harden... choke as nigga... where were those shots in last season's WCF?

he had ref backup last season, that insurance policy made for no pressure situations

[Venti Quattro]

Parsons is 11/21 and Harden is 4/11 in this game. Of course you give it to Harden. Never understood coaches giving the ball to their superstar even though they're ice cold.

[Darius McCrary]

Harden is such a total failure

[racm]

Wtf McHale?

Parsons is getting anything he wants this game, and you close the game running ISOs for James Harden who has been terrible all game?

Superstar hero ball is the low risk, low reward pet play of black coaches, tbh...

[Bill_Brasky]

Carltonbrick.gif

[Monster1776]

lol comparing that sitck to MJ

Dude just hit a clutch 3 in Houston's face and then dunked on 4 of their guys on the next possession; tell me of any other player that do something that cold?

And note I said he has the potential to. Dude isn't consistent enough to be called anywhere near there, but he has crazy flashes like that which shows its possible; dude is like 23 and he's already a stone cold killer.

[hater]

Like I said HOuston better off with Black Beard on the sidelines

[LakerHater]

WOOOOW!!!

[HI-FI]

crofl

I bet OKC fans just snorted a big rail from det call

[Robz4000]

Holy shit :wow

[KaiRMD1]

See what happens when you step in front of Durant, fuckin' idiots.

Let's see Harden fuck this up

[td4mvp2k]

Durant sux :lol

[DPG21920]

Wow, iffy call.

[midnightpulp]

GIVE IT PARSONS

[crc21209]

A foul on Durant!?!?!? I don't believe my eyes!

Stern must have made the call to let Rockets win for their valiant effort.

[LakerHater]

Fuckin chunkin Harden!

[irishock]

[chapnis]

Give the ball to Parsons lol

[midnightpulp]

McHale and these ISOs :lmao

[Budkin]

HARDEN SERIOUSLY???? :lmao

[Robz4000]

McHale and Harden lost this game for Houston tbh

[hyhy]

WOAH just have to make this LAST shot

[Trainwreck2100]

lol Harden not making a move till 6 seconds left on the shot clock

[ElNono]

smh Harden

[DPG21920]

That was a good look by Harden,but dude just choking. He wanted no part of this game today and has shrunk 3 straight possessions.

[BatManu20]

Harden having a terrible quarter tbh

[Bill_Brasky]

Durant 3 incoming

[Dex]

Harden would've hit every one of those 4th quarter shots against the Spurs last year.

Fuck that beardy bastard.

[Technique]

What a nice iso fade away long 2 by Harden.

Dude is trash

[lefty]

So the Rockets fired Rick Adelman

[Killakobe81]

Derek Fisher 3 if Durant doesnt hero ball this ....for the win book it.

[crc21209]

Dude just hit a clutch 3 in Houston's face and then dunked on 4 of their guys on the next possession; tell me of any other player that do something that cold?

[Budkin]

Last 3 Rockets plays have been Harden stand there and hold the ball... not drive... shoot with man in face. McHale HAS to go.

[Splits]

Fisher for the kill

[BatManu20]

Durant with the dagger 3 right here tbh

[DAF86]

Is Harden trying to lose this game? WTF? He almost fouled Durant on that play and this is the third weak ass step back that he tries instead of taking it to the hole.

[Reck]

Harden having a terrible quarter tbh

Quarter? lol

That bearded fuck is in finals mode tonight.

[spurraider21]

There are some fags that blame the refs for everything that goes wrong every game, even if the officiating is right down the middle

[Trainwreck2100]

overtime then all the rockets foul out

[hater]

Derek Fisher 3 if Durant doesnt hero ball this ....for the win book it.

[crc21209]

Settling for jumpers is Houston's specialty....idiots.

[Budkin]

Would love a Fish 3 here.

How is this better stuff than a black coach would draw up

[TVI]

Dude just hit a clutch 3 in Houston's face and then dunked on 4 of their guys on the next possession; tell me of any other player that do something that cold? LeBron says "hi."

Tie it up. I want OT to see Harden fail even more.

LeBron doesn't have much more room to grow; he's already pretty complete. Durant still has ton of room to grow into his game; we'll see in a few years.

Houston's late-game offense is painful to watch. Their last three plays were Harden isos which resulted in contested jump-shots which were not even close to going in. Really, Houston? Nice coaching... Makes me thankful that we have the Popinator.

MJ wouldn't have picked up his dribble.

why does harden hold the ball for 10 seconds only to force up a bad jumper that mostly misses? does mchale show him this dumb bs when they watch film?

Pretty shitty end to the game tbh. Not a good look for OKC with or without Westbrook to let these shitty rockets win 1.

[Fergie The Florists]

He did. It was the give the ball to Durant play. Durant screwed up the play by passing it.

What the fuck was up with that?? Durant didn't even look like he wanted to attack, just picked up his f'n dribble.

[DAF86]

Asik with a great defensive play, tbh.

[Monster1776]

:lol

Why? Because he couldn't finish a last second tip in against a horrible team that can barely beat us without our starting PG? Right. We'll talk if Houston wins the next 3 games, for now go to bed child, let the adults talk.

Ibaka look like he just found out Congo is a country in Africa

[hater]

Ibaka aint bout this life after all

[Monster1776]

Asik with a great defensive play, tbh.

He certainly had his hands straight up, but I don't know how I feel about all that body contact. Would be nice if refs would actually make calls consistently through the season like that instead of allowing any penetration players free passage to the basket for the sake of ratings.

True, forgot it is folly to try and have a meaningful discussion about the game. I except the narrow sighted jabs from fans of the actual team but not from idiots that have no part in the series. Oh well. Guess I can dream or just go to ESPN and spam posts.

[crc21209]

Glad Houston got a win. :tu

Just like the last two games they tried their best to choke away the lead with those ridiculously awful Harden ISOs; glad they held on and will make OKC continue working to advance. FOKC

Just like the last two games they tried their best to choke away the lead with those ridiculously awful Harden ISOs; glad they held on and will make OKC continue working to advance. FOKC

If I had the chance to make a shot like that in the playoff and not put enough power behind it to go in I'd be pretty emotionally and physically drained as well.

u can't be serious. did u not see all of those flops the thunder were being rewarded for? consistent? hahaha

[xellos88330]

What the fuck was up with that?? Durant didn't even look like he wanted to attack, just picked up his f'n dribble.

That is because Brooks didn't really even draw up the play. He wanted Durant to bail him out. Durant thought he had enough space to take the shot, but turns out he had a man right in his grill after he picked up the dribble. He had no choice but to pass out of the "play". This caught Jackson by surprise because Durant was supposed to be able to take a shot, and it forced Jackson into panic mode.

Brooks is an overrated coach in my book. He is just lucky to have Presti picking extremely talented players to cover up his coaching shortcomings. Give Pop the Thunder roster and you would have a completely different story. Brooks is the king of iso. Give this guy the ball and be ready in case he has to pass it. What a groundbreaking philosophy. Spoelstra at least seems to have some talent in drawing up plays. Hence why Miami beat the Thunder last year.

[Monster1776]

:lmao Thunderefs

Well if the Grizz somehow fuck up their series it looks like we'll have to wait until the playoff finals to meet a real team.

Well if the Grizz somehow fuck up their series it looks like we'll have to wait until the playoff finals to meet a real team.

u can't be serious. did u not see all of those flops the thunder were being rewarded for? consistent? hahaha

Exactly what point are you trying to make? I said it would be nice if refs consistently made that call and didn't award an attacker freethrows because he is met with some body in the air; not that he should of gone to the line.

[ElNono]

El's pimp hand is way strong tonight
A pimp named El Nono ...

nigga been singing the Ibaka praises since the series began... tonight he eats the ethiopian shit sandwich...

sup Killa, BTW...

Monster taking everything too seriously, per par.

That said, I like Monster. Always an entertaining read and speaks from the heart.

Go to sleep you dirt bowl, bible thumping, arm pit loving, fucking band wagon fan. See you in a couple rounds...:)

That is because Brooks didn't really even draw up the play. He wanted Durant to bail him out. Durant thought he had enough space to take the shot, but turns out he had a man right in his grill after he picked up the dribble. He had no choice but to pass out of the "play". This caught Jackson by surprise because Durant was supposed to be able to take a shot, and it forced Jackson into panic mode.

Brooks is an overrated coach in my book. He is just lucky to have Presti picking extremely talented players to cover up his coaching shortcomings. Give Pop the Thunder roster and you would have a completely different story. Brooks is the king of iso. Give this guy the ball and be ready in case he has to pass it. What a groundbreaking philosophy. Spoelstra at least seems to have some talent in drawing up plays. Hence why Miami beat the Thunder last year.

Scott Brooks is like a black coach... he thinks that "off-ball movement" is something women do when they're with a man...

You gotta give him credit... he sticks around.... thunderup... not so much

[DAF86]

He certainly had his hands straight up, but I don't know how I feel about all that body contact. Would be nice if refs would actually make calls consistently through the season like that instead of allowing any penetration players free passage to the basket for the sake of ratings.

He clearly kept his verticality, that is never called. We non OKC fans are used to that not being called, tbh.

[Monster1776]

:lmao wow... you're going to be crying for a foul??? OKC fan???

:lmao:lmao:lmao:lmao:lmao:lmao:lmao:lmao:lmao:lmao :lmao:lmao:lmao:lmao:lmao:lmao:lmao

Did I say it should of been a foul? No, obviously I'm fine with it or else I would be bitching like you all have all night. All I said was that it's not a call they consistently make through the NBA season but should. I know you're not one of the illiterate fucks on here because you only quoted a piece of that post that's out of context.

[Clipper Nation]

Yep.... Thunderfaggot on the other hand did his usual quick "congrats" post before completely vanishing per par.... he won't be back for a while unless the Clippers lose :lol

[Splits]

I wonder if NBATV will interview Abaka's witchdoctor, see what type of alter he should use for the goat sacrifice on the flight home. Do the Congolese drink the blood or use it as face paint?

[ElNono]

What does this mean, then?

How do you really feel about all that body contact? :lol

Dayum Chuck just told Kenny that if he hadn't been played with the great players on the Rockets he would have been cut. :wow Kenny did not take kindly to it.

Ibaka look like he just found out Congo is a country in Africa

Bah, I love basketball, and it was too close of a game for me to go to sleep, I'd prefer to talk about basketball even if I have to take some knocks about how our team is young and makes rather stupid Harden level mistakes.

I'm with you... if you like basketball, you watch the games

Dude, your team is stacked and at this point should be struggling like this, even with their Alpha out.

Best in the West. Best point differential. Toys with teams at home.

Ibaka was granted citizenship in 2011 because he grew up as a teenager in Spain and they were tired of having Gasol being such a soft pussy on their basketball team. Plus I don't believe The Republic of Congo has a basketball team so it was in his best interests as well.

You underestimate how much a team can be hamstrung when they lose their starting point guard and they don't have a seasoned backup to take his place. The entire offense falls apart before it can even get started and get the ball into Durant's hand. Part of the problem is that Reggie is young and just doens't have the experience, the other is that we don't have someone to take over like Harden. Just a bad situation all around.

Also, as much as Harden crumbles when the opposing team gets its defense dedicated to stopping him, he's the best creator among the 3, tbh... When KD passes the ball in crunch time it's a bad sign...

HAHA TNT crew seems a little salty tonight. Charles talking shit to the boys in the back.

[TVI]

[Monster1776]

Go to sleep you dirt bowl, bible thumping, arm pit loving, fucking band wagon fan. See you in a couple rounds...:)

We'll see. Being that it's only 10 at night it's a bit early for my bed time, I'd say the same for you but I can imagine how hard it is to sleep in a shit hole with 20 other siblings and extended family with no AC because your alcoholic step dad can't find a job outside of home depot.

[100%duncan]

:lmao Thunderefs
:lmao Blowing easy layups
:lmao Just wait until they play a real team

Your team better nut up and take care of them Grizz tbh. You can beat this OKC team imho, CP3 will toast those p:lols

LOL! You do realize that's why we don't build our team around starters whose average age is about 35 and consistently get injured at the end of the year so we don't have to bitch about not winning, right?

Hope so.... not convinced they can pull this one out in spite of Vinny, which is how it will have to be, seeing as how we all know he's not going to bench Chauncey or make any adjustments, tbh...

[Monster1776]

:lmao Next MJ :lmao

I realize foresight is a tad bit rare in these here parts but we'll see in a couple years or not if it turns out to be true.

Sup El congrats ...
If wade is less than a 100% and u guys make it to WCF against OKc your chances look good. Just keep in mind yall beat a dog shit Laker team. No excuses but we just aren't any good ...
But I would lay someoney on yall as a long shot best coach in the field best big and with all the injuries maybe best Pg Steph and Tony if healthy would be a fun.matchup.

If CP3 can't take advantage of our greenhorn guard than I'd be surprised and a bit disappointed.

Spurs are looking up, but we're only as good as the injuries we have or don't have... we're all hoping every game for no injuries and what not... I also said Memphis was not going to be an easy out, and so far it's happening... they would be a tough matchup for us if Clippers can't kick them out.

[Clipper Nation]

If CP3 can't take advantage of our greenhorn guard than I'd be surprised and a bit disappointed.

Talking about Memphis, tbh.... it took almost a full year, but Lionel Hollins finally figured out the Clippers' predictable offense and their defense has completely shut us down.... I'm like 90% sure Vinny will not make any adjustments of his own or start giving more minutes to productive players, so we're pretty much f:lolcked...

If the Clippers get their shit together and knock off Memphis in spite of Vinny, they should be able to beat a depleted OKC though....

Law school does an amazing job of teaching you to be clever and tacit about insulting people. Neither can I, either we win and I can merciless make fun of ya'll for failing to beat us a second straight year and if we lose I can point out how we backdoor sweeped yall last year and that the only reason we lost was because our starting pg whose top 5 in the league is out. Win win.
