vs Thunder - 2016 Playoffs - Western Final Series Thread

[TampaDude]

Klay single-handedly saved the Dubs season. What a fucking beast.

Script is written, so script must be followed.

There is no fucking way the PTB will allow the 73-9 Warriors to not win the title.

[Killakobe81]

lol at Curry's celebration


AlphaKlay carried his ass all night long

True but like Kd steph gets most of the defensive attention ...
Klay and riss are bothe great plyers but benefit from the dplayed on the #1s

[140]

Can't wait to see the postgame presser with Durant and Westbrook. :lol

This tbh :lol

What a meltdown :lmao

[~O~]

I don't know how many days of quotes shit talk I'm going to have to go through for you all talking shit...but I won't. I'm better than that.

That was a pitiful game. OKC had the most bs calls ever. They kept getting bailed out by offensive rebounds or terrible calls. When they settled for the patented Russell Westbrook pick and roll...drive and stop to get a foul call, I knew they had ran out of ideas. Westbrook completely lost focused instead being confident in his scoring ability. He instead reverted to being a player dependent on calls. This continuously dooms the Thunder which why I have no respect for them. They got the benefit of multiple plays that were clean tonight. They should not have scored the amount of points they did.

COACH NICK said it best. They were playing NOT TO LOSE. They weren't playing to score.

Yes...honestly I was holding my breath for the Warriors. They showed everyone why they were the best team in the NBA. They couldn't go out like that. They just couldn't...and they didn't. They refused. That's a champion. That's legit. They showed their quality and refused to die. The thunder have doomed themselves.

[Stalin]

WOW Durant 10-31 fg%, 1-8 3pt% :lmao
WOW Westchuck 10-27, 0-5 3pt%, 6 TOs :lmao

Mental Midgets choking for their team, even though role players did their job.

[spankadelphia]

Refs kept GSW from getting blown out late in the 2nd, otherwise the officiating was okay. Thunder have no one to blame but themselves. Donovan should have found some time for Durant and Westbrook on the bench in the 2nd half; they were completely out of gas the last 5 minutes.

[Thread]

They melted under the pressure; they're not ready

Nope. And they ain't even close to it.

[Stalin]

They're never going to be ready. They're a team with two low IQ "leaders". That's always going to hold the team back.


Very true.

No way GSW lose game 7. Bench will hit everything, crowd will be insane, and alphaKlay will drop 80.

Tremendous thriller game though the ending was not deserving.

I am not a fan of either team and I actually dislike GSW... but it was a tremendous game. I almost felt tachycardia :lol

[Vokun]

I feel bad for Roberson tbh. Dude has had one hell of a series both offensively and defensively. You can't waste a good Roberson offense series. They come once in a lifetime.

[~O~]

Honestly. Its truly not a surprise. I was holding my breath to see if they could break the barrier of that three point lead. It seemed like offensive rebounds, second chance points, fouls in favor of Durant or Westbrook, would keep them out of it. Then golden State would have a turnover..and whatever. They would still be down. Clearly, Bogut, Ezeli........were not ready to play. Barbosa was also not ready.

This was a reaffirming game.....to reinforce their confidence in who they are and what they've accomplished. I was waiting for OKC to blow the game open but they didn't. They just didn't..and it was too close in the end for them to overcome. They just could not finish it off because it was either finish it or have to deal with ORACLE.....and they had so much pressure on them in the end because it was a close game.

[DAF86]

Durant and Westbrook are going to play the entire second half it seems. I don't know if it's the smartest of decisions.

This was the game right here. I know it's easy to shit on Westbrook and Durant now but it's difficult to think straight when being so tired.

The roleplayers did their job tonight. Adams, Kanter and Roberson were cleaning up the trail of shit Durant and Westbrook were leaving and gave OKC a great chance to win tonight. The stars shit the bed tonight. Westbrook better not even look at attempting a three pointer in Game 7. I don't know what to say about Durant.

I actually don't think Game 7 will be a blowout. All the pressure is back on the Warriors now to close it out, and we saw how those mental faggots wilted under the spotlight earlier in the series. If MVKlay comes back to Earth and Durbeta stops being such a bitch, the Dubs might even still find a way to choke this shit :lol

Wow, so far this has been an epic choke job by the Thunder. They will probably get blown out in game 7 but they need to win that game to save face. The good news for the Cavs is the Warriors are beatable, now anything can happen in a game 7 so it still could be Cavs/Thunder but the Warriors look like they will get back to the Finals.

I hope so. :tu Respect to you in your current thin times. I do see bandwagoning but not just Lakers, many other franchises too.

If you still have the dog in you that you want your team to eventually kick the crap out of them, you won't like them at all bc you'd see all the stuff they get away with on the regular which combined with how good of a shooters they already have, you'd realize they don't need that help to begin with.

Personally, I don't care much for OKC either, but I wanted to see the win for variety. OKC is still mostly a young team with roleplayers that are still getting better and I think they matured a little bit this season as a team (though Durant and Russ are the same as ever apparently), but their roleplayers have gotten better. And I like variety just in general (since Spurs are done this season) and OKC was the wild card here. It's really boring when outcomes are very predictable. Just seeing LeBron in the finals again is already very boring.

[hitmanyr2k]

I wish I could be a reporter at the press conference for KD and Russ. I would probably get blacklisted for the questions I'd ask :lol

I'll always be a Laker and Bronco fan till the end. Going through torture decade after decade then getting 1 championship is much more fun for me than just dick riding the #1 team year after year.

One thing I have noticed as a So Cal resident is how many suddenly new Clipper fans there are. I suppose thats how things work now...I'll never be a Clipper fan...I just dont think you can be a true Yankee and Mets fan in my honest opinion...same logic with the Lakers and Clips. I have yet to see a Golden State jersey in So Cal but I see way more Clipper stuff now.

True, but both of these teams live and die on threes. Anything could happen. All it takes is a team going cold at the wrong time. As bad as they played tonight this could be a blessing for both Russ and KD. Tonight was their Game 7 and they fucked up but they get a do-over on Monday. At some point these guys have to get sick of losing and play angry and I think that's how both are going to play on Monday. They're going to be out for blood and try to atone for tonight. The only question is will their roleplayers follow? Adams will show up but everyone else is a question mark.

[djohn2oo8]

They were scared, timid and too wound up at HOME. That crowd in GS is gonna be crazy once GS goes on a run. Can Westbrook play under control when that happens?

[~O~]

The funny thing is...you guys actually believe the Warriors will look back and not learn shit from what just happened over the course of these games. This team was just down 3-1 and now tied in a critical game in a hostile territory.

Since the adversity of being down 2-1, Warriors wholeheartedly regretted losing game one from hubris being too cocky and having excessive pride. Now, you think the Cavaliers, who haven't faced anything near the adversity the Warriors have faced in the postseason, can beat them? What a fucking joke.

I felt the Cavaliers thought the Warriors were done which is why they went on to dominate the Raps knowing they could stand the against the thunder when it came to officiating.

The Warriors for the most part on two nights proved why they were legitimate. Why they were title contenders and willed themselves, despite the various disadvantages. They it all without shooting free throws but making tough shots all night down the stretch. No questionable calls..just scoring.


The Warriors did not shoot for last 6 minutes of the game until 8 seconds where the Thunder were forced to foul Klay. As you can see, The Warriors got the benefit of Westbrook.

A LOT of near misses for game 7s though, such as the Spurs-Mavs in 2003 when the Spurs put on that lucky 3 point barrage in the 4th coming back from 15+ down, 2006 the Mavs came back to win in Phoenix in Game 6, 2010 Artest's lucky putback, 2012 bad refs, 2014 Manu's shot.

Nah, Golden State is the most efficient basketball team in the NBA and J.R. Smith and efficiency don't go together. Also other than Curry and Thompson the Warriors are not a high volume 3 point shooting team.

To be honest... I don't know how OKC can recover from that choke job. They had Golden State by their necks and they still managed to lose this game

If the Warriors beat Cleveland in the Finals it'll be because they're a better team, not because they've been "tested." That's just talk radio/message board fodder. LeBron has been in and seen every situation you can see as a player and Kyrie and Love's lack of Finals experience would be an issue even had the Cavaliers needed seven games in every series. It'll come down to the matchups, it always does. Everything else is just hot air.

Sure, here, but, who else is going to publicly indict him? He'll be fine.

[baseline bum]

Do you think hes gone from OKC if he goes down like this?

No, he's staying.

[Spurs9]

Between kd and westbrook, they missed 38 shots :wow :wow You almost can't make that stuff up :lol

[AlexJones]

I absolutely still believe in the 'Curry is 70%' report. Kerr has been protesting too much as of late about him being "100%", pretty sure sign that he's actually hurt.

Kevin Durant played the worst game of his life when it mattered the most. I don't even hate or dislike Russ's effort, he did everything he could. This is all on KD. Every possible criticism coming his way for the rest of his career should be welcomed with open arms. Fucking beta pussy ass shit.

Spurs generally show up pretty damn well in Game 7. You're thinking of Game 6.

[LkrFan]

If the Warriors beat Cleveland in the Finals it'll be because they're a better team, not because they've been "tested." That's just talk radio/message board fodder. LeBron has been in and seen every situation you can see as a player and Kyrie and Love's lack of Finals experience would be an issue even had the Cavaliers needed seven games in every series. It'll come down to the matchups, it always does. Everything else is just hot air.
Cavs moonwalked to the Finals. Dubs/Thunder are battle tested. It will matter.

Yep, it's the highlite of my Memorial Day.

I'm also pulling for a Giants win, a Dodgers win, a D'Backs loss and a good find of a fine watermelon at the grocery store.

[spursistan]

defining game of KD career, tbh..he is either going to pull through tonight or him leaving the Thunder is question of when, not if..

Unless you're Duncan/Lebron, championship opportunities aren't dime a dozen.. Dude about to choke himself what what was shaping-up to be 2011 Mavs run for his team..

[AlexJones]

No scott foster tonight. Danny Crawford is pro-Warriors.

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Warriors by 50

[SpursDynasty]

The Thunder will win this one, there won't be any drama, no storylines, no big comebacks, etc. The Thunder were the favorites going into the series. They'll just go out, beat a team they're supposed to beat, and get ready for the Finals.

[InRareForm]

[TD 21]

All the drama was sucked out of this series. Once the Thunder got it 3-1, it was always going to come down to game 6.

It's not quite the Finals, but we've seen the same game play out repeatedly in this scenario, from game 7 in '94, '05, '10 and '13 (all series that the lower seed controlled much of only to lose): low scoring, close game throughout, neither team able to gain much separation, road team controls a good amount, home team, with the best player in the league, inevitably begins to seize control sometime around late 3rd and outlasts road team.

Spurs haven' twon of one those series since that Pistons Finals..Seems like we have been on the wrong side of the equation ever since..our 4 last series losses came from 2-1/3-2 leads.

[TD 21]

Spurs haven't one won of those series since that Pistons Finals..Seems like we have been on the wrong side of the equation ever since..our 4 last series losses came from 2-1/3-2 leads.

It's damn near impossible to beat elite teams when you not only don't have the best player in the series, but don't have a player of that magnitude period. It took the '14 team literally playing the best I've ever seen any team, in any sport play, to overcome that.

It's admittedly an overly simplistic explanation, but boiled down, all of the other Spurs teams from this era got out starred by top five players.

I havent been this excited about a non Spurs game in a long time

They're going to get their money's worth on that Draymond Beats commercial tonight in case GS goes down :lol

[da_suns_fan]

They just showed Bill Walton...quick story:

My brother in law played football for U of A when Luke Walton was there. Said he got on an elevator once and Luke and Bill were inside. Luke was in tears as his dad was giving him an earful about how awful he played. Bro said it was most awkward situation he's ever been in.

[ffadicted]

Here we go boys

[Keepin' it real]

Reggie!!!

[Reck]

Durant defering like a faggot already. That's not good.

[TheGoldStandard]

Bogut with the crazy moving screen.. lol.

[Big Dog]

So nervous here. I got big balls but I can't lie yall.

[hitmanyr2k]

Durant defering like a faggot already. That's not good.

I think he's making an effort to get everyone else involved so it's not just the Russ/KD show. They're going to need everyone engaged and in rhythm down the stretch if they're going to pull this game out.

[Keepin' it real]

Bogut with the crazy moving screen.. lol.


I yelled at the tv. That was so horrible.

[hitmanyr2k]

Looks like Roberson left his shot back in OKC. They have to keep going to him though.

[Reck]

Both teams wanting to put this game away already. So many 3s by both these teams.

[TheGoldStandard]

I yelled at the tv. That was so horrible.

It'll only get worse

[TheGoldStandard]

Ref waited to see if the ball went in.

[hitmanyr2k]

Westbrook's shots aren't even close. Didn't like the offensive foul either.

[Big Dog]

Not surprised at that call. We're in the Gay Area..

[Big Dog]

Warriors are missing shots but you can tell they are trying to find that crowd fueled run. Russ and KD are going to have to be sharp when it happens. I'm waiting for it here.

[baseline bum]

Good start for OKC, actually hitting some threes tonight.

[Spurs9]

They are looking good, glad to see them trying to assist so much and get everyone involved. Hopefully they keep this up all game.

[hitmanyr2k]

Ibaka has to pretend he's playing the Spurs tonight. He's the X factor.

Draymond bodied the shit out of Kanter lol.

Ibaka has to hit those and he faded on a fuckin 8 footer instead of trying to get the board. Idiot.

[Keepin' it real]

OKC role players not hitting shit

[TheGoldStandard]

Tons of contact under the basket and no calls..

[hitmanyr2k]

I was expecting Roberson to dribble the ball off his foot. I can't believe he made it all the way down the floor.

[Reck]

That was some ugly shit to end the quarter.

[ffadicted]

Horribly messy game so far lol

[hitmanyr2k]

Roberson and Waiters need to calm down

It's expected. They're role players on the road in a Game 7. The first quarter usually gets the jitters out.

[dg7md]

Good start for OKC tbh. Both teams are a little rattled, and Durant has been playing pretty well.

He needs to take over if OKC is to win this one.

[siraulo23]

Thunder actually played pretty well, but they should have a bigger lead. Dubs gonna blow em out in the 2nd quarter

[140]

Steph Cucky forcing it a bit too much so far

[spursreport]

This game is over. Warriors in the finals. You can just tell.

[hitmanyr2k]

The ball is moving for OKC but will it last?

[TheGoldStandard]

All those missed FTs will come back and haunt them.

[hitmanyr2k]

This game is over. Warriors in the finals. You can just tell.

If OKC keeps blowing free throws like Game 6 it'll be the case. They can't afford to leave points on the floor. They need as big a cushion as they can get for that eventual 2-3 minute choke they like to do in the 4th :lol

[140]

Dubs looking terrible with Cucky on the bench

[dg7md]

The Thunder have outplayed the Warriors in most quarters in this series... they just tend to choke real bad at the end of games.

[spursistan]

Encouraging start by OKC..need much bigger lead as can't see them holding on in a close game..

[Spurs 4 The Win]

This is expected. Remember when the Mavs played the Spurs in Game 7 after the Spurs were down 3-1 in that series. They took a huge lead on us before we slowly chipped away at it. If OKC can get a 15 point lead I give them a chance.

[TheGoldStandard]

Durant really needs to start taking control of this game or it's OVA.. Pretty soon dubs will start getting all those transition points etc.

[Spurs 4 The Win]

Encouraging start by OKC..need much bigger lead as can't see them holding on in a close game..

Bingo

[ViceCity86]

Thunder flat-out looks like the better team this series.If they blow this,it approaches 2006 Mavs level.This series reminds me of Spurs- Mavs series from 06.Mavs offense overwhelmed the Spurs.This series the Thunders defense is overwhelming their offense.

[TheGoldStandard]

If only Durant wasn't afraid of contact he could easily get to the line about 20 times this half.. He's cooking Green off dribble.

[Reck]

Kanter runs awkward as hell. Like he's running on planks or something.

[Spurs 4 The Win]

Thunder flat-out looks like the better team this series.If they blow this,it approaches 2006 Mavs level.This series reminds me of Spurs- Mavs series from 06.Mavs offense overwhelmed the Spurs.This series the Thunders defense is overwhelming their offense.

[hitmanyr2k]

I thought Klay would have come out loose after being the hero of Game 6 but he seems to have put more pressure on himself.

[ViceCity86]

Thunder should be up 20.Thompson blew his load in game 6.

This will just make the choking bigger.

[Spurs9]

Didnt understand why Kanter hasnt been played more in other games, he does alot of positive things on both ends. Wish Spurs had him tbh

[Reck]

You know what? Westbrook and the Thunder are getting away with 8 seconds in the backcourt. You always see the clock go all the way down to 17 seconds and he's still on the other side of the court with the ball.

[Clipper Nation]

Westbrook's not hitting shots, but he's having a great game so far

Still won't stop his haters (especially CryFaggot, the biggest Westbrook hater on Earth) from pointing to the stat sheet to deny that he's the true alpha of the team.

[Reck]

Meh, that was an awful 3 point shot by Westbrook but he got foul too. Fucking refs

[spursistan]

lol that was probably game turning play..

[Vokun]

Westbrick is THE dumbest MFer in the league. You have a chance to go up by 15.....and you fucking throw up yet another contested 3. That's a fucking 6 point turn dip shit.

[daslicer]

Klay seems like the type of player that plays great when there is nothing to lose. He was great in game 6 because the Warriors were not favored to win hence he probably didn't feel the pressure of the moment.

[siraulo23]

:lol westbrook

[D-Wade]

Westbrook still playing for calls... as if it didn't ruin his team last game

[TheGoldStandard]

Klay woke up. lol

AlphaKlay going to work. How many times is this guy going to have to save the Dubs season?

And Westdumbfuck single-handedly let the GSW get back in this. That dumbass 3 point shot is the turning point of this game.
