Game 5: Western Conference Finals- Thunder @ Spurs

[ElNono]

I would love to have you face to face sometime.

you can be face to face with his wife tho, she's in brazil, IIRC...

Now the bull halftime show of watching OKC highlights.

[RD2191]

More than anything else, that quarter should tell them there's no need to play scared against OKC. They can score on them, Ibaka or not.

[weebo]

they need to bring it 2x as hard the last 2 qts

[texmich]

was that chimp talking to our bench after that dunk, pos mother er, ugly ass

[Amuseddaysleeper]

I will take that first half. Still, even a 15 point lead won't be safe against these guys

[tim_duncan_fan]

If Tim keeps contributing rather than punking out, we should have a chance.

[Crookshanks]

Would it be too much to ask for Westbrook to sprain his ankle early in the 3rd quarter? I don't mean a little sprain - I mean one of those "damn, that was ugly" kind of sprains - the kind where the replay makes you feel sick to your stomach.

[DPG21920]

when we're hitting 3s we look great, tbh... gotta keep that going

Not just that - points in the paint were huge. Also, without looking, you would never guess Durant has more points (16) than Westbrook (15).

[100%duncan]

I hate Westbrook more than almost any other player in the nba. Having said that, when he's playing at the top of his game, he's top 5 in the nba. That guy is a beast

But when the real top 5 in the nba is playing at the top of their games, a prime westbrook wouldn't belong there.

[jARS mEsH sEt]

Shaq lumping Manu in with "the others"

[SpurPadre]

This has got to be one of the most dangerous 10 point leads at the half I've ever seen. We're playing at a high level but can't let up more than a minute the rest of the way.

[tim_duncan_fan]

Also, you s with your "athletic black people are monkeys" bull .

[Captivus]

when we're hitting 3s we look great, tbh... gotta keep that going

Thats our only hope.

I won't feel sick though.....

Ibaka isn't doing . That's why the Spurs are winning.

[DAF86]

You have to attack with force. Nice to hear that from Pop, in earlier games he was telling guys to kick it outside.

[timtonymanu]

0 minutes for Marco is a good move by Pop. Keep it up.

[Horry Hipcheck]

The Bonner experiment shows that the Spurs do the most damage with Diaw, Manu, Parker, Kawhi, and Green, with help from Mills (when he's on). Duncan and Splitter are borderline useless. No Belinelli so far tonight, either.

[Harry Callahan]

That team in OK has a collection of ugly ass es.

[RD2191]

Also, you s with your "athletic black people are monkeys" bull .

Watch your mouth, son.

[DPG21920]

Spurs, Tim in particular, did a much better job on the glass which is massive. Gave up the offensive rebound for Durant 3, but other than that, rebounding key.

Spurs are getting very good looks, but are shooting insanely hot. OKC still shot 51%, so that has to get better. But if the Spurs can keep the FTA close (only one less than OKC) and out rebound, they should be in the game. OKC hit some tough ones and got some great looks too. Hopefully they miss a few of the tough ones and Spurs make them take more of those.

[soxxx]

Since that fan ran on the court everything changed in okcs offense.

[Horse]

Gotta have a good 3rd
