    1:39 Russell Westbrook lost ball turnover (Andre Iguodala steals)
    0:55 Russell Westbrook out of bounds lost ball turnover
    0:35 Russell Westbrook bad pass (Andre Iguodala steals)
    0:12 Russell Westbrook bad pass
    yep... I don't think it's chance that OKC lost a bunch of 4th quarter leads this season. Westbrook consistently makes bad decisions when it matters most. If it isn't a turnover, it's an ill-advised 3 point shot.

    They just went away from what was successful for them with horrid shooting. With 38 missed shots between them and tons of turnovers, along with a ridiculous Klay they were only a few points away at the end. They arent in bad shape tbh, I worry about the mental state after dropping that and then going into GS. I think they can make the adjustments. You realize 38 missed shots is at least 76 points they poetentially gave away? I think Curry is still hurt a bit and is slowed down. I dont think the Thunder game planned for Klay since he didnt shoot like this. I think thunder will make the adjustments needed, will be intresting to see the mental toughness of them in game 7. I think they can recover but it will be close.

    Watched the game. KD and WB were chucking HARD in the 4th to try and stay level with the GSW.

    Thats all you can do, you cant really go back for a higher percentage 2pt when they are breaking 3pt records.

    No team would have stood a chance against GSW today. And basically KD and WB knew it. I dont blame them for chucking. they needed god mode to match god mode.

    GSW was ridiculous.

    We wouldnt have beaten either team at all, especially when we go for long 2s. thats the new age game.
    I don't even know what to say. I don't think I should stoup that low.

    Pity they didn't choke against us in games 2 and 5... although in a strange way they almost did.

    I think this game was actually decided by NBA record 11 3s from Klay, and another 6 from Steph. They finally performed well when it mattered.
    Klay was hitting some unbelievable shots, you can't stop that. I am still pissed the Spurs blew those games at home too man, no reason they should have lost either of those but they did. I wish the Thunder would have choked then tbh.

    That was all heart. He was basically willing the ball into the basket. The Spurs could learn something from that. It seems they either win or lose easily. The ability to hang tough when things are not going well and still pull out the win requires heart. To be a champion you need to be able to win games like that.

    That was a game you look back on when you get the championship DVD and say that was a classic, all heart and that won the le basically right there indirectly. Spurs have done that a few times in their le run years, the last two years though after leading in the series or the key home game they fold and lose it (Start missing shots and TO's late). I miss that about the Spurs some times, know it's only been a few years since their le but man they the last two seasons have showed little heart in those come from behind or close games, it's frustrating to watch.

    Three on the Spurs have won multiple les and are champions but their time is nearly up and they can't do that stuff anymore like they did during their le runs unfortunately, it is up to Kawhi now and LMA to turn into that person and maybe a third wheel as well being a shooter. Tim and Manu are past that stage and Tony appears to be too.
