don't think you can blame green, chimp is just insanely on tonight again
Of course, fluke from Chimp. I hate that guy...

Best thing of the night so far is the easy points in the paint. Everything else opens up
Why didnt pop put patty mills in more?
Anyone have a working box score for this game?
Westbrook with these long-ass-bomb 3s at the half -_-
Not even mad about WB. Spurs are looking like on D and still outscoring the Thunder, even with Westbrook in beast mode and a few big shots from Durant. Parker with the strong second quarter, Manu is looking young again. Just survive the third quarter storm and run away with it.
Thats pretty much why he makes those shots at the end of the quarter because they are what you call no pressure shots. He knows he's playing with house money when taking those 3's.
our offense looks better... good 1st half... we'll see if Pop goes back to Bonner to start the 2nd
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
The ball movement returned and they were able to get into the lane and score and then suck in the defense and hit outside shots.. It's a thing of beauty when its working.
I can't imagine Pop bailing on the Bonner thing at half time, but he can't like the results of that starting line up. I'm sure he will stick with it at least to start the half, but hopefully he has a very short leash and/or guys play smarter defense and can prevent the drives that killed the Spurs.
Great first half, Spurs had a few tough breaks to end the half that led to 6 thunder points. They need to keep it up. Can't have another 3rd quarter collapse.
Yep. Can't lie, man. He's impressive af. As much as I dislike him. He's pretty good.
I agree, if he gets more mentally tough and makes less emotional plays he can be even scarier of a player.
Brilliant piece of coaching to keep a stretch 4 on the floor all the time, and put Kawhi on Westbrook. He's making some shots, but it's like the old days with Bowen on Kobe: he has to work so hard to get HIS that he isn't looking for anyone else, and that's good for us.
I would love to have you face to face sometime.
it pains me too, but I've come around to giving him his props this series. Dude is balling for real
all right. Yeah. That was a hard-close. Bonner's foul on Butler was an out-of-control soft-close. There's no question which one is better. I intend to make an off-season thread about it if I can get my computer working again.
when we're hitting 3s we look great, tbh... gotta keep that going
Start CoJo with Parker in the 3rd and get this to 20.
No amount of athleticism can keep up with it when it's running smoothly. The Spurs offense running on all eight cylinders wears anyone down eventually. It's their defense that allows teams like OKC to hang around.
Can't blame Green on that, this wasn't Mo Williams in Utah game winning 3 where Green didn't get up on him, that was the exact shot you want Westbrook to take to be honest, a complete chuck. Great make though, tip your hat.
You know he will but its probably better than Tiago out there
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.
