I just got back from the game and got my phone charged. I'll post a few pics tomorrow, but I was the guy wearing the Rox t-shirt right behind Jeremy Lin on the bench.

What a game. Harden was on fire! Thanks to my brother who works in big oil in OKC for the tickets!

I got a fist bump from Aaron Brooks after the game. Parsons never came close enough for me to offer.

Here's what I think we learned in this game last night, it takes 2 guys to put a game away if one of them isn't LBJ.

In the 4th, here's the shot attempts by OKC from 12:00 - 6:00:

Martin missed jumper
Liggins missed 3p
Martin missed 3p
Ibaka missed jumper
Durant missed 3p
Martin made 3p
Ibaka dunk
Durant missed jumper
Fisher missed 3p
Fisher ft 1/2

Common denominator: missed 3s. It was clear in the 3rd quarter that Durant was getting foul calls all quarter long that they should have continued driving to the basket but they didn't. While Durant could have continued that trend, they really needed someone to do that for them (Westbrook).

Clearly Fisher isn't a driver anymore, more like a spot up SG. I can't remember where Jackson got his 20 points on his 5 non-FTs and Sefalosha didn't attack the paint as all 3 of his makes were 3s. Perkins is not an offensive force and Ibaka is more than a dunker but he's not to Tim Duncan glass banking yet.

Double team Durant and keep him from driving to the lane and you'll beat the Thunder because they don't have anyone else who will get the bigs in foul trouble. Durant played almost 45 minutes last night and that's bound to take its toll.

I laughed even harder at Del3no's look as he walked by after.

I'm sure you guys have mentioned it but i'm too lazy to look back...

Harden's rolling the ball up the court into the 3 ball was ****ing outstanding. Along with Brooks' heady play to finish it off. To execute the 2 for 1 right there with time expiring as they did was brilliant...

Here's a few photos I got. None of them are that great because I left my good camera in the car and was using my phone. Also, in my haste to get to the game, I went without charging my phone and it died in the 1st quarter.






My sister-in-law, brother, and I.

I hope this post doesn't come off as bragging, I'm just so pumped after this game, and those seats were a once-in-a-lifetime experience for me. Can't wait for game 6. I'll be watching from my couch...

Sick seats. Mine were in the nosebleeds, but it was still an awesome game to watch. That place is incredibly loud. There had to be less than 100 Rockets fans there just looking around for jerseys or red in the stands. My gf was in a different section with friends and she said my buddy and I were the only 2 not wearing the blue t-shirts in our section.

Yeah, I'd say 100 Rockets fans sounds about right. There was a group of about 10 who were in seats about 12 rows above us. They walked down past our seats to exit the arena at the end of the game, and we were high-fiving each other as they walked by, and one of them was Les Alexander. That was pretty awesome too.

Watching the replay of last nights game.

Do the Thunder start Fisher? The only bright spots defensively for the Thunder seemed to be his ability to play decent man to man D and his ability to create charges. He's also stroking the 3 ball pretty well this series.

I just don't see what else the Thunder can do at this point because their perimeter shooting has been ice cold asides Durant.

Fisher didn't start. He was playing really tight D. It looked to me like he was really trying to bother the Rockets into shoving him off, at which point he would try to flop his way into a call.

I did a lot of yelling at Fisher in the 4th when he was spotted up for 3 in our corner.

In that gif above, you can see me and my brother over Garcia's right shoulder. He's in orange and stands up to cheer the call, and I'm in red being unimpressed.

They both obviously absorb the initial contact and then propel themselves down and backward. So ridiculous.

Synchronized flopping...well-executed, I might add.

* NOTE: I thought the charge was the proper call, but that is also some quality embellishment.

Makes you wonder if they run flopping drills.

I would bet that with fouls being such a part of the game, that's it something that's trained throughout the league, to a minor extent.
