Guitar do you know what the score count was with our bench against their starters? Along with FT difference?

Yeah, that was after my time, but I remember people in that area.
Growing up, I played a lot of pick up in New Orleans. Much different crowd than College Station.
Not much anymore with all of our Louisianimals. If we keep recruiting New Orleans well.
If the Spurs come out with this same energy again in game 5 the series is over. It's amazing that the addition of 1 person caused a complete 180 in terms of how the games played out. Hopefully they can win Thursday and then finally get a win in OKC. Miami will already be waiting.
Westbrook gets fouled a lot.

LOL at Thunder..they will prob win this series but the Spurs have had 3rd and 4th teamers since midway thru the third and OKC has starters in to the end and it is a 10 point game.
If they weren't getting bailed out underneath, Joseph and Baynes would have probably brought it within double digits.
Game 5 is basically the season. THe Spurs aren't winning a game in OKC.
Westbrook is clearly the best player on the floor at all times. It will be interesting to see who MIA puts on Westbrook next series.

You just lost

49-74 when Bonner entered for Leonard and Baynes entered for Duncan.
14 of the Spurs 22 FTs were taken after that point.
The starting 5+Ginobili had 8FTA.
Relax.
Your team still has home court.
When is the last time someone came back from 0-2 against you guys to win the series?

Please baby Jesus let Boris Diaw play the rest of the series like he did the second half tonight. Aggressive down low and driving the lane, used his body effectively and went right after Ibaka, made some great passes and really initiated the offense. If he keeps playing like that then it forces Ibaka to play a man rather than just protecting the paint.

Most athletic for sure. Best? Not even close.

Obvious troll is obvious.
He was the best player on the court tonight and it wasn't even close

Wow. You don't watch much basketball do you? If you're going to pick the best player for the Thunder at least say KD. Westbrook is literally one of the dumbest and most selfish players on the floor. He's lucky he gets bailed out with FTs as much as he does despite his awful shot selection.

Ibaka with 35 minutes, Durant with 41 and Westbrook with 45.
Everyone on the Spurs played at least 10 minutes. Only player with over 26 minutes was Diaw.

Best of 3 series with 2 at home. Spurs got this.
Ok, that last post was uncalled for.
Seriously, though. Spurs have this series in the bag.
What I've learned about Spurs fans is that having an awesome team to cheer for can be just as gut wrenching and tortuous as it is for the rest of us. Maybe even more so.
That you automatically projected something negative from it - well that speaks for itself.

Every starter should be forced to watch nothing but CoJo's dunk on Ibaka until Game 5. It took the 3rd strink PG to finally show some testicles and attack the apparent "Jesus of the paint."
One team needs that rest, one doesn't. Although I still thought they should've taken them out earlier.

I don't think you'll get any arguments from anyone on that.
Wish spurs would just knock Westbrook on his *ucking ass next time he drives to the basket
Thats great and all, but I'd rather Tim and Tony log 55 minutes each and win versus 3 minutes and lose.
I don't take much comfort in how they lost this game. The Spurs knew they needed to get a win in OKC and they came out and gave two uninspired performances, even if they probably should have still should have been a little closer sans Westbrook all-world treatment.
All this after knowing that's exactly what they did 2 years ago when it blew up in their faces.

Eh. Westbrook was stat stuffing tonight. 5 steals, 4 of which should have been fouls or turnovers (running out of bounds come to mind?)
Westbrook had some ridiculously athletic plays like his dunk and block. But his taunting would have been a technical against a team like the Heat that would have reacted and he had a ton of bad decisions and poor shot choices that would have cost the Thunder in a closer game.
Westbrook stuffed the stat box against the Spurs 12th man. Nothing to see here.
Durant's first half was much more impressive than Westbrook other than a few highlight plays. Just too many poor decisions that would be costly if he wasn't making them against Jeff Ayres and Matt Bonner.

Couldn't agree with you more. Pop needs to put Ayres in the game strictly to see how hard of a foul he can earn. If he's going to get the calls we better start earning those fouls.
Corey Joseph +11 tonight. Bonner +12.
Doesn't matter if you hammer Westbrick anyway. He's still getting the calls, he's still getting to the line, and the Spurs will still have to overcome a 20+ FTA disparity until the closing minute or two of the game when they even the numbers.

Exactly, and if OKC were to wind up playing Miami in the Finals, Westbrook will look just like his usual dumb self because he won't get bailed out.
Miami will stay in front of him and not let him get to the basket whenever he wants.

Sure, sure.
That highlight of the Westbrook dunk shouldve of easily been called a T. What a dumbass taunting after every play. I hope this fires up our guys and we do the same to him when we send them home. I know our guys are above that but man I wish we would.

Would be nice to see the Spurs start Diaw over Splitter and then switch everything on the pick and rolls unless Perkins is the one setting the pick. That would force Westbrook into a lot more decision making and in theory keep him further from the rim.
What we learned tonight:
Green, Splitter, and Bellinelli are playing like absolute *****es.
Need more Red Rocket!
Need to get our money's worth on the Westbrook fouls. It's gonna get called either way.
