I was agreeing with your sentiments. Maybe the emoticon was a bad move that could confuse.

Scott Brooks should be fired for the fact that he keeps putting Kendrick Perkins into the lineup.

Of course he does (or at least should).

If Kevin Ollie signs an extension with Uconn before they're eliminated, maybe. If Ollie doesn't, adios Mr. Brooks.

He shouldn't but he will.
Unless they get blown out next 2 games. Then it might happen but I doubt it.
You have to remember this is the same organization that has supported Kendrick Perkins repeatedly.

I think the loss of Ibaka will save Brooks for this year at least.

Is this the most lopsided WCF matchup ever?
Then OKC won 4 straight.

I don't think Brooks will get fired, but he should.
Coaches get fired way too easily these days in all sports, but Brooks just isn't a good coach and all you have to do is watch them play to figure it out.
The lack of offensive sets and creativity is pathetic. I can't think of a greater contrast in offensive design in a series than there is between these two teams.
The Spurs come down make about 5-6 passes set ball screens and numerous away from the ball, get some high low action, back door cuts, etc... The Thunder come down and run an "offense" of 0-2 passes and take a contested difficult shot.
Westbrook and Durant are good enough to score even in these putrid offensive sets, but just think what the Thunder could be if they actually ran something that resembles an offense.
What if they got the ball to Durant a little closer to the goal than 2 steps in from half court? What if they actually had some movement and screening away from the ball instead of 1-2 guys playing and the other 3-4 just being spectators? What if they were able to get Westbrook the ball when the defense already had to work instead of standing still as the ball is coming up the court? What if they actually ran Durant off of screens to get him open looks instead of contested ones?
Brooks is way too stubborn with his lack of adjustments and the ones he eventually makes seem desperate. ESPN ranked Brooks as the 11th best coach, but that seems very generous to me. He always seems like he is a few steps behind the other coach in a series and gets bailed out by Durant and Westbrook.
I am a Pelicans fan, but Durant and Westbrook deserve a better coach than this entering their prime.

Exactly. OKC ain't winning 4 straight though, imo.

When Harden walks through the door we will take that into consideration.
No Ibaka or harden = no chance
They could get a win though.

They've lost 9 whole games since the all-star break and 3 of those were in the first round of the playoffs.
That is freaking impressive They've got a bone to pick with Meeami.

Even if they don't win it all, I'm damn proud of how they bounced back from th way last year's Finals ended.
Lot sooner and better than yours truly, I admit

Of course not. Everyone will be shipped out of this organization before KD gets any of the blame for their woes.
