Why all the blowouts?

Yes I know there's a game thread but I'm not keeping up with it all or going back and reading it.

My question is how both teams look so out matched when they're on the road and then look completely dominant when playing in their home building. I get home court advantage but a 40 point difference is a bit ridiculous.

Is it effort or what?

So the Thunder are that much better than the Spurs when playing with passion? Or do the Spurs have no heart when on the road?

The Thunder thrive off their crowd at home, I guess.

Watching them play games like this on the road, where they just jack up terrible shots all game is completely terrible basketball. It looks like they don't even want to be there.

The Spurs are really, really good

Durant and Westbrook are really, really good

Unstoppable force, immovable object, home-court advantage

It's never a fender-bender when two trains collide

Thunder are a jumpshooting team. A damn good one. If they're on, there's no keeping up with them.

The Spurs are an offensive machine. When they're generating the looks they want there's no keeping up with them.

They have faced 2 elimination games so far this postseason (against a damn strong Memphis team) and won both. So that's dumb.

Thunder have actually played better on the road than at home in this postseason until this series. Talking out of your arse again I see.

Well even when the Spurs were blown out, they at least showed some guts in the 4th with their bench guys. If this series were on a neutral court, I'd take the Spurs in 5 or 6, but OKC's arena is a tough place to play. I love Serge Ibaka, but I said I don't think he would have made much difference in games 1 or 2 and tonight makes that seem on the mark.
