Dude you know Im not some retard hater. I couldnt give a shite who wins but he's trying to get his shots instead of looking for anyone else. I seriously think KD went 6 possessions without a touch. I don't think he's THAT passive

durant was basically calling for the ball while westbrook was dribbling his arse off with the clock running down.

SFP is that you?

Can't blame Durant on that one, he clearly called for the ball.

1. harden sucks dog dick this series


He is actually playing reasonably well on offense this game.

2. durant is running away from the ball


Not this game.

Still, I don't know why people are bitching about Westbrook this game. He hasn't gone on any stretches where he dominates the ball too much.

Hmmmm, Miami shooting 55% to OKC's 37% and up only ten? Miami must be turning it over and/or free throws are one sided for OKC.

Why? Because when westbrook struggles he goes into I got to get going before anything mode. It's literally his only flaw

OKC is 17/18 at the line. They have taken it to the hoop on nearly every position though.

But he gets sooooo wild in that mode...when he learns to breath and slow down in those moments hes going to be unfrickingbelivable.

Which is why I don't get the hate for Westbrook this game. Durant has taken 5 more shots than him. Isn't that what everyone wants?

i don't think he ever will

OKC needs him being that fiery guy. he's their clear leader

and yeah, he's going to take a lot of bad shots when he's doing that

well russ had 4 more shot attempts on fouls (8 FTs). durant has shot 1 FT all game

so it's like 13 FGA v. 14 FGA

westbrook does have 4 assists

Ahhh, just checked the whole stat line.

Still, the Heat are killing from 3, so when that drops off, this game will be in the Thunder's favor assuming the they stay aggressive and don't turn it over.
