Anytime we have a chance to get it to single digits it's a turnover or a terrible jacked up 3.
Of course going to the basket hasn't been too fruitful either.

Spurs already beating the Hornets by 12 early in the 2nd quarter. Tonight we move to the #2 spot.
What's really disturbing about this is that the Thunder have attempted the same number of free-throws (26) as the Pacers: the "stat-heads" are going to point to this and claim that the game was properly officiated. What they don't realize is that the Thunder should have a decisive foul shot advantage.Originally Posted by Thunderstruck83
Durant is doing everything he can to keep the Thunder in it.
The Pacers have too many weapons.
Refs were bad, but we played like it was a pick up game at the Y...embarrassing really.
Stop the presses! Paul George whistled for a shooting foul against Westbrook.
I'd like to see us play better down the stretch but I don't want a team to peak three weeks before the playoffs start. The effort needs to be better, especially on defense, but I still feel that this team will be playing well come playoff time. The NBA is peaks and valleys (except Charlotte). Last week we were on top of the world and unbeatable. This week, back down to earth. A couple of losses keep the team humble and hungry. Doesn't make it any more fun to watch as fans, but it serves its purpose.
LOL here we come now that we'll just have to foul to extend the game.
If this game gets extended at the foul line, KD might get a new career high
Hey, what ya say we meet the team at the airport ??? Huh ????
I do not usually complain about officiating but it was horrid tonight...
It was, but until Brooks stops acting like a rookie coach it isn't going to change.
They beat us on the boards by 10 and on the season we were virtually tied in that. Russ was a respectable 2 of 5 from 3 pt range but really, he needs to cut way down on those attempts. Not only has his season average been poor every season, he is attempting almost 2 more per game this season and it means he is getting to the line less (down 1.5 attempts per game). Heck, his 2 pt FG% has gone up.

Welcome to the new NBA. Four quarters of dance competition (Thunder Girls vs. the Laker Girls!) interrupted by brief displays of basketball.
Finish this sentence, 'I never leave home without _________'. 'Mascara, Cell phone and Pepper Spray' says Thunder Girl Hayley.
Ibaka and Perkins were nonexistent on the glass tonight, combining for eight rebounds. Paul George had twice that amount despite starting at guard. Granted, neither played much in the second half after Brooks decided to go with the smaller lineup, but their performance was unacceptable.
Part of Westbrook's problem tonight was that he wasn't getting any foul calls from the officials when he got into the paint. There were at least four or five instances when he was hit while driving where no foul was called. Having said that, you're right to be concerned about the trend we've seen from him throughout the season, and I'm not sure if there's a way to fix it, aside from the coaching staff emphasizing better shot-selection, which they should be doing anyway.
