    They played better but we played very sloppy in the second half. Too many mistakes especially on O.

    What really bothered me was we quit pushing the ball. Let them set their D. We started panicking and jacking up bad shots

    haha I knew CP3 would play all sorts of dirty this game, now Harden is injured.

    Even if OKC don't win this series, CP3 will make sure we don't win unscathed. We'll have multiple injuries heading in the LA series.

    Danuel House single handedly destroyed us this game. He gave up that last second 3. He let that scrub get that offensive rebound & was continuously getting lost in overtime

    I was thinking that earlier regarding McLemore. How the **** does that happen? Gordon and Harden deserve the brunt of blame for this loss.

    Yes, they did. They want a longer series.

    Doris, shut up.

    The whole team, except for Jeff Green, played like chit. You are not going to sleep walk to a win in the NBA cause even an inferior opponent can beat you.

    It's time to unleash Westbrook on these mfers.

    We COULD HAVE but we didn't. It is what it is. Move on to game 4.

    Don't blame the refs. We played dumb as hell. I'm getting real sick of Harden's "star" teammates not showing up to help when it matters.

    Gave up? That's way...too harsh to say. This team didn't "give up." If you thought we were going to sweep them with out Westbrook, then that's on you. We played two amazing games, and we had an off one tonight.

    No need to panic.

    They were desperate and had to get a b.s. call to send it to overtime and eventually win.

    Eric Gordon has to play better tho.
