    That’s not going to happen. We don’t have the shooters to blow them out. These guys are not very good 3 point shooters for the amount we take. We are to stupid of a team to hold a lead against a tough opponent like OKC. If this comes down to the wire it’s OKCs game to lose. MDA has no idea what to do in the clutch and neither does this team.

    3 point shots are fine. But i get angry when he takes those 40 footer off the dribble. Brah, you're shooting 20% relax.

    We're not playing to our potential. If you can't take the heat, then GTFO of the kitchen!

    A lot of teams in the NBA haven't been able to defend OKCs three guard monster very well. We did the first two games but they adjusted.

    Phenomenal defense or getting unprecedented leeway to foul? He's a walking handcheck and blocking foul IMO, if the refs called it properly Dort would play 5 minutes

    not even comparable

    Westbrook on a minute restriction

    Covington been trash offensively all bubble

    Green is like 5th or 6th scoring option

    SGA & Gallinari are both major parts of their offense

    Dort would foul out by the half if they call him like they do PJ.

    He's playing really good defense while keeping his hands up. Usually defenders reach and try to slap Harden's ball away. Dort doesnt do that. Harden can't do the hook move or the swipe up foul because Dort is super disciplined with his hand always vertical. He just moves his feet really well and strong like an ox. He's clearly one of the best perimeter defender in the NBA.

    Gordon is getting bodied every layup but if Schroeder gets near the hoop it’s a whistle. BS!
