I think Westbrook wants to be thrown out of this game

Spurs styling gets a little sweeter when Timmy's involved.
Worst game I've seen as an OKC fan since the 2008 era.
The thing is I can't even hate on the Spurs like I normally would other opponents. Their offense is just so beautiful, and compared to ours, the difference is night and day. It makes me cringe how bad we look when we're out-coached like this, and especially when the Spurs can't miss and we can't buy a bucket. This is just game 1 and all that, and I know KD and Russ will do everything they can to prevent this kind of outcome again, but man I don't see us beating this team unless our defense and execution steps up by a lot.

I think Thunder could steal one at home, but I don't see the series going past 5 games if the Thunder don't feel like playing defense.

I know this is game 1, but to get this type of beating in the WCSF.

LMA is earning his money tonight. Holy cow.
I'm just happier that Green is actually contributing on offense.

Boban!
I love it when crowds go nuts for bench players. Like when the bulls would ask for the GOAT.....the player who was too good for the NBA, the white mamba. Fucking crowd would go nuts if he got put on the floor.

Well this was fun. Don't think game 2 will be a blowout, but as long as the Spurs can keep up this offensive rhythm I'm confident they can close out the next game.

Westbrook is the best part of this gif by far.

Personally hoping for a spurs hawks championship. Would like to see Portland but there not beating spurs and likely not gs. But I hope they can play well.

Spurs and Hawks would be the worst because Pop owns Buds soul. We lose by 50 almost every time...

KD is a huge asshole. He has completely shattered that nice guy image he had a few years ago lol

Even in he and Westbrook's press conference they were dismissing Kawhi's impact on the defensive end. I'm not sure what happened but ever since that Finals loss the Thunder have become a bunch of heels. KD calling Kawhi a system player probably looks really silly considering that even in the Spurs losses Kawhi has taken it to him every time.

Reminds me of when KD didn't want to give credit to Tony Allen when he was shutting him down in the playoffs years ago. I hope Leonard continues to take his lunch.
