Great minds, @thunderc .

LOL.

 

[msgkings322]

Lakers in 5?

Oh shit I meant Thunder in five lol

 

[thunderc]

Hard to argue with success but I really thought Joe had earned these shots McCain is getting. Probably next game.

 

[thunderc]

Big game by Chet

 

[thunderc]

Shai not going to force it

 

[SJ76]

So Unselfish this OKC squad

 

[msgkings322]

Injuries suck man. With Luka this would at least be a little competitive

Just the best team obviously from day 1 to now

 

[thunderc]

Thunder have a lot to clean up, but we know they will. Were fortunate tonight.

Agreed. Without him we pretty much have no chance...

Austin Reaves return has actually messed with some of that early Houston series confidence with role players

Lebron was great
But, his supporting cast was terrible

Somehow the return of a bad Reaves has ruined that early Ayton-Kennard flow from the first 3 games vs Houston
Maybe Luke Kennard needs to get more shots than Reeves until he shows something, anything.....

Would have been competitive if Reaves didn't suck ass tonight.

Might actually have been a real series if Luka wasn't hurt

I mean, OKC still wins. They’re winning the title this year

Reaves made a believer of me this year but he's a perfect example of a very good regular season player who is mediocre in the playoffs when the D tightens.

This is who he is. To his credit he is well past what his draft slot was

LeBron was a -6 BPM. Empty stats just like the 2014 Finals when he scored 30% of his points when trailing by at least 15 points.

Enough with this LeBron martyr complex.

If my aunt had balls, she'd be my uncle.

Such a bad post.

BPM for a single game is useless.

Especially in a game when the team loses by 20. Team performance is a large part of the equation and the Lakers got beat down.

But I don’t think you are even using BPM, rather just normal +-.

Every player on the Laker team that played more than 6 minutes was negative.

The Laker team was -6 for LeBron’s 36 minutes, but -12 for the 12 minutes he was on the bench.

That is actually exactly the opposite of the story you are trying to tell here.

Thanks for playing.

Enough with this LeBron martyr complex.

He had 12 points in the first quarter

Tells me you didn't watch the game

Last night was definitely the Lakers chance to get one, I would be surprised if the Thunder are close to that sloppy again in this series.
