    Big win for the Blazers, still not over but they have to win one game out of three and they play two at home, they usually play better in Portland so...

    LOL at Methlahoma

    Suck it PG!

    Suck it Westbrick!

    They're getting dismantled by "No Layups" CJ McCollum and company!!!

    OKc is such an unlikeable team. Talking ****, showboating and crap after winning one game. I love this

    imagine losing in 5 to this Portland team with no Nurk

    maybe now CF and the media will stop giving OKC the respect they don’t deserve...”most dangerous team”...”I want to avoid them at all costs”...man please, they suck

    They're 6th seed. This is exactly who they're supposed to be.

    I admit Blazers are better than I gave them credit for and the Pelicans of last year were really overachieving, playing well.

    Worst mismatch last year.

    Friggin McCollum is averaging 27 and Lillard close to 30 ppg in the Thunder series.

    We got up big on them in 3 of the 4 games. We just suck at closing games.

    Russ was doing a lot of barking in game 3. Didn’t see much of that tonight. Just a big sour pus the whole fourth quarter. :(

    West

    Spurs series might go to 7.

    Portland, GSW likely to close it out.

    We dun know with Thunder for sure but 1 more win at best.

    The streets is saying Westbrook is just Elfrid Payton with anger issues.

    If roles were reversed, I am sure that Payton would feel ecstatic if someone told him his ceiling is Westbrick.

    Dun think he envisions himself to lead a franchise. And he is already 25.

    I also think this is not working out for WB and the Thunder, should have parted ways, I know he is loyal but there is nothing he can do to make this team better.

    Okay. Respect to Lillard overall, but McCollum did better tonight. Wasn't really watching the game first comment.

    Overall though... Westbrook is one of the most overrated players ever. Fourteen points on 21 shots !!!!.. big smh and lol

    Everybody knows -- and some have publicly stated -- his MVP was a mistake.
