Can't believe no one's started this yet... Holiday weekend? Am I the only one watching?

Thunder up by 1 at the half.

Thoughts on the game so far???

I think this is going to be one tough series... Roll Thunder Roll!

Ok, how is it that we forced 14 turnovers in the first half and only have a 1-point lead???

Poor shooting. Throughout most of that half, the Thunder's shooting was fairly atrocious, even on fast breaks. With the exception of Fisher who went 4-for-4 in the first half.

And the Tim Duncan "block" on Durant's dunk attempt on the fast break was BS. I played back the end-on-angle on my HD DVR and Duncan never touched the ball, only Durant's face! And if I remember right, that went the other way for a 3, so that's a potential 5-point swing, plus the Fisher 3-pointer incorrectly called as a 2, would have potentially made us up by 7 instead of 1. <sigh>

Looks like we ended up 41% shooting in the half, mostly due to a late 2nd-quarter surge by Durant, Westbrook and Fisher.

Where's Hardin???? What was he, 1 for 10?? Come on!!!

Looks like Duncan just picked up his 3rd foul at the beginning of the 3rd... ROLL THUNDER!!!!

It's been sloppy so far, but I think the Thunder have a great shot. It would be a huge boost to get out to a 1-0 lead in the series!

This one will go down to the wire. Whoever makes the last basket will probably win the game.

I don't normally agree with what Charles Barkley says but one thing I do. He said that the Thunder are a jump shot team and if they are on then they can't be beat. But if they are off then they cannot when. This is exactly the way that the Thunder is. I hate to say it but it is the way that I see it. Because I know that when they are on they are usually unstoppable. And yes this will be a very tough series for the Thunder. I know that we can pull it off though.

Well, our jumpers aren't falling, that's for sure. What, one field goal so far in the fourth quarter? And over halfway gone?

Sheesh... a game we had in hand, now we're gonna give it away...

How in God's name can you continue to call offensive fouls over and over when the defensive player's feet are both moving????

**tran** · 05-27-2012, 10:08 PM

Well boys we just TOOK that A$$ whooping...

**tRidiot** · 05-27-2012, 10:08 PM

Yeah.... we did. 4th quarter was horrendous.

I wasn't able to see much of this game and I'm sort of glad I didn't. What little I did see was all crap calls. What are these refs seeing? They are on the floor right there for Christ's sake!
