Reason Rudy pulled on Adams is cause Adams was pushing him in the back

They could legit call almost all the fouls they tagged Rudy with on Adams every damn play. I also found it odd they reviewed the in bound play foul on crowder but Rubio got elbowed in the face at least twice by Westbrook and no one bothered to check for a tech or flagarant.

OKC didn’t miss though and that’s why we lost. I don’t think they shoot like that again... who knows.

It’s really not a bad idea to give Burks some minutes and see if he’s hot, especially if Ingles is being denied playmaking opportunities by their D. Burks can get his own shot, no one else but Mitchell really can. If he stinks just yank him back, you usually know right away if Burks is on or not.

It was impressive what Burks did there, but that's not what you want to see in the regular flow of the game. Burks running and gunning will shoot you out of a game more often than it carries you through one.

You're missing the point. Burks offers at least some offense, while Royce doesn't.
 
I'm very glad for Burks. He has to be in the rotation, we need his offense. Give some minutes to Udoh and Neto too.
It seems to me Ingles has not the playoff intensity. Royce O'Neale is getting too much consideration.
 
We needed a little more shot creation and i literally don’t think they can shoot better than that.

It’s like you didn’t even read the post.

Giving a couple posessions to Burks to see if he’s on or not is not going to kill us for a whole game.
 
I still like the Jazz in 6. Not concerned at all after this game. At one point in the middle of the 4th OKC was shooting 50% from the field and 50% from 3. They finished the game shooting 48% and 48% respectively. They were making EVERY SINGLE CONTESTED jumpshot. Literally every single one. Spida was banged up. Their crowd was loud and begging for a blowout. We didn't play well offensively. And Thunder still only won this game by 8.

Basically, this was OKC's best possible punch. The Jazz are still standing and throwing hands. They were given round one of the fight. But I still think we'll win the fight. I really don't see OKC replicating this game today.

I'm usually not an O'Neal fan. But, I've come to love his defense. I just think a little more offense on the floor with the second unit. Exum, Burks, O'Neal, Crowder and Favors
