More Thunder quotes after game 3-"a giant with pterodactyl arms is patrolling the paint"

Anyone got video of this? Would love to see the replay (was watching ESPN) but it could quite possibly be the worst no-call I’ve ever seen. I’d have to watch it again, though.

That was the most infuriating play of the series. Absolute garbage reffing. It was like Adams didn't even want to be on the court for this *** whooping so he does an obnoxious intentional foul...crickets from the refs.
 
You Got 4 Superstar And Playing Like A College Team! WHY? Becasue We Got A College Basketball Coach!!! ISO ISO ISO What Else Do You Got, Billy?

Becoming a superstar in OKC must be cheap. LOL seriously who is the 4th? or even 3rd?
 
Billy Donovan is a **** coach, said it for years. clearly he rode the coattails of Joakim Noah and Al Horford to get to the point where he's at. Never, ever, ever believed in him tbh.

When the best thing you do as a coach is recruit, you should stay in college...


Westbrook rules that team with an iron fist anyway, clearly. the FO has too much vested interest in him for it to be any other way... Billy's a figurehead coach who traded his power/control for a paycheck... those fans deserve better

The funniest thing to me about these quotes are, and this one you hear everywhere;

OKC has more talent..... What ****ing games are they watching? Utah seems loaded with talent to me...

the other one and this ties in majorly with the first point is, the lack of comments about Rudy Gobert, who's omnipresent on the court.... It's almost like A) they don't want to give him credit. or B) they have just accepted Rudy is the long of the law and they are kinda past it in their minds, have accepted that part of the equation and are looking to blame/credit others.

+1. I’m really sick of hearing how OKC is the more talented team. Melo is garbage, no GM in the NBA would trade Gobert for Steven Adams straight up, and you might not find a GM willing to trade Mitchell for Paul George straight up. Yes, George is a star, but he’s not a superstar. DM has a superstar ceiling. Westbrook is better than Rubio, but I think we’re seeing that Rubio playing in Quin’s system is good enough to negate Westbrook. Hell, I haven’t even added in Favors or Ingles yet but yeah, they’re the more talented team.

If I was an OKC fan, I’d be more pissed about the fact that this lineup should still include Durant, Harden, Westbrook, and maybe even Ibaka. I realize it’s tough to pay everybody, but GS has figured out a way to do it with Curry, Thompson, Durant, and Green. True, you can’t sustain that for too long but if you’re OKC, pay a few years of luxury tax and win a damn title. Should Utah go on to win this series, I think we’ll be credited with blowing up OKC in a similar fashion to what we did to the Clippers last year.

A 1st round exit is going to get Paul George out of town ASAP, the front office will over react with some type of desperate trade meant to appease Westbrook and the wheels will just keep coming off from there.
 
Everybody talks about how the Big3 are playing terrible in the 4th quarters of games without pointing out the REASON that they’re playing terrible is because the Jazz are kicking their asses on defense all game long.

Jazz still aren’t getting credit for forcing Westbrook, George and Anthony into bad looks, bad shots and bad decisions. It’s a beautiful, beautiful thing.

If not for an unreal shooting game from PG13, they’re down 3-0 and facing elimination tomorrow.
 
The thing is people value individual talent over team talent. They say the guy who averages the triple double is far more talented than the guy who plays within their team's offense. But the proof of the pudding is in the tasting...who wins is what matters. That's where the true talent lies.
