    Westbrook didn't even look at Brooks after that Memphis miss, and Brooks has to almost tackle Ken Mauer for a time-out.

    This is unreal.

    Now Westbrook dribbles for 8 seconds, and throws a flaming bag pass to Durant, who jacks up a contested shot.

    Is Russell Westbrook trying to play himself out of OKC? Know your role young man. Kevin Durant is Batman, you are Robin. Get him the damn ball!

    Westbrook just throws up a wild shot and misses down 4 with 3:00 left in OT.

    Is he in Panic Mode? What the hell? Durant should punch him in the face to get the ball at this point. Or, Kendrick Perkins should punch Westbrook in the face and tell his to stop dribbling the fricking baskeball and get the ball to Durant.

    Durant hasn't hit the broadside of a barn all game.

    If there's anyone in the playoffs I'm happy for, it's Lionel Hollins and Johnny Davis. And if you are any kind of Blazer fan, you know why.

    Yah, it's either broken or dislocated. He's done for the rest of the playoffs for sure.

    Wade is going to get a lot of shit for that, but I don't think it was intentional.

    At best that was a dislocation. That injury really hurts the Celtics chances.

    Damn, he's going to try to give it a go? That's pretty freaking manly.

    Really surprised that it's only a disolcation and he's back. I thought I saw a protrusion of a bone.

    This game is over. I don't get why he is out there with one arm.

    Perhaps they know once it cools down it's going to be very painful and he won't be able to return.

    The effect of this injury haven't yet been felt by Boston. It won't be okay after today's game. This is like Manu's injury and we saw how limited he was against the Grizz.

    Does anyone else get really annoyed watching OKC play because of Westbrook? He thinks he is the next AI and just ignores Durant a lot, he should be touching the ball 4 out of 5 plays in the 4th or in OT and Westbrook is trying to do it all himself. Im starting to think OKC will not have a shot at the finals as long as they have Chuckbrook on there team.
