    Dame has not been great so far. Goddammit, I'm beyond sick of him playing like shit.

    terrible end to that half. We lose a nine-motherfucking-teen point lead faster than we got it. Turnovers are killing us. Shitty low percentage threes seems to be what terry is looking for.

    Not sure if Layman would have helped but they sure were stagnant in the 2nd quarter when he would normally be in there. With all the hedging and trapping they are doing, Layman's style might actually help.

    Westbrick won't get another offensive foul for the rest of the series.

    Turnovers are murdering us, we really need to take advantage of how godawful PG is playing. Get some free throws feed Kanter a bit

    Yeah this not look good. Westbrook is totally working the refs as he walked off the floor. He will get his calls late in the game..... or he will get thrown out.

    Great 1st quarter, bad 2nd quarter. We need to go back to our energy from the 1st. 6 point lead is not enough against this team

    Dame wonders why people discount him and this is why. Right here.

    He looks asleep.

    The regular season is great, but the playoffs are where legends are made.

    We would be up 15 if we didn’t keep turning it over endlessly.

    If we aren't losing by double digits, he and George will shoot more FTs than our entire team.

    I see someone blaming Dame did this poster not watch 1st Q ? -- It seemed like everyone thought the Thunder would roll over and play dead and got sloppy this is a WHOLE team issue not Dame.
