    Alright, I skimmed. Not a TON of breakdowns. I think the Thunder were rewarded for taking it to the hoop. I believe thats why they had the huge FT advantage. We cut back on out TOs, we win this game tonight.

    I think there’s a difference between taking it to the hoop (like Dame did) and taking it at the hoop and running into the defender and getting the call every time (like George does). Dame got bodied so much and they never called it. He’s just amazing at taking the contact and still making the shot.

    I totally agree. This is a series I think all the home teams will win. So I’m thinking Blazers in 7

    Yep. Even poor Anfernee Simons got slammed to the floor on a drive. No call. He was like "what?"

    Another thing I really Love Shrouder as a backup PG. He is so much better than Evan Turner it’s not even close

    I liked Schroeder in Game 1 for sure. 0/7 from three.

    How do you guys feel about sitting Dame to start the 4th? Seemed like he never got his groove back. I get giving him a rest, but I think unless Dame asks out you should ride him until they stop it.

    Yea but I’m just imagining him in our system. Evan Turner has never pissed me off so much

    Fine with it in context of the series. Don't think a gassed Dame at the end of the game would have given us a better chance to win tonight, and there is one more on the road he'll likely need to go 36+ on.

    Didnt like it. You keep playing him. If his production wanes because hes tired, then you sit him for 2-3 minutes MAX, or call a timeout. It's the playoffs...

    Hes still not good. Inefficient player who needs the ball, and cant defend.
