    First time I read.the title it looked like "shooting " Pavlavic and I would support that.

    Give the minutes to Barton and let him learn

    The trick this season is to gang up on Durant and force Westbrook to beat your team. He will go into "black hole" mode and lose the game for you.

    Unfortunately "black hole mode" worked for them in our last game against them. I just think it's ridiculous that Westbrook shot 10 more shots in that game than Durant.

    That's the trick team's use in a seven game series. In the regular season, against inferior and average teams, Westbrook going off is pretty much lethal most of the time.

    But they didn't just have Durant and Westbrook last season. Harding was pivotal in dismantling that strategy. Yes there are a few games when that strategy won't work for you; but it gives you the best chance to beat them. Durant is the Batman and Westbrook is the robin thinking he is the Batman. Just watch man. You can actually quote me on this. Losing Harding will be the biggest mistake the OKC ever made. They should have kept Harding at Max and traded Westbrook. Harding knew his role and was fine playing it. He would have been a perfect Robin for Durant.
