    He dropped 46 kind of gets too say whatever he wants to the bench, its on the team to shut him up and they couldn't

    Yes 4 days in 5 nights is tough but the travel schedule was not an issue the Blazers traveled less than 1000 miles from San Antonio game 1 to OKC game 4.

    Plus there is no way in hell there will ever be less games. The 8 less home games would likely cost the team a minimum of 10 million in additional revenue not including what they make for broadcast rights. You are talking around a minimum 500 million dollar loss to the league and in reality the number is probably closer to a Billion dollars or more not ever ever going to happen.

    Disagree. I've seen Kobe go off and can't remember him jawing like that. Act like you've been there. Of course in his case, he hasnt.

    Kobe does not need to talk to get himself fired up maybe KD does or maybe he was doing it to rattle our guys, whatever the reason he scored 46 and his team won the game. If he drops 50 and talks trash the whole time and his team loses he looks like a chump, but they won so I say good move on his part.

    We were never really in this game. They outscored us in every quarter but the first.

    4 games, 5 nights, all contenders. 2/4 is pretty damn good.

    The biggest thing that killed was wasn't the 4th... it was the 10 first half Offensive boards by the thunder.

    Oh, and that TROB bonehead play at the end of the 3rd.

    Sounds like KD was responding to a blazer asst who was talking shit to him.

    My $ is on former OKC coach David Vanterpool.

    We played OKC with Westbrook earlier this year and beat them. I'm fact, it was Westbrook trying to play 1 on 5 that led to our victory. Bring back Westbrook please.

    That's loser speak. No such thing as a guaranteed loss. We could've won tonight. Very close.
