    Is two #3 seeds “competitive.” They might not be a title team but those 3 have a winning body of work. I mean what are you talking about?

    You know I just don't know long I be continue to watch this team because they don't play the right way to be successful. I hope they trade some more of these older guys and don't care what they bring back. For awhile there when Powell and CJ was down they actually was playing the right way. Well traded they need get rid CJ too.

    And as long as CJ is here, that will continue to be the case. That is why I don't want to wait until Summer to move him. He will just impede Ant's development.

    I think Simon should have missed the free-throw intentionally. If OKC makes the two free throws at the other in the game is over.
    And we have no timeouts.

    OKC did just about all it could to hand the game to Portland

    CJ and Nurk combined for 33 points on 43 shots

    Yet after OKC missed the first, they should've missed the second on purpose. Instead they give us a great look to send it to OT.

    That's what two teams trying to lose looks like!

    Another game where Ant hasn't looked like anything special.
