Question(not really specific to this game): Why is the defense so much better this year than last year?
OG Clips Fan #2
Refs, how many more FT’s you going to give the Thunder? WTF! The only obstacles I see this year are the Zebra’s.
just win
tough loss wow matt barnes played well did the best he could lamar played important minutes contribute on defensive end should have been on kevin durant he can guard 4 important moments in game vinnie should have been thinking win this game by defense first bring lamar barnes bledsoe griffin and deandre streches of the game u need stops cp3 will continue 2 get expose because he is not as atheletic as westbrook he maybe smarter but u can only hide short comings 4 so long teams will exploit it vinnie as tough decision

Was thinking the same thing!!!
Westbrook poses real problems for CP3 with his athleticism. Bledsoe can match up really well with Westbrook but CP3 does not have the footspeed or the strength to fight over the multiple pick and rolls that the Thunder run.
Also, am I the only one that wished Jamal Crawford took the last shot, not CP3. Nothing against CP3, but I think Jamal had a better chance of scoring on Durant than CP3 did on Westbrook.

Personally, I would have liked a Bledsoe iso against Kevin Martin. Bledsoe can get to the rim whenever and Martin isn’t a fantastic defender.
Still, Paul probably makes that shot most nights. He was just really off tonight.

Dude KD would murder odom. He would not be able to stay on Durant for more than a play or two. Kevin is way too quick for Odom at this stage in their careers.

Chris Paul will not shoot 14.3% against the Thunder again. I’ll bet my Michael Smith rookie card on that.

Tough loss. Not the end of the world. CP will play better next time. The Clips need to bounce back, finish up the roadie 3-1, by sweeping the back to back in Jersey and the ATL, get back to LA, and start working Chauncey back into the line-up. Its time for Mr. Bigshot. Mr. Green? Thanks for the contributions, stay ready, and don’t pull a Mo Williams on me. This team needs to get healthy, because we’re losing pieces, Barnes (finger), CP (thumb), Butler (shoulder). We need everyone back healthy, so we can sneak in a night off for key players vs weaker opponents.

good game clippers. I Think we, the thunder, will make it to the finals pretty easily again this season. The clips are the one team I do not want to face on the way there though.
