Carmelo Anthony drops 30 in a blowout win you heard it here first folks!
I’ll be rooting for our 3 future HoF guys to show up tonight in the biggest game of the season. Let’s go OKC
This game literally could decide this franchise's future.
Win - possible WCF appearance as we match up better against Houston than Jazz, better chances at PG staying, next year even stronger team with Robes coming back.
Lose - PG probably going to LA, won't have enough salary cap to lure any big stars, 7-9th seed and 1st PO exits for the next couple of years because we won't(and I wouldn't) trade Westbrook for anyone and he's good enough to take us to playoffs every year.
If the Thunder somehow wins this game, the Jazz will have no chance of winning in game 7.
So pumped to see our guys come away with a win. Russ is going to make Rubio wish he stayed in Spain, PG will put Ingles on a poster, Adams and Strawberry Dakari will Eifel tower Gobert's mother, and Olympic Melo will show up for this game.
Can we just let Russ and Mitchell go at each other for the rest of the game? That might be fun
Game 5 was an aberration for 1.5 quarters, I wouldn’t expect the same thing in Utah, the crowd there is just as loud and crazy as OKC.
joe ingles has such a punchable face
if we lose this game. with rubio out, then there is no excuse
the Jazz might be the number 2 defensive team but that D goes way lower when Gobert is out.
15-6 Utah run and 2 fouls on Adams after Melo comes back on the floor.
Tell me how it’s possible For Gobert to play 21 minutes and have ZERO fouls? Adams 3 in 18
So you're just gonna ignore Melo being a hot flaming pile of poo
This whole third quarter is just Russ and Mitchell scoring. How do you win a punching match? Have a second guy enter the fight, cmon PG.
Damn, Utah is such a good defensive team.
2-12. PlayOff P? More like WayOff P!
This Utah crowd is loud af..
Losing to a bunch of journeymen and a rookie
Well, I'd like to say it's been a great season but it really hasn't. It was crap. Fits and starts all year. Fitting end.
Rubio done, their bench is in, and we blow the lead and haven’t even scored a point this quarter. The ****
jazz deserve it. that shoulda been 3 shots for PG, but that is not even close to why we lost. at least this miserable season is over. I appreciate you ruining 2 potentially great years billy! don’t let the door hit you on the way out
Gobert is something else man. If he doesn’t win DPOY it’s a joke.
Congrats to Utah they were the better team this series Donovan Mitchell is the real deal has a bright bright future
We need an almost perfect game tonight..Keep the faith thunder...
Terrible no call but shouldn't have been down 3-2 to the Jazz in the first place
Let PG & Melo bounce outta OKC. 5&7. Damn shame. What bums. They didn’t come to play. Loss is on them!!
Some advice for happiness: Live life the same way the Jazz live in the final four minutes of first halves.
OKC put two All-Stars next to the reigning league MVP. No one could have seen this season ending like this.
The loss — to a team with visibly less star power — was a disappointing first-round exit few saw coming at the beginning of the year.
Yet it’s fitting, isn’t it? Team ball beats out hero ball? Russ was an absolute monster this series, Mel is done. Period. Full stop. Retire. Playoff P choked, yet again, when he was needed most. The better team won.
Lol, without their starting P.G.
I took so much guff about being down on the team in the early season.
But now I have the greatest pleasure of them all… ¡I was right on the Internet!
Whenever you leave the game to the officials you’ve already lost. Maybe people will appreciate Roberson more seeing Donovan Mitchell drop nearly 30+ every game this series.
HOW THE MOTHER **** IS THAT NOT A FOUL. OUR SEASON ENDS BY A ****ING NO CALL. ARE YOU ****ING ME
Veteran team , Russ shooting 43 times for only just 46 points loosing games and playoffs nothing new for him , Billy should be fired immediately, OKC need a big Revolution
Goodbye, Donovan. How do you lose the game up so much after their PG goes out? End of game was BS and can’t wait for NBA’s LOL sorry we messed up tomorrow.
Frustrating OKC gave up so much for a “Big 3” to get what? 12 combined points from Melo and PG. Russ shot poorly but at least the dude played with heart and is a fierce competitor - not to mention he was shooting close to 50 percent before all of the desperation 3s. Only reason they were even close.
Okc had like 6 offensive rebounds and still couldn’t score to tie the game. How sad. And westbrick such a poor loser, must be so horrible to play alongside. Know idea how KD did it for so long.
Billy Donovan needs to be fired before the team boards the plane. The man has no system in place. PG13, I'm not sure if he even has heart. Melo needs to either opt out or retire. Robes needs to come back completely healthy!
Choked as I expected lol. Had 7 chances to make a 3 they bricked all of them then they got the nerves to cry about a non foul call
Paul George doesn't deserve to leave OKC after shooting 2/14 In an elimination game where Westbrook put the team on his back. PG (and the rest of the team) gave Westbrook no help at all
Clear foul on PG at the end, no idea how that wasn’t called, missing that call was an absolute joke.
They need to surround Russ with catch and shoot guys, he’s always drawing defenders which leaves teammates open and no one is hitting shots. Russ gets all this hate for trying to do it all by himself because no one else is stepping up
What future? No draft picks in the only important round this year or in 2020. No players to trade that people value because they see them all as invaluable because the coach can't coach them so they don't produce. No one seems to want to come to OKC for whatever reason I am still trying to figure the last one out. Basically, we are gon a ride the middle and maybe barely make the playoffs through the rest of Westbrooks contract, then he will leave and we will "trust the process" lol.
Paul George...you scored 5 points. 5 ****ing points. In an elimination game. Literally ****kkk off.
Top of Form
Carmelo was a -19. That is incredible. That takes serious effort to be that bad. The second worst +- on the Thunder was Abrines at -7, who played through most of Mitchell's crazy 3rd quarter run.
Bottom of Form
what an absolute circus it became after westbrook took that stupid attempt from long range, never seen a team get so many rebounds and not score, refs also didnt help and then couldnt even foul with 24 left, fire billy start the rebuild! should have dismantled the jaz in this series
Chokelahoma lmao. 3 allstars but cant beat a rookie? Thats karma for you for bashing kevin durants decision to join the warriors. Not a warrior fan
4 rebounds back to back and still couldn’t make it can’t believe Westbrook melo and George lost to a rookie team This Series shouldn’t have even been close and A couple bad fouls call shouldn’t have bothered them smh
So Westbrook needed 43 shots to get 46 points and yet no one thinks he's always been the problem in okc. Y'all still wonder why KD left? Y'all still wonder why pg13 is gone next season? Russ is terrible at basketball decisions and has a very low ball IQ. Okc should trade him while they can and build around pg13.
Melo has 7 Attempts in 25 mins and PG13 16 Attempts In 45 mins Both Out .... Westbrook had 40 + Attempts in 44 mins and Tonight and 5 Turnovers OKC Bench had only 12 Points while Utah Bench has 22 points and the Rookie was unstoppable tonight.....
Players improve after leaving Westbrook and Thunder:
James harden
Kevin durant
Victor olandipo
Serge ibaka
Reggie jackson
Domantas sabonis
Dion walter
Paul george next man up
Utah has the best fans in the NBA(refeerees)
Boy those big offseason additions sure showed up tonight
PG leaving. Old Melo opts in for 27 mil. Nobody wants to play with Westbrook. Good luck
as a lakers fan i’m not even excited about the prospect of PG, he looked VERY underwhelming most of the series.
Okc will never win a championship with Westbrook as a leader... The MV.me play with to much hate
If they need a washing machine they could trade Melo for it.
That was so pathetic, Paul George is such trash. WB played hard as always but PG looked terrified.
Big 3 bowed down to the rook lmao
I know PG got fouled but holy ****, 2-16, 7 TOs, 5 points, on an elimination game. That's the lowlight of the season for any player in the NBA, no one can show me a worst scenario.
Russell Westbrook had 19 3 point attempts... even curry doesn’t take that many.
PG shrunk like Rick Moranis tonight
We just gonna act like Mitchell never absolutely got what he wanted around the basket? Adams had his best game of the series and was the 2nd best player overall but Mitchell has had whatever he wants around the rim all series, Westbrook on the other hand....
Complete BS that Paul George is going to leave us after he chocked so hard in this final game
and **** Utah besides Mitchell. He's a star.
I’m absolutely ****ing livid that’s a foul 50/50 times WHAT THE ****
That Donovan Mitchell is pretty ****ing good isn't he
Excited for the losing future
Russ : 46p
Melo : 7p
PG : 5p
Okay...
CHOKEKLAHOMA CITY THUNDERS!
built to choke.....
Robbery in Utah
No Future.
FML.
DONE WITH THE NBA!! NO MORE WORRIES ABOUT THE REFS FOR ME.. I JUST WON'T WATCH OUR CARE FOR THE SPORT ANYMORE
don't complain about the foul, complain about how Paul George went 2 for 16!
Just overheard some sources around the front office that Donovan's job evaluation will take place after exit interviews. It’s not looking good.
Congrats to Utah, and Mitchells a beast. But that no-call is one of the worst calls I’ve ever seen
I can’t wait for joe bragging ingles and cocky rookie Mitchell to be put. Down a million pegs and beat so bad by Houston! It’s going to be fun and interesting seeing jazz whupped by the rockets!
you can blame players but utah actually played organized basketball. and that’s why they won.
The prospect of playing the Jazz without Rubio for the rest of the game was looking like a really good thing for the Thunder. Too bad they blew it. smh
