Green with the moment of madness fouling russ 40 feet from the basket at the end of half. Speaking of Russ, the lead would be 30 if he didn't insist on taking PUJIT threes....or any threes period...

It didn't take a genius to figure they'd bounce back Mr. Basketball Oracle
that's a bit more than just bouncing back, bro
A loss is a loss. Okc gives zero shits, Spurs smoked them last series too.

It's still just one game. All the Warriors need to do is one of these two on the road and they're good.

Maybe I'm crazy, but I think that the series being 2-2 would be worse for the Thunder than being down 3-1 for the Warriors would be. In other words, I think game 4 is possibly more important for the Thunder than the Warriors.

A loss was good for the Cavs ... get it out of their system.

Barkley said the same thing. I agree. Huge pressure for the thunder to protect home court.

Sure are a lot of "analysts" defending Green and that kick to the nuts last night, saying it obviously wasn't intentional. Uhhh, wat?

After the Blazers series and now this is it fair to ask what's happened to the Warriors defense?

I've been wondering the same thing. They have been lackadaisical in that regard throughout the season turning it on when they need to. That won't work here.

I honestly didn't watch much of the Blazers series so I just saw final scores and highlights, but that can be misleading. Last night the Thunder just hit everything they put up. It's hard to know whether that was bad defense or simply a great offensive outing. It was probably a little bit of both, but since the Warriors were so great all season I expect them to make some corrections and bounce back.

Makes sense. Teams with the firepower of the Thunder will do that at least once or twice in a series. I wasn't able to watch any of the game because I am out of town.

Yeah pretty much everything fell but there is something to the warriors D not looking anywhere near as good as in the past. Bogut is trash and draymond seems like he's gotten in his own head.

I love bismack biyambo.

Did Lue bench Klove in the fourth? I only watched the last two minutes because the bachelorette was on.
