That last end-of-the-quarter heave notwithstanding, how does George only get one shot during the entire third quarter? ::) #WellDoneWestbrook ;D

He's utter trash tonight.  2-12 shooting with 6 TOs.

I've seen the stat line, lol.

Is Carmelo just done?

Looks like it.  Grant is offering more versatility though.  Good shot blocker, can penetrate off the dribble, and sorta shoot 3s.  I hope OKC at least makes this somewhat entertaining.

It still looks like it could have an interesting finish ... maybe

So, uh, yeah - George is LA bound, huh? Why the hell would he want to stay here with this dysfunctional team and Westbrook’s domineering style? Russ is on track to take 40 (!) shots tonight, with George the next most at 12! That’s insane!

An OKC loss tonight combined with a Cavs loss on Sunday could very well mean George and Lebron in LA next year. Still won’t be enough on their own, though.

Lol just keep chucking, Russ. You’re driving PG right out of town.

My god Russ has the most frustrating tunnel vision. I can't imagine the pain of being a Thunder fan

Omg this is painful to watch from OKC.

Russ has taken 42 shots; the rest of OKC has shot a combined 47 shots.  :o

I usually hate when Westbrook plays like this, but he sort of has to right now.  He's gotten Adams some layups but nobody else is helping in the scoring column whatsoever.

He has had Felton wide open multiple times

Felton was hitting clutch shots

Russ is truly an idiot.  I appreciate his competitiveness, but that was just an awful finish.  He started throwing up his hail mary 3s with a minute left, down only 3.  Not a good look at all -- I agree that he has basically opened the door for PG to leave.

Perhaps not. There are rumors that he could possibly sign with the Sixers, instead. Now that would truly be a nightmare, lol. Just go back to Indiana, Paul, as that's where you belong, imo.
