Foul and send em to the line or at the very least blitz Luka... That last play call made ZERO sense on defense
You can live with someone else making that shot, and on DS of all people? Damn Ham was really bad today

Bron picked a bad time to have his worst game. Luka outplayed him.Justify what nikka? He has his worst game in the span of 6 and now it's back to bickering. Yall bipolar as fukk.
This ain't 2016 Game 7 Bron, this ain't 2013 prime Bron. Coming off a sore ankle and yall expect 2k numbers in double overtime.
We saw what happened when he didn't settle for the 3 three. Got to the basket and got swarmed, no call
Who did you want to have the ball in their hands then? Westbrook? Dennis?
Luka is gonna Luka, a 38 year old Luka ain't hitting that believe that
Wenyen Gabriel, Troy Brown Jr, and a struggling Dennis Schroder shouldnt have been playing straight through overtime.
Reggie Bullock's man should have sprinted at Luka
What an embarassing admission.

Terrible loss. Hopefully it doesnt fukk them in terms of seeding in the long run. Cause if not at least got this learning experience outta the way now.

Bryant was horrible today, no issue with Wenyen playing over him.
Bryant was swiss cheese defensively and by far a team worst -17. He was getting attacked relentlessly. Gabriel had to play and he played well.
It stayed as close as it did cause Wenyen played. This was a game we needed Reaves and Lonnie for spurts.
Russ did his job.
If Bron so gassed, maybe he shouldn't take 28 shots.
Or maybe he should let someone else be the playmaker.
How you gassed after sitting out the last 3 days?
BUT, just in case you guys didn't notice,
Westbrook played deep into the 4th and double OT.
He'll be starting by mid February - early March.

"Not a foul"
I know that some people don't actually know ball, and they just listen to media members like Skip Bayless repeat over and over again that "Bron just gotta drive it and get fouled and go to the FT line!!!"
This is why it's hard to do.. You're putting your trust in refs to actually call this and not swallow their whistle
Obviously Russ. He had the juice. Give him the damn ball.Justify what nikka? He has his worst game in the span of 6 and now it's back to bickering

I get it, but I feel like having Bryant out there on offensive glass and his ability to hit the midrange could have helped when your other offensive threats are gassed.
If he's WOAT for a min of a time then pull him. At least give him some shot so the offense isnt such a struggle. That Mavs offense was tired and in trouble as well so its possible he could have made something happen.

Thomas Bryant for as good as he is on offense is just unusually bad on defense. You would never be able to win with him. Imagine having to give this dude playoff minutes 
And the way Luka goes at Bron reminds me of the way Bron used to go at Kobe. Bron definitely isn't on Luka's level now. You the see the difference. They both had similar defenses against them but Luka is just a godly shotmaker while Bron just can't hit shyt.

Nothing wrong with that either.
There definitely shouldn't be the expectation for him to perform at that level at this stage of his career, but cats like @Th3Bronstan wanna do the most and make out like he's still the best player in the league despite not holding him to those expectations.
