how come nobody criticized KD for missing though? :rolleyes Or being unable to guard anyone? KD missed his share of shots in crunch time, Ibaka committed a stupid foul on a Morris, Butler played way too many minutes. We were up 16 in the 3rd when Russ sat and blew that lead in under 3 minutes, that's where the game was lost, when Russ sits. I didn't like how KD defended a Dragic/Morris pick and roll either that lead to Dragic hitting a basket that put them up either 4 or 2. For some reason he stayed hugged up on him just effectively making it a double screen for Russ to get hung up on, no idea why you'd defend Morris that way and not space off him so Russ can get through or hedge.

but seriously, never liked the way okc plays in close games its either westbrook forced bad shot or kd forced bad shot

there is no reason kd couldnt get a better shot than pulling up from 36 feet with one dribble

Figured the apologists would show up.

I don't think anybody is knocking Russ for missing. Just bad shots. That's not even arguable.

He came down the court THREE straight times and took contested long twos. Literally no one else touched the ball in all of those possessions. 

We don't have to re-start the whole KD/Russ debate here. 

They were bad shots...point blank period. He shot them out the game. KD's done it before...Melo's done it before...even Lebron has done it before. We don't have to put the cape on for Russ EVERY time. He is capable of ******* up. Just like KD and every star is.
