OKC lost a very tough 113-109 game to the Houston Rockets this afternoon. The Thunder now trail the series 3-1 and their season could conceivably end on Tuesday in Houston. There’s a great deal to write about, the game, Billy Donovan’s decisions, the bench Sam Presti has on this roster, and Barry Tramel’s trolling of Russell Westbrook. BTW, on that one, I thought Russell handled it perfectly. Anyway, this is one of those times where I need 24 hours to compose myself, mostly on the decisions of Billy Donovan. I need to cool off and make sure what I write is fair. But right now–I’m still seething. I just don’t want to seethe excessively. I’ll just do the pressers for now and hope sleep brings me some tranquility.
Tramel seeking love from Russell back in 2013. I’m sure none of this had anything to do with what we saw today.
It made me think of this from last year. I just hope this doesn’t mean Russell will be joining the Warriors on July 4th.
