Charles Barkley on OKC’s Reversion to Hero Ball in Games 5&6

Very poor set of questions by the OKC media in their presser with Durant and Westbrook. Other than Tramel, it appears the rest of the writers didn’t watch much of the last five minutes of the game. I guess they’re scared of asking too tough of questions of the two superstars.  Whatever. Let’s do this with Chuck instead as he talks about OKC’s addiction to hero ball.

My questions would have been, “Is your addiction to hero ball a result of selfishness or just wanting to win so bad you take too much of your teammates’ normal workload and put it on your shoulders? Why revert when you were playing so beautifully for the first time in like forever? Why change back?”

Follow up, “Does Billy Donovan ever tell you guys not to do this when it’s apparent you’ve gotten lost in the game in the wrong way or do you just free wheel as you please?”
