OKC doing well coming up to HT with a 20 pt lead.

Hooroo

Adams on sidelines after this from ESPN tweeter on their website?
 
"Steven Adams was forced out of the game after taking a karate kick to the groin by Draymond Green. This is the second straight game Green has hit Adams below the belt. Green assessed a flagrant 1 for the play."
 
What the?????

Okc really getting it done now. Curry cant buy a bucket, by his standards. Green really is a fluffybunny. Kicked Adams straight in the nuts on purpose. Got called on it but it was filth. 
Right now okc are fucken smashing GS. 69-47. 28-7 run.

Massive quarter there from OKC. 38-19 and a 25 point lead

Adams was kicked in the nuts by Green in the 2nd Q. He did well to nail both FTs for the flagrant foul.
 
OKC lead 72-47 at HT.

Green idiotic foul on Westbrook on the buzzer at half court! Westbrook shoots all 3 from the line.

 Yes they can but it's easier to get away with murder
 
From ESPN twitter feed:
 
"Draymond Green now has 2 flagrant foul points in the playoffs. Anything beyond 3 points is an automatic 1-game suspension. A Flagrant 2 foul or two more Flagrant 1 fouls would get Green suspended."

Marv Albert (commentator) mentioned he still has a chip on his shoulder after only being taken 35th pick in his draft year. So much so, he can name every player selected ahead of him.

This is a rout. Have GSW thrown in the towel?

raznomore

Watch Curry hes not talking hes not got much going on his shot and theres a lot of head down.

I think both teams have to an extent - barely any of the starters are on the court. No point playing them now, nothing really to be gained, plenty to be lost.
