Bro why couldn't kd just play good this series would have beat them in 5 or 6. Russ was playing like a top 2 player in the world for the first 4 games if kd just showed up 3 games we win this series in 6
Nah, you guys are looking at it wrong. This was the absolute peak of being a fan. It was an amazing period of time and we should be grateful we experienced it. Sad with the results and what could have been, of course. But you can't watch Russ high fiving his brother after that shot and not crack a smile. These years were special, win or lose.
I was heartbroken as a Cavs fan lmao, watching Westbrook destroy Curry those 3 games they won felt like a fever dream. Russ played angry and it was a privilege to watch, but him and KD just didn’t have that serial killer in them to finish them off. Will always be a crying shame
@Braden A Yes they were greatly assembled doesn't mean they were the best in the playoffs, spurs could have won the series against them had they stuck to their unselfish ball movement game plan instead of forcing Kawhi, inefficient slow lamarcus, and 40 year old tim to go iso, they just matched up to golden state perfectly thats why he said that
@Braden A I just said why they lost to them, that was their only legitimate competiton before facing golden state, and they lost because of not following their usual game plan, the same thing happened to thunder against the warriors they blew a 3-1 lead because they let kd and russ iso all game, and it caused them to lose game 5,6,7, instead of doing what they were usually doing in game 1,2,3
@Braden A coach donovan said that they weren't sticking to their game plan in game 5,6,7 and how ironic is it that when spurs were sticking to their unselfish ball movement game plan system, they blew thunder out by 32 in game 1, lost by 1 in game 2 due to horrible officiating, and won game 3 at their home court, then they stopped doing it after, you have to really experiment and study teams and games very well, thunder didn't beat spurs by iso ball, they beat them because involving adams in pick and rolls in the paint, involving dion and roberson which caused them to shoot efficient, and contributing to kanters paint ability with their size helped them win that series
@@bravooooooooooooooooooooo now answer this question will you? did warriors ever plays spurs in a series of the 2016 playoffs? no, he never played the therefore we would have not know what the series would have been like, good try though
Finally someone is standing up to the challenge of guarding Curry and we can all witness what that does to him. Westbrook is showing the world who the better player is. He isn't just relying on his 3 point shot like curry, he is assisting like crazy and defends Curry like no one else did this season.
I'm a warriors fan so I can't say it's over, but man... The thunder deserve to be champs. The Spurs, maybe us, possibly the cavs, best possible championship run ever! Hopefully we can figure y'all out but if not, life goes on.
This is PRIME westbrook right here. 2017 was ofcourse the best but Jesus Christ russ was completely on another level here and this was the closest he was to a chip🔥. He was fosho better than curry in this series had KD not sold
@@kennyhill9238 because 2016 cavs were a great team don't leave out that part, they figure out how to attack golden states paint d, and they figure out how to play physical d on steph to make him shoot inefficient that series, don't know how thunder couldn't figure it out being up 3-1, but yeah thats why they lost
Tips to beating the Warriors: 1. Be aggressive on offense 2. Slow down their tempo and disrupt their ball movement 3. Do your best to make sure that curry doesn't get into a rhythm 4. When you get the lead waste time 5. Most importantly make sure all your players are healthy because the warriors are only good at beating teams that are handicapped or injury prone
Man, as a Spurs fan I was extremely disappointed they took 3 straight form us to win the series 4-2. But after seeing this, it just looked like the Thunder were gonna easily glide all the way to the Championship.
Okc had it all that year. Had him and kd closed it out im pretty sure their legacies would be diffrent. Yes russ might not win nba mvp or kd might not have his 2 finals mvps but im pretty sure they couldve been the leugues most fav team in 17-19. Westbrook wont be known for stat padding or losing inthw first round. While kd wont be known as a snake
and KD ends up getting swept in the 1st round as well, so he ended up doing worse than Russ did, when he played the 1st rounds, because Russ didn't get swept
@@christianmacavintaramos2780 maybe you hit your brain hard on something or like the taste of kd's sack, but westbrick didn't have kyrie in his 1st round entourages, and won a game in each 1st round, kd with kyrie gets swept in the 1st round, where's your brain?
I wish D Rose never got hurt, would have been so good seeing him and Westbrook going at it in their prime. Imagine those two competitors in the finals!
The scary thing is most guys in the NBA has REACHED their ceiling in their games in order to get better. SKILL wise Curry has based on mastering his craft and WestBrook hasn't that is CRAZY scary as much as WestBrook has improved, he can still take it up even ANOTHER level. smh crazy.
Warriors fans using injury excuses is the funniest shit I've ever seen. After they beat up on injured teams for 2 years, they didn't wanna hear excuses from other team's fans 😂 They're also using the refs excuse, lmao yeah because the NBA is so against you that they let Draymond do whatever he wants with no repercussions. Kerr just said post game that Curry is healthy. He's just getting exposed for the fraud he is. 6-20 shooting, 2-10 from three, 6 turnovers, -19
Thunder in 6. I believe Golden State will win a hard fought game at home next. But okc will beat them back in Oklahoma. Curry choked, draymond ran his mouth, and the dubs are crumbling apart. I love it.
thunder take the next game. people tend to forget kd 8-0 in elimination games. series is over in game 5 book it. KD is going to bury The warriors next game.
+Andre Moxey of course. His IQ has improved so much. but hes on another level right now bro. Ive been a a thunder fan since kd came to the sonics franchise in 07.
Tonight he validated that he was the best PG in the game. If he plays like he did this year next year, he should win the MVP. Warriors one loss away from leapfrogging the 2007 Patriots and 2001 Mariners for biggest collapse in sports.
Russell Westbrook is the Jimi Hendrix of the NBA. An amalgum of Allen Iverson, Julius Erving and World B. Free. Plus he wears an outfit once then gives it away. Good article written by Thunder
Hard to seee how it was hard for durant to score with this team... that was one of his reasons for leaving right? Selfish, to much hero, too many hard baskets etc? This could’ve been a RIVALRY year in year out. Maybe even the greatest had these teams stayed intact
I'm a huge Curry fan,but I'll admit that Beastbrook has been beasting and feasting and deserves a ring.Curry just doesn't have it in him...Thunder in 6...
The only question I got is how bad does Russ and Kd want it, if they show me next game that they'll laying it all on the line I'll be convinced. I really want OKC to win the chip, and we need both of them to seal the deal and trample the hearts next game no more chances of life for GS. Lets go thunder!! #OnAMission #ThunderUp
Thunder went Super Saiyan 2 in the playoffs and caught everybody off guard like Gohan did 😂. Them boys hungry af. Can't see GS winning 3 in a row out of 4..
If the league let him play the way he wanted. He would of been got a ring but no they hating on him and wanted him to bad and we never got to see his true potential. He could of been better then his MVP year
It's starting to look like the Thunder felt extremely disrespected after Curry did his "shoot and turn around before it goes in" thing a couple times in game 2. I didn't think too much about it then, but he probably shouldn't do that anymore, especially against a team with "The Terminator" on it. Not sure if Chuck gave Russel that nickname, but I love it.
ladies and gentlemen let me just say that the Golden State Warriors championship last year was fraudulent there's was no OKC no Clippers San Antonio and now for the first time they lost back-to-back to a team that is 100% healthy and they are just very very lethal give credit to OKC and my goodness Russell Westbrook did a marvelous job on defending Steph Curry not once but twice

This was his best season ever. It’s clear that he was at his best when his jumper was falling and his aggression was controlled
and he was the best player on this team too, elite scorer and playmaker and was the reason they were up 3-1 the way he was outplaying Steph
