I thought it started with Grant's fourth foul. Durant immediately went to work. The sudden absence of crisp passing on the offensive end is inexplicable, though. Too bad, for a brief moment I started to hope for an upset win.
I don't remember when that happened. It just seemed like the Thunder when on a roll starting about the time Nash missed that technical free throw.

Jacking up outside shots when they keep on not falling is not a recipe for success.

Frankly, I'd have preferred that they never that big lead if they were just gonna blow it. Such a freaking tease. :(

Suns now getting the crap kicked out of them in the 4th. Wow. Thunder have some serious talent and we can't buy a bucket

How would a fan feel if they used to be a Seattle Supersonics fan?

The Suns are such bleeping 4th quarter chokers. Maybe because they are old.

Meanwhile Gortat continues to be a beast. 28 and 11.

The Thunder are so talented they just keep coming in waves until they wear you out. It's like holding back the ocean.

Durant dislocated Frye's shoulder last year and he got a no-call. ****.

Yeah and maybe it's because they only have a couple of players that would even make the roster for OKC. Dudley is our 3rd or 4th best player and he'd be lucky to get a job handing out towels for the Thunder.

I think about that whenever I watch the Thunder. Durant even played his rookie season when the team was still in Seattle.

Very true. At least they stayed in it. <---things a Sarvar owned team's fan would say.

On the bright side, the Thunder shouldn't be able to keep this much talent forever.

From up 16 in the 3rd quarter to outscored by 15 in the 4th. :rolleyes: Ugh.

Equally as bad as Lakers blowing a 21pts lead to lose to the Wizards.
Maybe not quite as bad, its the Wizards after all :)

Gortat. Best true Suns center I've seen as a Suns fan.

Yep...being a Suns fan when we were actually good, it was a classic "bad team hanging around, good team smashing them when it counts" game.

Dear Suns, please stop getting big leads and then coming out on the court in the 4th with your walkers to get spanked. It sucks, it already sucks watching Telfair do absolutely nothing on the court, why make it worse for us?

Sincerely,
A concerned Suns fan.

Dear Suns fan, we are what we are. Please stop getting excited by every little mirage you come across. We suck, and it doesn't matter if Telfair is out there or not.

Sincerely,
A clueless owner

I don't know about waves. Four guys averaged over 40 minutes each.
