The Thunder Bought One More Year To Solve Their Russell Westbrook Problem
Make no mistake about it. Despite Russell Westbrook’s new Thunder contract being reported as a three-year, $85.7 million deal, this is a one-year extension, and it is merely buying time.

The Thunder Are Just Too Goddamn Much

Russ And KD Are Running Things Now
Yes, for sure, the Oklahoma City Thunder made tactical adjustments that helped them in Game 3. They went small early, with Andre Roberson at power forward, rather than going huge, as they had in the first two games; they used Roberson as a screener instead of parking him in the corner where the Warr...

Somehow, The Thunder Are A Game Away From Bouncing The Spurs

On Saturday, Russell Westbrook cursed at a heckler. (More than one, it seems!) On Sunday, he was fined $25,000 for it.

Kevin Durant And Russell Westbrook Torch Mark Cuban And Charlie Villanueva
There’s no trash talk quite like end-of-series trash talk.

After the Thunder finished off the Mavericks in five game...

Russell Westbrook, Goddamn
