Well then they'll be doing more losing than winning if that's the case because it was Westbrook constantly forcing the issue that cost them in the end, countless turnovers that led to a 3 pointer from either Steph or Klay on the other end. He's got a solid group of guys around him, not just Durant. Although Durant can certainly be held accountable. When the Thunder were playing together as a team and moving the ball, THAT'S what got them up 3-1 in the series with 3 chances to put the Warriors away. But then for some reason, they went away from that these last 3 games and back to their old, iso-ball ways where it's "Your Turn-My Turn" between Durant and Westbrook... and look what happened. Adams was an absolute monster this series. Him, along with Ibaka and Kanter, the Warriors were completely outmatched in the paint. Plus Robertson, Randy Foye, and Dion Waiters are capable players as well. Westbrook has a very solid cast of players around him but he decides to take the ball himself and try to force something rather than move the ball, get the others involved and get good shots, it was that ball movement that had them leading by 13 in this game. Then when Golden State starting coming back, Westbrook (and Durant to a lesser degree) went away from that ball movement and involving the others to playing iso-hero ball making the issue THAT much worse and what was the result? 29-12 3rd quarter in favor of Golden State and we know the rest. Now instead of flying to Cleveland to face LeBron and co., they'll be fishing with Shaq, Kenny, Charles, and EJ in the summer.
