Kevin Durant plays decoy in that Memphis attacks OKC on OT, again

It was a multi functional patented Slim Reaper-esque day of the week,a multi function to the left wing 3-pointer all around the an all in one big working day so that you have the lot of people waiting to explore explode Durant splashed down, and going to be the Thunder seemed in order to get all over the their way to understand more about erasing a multi function 20-point lead and taking an an absolute must have Game five.


But something weird happened. Kevin Durant didn't come into contact with going to be the ball -- never an a period of time -- as well as for commencing on another seven possessions. He didn't take an all in one worn out as well as for the next 12. His over the following attempt after that three was another in - depth ball allowing you to have 33 seconds to the left Six moments and 13 seconds passed between shots for Durant.


Inexplicable. Unexplainable.


"We had some top plays where the person has for more information regarding space going to be the carpeting Thunder coach Scott Brooks said.! ! !"We were giving Reggie [Jackson] a number of opportunities. We has been doing that going to be the game before and a number of us were able to learn more about be able to get into the paint and create easy opportunities."


Hold that. Did Brooks just call Kevin Durant,the best devastating,destructive scorer throughout the basketball,a multi function flooring spacer? Because that's most of them are you did The Thunder ran pick-and-roll so that you have Game 4 hero Reggie Jackson and Russell Westbrook despite the fact Durant waited helplessly in the edge on going to be the weakside.


"I weren't able to say I wasn't involved,graphs Durant said.: d"We have you heard something in the pick-and-roll and Reggie and Russ has been doing a multi functional great fantastic hobby concerning attacking. And about whether or not they were for more information on are usually available of all to do with me I would have been aggressive myself. Sometimes it's likely you have in order to get a multi functional decoy you can find and I'm fine leaving that. Once the ball comes my way, I have to receive ready and be aggressive for those times when I come into contact with aspect If I want going to be the ball, I've training course to explore are involved rebound a resource box and bring a resource box all the way on going to be the break. I belief my very own teammates, whatever decisions they make and I've just since you have to buy even better as well as for them."


Naturally, Durant took going to be the political, diplomatic approach. But there's don't you think explanation I may be regularly satisfied allowing an individual for Durant being that they are that uninvolved in the offense at a multi function critical point. Especially after this individual do nothing more than came out to learn more about finally get going so that you have that large 3.


Even had going to be the Thunder won the game -- they fell 100-99 in your overtime,going to be the fourth consecutive game to learn more about if you'd like extra some time -- going to be the idea for additional details on play Durant as an all in one decoy can have been do nothing more than as staggering. I mean, Durant said that about whether or not he or she wanted going to be the ball,they had for more information regarding are engaged rebound aspect small and bring a resource box up This would be the fact Kevin Freaking Durant we're talking about here How tends to this make any that you think are at ease?


Either way,going to be the Thunder were there in your put an end to Westbrook picked out Mike Conley's coat pocket for more information on send going to be the game for more information regarding overtime, and Durant had an all in one chance to learn more about win aspect so that you have 2.nine seconds to the left But of course the Thunder captivated all the way an all in one head-scratching play,allowing you to have Durant firing back and forth from 25 a person Serge Ibaka's guide was an all in one split-second too late and going to be the Grizzlies took Game five and a 3-2 series lead providing some one them back to explore Memphis.


So many of the story having to do with this shows has been Tony Allen's criminal defense on Durant, and in that case that person seemingly has held down the best a great scorer throughout the basketball. Allen was great now that you've got again, hounding Durant bring to an end and challenging every broken,but aspect wasn't him that placed No. 35 down tonight.


It was going to be the Thunder,by their exceptional admission. And that's an all in one massive, major down side to this.
