You wouldn't expect expert analysis from Stephen "Captain Jack"Jackson. But that's what we got after his Spurs lost a heart-breaker againstthe Thunder in OKC last night. Here's what he told ESPN's Marc Stein : "It sucks. But those motherf**kers were just better than us." NBA experts have been struggling to understand what exactly happenedto the Spurs since they played so beautifully in the second half ofGame 2.
There are a lot of small explanations for why the Spurs collapsedso quickly out there, including: Russell Westbrook passed more and shot less (22.5 shots per game in the 2 losses, 16.5 shots per games in the4 wins) Thabo Sefolosha played more minutes , which allowed the Thunder to switch every Tony Parkerpick-and-roll and ultimately keep him from collapsing the defense James Harden played more point guard Gregg Popovich destroyed the rotations that played so efficiently all season But last night, both teams played the best they could have played. The Spurs moved the ball like they did in Game 2, scoring 63 pointsin the first half. Tim Duncan scored 25 and whipped out his vintage post game in thefourth quarter. Tony Parker had 17 points and 5 assists in thefirst quarter alone. Even Stephen Jackson made 6 of his 7three-point attempts.
But the Thunder, as Captain Jack put it so eloquently, justoutplayed them. They shot the ball exceptionally well (50% overall and 55% fromthree). Their stars all hit big shots in the fourth quarter. And,most impressively, they had the energy and focus to get key stopsin the last six minutes of the game — despite the fact thatDurant played all 48 minutes, Westbrook played 41 minutes, andHarden played 35 minutes off the bench.
A week ago, it would have been inconceivable to say the Thunderwere simply better than the Spurs. But after those first two games, OKC made a bunch of smalladjustments that only a really good, really talented, reallyconfident team can make. It wasn't the fluke. The Spurs didn't get unlucky. OKC was justbetter. I am an expert from Personal Care, usually analyzes all kind of industries situation, such as facial treatment essence , angel body lotion.
