Thx for asking.

Paul, here's the problem w/ OKC tonite. Coach pulled the plug on em, got them away from their nature. They are a "chimp out" team. That's what they do. So when they built that lead by walking the ball up in the 3rd... they fell into a big fukking trap, false sense of security. And then they had like 5 pts in the first 6 minutes of the 4th.

If you go into "Chimp-out mode", there's no way in hell you score 5 pts in 6 minutes if you're OKC.

These patterns in games are like mini-traps. You think, oh shit, look at that. It's working. But you see this all the time in football and basketball... and all of a sudden it backfires.
