Game Over! Thunder 131 Mavs 102 #News9Thunder

Optimistic analysis: OKC drills Dallas in 2 games. And if KD shoots just 40% & not 6 of 33, OKC would've won Game 2 by 12 pts. #News9Thunder

I predicted a 15 point win for the @okcthunder in game 3 vs. @dallasmavs. Let's see if they can double that. #OKCvsDAL #Thunder #Mavericks

Just pouring it on, sending a message to Mavs? #News9Thunder

— Steve McGehee (@SteveMcGehee) April 22, 2016

In a game this chippy, the obvious question is why are the OKC starters still out there? #News9Thunder

Thunder 97 Mavs 78 after three, KD-31pts, his playoff average is 28. #News9Thunder

— Steve McGehee (@SteveMcGehee) April 22, 2016

97 points after 3 quarters. Hard to believe this is the same Thunder team from Game 2. #News9Thunder

Welcome to the rip move Mr Harris. Keep your hands to yourself!

Love KD-however, it seems it would be in the best interest of the offense for him to swing the ball. Occasionally. He shoots on most touches

— Dean Blevins (@DeanBlevins) April 22, 2016

Phantom foul on Enes, Harris slipped on court. #News9Thunder

— Steve McGehee (@SteveMcGehee) April 22, 2016

Russ with a pair of 3's, Thunder up 16 #News9Thunder

— Steve McGehee (@SteveMcGehee) April 22, 2016

Perhaps Mav shenanigans -- from anti-sock hop to excessive whining, will get OKC's attention. All I know for sure is the need to separate.

— Dean Blevins (@DeanBlevins) April 22, 2016

Dirk with words to Roberson. #News9Thunder

— Steve McGehee (@SteveMcGehee) April 22, 2016

On pace to give up 100 to this beleaguered Dallas bunch, that is NOT championship D.. Not even close. #ThunderMavs

— Kelly (@kellyogle) April 22, 2016

Mavs back to within 10 and the crowd comes alive again. #News9Thunder

— Steve McGehee (@SteveMcGehee) April 22, 2016

Double T is a cop out!!

— Kelly (@kellyogle) April 22, 2016

Durant with the elbow on the free throw. #News9Thunder

— Steve McGehee (@SteveMcGehee) April 22, 2016

I want to see the Thunder play some shutdown D, this Dallas team should not score 90 on us. #ThunderUp

— Kelly (@kellyogle) April 22, 2016

Thunder 58 Mavs 48 Half #News9Thunder

— Steve McGehee (@SteveMcGehee) April 22, 2016

Ouch! KD picks up third foul with 4 secs left in half. #News9Thunder

— Steve McGehee (@SteveMcGehee) April 22, 2016

OKC shooting 6/7 in 2nd quarter, OKC up 14 #News9Thunder

— Steve McGehee (@SteveMcGehee) April 21, 2016

If Russ & Thunder don't play better D they'll be in trouble as soon as OKC cools off. @NEWS9

— Dean Blevins (@DeanBlevins) April 21, 2016

KD feeling it, demanding the ball and scoring, up to 16pts. #News9Thunder

— Steve McGehee (@SteveMcGehee) April 21, 2016

Thunder 27 Mavs 21 after one, Durant-9pts 4/6 shooting #News9Thunder

— Steve McGehee (@SteveMcGehee) April 21, 2016

Hello Dion! #News9Thunder

— Steve McGehee (@SteveMcGehee) April 21, 2016

OKC 5/8 early, more importantly KD is 2/3 shooting #News9Thunder

— Steve McGehee (@SteveMcGehee) April 21, 2016

My prediction in #OKCvsDAL Game 3: @okcthunder by 15.

— Chuck Fisher (@cfishernews9) April 21, 2016

Carlisle: less likely Williams plays, more likely Barea plays, Lee is up in the air. #News9Thunder
