    This is not defense. He literally grabs his arm and pulls him to him to try to steal the ball. At no level of basketball is this clean and not a foul. If OKC is allowed to play like this then no one is going to beat them.

    He may have been once Prichard got by him at the end there, but before that, no, he was just playing football on the basketball court because the refs let him. He was absolutely trying to steal the ball and grabbing and pulling Prichard’s arms.

    It’s kinda been ridiculous, the 9 game win streak was even more impressive considering

    This just f****** sucks, it’s going to be like when we had to play the Spurs in 2013 and got swept playing Darius Morris minutes, only possibly worse

    Well. If there ever was still an opportunity for LeBron to add to his resume… this would be it.

    And if he did, he’d be forever enshrined…
