It’s officially time for this guy to go!!! Enough is enough this guy must have forgot how he got to this point. He started out letting the young guys play and develop now he only plays vets and if Westbrook didnt down last year we would still see fisher as the backup pg over Jackson. The guy doesn’t play lamb, Adams, or PJ3 he has totally went away from what got them to this point. He lacks common sense to play different lineups and constantly puts Westbrook and durant in bad positions by always playing them with non finishers. The guy isn’t even smart enough to run P&R with those 2 if all else fails every play call Durant is the only option to get the ball. Last part of my rant is the guy is loyal to a fault players care about winning that’s why nobody on Miami complains because they know they may play a major role 1 night and be a cheerleader the next Brooks doesn’t coach for matchups he coaches the same no matter who he plays. He has stopped developing his young assets and that is going to continue to hurt them. He has reached his peak with this team reminds me of Doug Collins with the bulls he just wasn’t the guy to get them over the hump. Any coaching suggestions?

always felt he was really overrated, who’s not going to succeed with Westbrook and Durant on their team really.

The Grizzlies throw TA on Durant. We are now throwing Courtney Lee at Westbrook. We still have Conley’s ball hawking defense and Tay Prince’s length. It’s a bad matchup for the Thunder.

  Have to agree with the matchup since we now know for years the Grizzlies are a major problem for the Thunder but the playoffs are all about adjustments and the Thunder rotation is incredible predictive every year.
  For my liking Sefolosha plays way to much since he lost a step defensively and is ALWAYS a non factor on defense. Westbrook and Jackson in the backcourt would more than equal Conley and Lee and why do you make Jackson the 4th scoring option in the regular season when you don’t use him well in the playoffs? I know Jackson couldn’t buy a bucket in game 3 but hell they somehow made it to overtime.
  On a sidenote I’m a little disappointment in KD. After a season like this I expect a little more from him in the playoffs. He’s not doing bad but also not very well. Tony Allen is great guarding him but it can’t really be that Allen equals KD on the offensive end in the first half of game 3. KD is a little bit passive in the first half and this only makes things worse when Westbrook needs to do most of the damage and is starting to shoot way to much. All in all I agree that the one to blame is Brooks. He has no clue of how to adjust in games like this and this separates him from the Thibs and a guy running the Spurs.

They’ve lost 2 games. They’ve been one of the top 3 teams in the nba for the past 3 seasons. The fact is, it’s always got to be someone’s fault. Scott Brooks is a really good coach. They are expected to win championships every year now so if that doesn’t happen someone is all of a sudden really terrible at their job. I think the issue is they lack a consistent third scorer and they are stuck with Perkins and his contract. If they had of amnestied him, that would’ve freed up cash to solve that 3rd scorer issue. I.e. maybe resigning Harden or getting a more reliable guy there. I think Steven Adams is gonna be solid next year( if they will play him) and if they keep this group together maybe Jeremy Lamb fills that need.

No Scott Brooks is not any good. I have been saying this for the last few years. He is the biggest reason holding OKC back.
He still cant install an offense. Just hopes Durant and Westbrook can beat everyone off an iso.

The idea that "Our team is good, so we should keep the coach" makes no sense. Brooks sucks, its obvious. Move on.
