HoopsHype.com Oklahoma City Thunder Twitters

Lionel Hollins currently complaining about Durant lowering his shoulder to clear space. Something feels ironic about this.

The lack of movement opposite the ball by the Thunder is downright embarrassing and truly a disservice to Kevin Durant.

One of my favorite things: A foul is called, the crowd boos like crazy, their player raises his hand claiming the foul, and they fade out.

That's EXACTLY what Reggie Jackson needs to do if the Grizzlies are going to leave Arthur on him.

Are the Grizzlies really about to have Darrell Arthur cover Reggie Jackson? And is the Thunder really about to allow them to get away w/ it?

It's weak, but honestly, OKC's bigs really need to deploy flopping tactics against Z-Bo. When he shoves and drops his shoulder, fall down.

Barons score 5 goals in the third period, four goals the final six minutes. Incredible turn around. Barons lead series 3-1.#okcbarons

Rarely see Nick Collison this frustrated. He's getting called for every little thing and didn't get a call when he thought he was pushed.

Nick Collison exits the floor after picking up a third foul, and was as upset as I've ever seen him with ref Danny Crawford.

Already more FTs for @Kevin Durant than in Game 4 (10:26 in second).

Barons win 7-3 to take a commanding 3-1 lead in the best-of-7 series. Game 5 Thursday night at Cox Convention Center.#okcbarons

Durant's sagging off of Pondexter, too. Might want to get up on him.

Nick Collison to Marc Davis right now about that foul: "Marc! What's he doing to me? What's he doing to me?"

Barons get an empty netter. Up 6-3 with 1:24 left.#okcbarons

KD's not coming out to start the second quarter. Could be headed for the full 48 tonight. Or close to.

#Thunder leads 6-0 in second-chance points. Fortunate Memphis went 0/4 on second-chance opportunities.

Ibaka and Durant starting the second period, too. Brooks sticking with his big guns for this win-or-go-home game. Can't blame him.

Arcobello scores again, 2nd of game 8th of playoffs. Barons up 5-3 with 2:00 left.#okcbarons

Barons kill off PP.#okcbarons

Another strong start for Serge Ibaka. He's got nine points and five rebounds. Ibaka and Durant played the entire first quarter.

Stars on power play.#okcbarons

After one, the Thunder leads the Grizzlies 23-18. Durant has just four points on 1-for-8 shooting and the Thunder is ahead by five.

And then that happened. So maybe things are turning around.

Those last two plays basically summarize the last three games quite well. Just not going OKC's way.

Head-to-head, @Russell Westbrook leads Mike Conley in wins (10-7), scoring (18.8-13.7), assists (6.7-5.5) and rebounds (4.8-3.3). #ifrusscouldplay

Taylor Fedun scores on a 35-foot rebound with 5:36 left. Barons on verge of 3-1 series lead if they can close it out.#okcbarsons

KD starts the game 0-6. He's forcing.

Durant now 0-for-6.

Barons have outshot Stars 40-25

7:25 left in 3rd period. Barons tied with Stars 3-3. Barons lead best-of-7 series 2-1.#okcbarons

Bad sign: Perk demanding the ball offensively.

Tyrvainen scores on assists from Eager and House.#okcbarons

Barons No. 4 line gets a goal to tie Texas Stars 3-3 with 13:08 left. Barons lead series 2-1.#okcbarons

If refs continue to call things this close, #Thunder should get 35-40 free-throw attempts.

One more free-throw attempt and @Kevin Durant ties his total from Game 4.

Thunder daring Tony Allen and Tayshaun Prince to shoot tonight. Subtle adjustment. No more flying out and biting on pump fakes.

Stars still lead Barons 3-2 with 15 minutes left. Barons go on power play. OKC has outshot Texas 34-25.#okcbarons

Black brace protecting @Thabo Sefolosha's left hand gets pre-game approval from refs to be worn.

Really digging this @macklemore song they're playing before the Thunder game.

Commissioner David Stern in The Peake for Game 5 between #Thunder and Grizzlies.

Stars score late 2nd period to take a 3-2 lead after two periods. Barons lead best-of-7 series 2-1.#okcbarons

Barons get lucky. Arcobello leves penalty box and puck sitting there for breakaway. 4th straight game Arco has scored Tied 2-2.#okcbarons

Stars score a power play goal. Texas leads 2-1. If trend continues Barons lose. OKC is 5-0 not allowing a PP goal, 0-3 when allow PP goal.

Danis streak ends. Stars score with 13:11 left 2nd period. Tied 1-1. Barons lead series 2-1.#okcbarons

Barons goalie Yann Danis 5 straight scoreless periods. Danis has stopped 184 of last 190 shots in last 6 playoff games.#okcbarons

C.J. Stretch, moving to No. 2 line because of Anton Lander injury, scores early 2nd period. Barons up 1-0. Barons lead series 2-1#okcbarons

Thunder guard Thabo Sefolosha warmed up with a brace on his left wrist after injuring it in Game 4. Says he's good to go though.

Scott Brooks said his message to his team is to "enjoy this moment." Wrong. They need to FEEL this moment.

Whiteout for Game 5 in OKC: twitpic.com/cqtmkg

This Pixar movie sounds lame. MT @sactownroyalty: Stern is extremely animated now while discussing things with this small group of owners.

If Game 7 is necessary between #Thunder and Memphis, it will be at 2:30 p.m. Sunday.

Happy birthday @VCampbellBrown have a good one.

Look for roughly a 2:30 a.m. return for #Thunder at the airport.

OKC's three playoff exits: Lost to the Lakers (champs), lost to Dallas (champs), lost to Miami (champs). Grizz need one more to win it all.

OKC Thunder: Grizzlies take commanding 3-1 lead against Thunder bit.ly/17o9URk

The Thunder haven't lost four straight games since 2008-09, their first season. Except for one other time -- the 2012 NBA Finals.

Just sitting here thinking about how good of a basketball player Russell Westbrook is, for no reason at all.

Thunder were called for 30 fouls tonight, the Grizzlies 23.

Thunder fall behind 3-1, 103-97. KD with 27-7-7, Ibaka with 17 and 14, Martin with 18. OKC outscored 9-3 in overtime.

Final score: Grizzlies 103, Thunder 97. Memphis takes a 3-1 series lead. Game 5 is Wednesday night in OKC.

It's obviously off Jackson. This should've taken four seconds.

Which intangible was that?

Oof.

90 seconds left, Reggie Jackson with a critical charge. #flashbacks

The ball sits in the paint, three Thunder players stand and watch Z-Bo pick it up and put it back in.

You don't bite on on a Tony Allen pump fake.

Guys, guys. Don't bother watching the first two overtimes. This thing's headed for three. #2011

Overtime in Memphis.

And with that game-saving block, Perkins tells his haters to "Amnesty that!" Lol

Well that was tremendous defense from Perk. Why you don't run pick-and-roll with Conley though, I do not know.

Kendrick Perkins.

Looking forward to Nick Collison somehow being called for his seventh foul from the bench, and Z-Bo makes two free throws to win.

Or that works.

Kind of think you go for the win here.

That was @kdtrey5's first trip to the foul line other than shooting a technical in first half.

Hate the rip all you want, but KD uses it brilliantly. Dumb more players don't.
