Let the debate begin. Thunder should be happy w split & in good shape. Or, GSW got its mojo back & OKC may not win another game. @NEWS9

Looks like Kerr is gonna try to make it as big a margin as possible. Steph and Klay still in. Why? @NEWS9

— Dean Blevins (@DeanBlevins) May 19, 2016

Not surprised Thunder lose by a lot. But several disturbing signs. Other than KD's hot 2nd quarter, O stunk & D lacked G1 intensity. @NEWS9

I'm not one to rise and fall with every swing in the #playoffs. It's 1-1, and gonna be a long series. #News9Thunder #OKCvsGSW

#Warriors taking the same shots they took in Game 1, but they're now "good shots" since they're actually makin' 'em. #News9Thunder

— Chuck Fisher (@cfishernews9) May 19, 2016

Down 25, Singler in for KD. Final score? @NEWS9

— Dean Blevins (@DeanBlevins) May 19, 2016

OKC had the lead for 12 seconds in the game after a Waiters 3. #News9Thunder

— Steve McGehee (@SteveMcGehee) May 19, 2016

Horrible offense. This could get very ugly if the #Thunder don't show more pride than this. @NEWS9

— Dean Blevins (@DeanBlevins) May 19, 2016

Warriors 88 Thunder 68 after three #News9Thunder

— Steve McGehee (@SteveMcGehee) May 19, 2016

GWS hands are everywhere. @NEWS9

— Dean Blevins (@DeanBlevins) May 19, 2016

#Thunder will come out much more aggressive in G3 at Peake. Dubs have taken it to them. Can't happen or no chance in series. @NEWS9

— Dean Blevins (@DeanBlevins) May 19, 2016

When Curry is on, what can you do? #News9Thunder

— Steve McGehee (@SteveMcGehee) May 19, 2016

To know ones surprise, Adams 2 points and 2 rebounds shy from a double-double #News9Thunder

— Steve McGehee (@SteveMcGehee) May 19, 2016

BillyD hot about something. Like 2 c it. Dubs much tighter on KD. He's gotta b smart & not force it. Prolly not gonna get foul calls. @NEWS9

— Dean Blevins (@DeanBlevins) May 19, 2016

Great that the announcers have picked right up again with the Warriors love fest, how quickly they forgot game one.

— Kelly (@kellyogle) May 19, 2016

Areas of improvement OKC: Russ 1-5 3s. Russ quit attacking rim. Dion 1-6 FG. KD 5 TO. #Thunder were out rebounded 22-17. IQ. Refs. @NEWS9

— Dean Blevins (@DeanBlevins) May 19, 2016

Now if that's not a perfect example of beautiful OKC basketball followed by the most senseless basketball you'll ever see. @NEWS9

— Dean Blevins (@DeanBlevins) May 19, 2016

Warriors 57 Thunder 49 Half, everything going the Warriors way late ind 2nd. #News9Thunder

— Steve McGehee (@SteveMcGehee) May 19, 2016

Warriors are 3-less in the 2nd quarter. #News9Thunder

— Steve McGehee (@SteveMcGehee) May 19, 2016

When did Serge shrink he used to seem like a monster in the middle? #ThunderUp

— Kelly (@kellyogle) May 19, 2016

Whatever

— Dean Blevins (@DeanBlevins) May 19, 2016

Sure liked Russ taking it to the hole early. Forget the 3s. No one can stop him. @NEWS9

— Dean Blevins (@DeanBlevins) May 19, 2016

Cozy Warriors talking at each other. And cozy Warriors playing very close to dirty ball w Adams. Borderline cheap shots. KD is good. @NEWS9

— Dean Blevins (@DeanBlevins) May 19, 2016

Three fouls on Bogut. #News9Thunder

— Steve McGehee (@SteveMcGehee) May 19, 2016

Hello Serge! #News9Thunder

— Steve McGehee (@SteveMcGehee) May 19, 2016

Warriors timeout, KD has the turnover bug so he responds with back-to-back 3's #News9Thunder

— Steve McGehee (@SteveMcGehee) May 19, 2016

GSW on pace to go 24 of 48 from 3 & KD on pace to have 14 turns. Time to turn the page. @NEWS9

— Dean Blevins (@DeanBlevins) May 19, 2016

Warriors 27 Thunder 20 after one, 6 OKC turnovers, GS 6 out of 12 behind the arc. #News9Thunder

— Steve McGehee (@SteveMcGehee) May 19, 2016

KD's special. But those damn turnovers aren't. @NEWS9

— Dean Blevins (@DeanBlevins) May 19, 2016

I assume all OKC fans know what's riding on Adams being evaluated right now. Only difference between a chance to win & being toast. @NEWS9

— Dean Blevins (@DeanBlevins) May 19, 2016

Refs swallowing whistles on KD, Russ and now Waiters drives. Unbelievable. @NEWS9

— Dean Blevins (@DeanBlevins) May 19, 2016

I've never wanted a guy to get hit in the man region as now b/c if Adams wasn't it could be worse. @NEWS9

— Dean Blevins (@DeanBlevins) May 19, 2016

Ezeli picks up two quick fouls #News9Thunder

— Steve McGehee (@SteveMcGehee) May 19, 2016

Gotta like OKC stars trying to attack the rim. But absolutely nothing else on offensive end to like. @NEWS9

— Dean Blevins (@DeanBlevins) May 19, 2016

Book it. #Thunder will not get the calls tonight. @NEWS9

— Dean Blevins (@DeanBlevins) May 19, 2016

3 OKC possessions. Andre 1 on none & couldn't score & 2 turnovers. 6-0 Dubs. Some kind of U-G-L-Y. @NEWS9

— Dean Blevins (@DeanBlevins) May 19, 2016

Two Thunder turnovers and two Golden St. 3's, that is all. #News9Thunder
