PORTLAND, Ore. -- After a deflating 114-94 loss to the Portland Trail Blazers in Game 2, the Oklahoma City Thunder are heading back home Wednesday in an 0-2 hole with Russell Westbrook taking responsibility for the team's poor performance and vowing to play better in Game 3.
"Starting with myself, I've got to play better," Westbrook said. "And tonight the loss, I'm going to take full responsibility for tonight. Because the way I played was unacceptable. I'm going to be better, so I'm not worried one bit. My job is to make sure I continue to come out and will and lead our guys and make sure we have a chance to win the game.
