Scott Brooks is the worst coach of all playoff teams.
I personally think he's tied with VDN. However, I think even VDN would learn not to start Kendrick Perkins against the Miami heat. After watching OKC get butt raped by Miami for the 6th time in a row it is amazing that he absolutely refuses to change the starting lineup. Every game against Miami starts and ends the EXACT same way. OKC struggles to score WHILE struggling to stop Miami because they abuse Perkins on both ends of the floor. They know that they don't have to guard him so they use his man to help trap KD / Westbrook. On the other end they know that he is the slowest player in the NBA and can't guard the PnR. It's awful, OKC will not beat Miami in a series with Kendrick Perkins in the starting lineup.

At least VDN runs plays. Brooks really just offers words of wisdom. Keeps guys in sync. Our "talent" wins most of our games, all iso's and 1on1's. Seems like he doesn't have full control of this team. His rotations are even suspect.
But seriously, I think we should address our big man situation first. Almost any other starting C would be an upgrade over Perk. We have all the assets to make a trade. If nothing happens, there's seriously no hope in winning a title over Miami, unless New York or some East team knocks them out, which is unlikely.

If this loss (and the 5 previous losses to Miami before it) FINALLY brings about a trade for a legit big man it would be great. We can't beat Miami like this.. especially with the way Brooks fails to adjust

No doubt, but Ibaka is just as bad against the Heat as Perkins. Ibaka is very overrated as a defender and is only good at blocking shots. He can't score around the basket and has poor fundamental defensive and rebounding understanding. I actually think Ibaka would play better at center.
