Don't think the Grizzlies are one of those teams for the Thunder anymore (if KD is playing) since they brought in Uncle Jeff & Barnes

Only real threat is if Gasol has a big game & he seems content in not focusing on scoring.

You lost to a Parker-less Spurs squad in an elimination game, and it wasn't just on D.

You had KD out there getting it in the high post and iso'ing for mixed results, and Russ out there doing god knows what with no one else contributing to speak of.

The team badly needs someone who can introduce a semblance of an organized offense

Parker was trash that season, the Spurs were better with him off the floor for the entire 2014 season + Playoffs, offensively and defensively. If Parker plays that 2nd half there is a chance we win that game and force a game 7. They played much better the 2nd half when he was gone.

Yet the series between the Grizz and Spurs is 2-1(with Russ out in 2013) and 1-1 respectively. The Spurs didn't win a single game against the Thunder spanning from game 2 of the 2012 WCFs until the 1st game of the 2014 WCFs series, they played each other 4 times each in 2013 and 2014 RS.

Makes no sense how garbage Henderson is.....

C.J. McCollum was mistakenly put on the inactive list by coach Terry Stotts, so he will not play.

This is a weird one. McCollum went through warmups and even the team reporter said McCollum was active and starting. It's possible McCollum can't play because of a clerical error in the lineup sheet. This is easily the strangest situation of the season.

I love this game

No one thought RUss was a top 4 pick, Preesti had a hard on for Brook Lopez but picked Russ because he thought he was too talented to pass up.

Harden had just come off disappointing NCAA tourney, and people had doubts about his athleticism in the NBA. People thought Rubio and Tyreke were better or on par with as prospects.

Durant is the only guy you can say was an easy pick.

1st link: OK, maybe i should have said "most".

2nd Link: He went 6th to the Knicks.

3rd Link: Chad Ford was outted for changing his mock drafts years after he completed them. I wouldn't trust his old mock drafts.

Huh, Austin Rivers really can't miss anymore.

 

[TrillaMonsoon]

Sam is a terrible coach..Lavine is slumping. Wiggins has been terrible for going on around a month now. shyt is legit all bad outside of Kat.

And he's been pressing because of the shyt around him. No life from the team. Rubio is now even less effective on fast breaks becuase the other teams just sink to whoever else is running because they arent worried about him scoring

It's better for this team to lose and pick up more top of the draft talent, but they gotta figure out what kind of team they want to be and who you want to surround around KAT

The same one who says "yeah, put the Clippers on too"

 

[Serious]

I mean wtf

Minnesota is truly an infuriating team to watch. All this young talent. And from the looks of it, ANOTHER good young prospect will be joining the elephant graveyard in Minnesota.


And gotdamn, I legit--even as a Lakeshow fan, pray for the Pelicans to get Ben Simmons. Goodness gracious AD needs it. I will be content with Ingram.
