Okcs defense is AWFUL. How on earth are they top 10? Theyre offense and defense are both predicated on beating bad teams by large margins. They havent looked good defensively against any elite team.

Lol at the uncontested layup Lucas just had, Stoudemires rotation defense is the worst in the NBA, he didn't hedge over at all.

Bad news? Our atrocious defense gave up 58 first half points to the Timberwolves.

It's really good cause teams aren't allowed to defend you guys without getting called for a foul

Why is it a suspension if you touch the ref on the shoulder and ask him a question, but Chandler is allowed to run past and slap an official on the ass and that's nothing?

For sure. OKC would be a pretty mediocre team if it weren't for the refs. Don't think we've legitimately won a game in four years.

The Knicks were set to match the contract Morey initially offered. Lin then went back and asked for more.


A nice story, but not one that appears to be reality.

http://tracking.si.com/2012/07/24/jerem ... ty-injury/

But by the time Lin arrived in Houston to sign the offer sheet, the Rockets — after reports the Knicks would match — had pulled the first offer and changed the deal. The new offer sheet was for three years, with a third-year salary of $14.8 million.

I didn’t go back to them and ask for more money,” Lin said. “It wasn’t like they gave me the choice to sign one of the two and I chose the one that would hurt the Knicks. I had one contract offer. That was it.”

OKC needs to improve their 3 point defense. And their interior D. And Kevin Martin can't defend a wet paper bag.
