Well it sounds like one of Duncan or Parker is going to be back tonight, but in tradtional Pops fasion he's not going to say which one.

If we want to win this game we're going to have keep Durant and Westbrook under control and try to slow the pace down and play more of a half court game.

Tony and Timmy are playing tonight, good stuff.

I only saw the second half because I was watching some of the Wizards/Pistons game which sucked as I came just in time when OKC started making their run..We were in a good position to win it, but costly mistakes down the stretch killed us (Parker stepping out of bounds, giving up the offensive board to Krstic, Jefferson TO) not to mention that we took too many jump shots instead of attacking rail thin Krstic at the basket..Although I have to give some credit to the Thunder as they rotated well out to the shooters during the final minutes and forced us to take some bad shots..In the end it sucks that we had to lose like this, but we shouldn't hold our heads down as Duncan and Parker just came back from injuries and you can bet that our guys weren't fully adjusted after winning 2 games without them..

Didn't see the game at all but the one thing that I'm worried about did happen.

Jefferson getting only 4 shots. I hope someone can explain that.

When Duncan, Parker, and Manu is healthy, Jefferson is our 4th option. There's no denying that. He's been awesome when he gets the touches, but if Jefferson becomes our 4th option, and he's not even playing defense as good as Bogans, then we're doomed.

I've said that we need Jefferson to be Jefferson, especially when everyone is healthy. Let's see the next game. Jefferson needs about 10 FGA to truly make an impact on the floor.

My thoughts exactly.
