Questions:
Can Ridnour push the tempo again and force Paul to play some defense on him?
How will Durant react after his horrible shooting game against the Lakers?
Will our bigs be able to keep Chandler away from the offensive boards?
Will Green have another solid game while running on the break with Ridnour?

Psh, consider yourself lucky you weren't able to watch this god-awful game.

I was thinking about watching it, but decided to take a nap instead, when I woke up we were down 25, good thing I made the right choice.

What an ugly game. I watched the first quarter, wasn't able to watch the rest of the game. Looks like I saved myself a lot of misery.
