What's up with Lambs minutes? He should be averaging at least 20-25 minutes per game and contributing which he isn't because he isn't getting the time from Brooks.

What's the deal?

He played like crap for too long, and then we got Butler, who has actually been playing surprisingly well. I'd like to see him get a few minutes each night to stay relevant but he really just hasn't earned minutes with the way he's looked since January.

Alright thanks.

A bit of a bummer though, I was hoping him to become more important to the team and actually help out.

I think many people still see him as a part of the long-term plans. He's just not quite there. He's too inconsistent more than anything else.

I was thinking this as well but as of now i cant see it.
What i think is going to end up happening is in the draft we will package him, TE (a tight end) and our first for another SG. I still think it will be Affalo, for some reason i think Presti wants him and he would be a fantastic fit for us.

Missed the game tonight but looked like much of the same as last time we played these guys.

Green, Dragic, Tucker ripped us up. KD/RW dominated our offence too much, not enough guys involved. We didn't play well and we still had a chance to win with 2 minutes left, just poor execution down the stretch.

This team has been really up and down since the all star break, hoping its a lack of concentration because there are no easy games or teams in the playoffs.

Big win, KD was off, but Westbrook played HUGE. Glad to see the starters back, it seems to allow the bench to get into the usual flow a bit better, and this should seal up the 2 seed. Maybe some rest for the guys in the last few games.

From last night, besides the obvious of Russell Westbrook is a BEAST...

Adams played well. If you go back and watch the first Clippers game and that one...it's two totally different people. The injuries this year have helped develop the young talent. He finally played above the rim, and took it right at Griffin. I'm excited to watch him wreck shop in the playoffs.

Perk got the ball and didn't pump fake...not once...I promise it happened.

In addition, Thabo lead a fast break and made a nice decision that ended with a bucket. I literally don't remember him leading a successful break before.

Nothing is certain but death, taxes, and Thabo blowing a fast break :)

He surely didn't pass it though, just took it himself? I semi remember this break.

Looking through the play by play because I can't remember for sure, it looks like it was an assist to KD. O.o

I was at the game today. Due to the win not getting anything and the Pacers being my (distant) second favorite team, I was as okay as I could be with the loss. I really hope Indy can pull out the #1 seed and beat the Heat. Having the Thunder in my hometown for the Finals would be great!

It was a pretty well played game by both sides. The frustration really started to show from almost our whole team. We were definitely playing to win in almost every angle, so we can't write it off too much to "aww, we just weren't really in it because it didn't mean anything".

You like the Pacers as well? I'm the sam, hence my sig (Reggie Miller fan).

Tough loss, but the positive I take is just that they kept in a tough road game vs a good team where they shot terribly.

Embarrassing loss.
