Good win tonight, Adams in 3rd really helped a lot and the interior defense was good.
Ibaka was fantastic on D.
I still got no clue why payne isnt in tho.

Waiters has a "great" game because He hits 4 wide open threes. That was literally the only thing he did well but it looks like he played spectacularly. Why the hell is Cam the one having his minutes taken away when he has literally been the best player off the bench the entire season?

I really liked what Foye brought though, kinda hope we bring him back in the offseason.

I also really enjoyed watching KD chuck up 4 contested threes in a row early in the shot clock just because he could. Overall it was a really fun game to watch though, having Robes just makes everything run a little more smoothly.

It's hilarious because I guarantee you there will be people who think this just re-affirms that Dion is better than Roberson.

Well...whatever.

I'm glad they won, but this just worries me. Foye was OK, but of course took Cam's minutes, Dion found his shot so I'm sure we'll all hear about it for weeks, and there was bad late game offense. But overall, Adams was great and they won. So a mixed bag. Oh, and Robes returns and they don't give up 60 in the first half.

Now that Foye is apparently replacing Cam we're stuck in this awful catch-22: If Dion continues to suck we'll probably be bounced in round 2, and If Dion goes on a lengthy hot streak we could actually contend with the upper tier teams, but then we're giving him a multi-year extension in the offseason...

I'm resigned to Dion being on the team long term. He and Singler can buy homes in OKC.

First Thunder game I've missed this year. I'm on a self-imposed Thunder ban for one week. My reaction to Sunday's loss to the Cavs was not pretty. I end up having to do this once or twice per season (maybe not a full week but at least a game or two). Last year I had to impose a self-ban four or five times because that season from hell was really maddening and eventually just became downright depressing.

Of course not watching a game means I'm checking my phone every 10 minutes. The first time I checked the score it was the end of the 1st quarter and we were up 33-24. The second time I checked the score it happened to be the end of the 3rd quarter and we were up 87-81. The third time I checked the score there was about 7 minutes to go in the 4th quarter and we were up 105-83. I check it again about 5ish minutes later and see we're up 105-87 with four minutes to go. How did we manage to let them go on a 14-0 run in just 2-3 minutes of game time?

At least we won. I'm not watching tonight, either. Partially because I'm still imposing the ban, but mostly because I'm going to be at a high school regional tournament all day.

Oh, and I saw the Clippers lost to the Nuggets in LA. That covers up the sting of our bad loss at home to the Pacers last Friday.

Nice to see Robes back out there and the whole team play great D again. I do hate seeing Foye replace Cam tho. That was easily the worst-case scenario for the Foye trade and now it looks like it will be reality.

Donovan just loves making things harder for him than it needs to be.
