Our offense with George and the bench is too forced and constricted.

Why do we allow so many buzzer beaters
“If you're getting stops and you're making threes and the other team's not scoring, that's when you're going to see a huge point difference there,” coach Billy Donovan said.

Well, I expected us to come out flat, and we haven't.

Glad to see PG13 taking that deep shot at the end of the quarter.

Ron MF'in Baker is on a personal 8-0 run.

Knicks are 6-7 from three. They'll stop falling eventually (hopefully) but it's plenty annoying right now.

It wouldn't be a Thunder end of quarter/half/game shot if it wasn't a deep, inefficient, contested jumper.

Sometimes it looks like it's the first time our players are playing together.

At least he wasn't stat padding like 99% of players. That's what I wanted to say ;)

Knicks don't have Porzings, have 10 turnovers in the half, and they're still winning.

They're shooting 59 %...

With no Porzingis, it feels like if/when they finally cool off from three, then we'll run away with the game.

Hopefully they stop making every bleeping three-pointer they throw up.

Why is Westbrook such a terrible FT shooter now?

It makes no damn sense.
