I went in to work today and it's a little slow today. I thought I would go ahead and get this started a little early since we don't have any games for a few days.

Ferguson is back. Guess he was scared to lose his job after Dort good performances.

Seriously speaking, hope he's doing ok (and he will play better than past months)

He can have Diallo’s spot but he doesn’t deserve a starting spot.
Royce said billy was asked if he would be in the starting lineup and he said “we’ll see”.

If Ferguson starts over Dort then it reinforces that Billy is a garbage coach....
Ferguson playing decent basketball and taking Diallo’s minutes off the bench would be a nice boost, and if for some reason Ferg has a good game going we can ride him for 30 mins and take some of Dort’s usual minutes

this isn't strictly a billy donovan thing. how often has this team, in its history under sam presti, changed starters mid-season with the incumbent still available? i think you have to go back to when the team acquired nenad.

TaJ Gibson replaced Sabonis. We also haven’t had many times a rookie is outplaying a starter. With both Sabonis and Ferguson, they were goth given starting roles they probably didn’t deserve. You could say that’s still true of Ferguson.

Gonna have to sell my ticket tomorrow. A big snow storm is coming into Oklahoma/parts of Arkansas and Missouri. This will have to be the first home game I'll miss Anyway I'm banking on Schroder to be player of the game and go off.

I would offer to buy it but the forecast here isn’t great either.

In an unrelated note the OKC Blue beat the South Bay Lakers at the Beautiful Oklahoma City Myriad (across the street from the Chesapeake Arena). My boss went to the game and said it was bitter cold outside the Myriad and Chesapeake Arena and don't come to work tomorrow

They'll probably start Ferg because Dort is a 2 way so they'll view getting Ferg going as a necessity.

Garland with the worst looking three I’ve ever seen.

Did you miss dorts?

Glad there is trade stuff going on because the effort by the thunder tonight is pathetic.

Steven Adams is so damn worthless. His effort has been pathetic tonight.

Lets just find a backup center and sign Noel to a 3 or 4 year deal on the cheap to be the starter

It’s like when he gets hurt, it takes him ten games to get back to any semblance of himself. When he finally comes around and looks good again and then inevitably he gets beat up again.

You'd think after have 4 days off they'd come out refreshed and full of energy. Nope.

I haven't looked at the box score but it feels like Cleveland is out working them on the glass. The Cavs appear to be getting a lot of 2nd and 3rd shots. And Steven Adams looks lazy af out there. If the rebound doesn't fall directly into his lap he hasn't been interested in pursuing the rebound.

Is it time to have that annual Adams talk?
