Sunday 12/7 NBA Game Thread

Post #1 » by **bisme37** » Sun Dec 7, 2025 4:56 pm

Wake up and join the fun you guys we've got games all day

- #1 Thunder go for 15th straight win, visit Jazz - An OKC win would match the longest win streak in franchise history, set by last year's title team, and would make the Thunder the 3rd team of all time to start a season 23-1 or better
- #2 vs #5 in East as Knicks host Magic
- #3 vs #4 in East as Raps host Celtics
- Luka returns as #2 in West Lakers visit #6 in East Sixers
- The first game is about to start so I should probably post this now - Have a nice Sunday good pals

No SGA for the thunder tonight....Remember the thunder have the Jazz draft pick if this is not in the top 8 and they face the Jazz tonight...

Didn't know SGA was out. I left OKC-UTA out of the poll because I figured everyone would just vote for OKC, but with no Shai I wish I'd have put it in there to see if people were tempted to pick the upset.

Wagner is down. Left knee buckled. Damn.

Doesn't look good for Wagner. Twisted his knee awkwardly when landing and had to be carried off

I fear the worst... that did not look good and Franz being in pain, on the floor for 5+ minutes and helped off the court is a bad sign. The guy is tough so this looks bad.

and the refs were going to let the foul go until they saw he was in pain... I can't stand NBA officiating. This is another thing causing injuries. Call the f'ing foul make or miss!

Somehow that wasn't a foul when Franz got injured but Brunson can flop around like a fish and gets a call over nothing.

They just got Paolo back, now Wagner went down. That sucks for the Magic fans.

Smart move by okc as everybody knows Utah will tank shamelessly to keep the pick.

Checkerboard Knicks court is more distracting than the cup courts

Mike Breen doing Hukporti dirty, damn, "he looks older than he is"? :lol:

rockmanslim · Post #20 » by **rockmanslim** » Sun Dec 7, 2025 6:58 pm

That move Brunson did at the end of the 3rd used to be a travel 100%

Who wins?
