Screw these refs. They are not going to let us win tonight.

Hal14 wrote:OKC played harder tonight and they executed better on both ends. That is partly attributed to coaching. Daigneault probably prepared his team better and coached better during the game than Mazzula.

But to be fair, Daigneault is a really good coach. Probably a top 10 coach in the league, maybe top 5. So even if Joe gets outcoached by Daigneault, it doesn't necessarily make him a bad coach..

OKC is a good team. They're playing at home where role plays play better. JT and JB have been a bit off but I can't really point to bad shots or a ton of turnovers (the usual culprits) as the problem tonight. OKC has just been great tonight.

All that and we're still in this.
and that's "MR. Irrelevant" to you!!

No defense on one end, turnover on the other. That's game.

Well back to back on JT. That will hurt.

Tatum turnover and sends SGA to FT line. We need stops, not this.

Tatum absolutely sucks

This is a really, really good OKC team.

Our two stars really haven't turned up though. Very disappointing.

do you see how bad JB and Jrue have been in offense? How can you win.

How about a flopping tech on Holmgren there, when he was flailing around like a fish out of water to try and sell the call?

Or are they not calling those anymore? They called one on us in the first week of the season and that's it, no more?
Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)

Scal, they should have went at SGA an hour ago when he had 4 fouls.
