It’s time for OKC to bring back KD to help Shai contend

This series couldve been over tonight. Okc had no business winning game 4 but Sga turned into Mj in the 4th quarter and literally didnt miss a midrange shot all game. I think Dallas blow them out next game. Okcs 3pt shooting just fell off a cliff.

I know none of y'all care, but it's late here and I had to tell someone. Ha ha
Glad you found them!! Did they come home on their own?
I appreciate that! One wandered close enough to the house that I was able to chase her down, and the other, I had to get all cut up through a pretty tall thistle patch (we live in the country and I'm a little behind on my landscaping recently).

I think SGA has to improve his 3 ball and shot selection.
Dribbling into mid range shots or getting blocked trying to finish over trees when your team is down by a decent margin late won’t get it done.
Yeah you can make them but it won’t get you back in the game

KD is like, if OKC can win 73 games next season, I'll come back.

Hopefully this means Luka is back. A Luka playing well makes the playoffs far more entertaining.

I own two cats and I rather Knicks or Boston win a championship than to loose them and that’s saying much cause I don’t like either franchise![]()

Glad you find them
Thank you! And word-- I hate having cats, but these little animals probably kept her alive during some pretty dark times in her life, so they're her babies and I have to live with it.
I can tell from your post that you get what she was going through.

Seems to get down on himself alot too.
Chet is basically a high level role player. He will never be good enough to be a first option. He needs others around him to feed off of.
This is kinda crazy to say given that he's only 21 and in his rookie year

Yeah he was a solid spot up shooter in Chicago, but he never got looks like this. Luka and Kyrie get him looks and lanes.

Alright. Time to give Kidd credit. He's done a nice job coaching in this series.
