Coach Ime Going with a big, strong slow non shooting lineup.. I said it 100 times when Was coaching for us, But he is stuck in the 1990s. :D

It should be interesting to see if they can hold on.. although OKC is playing without their second best player.

The Thunder are creeping up.
Only down 1, now.

Şengün brings the ball up. Point-Center?

Hahaha!!! :lol:



Amen Thompson, has done pretty well.
He bypassed his last year of High School and College, to play with the Overtime Elite (a League for 16 - 20 yr olds).

I mean I bet Kevin Durant is going to get really frustrated this year if he gets double teamed frequently who are the court spacers that will help him out..

I'm guessing neither team does it but a Derek white for A Thompson Would help out both teams tremendously in my opinion.

I wouldn't read much into it.

This is just the start of the season.
It will look different in March.

Oh, they're not trading him, for awhile.

On a Side Note.:
With players going to Pre-NBA Leagues and also younger Overseas Players.
It's time to lower the NBA Rookie age. I'd say go down 17 yrs, if they're ready?

PP and multiple picks for Amen Thompson would be more realistic.

Not saying that it will happen, but D.White is not going anywhere anytime soon.

It would be a big mistake, to let go of Thompson.
I don't see them doing it.

Mark Daigneault is such a maddie. He put Brooks Barnhizer, the 45th pick in last draft, into this highly competitve ring night game.

(It was only for 2 mins, but still ...)

I love that move. What are the chances Joe Mazz plays Amari Williams on opening night tomorrow, lol

Rockets need a guard real bad. Sheppard isn't gong to cut it for a team that is thinking championship.
