I don't think that was the plan. That shot was a "oh sh#% I have the ball? uhhh... KOBE!"

I had a +12000K parlay on Chet 25+p, Smith 18+ (finished with 16), Houston W to win $2400 ($20 bet) ... Goodness never gonna forget Smith missing that last shot :lol:

OKC’s defense is just incredible overall. My goodness

KD is still great, but in crunch time it's too easy to get him off his spots.

To be fair it would have been a fadeaway, if he just left his hands up that's a wide open shot for SGA

He'd be shooting over a 7 ftr

He's also SGA and scored like 20 points in the 4th and OT

He isn’t a rotation player in the nba it appears.

Part of it is that he needs burn to figure out how to play. The issue is that he is finally getting playing time out of necessity and against the damn OKC Thunder.

He is poopin the bed but what do you expect when he should be getting his reps against bad/mid teams.

I am not high on him, but he is being set up to fail against OKC.

It's a sink or swim league, but he has more time than the first game of the season against the defending champs.

Kind of looks like Tom Savini behind the announcers.

Luka is still a big boy and a mofo… he will get where he wants anytime he wants.
