Don't think Russell is playing.

Off work for Thanksgiving break. A very rare 9:30 game I can stay up for.

Well, we've already played two other teams who, even when fully healthy, are mediocre without one or two of their best players and lost. I don't expect tonight to be any different.

Did Kanter just elevate and dunk on someone? Does he actually have that ability?

We were up 10-6. Lakers on a 15-4 run since. On another note, yet another game where we're tracking to score around only 20 points in a quarter, this time against a bad defensive team.

And that's an 14-2 run by the Lakers to turn their once 15-14 lead into a 29-14 lead. Capped off by a lucky ass four point play for the Lakers.

On another note, we just had an embarrassing 16 point 1st quarter. That made thre on that foul was BS. The foul call was correct, but the make was lucky as hell.

Down 29-16 after one quarter of play to a mediocre Lakers team without one of their best players. Same song, different verse.

If you're going to foul a three point shooter, at least do it properly so he can't get a shot up.

How is this team so **** horrible? How did we manage to go 6-1 or whatever and now can't even hang with the **** teams in the league? The roster sucks, but it has more NBA talent than the d league scrubs we've been losing to. Bring Scott Brooks back and the offense wouldn't be any worse.

We're not only having trouble hanging with the **** teams in the league. We're having a hard time hanging with the **** teams in the league without one or two of their best players.

There's no excuse for Roberson to still be this terrible of a FT shooter. He's Ben Wallace and Andre Drummond bad.

Lol Russ. Why don't you channel some of that anger into not getting beat off the dribble by 100 year old Jose calderon?

NaturalThunder · Post #15 » by **NaturalThunder** » Wed Nov 23, 2016 4:37 am

Of course Nick Young hit that. Wouldn't be a Thunder game without at least one end of quarter buzzer beater by our opponent.

spearsy23 · Post #16 » by **spearsy23** » Wed Nov 23, 2016 4:39 am

Lol let nick young dribble through the entire team and then have open shot. Team sucks and has no discipline at all. Gg Billy and Sam.

NaturalThunder · Post #17 » by **NaturalThunder** » Wed Nov 23, 2016 4:39 am

At least we outscored the Lakers 32-20 in the 2nd to turn a 13 point deficit after one, into a one point deficit at the half. Would've been nice if Young hadn't made that halftime three-point buzzer beater, though.

Young got an extremely good look at that.

There was zero question he was shooting it and we didn't bother contesting it. It honestly seems like we just don't even care. No attention to detail, not working hard on either end really, hell we can't even rebound.

On top of that every shot we take looks like a horrible one. Granted that might be because we suck from every are of the floor, but I seriously expect every shot to miss.

Every time we go on a scoring run we negate it with lazy defensive possessions.
