12/5 | G23: Oklahoma City Thunder at Brooklyn Nets - 6:30PM CST

[Old Man Game]

Did you all see the "mosh pit" with the team after the game too? Looked like a bunch of college kids that had just advanced in the NCAA tournament. These guys enjoy playing together and it really shows in the on court product. Most fun this team has been in several years. Almost feels like 2011 all over again just with older dudes instead of young dudes.

I think this is what I missed most last year. Even wins felt painful.

I just mentioned that to my wife. This team is like the inverse of last year's team. As frustrating as that team was this team is just as much fun.

Do we have a coach now?
Billy Donovan made a great defensive scheme against the Pistons and draw a nice offensive play in the clutch tonight.
There's clearly something wrong!

So Billy went small in the crunch time in the 4th. Took Adams out and it worked beautifully. I wouldn’t recommend it a lot, but I’ll give him credit for it tonight

i would have preferred grant out and ferg in, but i guess it's fine either way. off the corner miss on that first possession there was a big bounce, and this game would have looked a lot worse (and that decision a lot worse) had the nets corralled the orb with adams out of the game.

Adams was geting killed when he was switched on a guard that why they took him out at the end but at the same time atleast half of those the guards didnt even try to stay with there man and gave the Nets the mismatches.

22-7 this quarter. Against the f***ing Nets. The bleeping Nets!!

Not even mad, but don't you ever get tired of/embarrassed by flipping out every time they have a bad stretch in a game? They've been one of the best teams in the league, and maybe the most watchable thunder team since the first year they had Kmart. Chill out, they're good.

Dont you get embarrassed jumping on here after the game and try make people look silly who are just expressing their feelings during real time?!

Anyone can come on here and talk crap after the fact.

can't get over the inbounds play. hope they use russ gravity this way more. even when the help came i was 90% sure he was going to shoot.

That's all good and well, but wtf was Harris(?) Thinking doubling off of the guy with 22 points in the quarter?

Just rewatched it and it was actually a miscommunication between RHJ and Dinwiddie. RHJ tried to switch for no reason when PG slipped the screen.

Awesome win.

Ferguson is really, really good on defense. His combination of length and quickness/agility is amazing.

Bob Beyer, such a great hire. The results speak for themselves. Credit where due and whatnot.

I really do buy the stuff about Melo's mentality.

I really don’t get why some people say our offense isn’t good. Inconsistent? Sure. But our offense has been fine.

Like I said, 9th in ORtg over past 15 games.

Sure, but bounces happen in this game. It’s ok that it worked well for OKC tonight

Didnt watch it but i will have to watch the replay. A weird feeling happened though when i was boxscore watching.. i got this feeling that even though they were down 20 all game i had a lil positive voice in my ear that they could come back. That definitely wasnt there last year when they got down by 20 odd to these sub 500 teams.

So happy for PG that he finallllly came up clutch. Should be a huge boost for him going forward

Who knew that all we needed was Bob Beyer... he was the key all along!

Totally. Give this guy another season or so in the league to get more seasoning and more respect from refs and he's going to be exceptional defensively. Not Roberson good because he doesn't have the frame to guard as many positions but still really good. And not a complete zero offensively. That shot isn't anywhere near as broken as Roberson's.

It's almost literally a major over reaction, any bad stretch, usually in games the team wins. Game after game. Take a look at the game threads. Almost nothing positive ever pointed out, massive overreactions to anything but perfect play. Would think he'd learn his lesson, eventually.

it's not all between the ears. maybe that comes, who knows. his frame allows him to slip through screens in an odd way.

There were just so many games last year where the team looked like it was laboring under the weight of carrying his tired game. All the ball stopping and iso jumpers. It was like watching Bradley Cooper in A Star is Born. Just a washed up celebrity that doesn't realize its already over.

It’s almost like Ferguson provides something on offense that Roberson doesn’t.
