I would be surprised if Roberson plays more than 20 minutes in a Thunder uniform (or in the NBA)

I hope he plays better but he wasn’t good before the injury. Couldn’t really take advantage of a center-less warrior team and got abused by Thomas Bryant.

I wouldn't mind giving him more rest in order to come back stronger. We don't need to trade him soon. Next offseason was supposed to be the best moment to trade him (or at trade deadline if a good team needs a big). Anyway he played bad only 3-4 games after having a career year (even if he struggled late in the season like always). Still have faith that he can return to his best level. We also need CP3 to play well in order to feed Adams so...let's see

Did anyone see that guys face in the background during the anthem? That was unreal. Do they not screen the people who sing?

I like what I'm seeing offensively from our starting line up.

Shai’s scoop shot is sick.

I used it in rec league all these time, it's so easy to block but nobody ever realizes you're shooting it until it's too late

Go look at the predraft scouting report then tell me how sga is this good of a scorer in year two.

CP3 giving up that pass to get Bazley involved was nice to see. Adams has looked closer to himself but I’m guessing he re-aggregated something.

He finally has a coach with tactical competence.

Diallo has been really impressive tonight. Love the offense that he's created for himself and others.

I don't think he'll ever be starting SG material, but he's shown a decent amount of growth from year 1 to year 2 that I feel comfortable saying that he should have a nice career as a quality role player off the bench.

Hopefully you're right....at least about the Thunder uniform part. I hope he can resume his pro career....just not in an OKC uniform. Hopefully we've see the last of that FT air balling playing wearing "THUNDER" across his chest.

He's been actively looking for him all year. It almost seems like he's embraced what his role is in regards to this team's future.

As much as I would love to believe that CP3 is doing that of his own desire, I wonder if it’s because he’s been told that he’ll be moved by a certain date.

Ferguson runs away from good looks. That’s the third one he’s passed up tonight.

Glad to see Ferguson is finally involving himself in the offense tonight. This is what I want to see from him each night.
