Ya blatantly intentional.

Did anyone else notice that weird moment between Donovan and SGA as SGA was coming out of the game just now?

We are playing some really bad basketball right now. Shouldn't be a surprise with lineups consisting of: Hall — Diallo — Nader — Ferguson — Bazley — Noel

If this isn't tanking for our pick not to convey, I don't know what is...

I rewatched it. I don’t think it was anything.

So how do you feel about this Thunder fans? Nothing wrong with notching a win going into the playoffs but considering a loss would have done nothing to hurt your playoff positioning I'm guessing it leaves a sour taste in the mouth. Thanks for nothing moose!

Opinions vary. I’m very much frustrated about the lack of commitment to a rebuild and think it could come back to bite us even more than it did last night.

What an idiotic way to coach that game. Get Kevin Hervey in there and we've still got our pick.

I hate tanking but even I was like wow. Why?
My eyes glaze over when reading alternative stat (not advanced stat) narratives that go many paragraphs long. If you can not make your point in 2 paragraphs it may not be a great point. :D

No. I've never seen Hervey make a jumper. If that's him instead of Muscala we lose the game.

Hervey just hit a couple of 3's against Phoenix. Put some respect on the man's name.
