Buzzard wrote:Beating OKC is a solid team win. KP surprisingly outplayed the mighty Moses. Luka had a hell of a game. The box score is crazy. OKC shot better from the field and out rebounded my Pacers by a good bit. With the way Moses has been playing I will consider this a upset and take the W with a quickness.

Yall blew us out. Total boxscore includes a lot of garbage time considering y'all were almost up 30 at one point.

Westbrook is officially a problem. The fact we're 6-6 with him playing so godawful is shocking. I was expecting about 22/10/10 on 44% shooting. We can't get any type of production from him.

I gotta hit up bish, maybe I forgot to change my defensive strategy back after the Spurs game or something. That or I need to move Russ to SG and Ben to PG. Either way I'm tired of my 5 star being my worst starter. The man is godawful right now.

Also this defense is getting slayed every night. Fouling their asses off. I need rim protection.

Just caught up on the commentary about my loss last night. Yeah, we have no offense lol. Thought it was interesting that we outscored them in the second half after getting destroyed in the first.

I supervised my school's Varsity Girls basketball game last night and it was, uh, not pretty. Small school, and basketball is far from the focal point.

We went into the 4th up 19. You can call the 4th garbage time if you like but you outscored us 22 - 14....

With the way Zion and Sexton played I think I was lucky to get this win. Without Moses putting up 30 or more your offense is hurting. Westbrook's career TS% is only .528.

Oh look at that ..toronto loses again and is already predicting another loss vs the trailblazers as opposed to trying to switch the line up.. I guess I shouldn't be surprised treadmill teams don't have ambitions of winning it all

Me with a healthy starting five is a problem, the moment that Zubac gets hurt my interior defense becomes Charmin soft.
