Re: 11/1-11/7 Game Discussion Thread

did you all hear Kevin Harlan go off after johnson hit a 3 at the buzzer in OT even though blazers lost? sounds hilarious! haha but he quickly realized it wasn't for the win.

Yeah, he was like, "For the tie! YES!!!!! No, they still lose by 1."

He thought it was for the tie ,but it was funny though. I'm surprised Reggie Miller didnt give him a hard time about it.

Great win tonight for Oklahoma City tonight. They have a lot to work on though. I still think KD is sleep walking early on though, but it's good, he'll continue to get better as the season stretches on(Go at the rack KD). Ibaka needs more minutes, dude is a difference maker, but even still we need to go after another big. Hell, sign Greg Oden at seasons end, just get a big man in there.

The defense needs to get better, and we have to start getting easy buckets. Westbrook and Durant, I'm looking at you. Go at the rim. When a big steps out on the perimeter, dribble drive, penetrate, go at the rim. You don't have to settle for a jumper every trip down.

James Hardin needs more minutes. He's getting better on defense, and he can score. Also, play Cole A. He's an asset on the boards and he knows how to set a screen.

Cut back Jeff Greens minutes. Yes, he can score, but he continually gets abused playing the 4, and it hurts us on the boards.(Yes, I can rhyme)

But, I'm happy we came out with the win though.

I totally agree with everything you said up there!! My biggest concren is Jeff Green at the 4. I'm cool with Kristic starting. But Ibaka and Cole need more minutes. But I think they will eveutually come. I just think Scotty last night didn't want to go under .500 last night. Thats why Durant played 52 minutes last night. Westbrook was a beast on the boards. I have to say though best thing about the Thunder right now are they're free throw. Between Green, Durant and Westbrook they went for 19-19 from the line.

But man oh man....The biggest thing that went under the radar in the Knicks-Bulls game was Felton's stat line of 20 points and 10 dimes.

I love that addias commercial though...Feels like 10 cups of coffee with another gallon of sugar in it lol

Re: 11/1-11/7 Game Discussion Thread

Cant wait for tomorrow big game. What better way to earn the franchise best start then against the Heat. 5-0 would be so sweet and against the level of competition we have beat so far would do a lot for this team confidence.

This will be the toughest one so far ,but atleast we will have the homecourt advantage.

Yup huge game it better be a packed arena, I actually kinda like our chances especially with the way CP3/D West have been playing. The key imo is if Okafor has a good game

I wish I could be there. I miss watching games at the Hive. It's going to be packed between the Heats and this fast start it will be rocking.

Hopefully Big Favors can continue his solid play that he's showed in the first 4 games tonight @ Orlando. Devin and Brook are also expected to play tonight as well.

And look who was at last night's Blazers/Thunder Game:

I couldn't help thinking that last night. What a renewed rivalry it would be if the Sonics never moved. Arguably the two best young teams, situated in the Pacific Northwest.

Re: 11/1-11/7 Game Discussion Thread

My boy Gilbert Arenas is playing tonight, hope the Knicks have cooled off some since last night. The Knicks guards were having trouble with DRose, hopefully JWall can do the same.

Re: 11/1-11/7 Game Discussion Thread

Soooo yea, some off the court news buuuuut...would any of you believe me if I told you that Kris Humphries is dating Kim Kardashian?

Yes, Kris Humphries of the New Jersey Nets.

Kris Humphries is an NBA journeyman who has played for four teams in his career.
Kim Kardashian is a dating journeywoman who has gone to bed with... more than four men in her romantic career.
Together, this pair comprised a table at the famous New York City eatery NOBU last night. No other details are available at the moment, but Humphries' first name, combined with his profession, make him a viable companion for Kim. Still, there's something about him that seems different than other boyfriends she's gone for.

Well done Hump. Well done.
