OKC is a whole different team in Durant back. Those guys are legit. I think Locke said it best when he said that their three best players are better then our best player. They are on another level. Not saying we can't get there, but we're not there yet.

Galanari.....then probably Faried and maybe this Mudiay kid.

Faried aint no offensive option.

It will be Gallinari/Mudiay/Chandler as their main 3 scorers. Nelson will provide a lot of scoring too. Nurkic/Fahried will be clean-up men.

I guess the appropriate comment would be if only the whole season was the preseason. It's not like Green is the first player Burke has had a good game against.

Burke had a pretty good last game going against Westbrook. Even better vs Lillard. He's had a pretty solid preseason.

Yeah, maybe. No matter how you want to slice it.....they aren't going to be good.

Wait. Did you just respond to yourself?
 
Found a stream.

This wheelchair basketball game is amazing. But does anyone else think the guy speaking is kind of weird? It'd be way cooler if they had Boler announcing it. This guy is talking about each guy's issues, like if they're an amputee as they're playing to the crowd. They're trying to lose themselves in a game of ball dude, c'mon.

I think they can be solid though. I really like Mudiay, and I really like Gallinari. Wilson is always pretty good too and Nelson is a good backup. If Fahried and Nurkic can progress pass just being big/energy bodies, they could surprise some teams.

They might score a little, but I don't think they could stop the Lady Utes.

Teams have a tendency to let up when they are up 20 and the other team can win a couple of quarters.

Jazz tied in 4th Q points when they challenged OKC and OKC was fighting back.

OKC beat us straight up. They are the better team. Im just saying that aside from the 1st it wasn't the beat down its being portrayed as. a solid OKC win, not a beat down.

I don't think we were ever going to win that game, but there were definitely times in that game where we played, and were executing well.

Snyder disagrees.

I agree with that to a point. I thought our execution was pretty bad. I'm not sure what happened to the offense. It was pretty much...spread the floor and let Hood or Burks go 1 on 1. There was no ball movement. It was pretty ugly. They look much better tonight and are playing with the pass.
 
Jazz up 52-37.

Denver missing several starters and rotation players (like 5ish) but Hayward only has 8 minutes (foul trouble)
