What's new

Oklahoma City Thunder (25-19) @ Utah Jazz (29-16) - 7 PM MT

If Exum could play at this level consistently, I could see us using this lineup to possibly speed things up and change pace. You have speed at nearly every position.
 
holy what was that burks shot. lean back to dodge the big, hold it in his hands for an eternity to dodge westbrook help, then still make the bank
 
Damn. Just saw that Burks play. Damn.
 
Just think. Rodney Hood is hurt too. His shooting would be big tonight.

No, he really doesnt. He'd be better off trying to attack the basket and kick it out. He needs to watch some Rondo game film to see what to do when teams sag off you.

I get your point. I don't think Exum is good enough with his handle to navigate tight quarters to drive and kick with people sagging off him though. I still think he has to shoot it, and if he doesn't, then maybe he can't be in the game until either his handle or shot gets better.
 
We are so much better than them. Westbrook has almost 30. Play like absolute dog ****. No fire, careless turnovers, missed free throws out the wazoo and we lead somehow.
 
Great move by diaw against adams
 
Not necessarily disagreeing but you got to let him shoot that when he's wide open right? Anyone else we'd expect the same. He's got to get confidence in his shot.

I'd rather him try to drive it if they are sagging off him. Try to make something else happen. If we want an open Exum 3, we can run our offense for 13 more seconds and throw it to him at the 3pt line, he will always be open. The message you send to the defense by taking those shots is that you can force the offense into this shot whenever he gets the ball.
 
Gotta hold on here. Then tomorrow, we gotta play with ultra-laser focus on d. Can get to just 2.5 games of the 3 seed if so with four straight then coming at home.
