What's new

Gamethread: OKC Thunder @ Utah Jazz. 7PM MST.

just love the writeups of the game ... most just talk about OKC's growing pains and give virtually zero mention to what the Jazz did to them
 
One quarter into the Minny-OKC game and some observations I've made.

1. Adams looks really nice against teams with no interior defense.
2. The Thunder are not very good. They're just not clicking at all.
3. The Wolves are going to be quite good once they figure out who the man is on this team.
4. This Wolves jersey is atrocious. Jeff Teague apparently wears number 0 on the back, but I just keep seeing a circle drawn by a child on the back.
 
Couple of takeaways fro yesterday.

- OKC came out really lazy, they had already penciled in the W.

- I ****ing love Udoh! His effort, focus and willingness to compete are fantastic! Could he be a top 5 defensive center already?? The FO deserves major props for this move!! While Im on the subject, Thabo was also great. He does all the small things really well and plays beautiful team basketball. We are lucky to have them both.

- DM looked much better. Ive said it before but Id prefer him to make plays out of the 2 spot instead of running the offense.

- AB was great on both ends. Its really important we get him and Favs in rhythm as soon as possible.

- When was the last time Rus didnt tear us a new one?? Enter Ricky R.

- My biggest take away was Favs hitting his FTs. Its something that always frustrated me and Ive always had doubts in his jumper just because his FTs were so inconsistent. Hope he can average 75% for the year.

- Ingles is flat out Ballin, his deep shot looks so so sweet atm.

2-1, on to the next.
 
How awesome would Melo be in JJ's role?

Yuck

Totally overrated player at this point in his career, and I think it's possible he ends up hurting OKC more than he helps, by taking shots away from better players. Plus, somebody asked him about coming off the bench in OKC and he made fun of them like they were an idiot to even suggest such a thing.
 
Okc just lost to Minnesota. Close game. Seems Minnesota may be good this year. Like for real and not just expectations of being good.
