And WCJ too of course
 
Flip killing it too
 
Didn't watch but wish Cody would have gotten more burn against his brother. I just an sick of 30+ minutes of Svi every night.

Looks like big games from Flip, Walt, and Hendricks

Still don't understand what Hardy sees in Svi that he doesn't see in Brice. Last year the Kid had better numbers than Svi across the board in less minutes. Sure he is not shooting well this year but it's hard to get into a rhythm when you don't get consistent minutes.
 
Wasnt able to watch the game so I cant really comment on it.

I mean I was literally sitting there with the game running in front of me, just wasnt able to actually watch it after about 5 minutes of action that included Nurkic being the featured guy with 50% usage.
 
Yeah... this was another masterpiece of dog ****. Anyone who found "bright spots" is either insane or their judgement has been compromised by the tank addiction.

I mean the only thing we really learned was how totally our offense depends on the insane gravity and spacing provided by Lauri, playing 35mpg. Keyonte, in particular, looked shell shocked against OKC 2nd and 3rd stringers when he wasn't able to find any space for his drives. 8/5/3 with 6 turnovers in 27 minutes as the clear #1 guy, against undrafted dudes and end-of-benchers? Ouch. When Key starts negotiating for his next deal, these are the types of games the FO is going to point to. And rightly so.

Please don't roll out the big scoring numbers for some of our guys. We had like three starters out there against the Thunder's scrubs in the 2nd half and still got out asses kicked. Yeah, Hendricks made some shots... and gave up an equal amount of points in the other end. Same goes for WCJ. That dude plays an infuriating brand of basketball. All offense.
 
Chet is one of my favorite players in the league and one day I hope he gets in a situation where he gets the shine more as an individual. He doesn’t seem like that kind of guy now, but maybe he’ll get bored and things will change.

Dominating a Nurk/Love C is nothing out of the ordinary, but I really think that if he stays healthy he is a multi All NBA type guy.

OKC has an embarrassment of riches.

Nothing out of the ordinary except he took the shots when they came and he made them tonight. But it is a reminder that he can actually take and make these shots, which has a lot of value in this league. He’s not a great player or anything right now, but I don’t see a need to banish him from the rotation.

He needs a lot of reps on defense.

Well, you're a tanker, so you'd say that.

"Reps" are not going to turn Hendricks into a solid defender. He doesn't have the footspeed (at least not now), toughness or smarts.

It’s funny how you use that word “tanker” like a slur.

You made it clear what you want in the other thread. You don’t care about the future, you just care about winning now. That’s cool, but understand it means we are talking about completely different things and your opinion is irrelevant to what I’m saying and vice versa. I’m focused on winning something substantive in the future, so please don’t include me in your pity party about the lack of winning right now. Seriously I don’t care.

Also, my post has nothing to do tanking. Maybe you should stop obsessing over tanking. You don’t need to insert your obsession into every conversation.

We're fully back to the bad Keyonte of old. No defense, no effort, visibly giving up on play after play. Bad body language, bitching all the time. Unless the dude consistently scores 25 with decent efficiency, he's no use to anyone.

Nah, that's too funny.

Dude. You just wrote "Lot of bright spots in this game." when it was all absolute horrid flaming pile of ******* all around.

The only thing you're focused on is dreams and hallucinations.
