Wednesday: “Oklahoma is OK”?

[Ed Hillel]

Good God

 

[ifmanis5]

Tommy point for Jaylen.

 

[Ale Xander]

Great effort from JB

 

[The Mort Report]

lol what was that Joe??!!

 

[ifmanis5]

Joe blocks shots, throws long passes.

 

[HomeRunBaker]

Whenever I see Jaylin Williams play I can’t help but think Rick Brunson isn’t his father.

 

[bankshot1]

Nit pick, but with 3 seconds why not take a TO to set up a decent play. Never know when you might need to run one.

Real solid half.

 

[Ale Xander]

Really? That’s the best they could come up with for a state slogan? Not ”Where the wind comes sweeping down the plain”? Or “The circus has been here twice”?

Got no chance against “The Hub of the Universe” or “The Athens of America” or “Sully! You suck!”

4:30 PDT start.

"Tornado Alley?"
"Tumbleweed Paradise?"
"North Texas?"

 

[TrapperAB]

Zinger having himself a half

17-9-3 with three blocks and a steal.

Giddey is the only guy doing much for OKC. Put me in the camp that thinks the kid is good.

 

[bankshot1]

“Even people from Texas look down on our state”

Q-Why doesn't Texas fall into the Gulf of Mexico.
A-Oklahoma sucks.

And 3 of 3 from 3. KP looks like he is having fun playing basketball.

 

[SteveF]

Hard to imagine Giddey staying in OKC, though. Should be interesting to see who grabs him. We'll probably see some player/pick movement this offseason that will make some places likelier landing spots. Atlanta if they trade Young, for example.

 

[Imbricus]

I will say, I'm glad the Celts don't have to run the OKC/Denver/Minnesota gauntlet to get to the finals. Whoever comes out of the West could be pretty beaten up by the time they reach the finals.

agreed—-he should be a primary ball handler. And that won’t happen in okc.

I know he played college ball there and maybe ownership forces it but presti is too smart to take on Trae’s act.

 

[benhogan]

bad Brown night

 

[SteveF]

I'm thinking more along the lines of Trae being traded to the Lakers or Spurs, opening up a spot for Giddey in Atlanta.

 

[SteveF]

6 liveball turnovers. No bueno.

Brown has been massaging his left hand all game and that might be an issue for him on these turnovers. My guess is they shut him down for a bit after this game.

 

[OnWisc]

Prescription drug commercials always show people participating in the most random activities.

 

[Mystic Merlin]

OKC handed three points on a travel

 

[OnWisc]

Oh, fuck off.

 

[teddykgb]

That possession a minute ago where PP actually initiated and Tatum popped and drive quickly …. Where has that been for the last 3 seasons?

 

[ifmanis5]

Al thanks OKC for giving him a year off by being good tonight.

 

[Mystic Merlin]

Al thanks OKC for giving him a year off by being good tonight.

Keeping them above water on offense in this quarter

 

[OnWisc]

Someday they’re going to get rid of the refs, and it will be like when they did away with smoking on planes or exact change toll booth buckets where, after having been around forever, the moment they were gone it was hard to believe they ever existed.

 

[SteveF]

Foul discrepancy is massive.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Hey Joe, where you going with that Hauser in your hand?

 

[Euclis20]

Some crazy time travel shit going on here. It's the first half of the season when the Thunder have the ball, and the second half when Boston has the ball.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Samuel Buckets Esq

When Tatum, PP, and Hauser get on the break it’s beautiful

 

[dhellers]

is tatum acting on a realization that Hauser is a better 3pt shooter than he is?

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

When Tatum, PP, and Hauser get on the break it’s beautiful

The whole sequence from the Armband P steal to the movement to the bucket was exquisite.

 

[ifmanis5]

CJM back to the playoff rotation tonight so far.

For just the 5th time this season, a Celtic opponent has made at least 20 free throws. Boston allows only 13.5 FT per game by opponent, lowest in NBA history.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Joe is giving Sam a tough time

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Tatum over Chet? Wut?

 

[OnWisc]

Not really helping PP there.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

That KP go at Holmgren was something

 

[wade boggs chicken dinner]

is tatum acting on a realization that Hauser is a better 3pt shooter than he is?

Or maybe not.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

KP turnstile

 

[patinorange]

Stop dribbling

 

[SteveF]

Maybe moving screen on Porzingis is the idea here?

 

[PedroKsBambino]

Is there some question that’s a foul?

 

[Mystic Merlin]

What is the point of this challenge?

 

[wade boggs chicken dinner]

Tatum over Chet? Wut?

Think JT said to himself, "Let's see if I can get this over him."

 

[HomeRunBaker]

Is there some question that’s a foul?

KP threw his hip into him on the screen

 

[bankshot1]

He didn't run over Tatum hard enough?

 

[PedroKsBambino]

KP threw his hip into him on the screen

don’t think so. The contact on Tatum is the clear foul theee

 

[HomeRunBaker]

They got that call right.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Think JT said to himself, "Let's see if I can get this over him."

All for him or Jaylen trying. More importantly it worked so it was genius.

 

[HomeRunBaker]

don’t think so. The contact on Tatum is the clear foul theee

Yeah I was responding to why Daigneault challenged. We have Adv of slo-mo
