[MP.Trey]

Russell Westbrook vs. Langston Galloway

[hawkfan]

Russell Westbrook vs. Langston Galloway

Galloway has played well, screwing up the tank.
Knicks finally got a point guard with good speed and quickness.

[Thunderfan86]

I hope we don't come out and play like crap tonight

[AnaheimLakers24]

Fixed.

JK. Actually wanted to watch KD vs Melo.
He should contact bran. He was only out 2 weeks with that

[AnaheimLakers24]

[Cowboy Thunder]

Hard to come in from grilling outside tonight. 79 degrees in beautiful Oklahoma City.


How's the weather in the Northeast?

Thunder up!

[KDthunderup]

****ing awful

[Jef]

pathetic display thus far

[Natureland]

Turned the game on and get graced with a Perkeem sighting. :bowdown:

Also, am I the only person who wishes Brooks would find a way to not play Waiters and Jackson together?

[Jef]

i would like to see more westbrook/reggie combos in the rotation, with adams and even collison in the game as much as possible with those two. with the way those two often go to the basket and dump the ball off, we need hands and finishers. perkins just isn't either of those things.

would love to see a westbrook/reggie/morrow/ibaka/adams lineup at some point with durant out. a lot of size and defense, and morrow to space the floor.

brooks should basically chain kendrick perkins to dion - even if waiters drives, he sure as shit isn't passing.

[Thechosen1]

someone needs to help cleanthony early and get him off the knicks...this shit is insulting

[Cowboy Thunder]

Feels weird seeing Cole Aldrich play.

[Cowboy Thunder]

Has he done anything this year?


A lot of us thunder fans wanted to draft him instead of the late 1st round d-league guy we drafted.

[Jef]

i think Westbrook is absolutely exhausted right now. not showing that explosion as often, and even on the pull up jump shots he is kind of floating forward. one of the most insane things about him, athletically, is how he stops on a dime and usually rises straight up.

would love the thunder to blow this one out and get westbrook a little rest, but doesn't look like it's headed that way right now.

[Thunderfan86]

Kendrick Perkins is the suck

[bluechox2]

durant held scoreless

[Thunderfan86]

durant held scoreless
Yep, he sucks :confusedshrug:

[Natureland]

:biggums: :biggums: :biggums:

[MellowYellow]

Westbrook lucky he didn't get a charge called on him, quit crying foo!!

[Thunderfan86]

Westbrook just chucking his little heart out

[Thechosen1]

no because derek fisher never plays him

[dabigbaws]

lance thomas is killing us :facepalm

Player you traded?

[dabigbaws]

Player you traded?

ya

[navy]

Presti has destroyed this roster.

[Jef]

pathetic performance.

had a chance in the 4th early, but the failure to pull away in the 2nd and 3rd quarters doomed this game.

what in the ****ing hell is wrong here. did presti in fact destroy the roster? is it brooks? is it the players?

[TylerOO]

Dion Waiters...what a steal for OKC...

:roll:

[imdaman99]

:lol Lance Thomas ends the game right in Ibaka's face. How overrated is Ibaka?

[Thunderfan86]

I'm so sick of this phagg0t ass team, this phagg0t ass coach, and the so called phagg0t ass superstars. FVCK THIS TEAM!


We just lost to the fvcking Knicks. Shit is unbelievable

[dabigbaws]

:lol Lance Thomas ends the game right in Ibaka's face. How overrated is Ibaka?

he is ****ing awful. so dumb

[navy]

Dion Waiters...what a steal for OKC...

:roll:
Traded away the GOAT Thomas.

[Graviton]

Idk if Thunder without Westbrook/Durant would even be a decent D-League team. So many worthless scrubs that can't do ANYTHING outside rebounding/defense. Why is Perkins still in the league, why is Roberson starting and playing 15 minutes to put up 0/0/0, who is Perry Jones? Why did they trade for Dion when they already have exact same player in Reggie?

[imdaman99]

Rookie coach Derek Fisher outcoaching Scott Brooks :applause:

[ArbitraryWater]

Goatbrook with foatee

Chucking like it was no tomorrow.....he was on that Kobe shit. Not even thinking about passing. But I guess I would do the same thing if I was surrounded by a bunch of no offense playing ass scrubs. Fvck this team

[niko]

Durant going to look awesome on washington. When's the Reggie Jackson salary dump?

[Cowboy Thunder]

Worst loss in Thunder history?

[Twiens]

Melo > Russ

Dude is ruining the Knicks tank though....

[I<3NBA]

Also melo is a fat loser and I hope he gets a career ending injury

Presti is losing the locker room.

ouch. I feel for you bro

[bdreason]

Can't afford these kind of losses out West. This team seems incapable of functioning without both KD and WB on the court.

Bad roster. Bad coaching.

[dunksby]

This team is nothing without KD, fire Brooks and ship out Reggie Jackson's toxic ass out of there. Get a decent PF who can defend the post and doesn't think about blocking everything all the damn time. Finally we need a leash for Westbrook, he is out of control trying to emulate KD's last year heroics...

[Eric Cartman]

Who was the poster that bet on the Knicks? :lol

Well done.

I been saying for years the Thunder need to trade Ibaka and everyone thought I was crazy :facepalm

Don't need to trade Ibaka so bad as Reggie, Ibaka is very useful against Spurs and LAC, he has many weaknesses that can be covered by a good backup.

[keep-itreal]

It's time to blow it up :roll:

They chose Ibaka over Harden and this is what happens:roll:

[dannywpt]

Holy hell, the Thunder are terrible. Just awful, awful basketball through the entire game.

Westbrook, Waiters and Jackson are all egoistical iso chuckers, and the rest of the team can't do anything but defend and rebound at a mediocre rate. No one on the team but Morrow can shoot 3 pointers at more than 30%.

This roster is TERRIBLE and they play awful chucking iso offense with no ball movement, even for their low iq backup guards. The only reason they don't lose by 30+ every night is Westbrook and Durants pure talent.

Thunder are the true anti-Hawks.

[bagelred]

Being dead serious here, I actually thought Thunder/Knicks should have done a Kendrick Perkins for JR Smith/Samuel Dalembert trade. Salaries matched up.

Knicks get expirer they needed without giving up Shumpert. Thunder get an upgrade (?) at center and get the vastly underrated JR Smith (who is better than Waiters). And Thunder would have saved a first round pick they gave to Cavs. Could have just given Knicks a 2nd rounder.

I don't know why that didn't happen. Much better for OKC and NYK instead of that 3 way.

[Darius]

OKC in big trouble.

They need to go 26-10 for rest of year to hit 49 wins (8th seed last year).

They have to get it together. They can not afford a loss to the Knicks for crying out loud.

[raprap]

Teams are catching up on how okc plays. Talent will only take you so far. They need a system, badly. Iso system will never work.

[dannywpt]

Presti is losing the locker room.

Unless his players are actually disappearing from his team, the GM can't really lose a locker room.
