Opponents shouldn't be using the fouling strategy anyway. It never seems to work in their favor. Just makes the game longer and unwatchable.

there's times where it has worked. to say it never works is false.
i assumed stan left andre in the gm throughout the whole part? i've seen doc panic and pull deandre and the team went on a run as they attacked the basket.

i just dont understand why guys dont improve their shot. guys like timmy and karl malone were bad, especially when they entered, but they became decent where you couldn't just hack them. how many yrs have deandre/dwight been in the league?

It's all good man. May will be here soon enough, and then OKC will just go out and play and that will be that.

This is definitely the Thunders year.

I am totally serious tho bro!

Rolled Eyes were because I do not know what happened because I was 100% firm believer G State or SA was a lock!!

Not so sure now.

As much as I hate to say it, @a-friend

I actually think....ummmm....:smh:


The Thunder will win it all this year!!

I do not know if you wanted to gain any followers but you got one here. :nerd:

The more and more I watch them I am being convinced of this. I think I would rather them play the Warriors than Spurs. I do not know about you.

Be patient, it will.

Thing is, anybody who saw the Bulls/GSW game last night knows people fall short because they try and run with GSW and out score them, and you can't employ that strategy unless you are the Thunder.

Thunder literally gives no dambs about giving up 125 to GSW and the my sure AF ain't guarding anyone off the 3py line, much less Curry.

OKC can definitely out score GSW, and there is nobody n GSW that can do anything about it, especially in 7 straight games.

Sounds crazy but y'all will see my genius and understand my conviction soon enough. This is no troll move, it just comes down to who will score more, and that's OKC

you forget the warriors can play defense tho. something you acknowledge the thunder cant do.you arent going to score as easy as you do on other squads.

okc aint winning a chip with this team. it is what it is. keep on trying to convince yourself that okc can tho. its going to be funny to laugh at you in may.

Can't believe the spread for GSW-CHI was only 6 at one point yesterday. Easiest money I've ever made in my life. A team playing Pau Gasol, Mirotic at the 3, and McBuckets has no chance against the Warriors. The untouchable Rose held his own surprisingly or else this woulda been worse than the Cav game.
 
Who knows, maybe Golden State will lose their 2nd and 3rd best players come postseason and they may lose a series.

OKC is 7th in defensive efficiency as of now and are top 3 as of January. Not saying OKC is a better defensive team but they are trending up.

possible . no season ending  injuries have really hit any contenders this year . it could happen but speaking on things right now  if everyone is healthy come playoff time . gs aint losing to anyone. 
 
I didn't say the Thunder can't play defense.

I said they could care less about doing it. Big difference lakersman.

And GSW can defense all they want, there is nobody who can hold Russ/KD, on any team. Playoff Tony Allen locked KD up 2 years ago, locked him up G, and he still averaged a series high by a mile.

Kanter can't be guarded either.

I think it's a fallacy that simply because we don't see improvement on an athlete's game, it means they haven't been working on it. I honestly think it's as simple as "Some guys will only be ____  as good at ____ skill" in their careers. Rajon Rondo could spend ten years locked away in a gym, he's not going to shoot like Ray Allen. Could he improve? Of course, but maybe his improvement will only be minor.

And there's a difference between being a below average FT shooter and being as bad as Deandre/Andre/Dwight. And at least in Dwight's defense, he didn't have seasons where he was shooting in in the 30-40% range, at least he was in the 50s 

Tim ranged from 66% to 76% back down to 61% back up to 80% and so on, so while he made improvements and had some weak early years, he was never this bad where it became a gameplan to foul.
 
lol yea i do feel like gsw would mop them up light work con edison style.


russ and kd would literally have to drop 40 a night. def not happening.

agreed , its doesnt work like . You can practice something all you want , you got to have the talent to begin with, people have "ceilings" and no matter how much you practice you arent going to get better.

 i think its funny when people think its because they dont work on it. 
 
These ESPN2 shows spending toomuch time bout what to do about the hack -a- strategy ( apparently they went ham on Drummond lst nite).
How bout the league do nothing but post the records of games won by that strategy. It doesnt work. (Pistoms still won the game )
 
That Ninja Rose was BYKE but will go back to normal comes Friday against the Celtics...

Then Ninja Rose will be BYKE again against the Cavs on Saturday. 
 
Rant:

People always complain about the hack-a-shaq strategy, but how about the players that suck at FTs do a improve-your-FTs strategy
They got all the resources to improve yet cats like Deandre Jordan and Drummond shoot at paltry levels
Lazy :smh:
