Thunder at Blazers game thread

[Venti Quattro]

The two most-proclaimed challengers to the Lakers' throne during the off-season battle tonight.

Blazers by 10. Or probably more.

[lil_penny]

Should be a good game.. Go blazers!

[DJ Mbenga]

durant was 0-10 from 3 yesterday. if he somehow shoots worse than that i will be shocked. the thudner arent sneaking up on people anymore

[DeadlyDynasty]

how tall is jeff green?

[hitmanyr2k]

Damn, Aldridge went lights out against the Bulls and he's picking up where he left off.

[DeadlyDynasty]

Looks like KD found his shot

[Giuseppe]

Everything looks like Oriental firedrills contrasted in the shadow of the Lakers.

[Venti Quattro]

Blazers in control at half. The Thunder let up to end the half

[Killakobe81]

I am not down yet on OKC ...but i did not expect #2 in West nor MVP for durant. Though if i had to bet, I would bet on Durant 4 MVP way before I would of thrown even $5 on the Thunder finishing that high. they finished 8th in the West and choked their chance to move up in the last 5 games. Yes, they plyed us tough for a while ...but everyone that was projecting an 8 to 2nd run in one off season with the same EXACT roster almost is pretty dense.

Durant is the newest NBA star but these so-called contenders are propped up every year based on some type of playoff success and it never comes to fruition. The hornets was the "it" team in 2008 and have not won a series since. Denver was last years and got rolled out of the playoffs by the Jazz whom the lakers swept. This year it's OKC and they will lose in the first round to the spurs, Mavs or Hornets ...

The playoffs are dominated by veteran teams not young teams with almost no playoff experience ...

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Batum is Duran't doppleganger. Expect that to be a key matchup should these teams ever face each other in the playoffs.

[Killakobe81]

Shouldnt matter. if he is as good as I think he is, he will find a way to score and win.

[TheMACHINE]

Andre miller with 10 assists and has been on the bench for a long time now. Smh

[ElNono]

Watch Portland getting every call at home at the end of the game.

[Killakobe81]

Game getting better

[BUMP]

holy shit, imho just realized this was on TNT, tbh

[ace3g]

Westbrook with 2 big baskets

[DeadlyDynasty]

westbrook can't miss

[ElNono]

Loos like this one is going the distance...

[ElNono]

Will KD choke another game winning shot?

[DesignatedT]

Batums ability to play defense and the emergence of Anderson and Neal he sure looks like he would be the perfect fit here if we could have gotten him over Hill, although I do love George.

[ElNono]

Blazers by 10. Or probably more.

Quattro with the goods... :lol

[ace3g]

big FT from Ibaka

[DeadlyDynasty]

miller time

[DesignatedT]

yep...... okc is way to small with just ibaka down there. been killing them all game.

[ace3g]

after a Roy baseline jumper missed, Miller gets the O board and gets a layup, Blazers up 2 with 18.4 sec

[ElNono]

Will KD choke another game winning shot?

[BRHornet45]

time for Durant to show us if he is legit

[DeadlyDynasty]

holy shit!

[ace3g]

wow, crazy play there

[DeadlyDynasty]

best game of the year so far

[DesignatedT]

batum ftw tbh

[ElNono]

Saved by Ibaka.... :lol

Watch now the refs ruin this calling a BS foul on OKC

[ElNono]

Was it Batum?

[ace3g]

Ot

[DesignatedT]

what a great play mcmillen

[ElNono]

lol Roy

OT here we go

[DesignatedT]

im about to put a bet on this overtime... who should i take?

[BRHornet45]

what a horrible ass final shot attempt by Portland ... why even bother?

[hitmanyr2k]

That's the best shot Roy could get with all that room to work with?

[ElNono]

They practiced that shot all week...

[DesignatedT]

fuck it, I took portland.

[DeadlyDynasty]

Camby with a beast block

[ElNono]

Aldrige kinda fizzled out atbthe end here

[DeadlyDynasty]

lol KD

[ace3g]

Durant has played a combined 80+ minutes the past 2 nights

[DeadlyDynasty]

so Harden has a pulse afterall...

[ElNono]

Camby is a great defender, but he's such dead weight on offense. zombie sonics dont even guard him.

[hitmanyr2k]

If the Thunder ever get a legit big man they'll be set. The only thing is where the hell do you get a good big man these days? :lol

[ElNono]

If the Thunder ever get a legit big man they'll be set. The only thing is where the hell do you get a good big man these days? :lol

They should have gone for Damp. They just need him on the defensive end.

[DeadlyDynasty]

batum doing his Peja impression

[ElNono]

lol that pass

[The Gemini Method]

OKC came back when they inserted Ibaka Flocka Flame...

[ElNono]

Neither team look like they wanna win this

[hitmanyr2k]

Wow...some horrible playmaking on the last few possessions for both teams.

[DeadlyDynasty]

Durant brick city

[ducks]

big d for the thunder

[DesignatedT]

fuck

[DeadlyDynasty]

aldridge fouled out

[ElNono]

3 points total in OT?

[ducks]

Durant brick city

he has rested 37 seconds
no legs he should hhave dunked it

[BUMP]

The stinky paki may have been right about Durant?

[ElNono]

Portland needs a Rudy's 3 right now

[DeadlyDynasty]

he has rested 37 seconds
no legs he should hhave dunked it

ducks I can't understand a fucking word you say

[BRHornet45]

Durant just simply doesn't have what it takes ... damn good player, but FAR FAR from "great"

[ElNono]

ducks I can't understand a fucking word you say

He said "Portland timeout"

[DeadlyDynasty]

tbh Westbrook is the stat for OKC right now

[IronMaxipad]

not this fuckin comercial again :lmao:lmao

[DeadlyDynasty]

He said "Portland timeout"

k thx...i lost my english-to-ducks dictionary

[BUMP]

I never bought into the Durant hype.

He's not in Kobe-LeBron status just yet. Seems like there's far too many times where he's invisible and you hardly even know he's on the court.

[ElNono]

Just do it.... for the children :cry

[BRHornet45]

Durant is outstanding, but he only put up the numbers he did last season because of the league pushing him to the top. The amount of free throws he received last year was downright embarrassing for the sport and ridiculous.

[ElNono]

Westbrook > CP3, tbh

[IronMaxipad]

briiick

[DeadlyDynasty]

wow...what a save

[ElNono]

Nice save by Green

[BUMP]

It's hard to hate a guy with character like Durant but he's pretty overrated

[ducks]

portland is choking

[ElNono]

McMillan designing another masterful play like the one that ended regulation...

[ElNono]

"Give the ball to Roy, then GTFO"

[hitmanyr2k]

McMillan designing another masterful play like the one that ended regulation...

lol...they need to go for a quick two hopefully and not the three. Too much time left.

[ducks]

if durant had a big you durant haters would see how good he is

[ducks]

"Give the ball to Roy, then GTFO"

so he will choke

[DeadlyDynasty]

[HarlemHeat37]

I can't even count how many arguments I've gotten in with Spurs fans over Durant in the last year or so, about how overrated he is..I'm gonna have to do some bumping this season..

Durant is like the anti-clutch too..he shot 35% in 82games.com's clutch stat last year, one of the lowest marks you'll see from a superstar player..

[ElNono]

Wesley chokes

[DeadlyDynasty]

big win for OKC

[IronMaxipad]

Westbrook :king

[ElNono]

lol tschlong

[DesignatedT]

lmao for the tie!!!! wait no thats a win for the thunder.

[BUMP]

For the tie "OOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHH"

.....excuse me they were up by 4 :lmao

[DeadlyDynasty]

lol kevin harlan

[HarlemHeat37]

I also don't really see the big deal about Portland..they're way too soft, and Roy is overrated..

Wow, even Harlan is choking tonight..

[ace3g]

commentator: for the tie....ohhhh!!!!.....oh wait my fault, I didn't know what the score was, lol

[hitmanyr2k]

:lol :lol Kevin Harlan not knowing what the score was

[Chieflion]

Westbrook is the player of the game, imo. Grabbed all of the big rebounds, hit all his freebies and carried the Thunder in the 1st half.

tbh, I think he's cursed by my TV viewing presence. It seems like everytime I watch him, like tonight and the playoffs last year, he sucks balls yet plays God-like in games I don't watch like the Olympics

portland might be good if oden could play

thunder proved in the playoffs they belong

[IronMexican]

That new shtick BUMP is putting out is kind of annoying.

playing in playoffs and regular season games

Yeah.. He thinks he's the shit and he's fucking overrated

He strikes me as a poor man's Mitch Richmond.

[ducks]

roy reminds me alot like james
no titles
but act like are all that

[BUMP]

anyone rememba det time where ducks wrote like a 5 paragraph gramatically correct analysis of some playoff series? Only to be revealed later that he copied and pasted it from some site? :lmao

ducks' finest hour, tbh

[IronMexican]

I think even ducks realizes that no one would believe he wrote it. He just most likely forgot to add the link. It is ducks, brah.

[HarlemHeat37]

Ducks is easily the best poster on ST, tbch..

Whoever is behind that sits behind his computer and laughs at all of us every single night..

[BUMP]

It's funny how we all treat him like he's really retarded yet it's pretty obvious that it's the best troll job of all time

[HarlemHeat37]

:lol

It really is the beauty of it..the man pushes it just far enough for you to believe it's a troll job, but he still gives you the possibility that he's either retarded or some straight immigrant that has no idea how to communicate properly..

One of the great mysteries of my time, tbh..

[BUMP]

srsly. Definitely one of the most overlooked schticks ever on Spurstalk

I'm getting to the bottom of this shit

[ducks]

really?

[lil_penny]

just got back from the game.. damn it was crazy! too bad we couldnt get the win, westbrook killed us tonight!

[angelbelow]

Wow westbrook is amazing. He sealed the deal tonight.

[TDMVPDPOY]

that chewbaka fella is the 2nd coming of theo ratliff?

[HarlemHeat37]

Me too. He's the new TMAC. Just shut the fuck up already.

Where you been, kid?..you picking real life over us?..

[Killakobe81]

Sucks that Westbrook is from UCLA..

fuck you and whatever shit-berg college you went to ... LOL

[Giuseppe]

Bad loss for Portland. Indicative of their long standing MO.

They'll never learn.

[tlongII]

It was a tough loss, but not entirely unexpected. We just lost 3 players and 2 of them would have seen minutes in this game. Add to that the fact that OKC really needed this game and it didn't set up well for us. It was a hard-fought game and we came out on the short end of the stick. These things happen. The good thing is that Przybilla will be back in a couple of weeks and Oden will be back within days after. They're both practicing and they look good. When we have all of our front court there's no freaking way the Lakers will be able to beat us! :lol
