View Full Version : What if the Thunder put Durant on Dirk

And Dirk still goes off for 40 points and gets Durant on foul trouble? I've been hearing all day on ESPN calling for Scott Brooks to put Durant on Dirk but I think that would be fucking stupid.

Durant would get winded by having to work on Dirk on the defensive end, Dirk is crafty and would easily get Durant in foul trouble.

Let's face it, the Thunder have no one that can guard Dirk, if they double team him Terry, Peja and Kidd will knock down those wide open shots. Our boys in blue are playing very good basketball right now and I would be surprised if we don't win it all.

I hate wearing red all because of this, and it just brings back fucked up memories. I don't know why I was so fascinated with this lifestyle, but I do know that I'd probably be dead or in prison if I went any further :\

I don't think Durant would get winded, it's not like Dirk plays like Rip Hamilton or Ray Allen, constantly running around the court in circles, running around screens. He's 7 feet tall. It may be worth trying him on Dirk but if at any point he gets into early foul trouble (2 fouls within 1st quarter), they could change that immediately. I just don't think there's an answer for Dirk, he get's his shot off over anyone. The only person that can stop him is himself.

Durant is too weak and would get in foul trouble easily. Dumb idea, and the Thunder would deeply regret it if they tried.

hopefully the refs aren't in 'breath on dirk=2 FT' mode again tonight. 24 free throws? Seems like old times.

There's this thing in basketball called a foul. Look it up.

The Thunder should really consider putting Ibaka at center and Durant at PF in this matchup. Make Dirk or Chandler guard Durant or a guard.
