because Kiwi is still rehabbing and they don’t want to alienate him, plus I think they want to show him that whenever he’s ready they will play him, giving him no deadline takes some mental pressure off him (if that’s an issue) but he’s not ready and he won’t be this season.

The refs were REALLY trying not to give Westbrook his 5th foul.

Eh.. idk. I don't expect him to either, but I think if he wasn't close to being ready they would've ruled him out. Doing 4 on 4 and working hard. Who knows anymore.. I also don't know about not alienating him when he isn't even showing up to the games.

You may be right tho..

you have to remember he has been “close to being ready”all season. “Sooner rather than later“ remember? Then there’s some setback etc. At this point unless he’s 100 % with not even a slight discomfort he won’t play. He won’t be back this season.

I remember the sooner rather than later being somewhat accurate. The close to ready tho is discouraging, since his 9 game appearance. I hate for this to be a throw away season because there's some opportunity this year.

I may be in denial lol gotta enjoy what we have at least

Patty is playing heaps better. But the man doesn't have the passing awareness. He often passes to where he thinks the player is.

F*ck. Game on TNT; game not on LP archives yet. Will have to watch it tomorrow or something.

Was Kawhi not at the game again? What's that about?

I will always love Manu, the surefire HOF but Dirk's foul and Game 6 say hi tbh.

He also "guarded" Fisher on 0.4

Ahh...Dynamic players. Aren't they great? Even on the decline at 40, he still finds a way to contribute unlike all the other one-dimensional bums on this team.

LaMarcus suiting up and playing through pain. Like the boss he is.

watched the game ... surprised LMA played and then we also won ... good stuff

Manu is a conundrum, wrapped in a riddle.

Those air balls were gold, but Draymond did one later on that was even better, lolllllllllllllll.

Didn't watch the game and checked the score hours later. Was pleasantly surprised that the Spurs won, and that Aldridge has a double-double.

Name 10 versatile players in the nba. I will wait

Just watching the game; six minutes into the 3rd; Thunder have been allowed to blatantly hit the ball with it on the rim twice (only scored once on it).

"Best refs in the world" -- David Stein (Stern)

Westbrook pushing Mills and they call the foul on Mills. :lmao At Regina Miller trying to say it was the right call cos of "the hook."
