OKC @ Memphis, Sponsored By Kevin Durant's Mystery Tattoos

Bonner is a choking vagina and so is RJ.

Has Shane ever been a 20PPG scorer? Has Arthur ever not been a bench warmer? RJ has been to the finals with NJ. Overall, RJ's talent>Shane's. Sorry. That doesn't mean Shane didn't outplay RJ. They aren't mutually exclusive.

Thank you very much, . - Ernie Johnson haha

There's a reason I haven't said that. Because it's ridiculous.

I think when you stack the Spurs roster against the Griz roster, the Griz are currently more talented. It's obvious to everyone except Spurs fans in denial.

The funny thing about arguing "talent" is that it's so subjective it's the perfect loser's argument.

It's not subjective. I can prove it by every measurable statistic unless you thing actual stats are "subjective".

[NewJerSpur]

Ticky tack call imo.

[ogait]

Memphis always seems to do a good play after a timeout. That's the sign of a well coached team.

Westbrick is getting to the rim at will.

You cherry picked, and I was just showing you how ridiculous of a tactic it was.

Battier is so much better than RJ, btw. He's plays defense, and that alone is worth more than RJ has ever brought to the table anywhere he's been.

And you arguing that a finals appearance makes someone more talented defeats your whole point that "Just because someone gets far in the playoffs doesn't mean they're talented".

Don't know why the Thunder ever stop attacking the Grizz. It's the only way they can beat them.

Bringing choking and former 20 ppg scorers into the argument is a perfect example.

So the Grizzlies do have a weakness after all...

Thunder collectively saying: "Ta' with Durant's jumper at the top of the key, time to drive it down their throats."

[Bill_Brasky]

Awesome quarter from the Thunder, btw.

If Memphis was so talented, where have they been in recent years? They have had everyone except Zbo. With all that stacked talent they couldn't make the playoffs before ?

With the Spurs lack of talent they continued to make the playoffs and beat teams like the Mavs? Hmmmm.

Common sense says they've been rebuilding with a new coach. They didn't have Tony Allen, Shane Battier last year....you know, good defensive players that actually make a difference. Their coach is only in his 2nd season with this group. You act like they've had this same group of guys for 3+ years or something.

The Spurs have had the same core of guys and the same coach for god knows how long and you're comparing them to a Memphis team and a coach that's barely been together 2 seasons?

Please show me Duncan's stats that prove he's currently more talented than either Gasol or Randolph.

It's always been a weakness. It's just that the Thunder tend to go through long stretches where they dribble out the shot clock and take tons of bad shots.

Except RJ was a key player on the finals team in NJ and RJ was a solid defender.

Hitman out this mofo.

Gasol pushed Collison

Based on the last series, safe to assume in Memphis anything goes........for Memphis.

[benefactor]

Pretty dumb foul by Conley.

[DPG21920]

Bringing choking and former 20 ppg scorers into the argument is a perfect example.

So you want the stats from this year for all their players and their rankings?

Also, you never answered my question. If Memphis is so talented and they have had the same roster sans Zbo, why couldn't they make the playoffs before?

[Red Hawk #21]

Arthur with the Block of the night tbh

[WeNeedLength]

Westbrook is being the ballhog Durant is supposed to be.
