NBA: Thunder at Rockets - Game 4 sponsered by Bush League Tactics

[td4mvp2k]

Ibaka look like he just found out Congo is a country in Africa

[Monster1776]

You gotta give him credit... he sticks around.... thunderup... not so much

Bah, I love basketball, and it was too close of a game for me to go to sleep, I'd prefer to talk about basketball even if I have to take some knocks about how our team is young and makes rather stupid Harden level mistakes.

[lefty]

Dayum Chuck just told Kenny that if he hadn't been played with the great players on the Rockets he would have been cut. Kenny did not take kindly to it.

Chuck with the truth TBH

I'm with you... if you like basketball, you watch the games

Dude, your team is stacked and at this point should be struggling like this, even with their Alpha out.

Best in the West. Best point differential. Toys with teams at home.

[Monster1776]

Ibaka was granted citizenship in 2011 because he grew up as a teenager in Spain and they were tired of having Gasol being such a soft pussy on their basketball team. Plus I don't believe The Republic of Congo has a basketball team so it was in his best interests as well.

You underestimate how much a team can be hamstrung when they lose their starting point guard and they don't have a seasoned backup to take his place. The entire offense falls apart before it can even get started and get the ball into Durant's hand. Part of the problem is that Reggie is young and just doens't have the experience, the other is that we don't have someone to take over like Harden. Just a bad situation all around.

Also, as much as Harden crumbles when the opposing team gets its defense dedicated to stopping him, he's the best creator among the 3, tbh... When KD passes the ball in crunch time it's a bad sign...

HAHA TNT crew seems a little salty tonight. Charles talking to the boys in the back.

LOL! You do realize the Spurs had the best record in the NBA before Parker went out with the ankle injury, right?

[Monster1776]

Go to sleep you dirt bowl, bible thumping, arm pit loving, ing band wagon fan. See you in a couple rounds...

We'll see. Being that it's only 10 at night it's a bit early for my bed time, I'd say the same for you but I can imagine how hard it is to sleep in a hole with 20 other siblings and extended family with no AC because your alcoholic step dad can't find a job outside of home depot.

[100%duncan]

Thunderefs
Blowing easy layups
Just wait until they play a real team

Your team better nut up and take care of them Grizz tbh. You can beat this OKC team imho, CP3 will toast those ps

LOL! You do realize that's why we don't build our team around starters whose average age is about 35 and consistently get injured at the end of the year so we don't have to about not winning, right?

Hope so.... not convinced they can pull this one out in spite of Vinny, which is how it will have to be, seeing as how we all know he's not going to bench Chauncey or make any adjustments, tbh...

[Monster1776]

Next MJ

I realize foresight is a tad bit rare in these here parts but we'll see in a couple years or not if it turns out to be true.

[Killakobe81]

been singing the Ibaka praises since the series began... tonight he eats the ethiopian sandwich...

sup Killa, BTW...

Sup El congrats ...
If wade is less than a 100% and u guys make it to WCF against OKc your chances look good. Just keep in mind yall beat a dog Laker team. No excuses but we just aren't any good ...
But I would lay someoney on yall as a long shot best coach in the field best big and with all the injuries maybe best Pg Steph and Tony if healthy would be a fun.matchup.

If CP3 can't take advantage of our greenhorn guard than I'd be surprised and a bit disappointed.

Monster1776, come on down! You're the next contestant on "I completely missed the point"

Impressive attempt at talk. See you in the West Finals. I can't ing wait...

The healthy bit is a big if.

Spurs are looking up, but we're only as good as the injuries we have or don't have... we're all hoping every game for no injuries and what not... I also said Memphis was not going to be an easy out, and so far it's happening... they would be a tough matchup for us if Clippers can't kick them out.

[Clipper Nation]

If CP3 can't take advantage of our greenhorn guard than I'd be surprised and a bit disappointed.

Talking about Memphis, tbh.... it took almost a full year, but Lionel Hollins finally figured out the Clippers' predictable offense and their defense has completely shut us down.... I'm like 90% sure Vinny will not make any adjustments of his own or start giving more minutes to productive players, so we're pretty much fcked...

If the Clippers get their together and knock off Memphis in spite of Vinny, they should be able to beat a depleted OKC though....

Law school does an amazing job of teaching you to be clever and tacit about insulting people. Neither can I, either we win and I can merciless make fun of ya'll for failing to beat us a second straight year and if we lose I can point out how we backdoor sweeped yall last year and that the only reason we lost was because our starting pg whose top 5 in the league is out. Win win.
