Parker vs....Royal Ivey.

[eyeh8u]

who???????????

name sounds like a female pornstar tbh

i thought thats what jay z named his kid

[coyotes_geek]

to OKC playing Royal Ivey. I hope it happens. Lots and lots of Royal Ivey.

I think you mean the 16th. Ivey played 24 minutes, had 6 points, 0 rebounds, 0 assists, 0 steals, 2 personal fouls and finished with a -12. I'm praying he gets heavy minutes.

BTW, blue means sarcasm. It's for people like you that don't seem to catch it.

[Cry Havoc]

What's to lose really?

Game 3?

[CosmicCowboy]

Durant is 6'11

Blue print in here denotes sarcasm. He was making fun of the OP.

[thunderfan]

Yeah, Fisher really kicked Parker's ass there in Game 2. If I were a SA fan I'd also hope that Brooks pulls him for a guy like Ivey.

[ShoogarBear]

UT homer here, too, by the way.

Problem is if you go small and spread the floor, you need shooters that can knock down jumpers on the kick and drive. Fisher, as old as he is, keeps defenses honest because you can't double off of him without him making you pay. Ivey and Sefalosha, no matter what they give you on the defensive end, they hurt you on the offensive end, and make it easier for the Spurs to throw more defenders at Durrant and Westbrook. And besides, how much are either of those players going to stop Parker in the long run? If he figures those guys out, then he still scores, but the Thunder are easier to defend.

OKC has its big three, but it needs a Danny Green, a Tiago Splitter, and a Gary Neal. Role players that can knock down shots and defend a little (maybe Neal not so much on the defense).

Thabo leads the team in 3 pt %. He's not shooting at a high volume but shoots it enough and at a high enough % that he's not an offensive liability. Ivey shoots the 3 at 34% this year on 53 attempts. Not stellar but a higher % than Fisher this year

[freetiago]

lololol okc fans no different then those other ones
i posted this would happen before the series went underway

jazz fans clinged to derrick "walking triple double" favors
clips had eric godsoe
now okc has roval "tony stopper" ivey

im sure miami fans will be complaining that norris cole or eddy curry should be getting huge minutes

[Whisky Dog]

Since Parker is the starter I'm guessing Ivy would have to steal a few minutes from Westbrook unless you're gonna play them together and leave Harden on the bench. Lineup of Westbrook, Ivy, Thabo, Durant, Serge and you'd see the Spurs collapse the paint on everyone except Durant so fast they'd bump heads. That would be a terrible offensive unit and not a great defensive one either.

[Obstructed_View]

I'm sure it's been said before, but I really hope Scott Brooks allows the fans and the TV stations to make his coaching decisions for him. It'll all be over by this weekend if that's the case.

[thunderfan]

Ahhh nevermind on Ivey. I was drunk. Let's stick with Thabo.
