Game Thoughts: Spurs @ Sonics - Nov. 25

[telecomguy]

I have more confidence in Parker when he is about to shoot a mid-range jumper than what I had a few seasons ago. He has improved, but he is nowhere near Nash. That guy can shot.

5. Steve Nash, Suns guard -- Some people ask what's wrong with the Suns, but they have a great record (11-2), and in my view he's the whole reason that they have it. Still hasn't missed a free throw this year (36-for-36) and is shooting 55 percent from the field.

Was he wearing his mask?

Then, he's affected by it, or just thinks so.

Great points, timvp. I agree the defense sucked azz, but thankfully we were draining threes left and right in the first just to keep up. In the second half we started out the first few minutes with better D, but then went back to the poor showing from the first half. I don't know what was up with Bowen. He definitely dogged it last night. In the end, a win is a win, no matter how you get it. Lots of room for improvement. We'll see how they respond tonight.

Kevin Durant might have had his best game as a pro, however he was far from impressive. He scored mostly due to bad Spurs defense and he just doesn’t look nearly as smooth as I expected him to look at the NBA level.

I don't necessarily agree with your view of Durant, but I saw this on Bill Simmons site this AM. Thought it was interesting.

"Note to all the media people picking apart Kevin Durant even though he's 19 years old and he's been in the league for exactly four weeks: According to this Seattle Times feature, Durant lives with his mom and plays video games with 10 year old kids, and yet, we're seeing articles with headlines like "Analyzing Durant's Early Struggles." Really? Did you expect Durant to light it up right away as a 19 year old kid playing out of position on a terrible team that doesn't have a single decent point guard? We're not giving him a couple of months to adjust? Talk to me on April 1st."

Seeing Durant struggle should just make everyone appreciate how fricking amazing LeBron really is.
