Waiting for the rogues splurge. It's so funny to see a non playoff team cream over December victories

[Uriel]

GG.

[Raven]

wtf timmy seriously, just get to the bench

[timtonymanu]

Duncan just didn't have it today. Honestly, should have just sat out after his injury scare.

I hope the OKC plane goes down in flames.

No funnier than seeing a defending champ commit suicide over December losses.

yeah its totally westbrooks fault that the refs screw up sometimes. ill agree, this game was oddly and inconsistently officiated, but OKC executed and made shots, played good D. we played well for stretches, but not well enough to counter their best 3 players.

So now you're backing off your initial statement of him getting free throws for attacking the rim. Cool. They shot 2x the number of free throws as we did on our home floor. They could hack Duncan and fall on Bonner while he's shooting, but we can't touch Westbrook without a whistle. Of course that's going to make a team passive when you continually get whistled for every contact, our players can't afford to foul out when short handed.

"Screw up" = systematically hose the Spurs out of free throws whenever they play the Thunder.

Other angle had the foul, I thought it was jump ball originally too.

[timtonymanu]

Joseph loves playing the Thunder.

[Uriel]

Why the is Parker not in the game???

[james evans]

popovich fuked us out of another game. when the bench were playing good, he took them out and put in the starters who weren't doing . He does it every time.

[Cry Havoc]

just no... thats it one bad call and the refs are f the spurs?

One bad call doesn't give the other team 35 ing free throws on our floor while hacking our players continually and shooting jump shots all ing game.

[james evans]

cuz he can't guard anyone

So you think a head coach would ever decide that benching his starters is a legit tactic in the middle of a season, because of one game?

[timtonymanu]

We needed a chance to win.

[sammy]

What foul! WTF!

[Mal]

Pop throwing towel already ?

[Beaverfuzz]

Not having Bobo in the middle to "help" box out seemed a little odd.

[beirmeistr]

I am impressed with Cojo. He has balls.
