OT: Went to the Thunder game last night

[CTGoonie]

Couple thoughts:
1. XL developers need to check their arena before updating the XL. That place is very nice and holds 18k in roughly the same size space. Very loud too.
2. Russell Westbrook is an animal. 4th triple double in a row.
3. A little strange to see a dude lead the arena in a prayer just prior to the anthem.
4. Most annoying thing about NBA games is the ADD music. I don't think they played any song longer than 5 seconds.
5. Jeremy Lamb got a DNP but I did get this pic.

I really can't believe what Westbrook has become. I never really paid attention but damn the kid is unguardable, explosive and high flying.

He is one of a handful of NBA players I would pay to see in person.

As for Lamb he just needs to study and learn from Westbrook (and Kevin) as much as he can. He's got two All NBAers, hopefully something will rub off.

IMHO the guy needed to seriously pound the weights from day 1. With his length and touch, if he added 20-30 pounds of muscle, he would have been closer to an NBA body. Would have taken 2-5 years, accounting for the season, but it would have made a huge difference in his game, IMHO.

jealous you got to see westbrook. he is on a ridiculous tear, only rivaled by the GOAT and Pistol ( 4 straight triple doubles)

that's one thing I really like about FedExForum...it doesn't feel cramped.

We here in CT like our concourses tight and are bathroom lines looooooooong

^ at the Forum, they put the restrooms in alcoves between concession stands (see pic)...that way, even if a small line forms, it won't disrupt the flow of people.

Well he did put up 14 in about 12 minutes the game before, then didn't get a second of play this game. Brooks has Lamb firmly planted on the bench unless both Durant and Westbrook are out. He needs to leave OKC as soon as possible.

Hartford Civic Center should consider a Pizza Alley, since we are famous for it.

Perhaps allow the Boneyard to select the restaurants. It may take us 10 years but still we are experts.

Yeah I'm just saying he better leave a better player than coming in, beyond experience. That's just too much talent around you not to take advantage of day in and day out of practice. Those two are doing all the right things, especially Westbrook with his injury. If Lamb does leave, and I hope he does, it would be a grave mistake to not have gotten something everything out of them (work ethics, habits, meals, off season routine, etc.).

Similarly, Bazz has Wade as well.

This thunder team is on the verge of greatness, lamb should stay until he gets a few rings. Presti could have easily added him in that RJ trade, so I think he still values him to an extent...but who knows
