The Thunder are such a disaster. I know they've had injuries but I can't believe they're actually going to miss the playoffs with that roster.

Maybe that will finally get Scott Brooks fired.
 
Scott Brooks will probably buy himself another year of coaching the Thunder because of the injuries. The guy is a disaster of a coach and to think that guys like Mike Budenholzer and Steve Kerr probably would have jumped at the chance to coach this roster.

OKC is costing itself Durant. First the Harden trade, then the lack of development among the people they traded for, then the Waiters trade and the inevitable departure of Reggie Jackson. I mean, they need to start doing something to make him want to stay.

You don't choose b/w two top 5 players still in their prime, you get a coach and a staff that is worth a damn to instill a system and continue developing the young talent they have to play as supporting role players with Durant & Westbrook. As its been mentioned, can you imagine Kerr or Bud's staff with OKC? It would be game over in the West.

Where did Mike Budenholzer play his college ball?

I bet @jleves knows!

You think Westbrook is a top five player?
 
So Napier starts, plays the first 7-8 minutes, shoots 1/2, 3 points, probably should have had an assist on a missed shot. Hits the bench and I dont think he returned until the Heat are down 20+ points in the 4th quarter. Whiteside has like 10 points and 17 rebounds at the HALF, and barely plays in the second half. Even Hubie Brown was questioning why Napier/Whiteside sat.

Because you can't bench Chalmers or Cole when they're shooting a combined 4-21.
 
Drummond with a double-double at halftime. 12 pts, 11 rebounds.
 
Bazz with the start. Drummond with 13 and 13. Gordon was a DNP- what's going on with him? Tomorrow it's Rudy and CV
 
Bazz's last four games he has shot the ball very poorly but he has 19 assists and only 3 TOs. That's a step in the right direction.

Yeah it seems he doesn't want to step on anyone's toes and just run the offense and not look for his shot. I think bc of wade and bosh being in his team. If he can't play like he wants Id like to see him on the knicks lol. But good thing is that everytime he passes to bosh its usually an assist.
 
Pistons at hornets tonight. Up 5 with 9 left in the second.
