Hopefully Marc Gasol has a big game today so the Pau/Marc jokes keep coming.

Also, whenever Dirk shoots the ball, I never think he's going to miss. Such a good shooter.

 

Me too, no matter the shot.

[illiniguy]

it's probably more that he's played over 1300 nba games... can't stay among the top 3 players in the league forever.

I get that. But at the All Star game, I know no defense, he was getting to the rim and was finishing with explosiveness. He doesn't seem to have that gear right now. That's what made me think he was hurt. Unless of course he hit a wall lately.

[Guest]

I think you're both right. He sprained his ankle and tweaked it a few times but I also felt like he looked less explosive even before the initial injury.

Is anyone surprised that KG has lost explosiveness? He's in the same age/minutes bracket as Kobe.

our offense is so dumb

Big men are going to get a lot more wear and tear on their bodies than a pretty boy shooting guard.

Shocked it took 2 seasons for Z-Bo to go back to being a clown.

[SpongeWorthy]

this is p hilarious

[Guest]

It's hilarious watching Westbrook dribble the ball for 20 seconds and then shoot the ball on nearly every possession down the stretch.

 

It's as if he just ignores the fact that he has Kevin Durant on his team.

[imb]

i love that scott brooks is confused why his offensive game plan of "set one screen" isn't working.

[SpongeWorthy]

what is okc doing

[imb]

Ahahhahaha, this is embarrassing.

[SpongeWorthy]

did you guys know that bill simmons and olbermann have beef

[imb]

man, we set a screen (one screen) for durant. I dont know why that didnt work

[SpongeWorthy]

I thought Zbo was gonna drain that

[SpongeWorthy]

seriously, what IS this

[imb]

our entire fourth quarter offense is "get the ball to kevin durant behind the 3-point line."

 

and then we surround him on the court with perkins and sefolosha. So he has to run through 3 defenders to get to the ball, which takes 18 seconds. So Westbrook just says f it and bricks a jumper or Durant takes a double-teamed 20-footer.

 

And brooks sits there looking stupid and yelling PLAY HARD HELP EACH OTHER.

[da bears]

CHOKE JOB

It's going to be hilarious when everyone blames Westbrook (and he deserves some of the blame) and no one says anything about Brooks' stupidity.
