He made 2 out of 4 and came back in with a key block on Harden. I don’t see how he can’t improve on free throws but obviously he can’t.
You expecting upsets for all but one game?
And KLove got fouled on a 3. You’re right there should be no reason to blame a game on the refs. They should make those two easy calls. Refs shouldn’t decide games
Pretty great games overall. Really solid win for the Thunder. After watching the Lakers and Minnesota game, I am ever less impressed with Minnesota than I was before. They're so frustrating to watch because they have so much talent.

Yeah, they let the Lakers who were without Ingram, Ball and Lopez stay in the game waaaay too long. They turned it into a 15 point win when the Lakers ran out of gas at the end, so the game was much closer than the final score.
I kept expecting the Wolves to turn it into a blowout, but they just never got much separation until the very end. I agree with what the Sir Charles, etc. were saying last night, they are most effective when they play fast,
What do you think Kuzma's ceiling is. Everytime I watch him I kind of expect him to regress a bit, but he's been really impressive. I look at him and kind of see a better shooting version of Rudy Gay. If he turns into that I think he'll be a fringe All-star type player.
He's just like Phil Jackson.Yeah, they let the Lakers who were without Ingram, Ball and Lopez stay in the game waaaay too long. They turned it into a 15 point win when the Lakers ran out of gas at the end, so the game was much closer than the final score.

Thunder could be a tough out in the playoffs.
Danny Granger, Gay, Shareef Abdur Rahim....It's hard to say with him honestly. Like you, I keep waiting to see some sort of regression, but it doesn't seem to be happening. So far, he's managed to put himself in the ROY conversation. I think it's still Simmons to lose, but if Simmons gets hurt or falters later in the season, Kuzma is definitely in position to slip in and steal it.
A better shooting Rudy Gay/fringe all star is likely his ceiling. We'll see though. I think we'll know more over the 2nd half of the season and into next season.
He spent 4 years in college, so he is and should be more developed than the younger rookies...so the question is, is this as good as he can be, or can he still improve? If he is already as good as he can be, it's pretty good, so I'll take it. lol

I was talking about them vs gsw or houston or san antonio.
Got it. I do think they'll without question push Houston to 6 or 7 as long as their big 3 continue to get better.
As for the Warriors, right now I think it would be a tough 5 game series but need to see those 2 teams play a few more times.
As for the Spurs, I don't know what to think about them. Leonard still isn't healthy so I have to wait a bit longer before deciding what would happen in a possible Spurs/Thunder series
