Oh my gawd....Antonio Daniels is horrific.

I can't watch the Thunder League pass because of him.

When they played the Heat on Friday, my tv was on mute after the 1st quarter

@TurnUpTheHeat any idea when soft ass Whiteside is returning? LOL

Him and Kawhi are so similar where they can't play basketball unless they're 110% healthy

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

Just don't get not playing your best player. My philosophy when it come to the end of close games, play your best 5 from that game.

He was much better than Dragic, Wade, or Richardson today

Agree.
It should be a nightly decision for this team.
We had no ‘go to’ guy.
Whoever is hot should be in during crunch time.

No clue.
He misses too many games for my liking.

Glad to see you came over on my side. It is ridiculous. Considering he has not been upgraded to doubtful in any game since his injury, I can't see him playing until Saturday at the earliest which means dude is about to miss a full 3 weeks for a minor injury lol

I never defended him.
I questioned whether or not the team had cleared him.

Anyway, why is Dion never on the bench for home games?

I thought i was the only one who noticed that. Very odd to say the least. Had his surgery and is always in Miami from what I see.

Doesn't seem like a team guy if you ask me

Just an off topic observation....and statement.

If the Houston Rockets don't win the NBA title this year, they should be ashamed of themselves, and some heads in their organization should roll.

They discussed this on sports radio in South Florida the other day. The major point they were trying to bring up is how Whiteside is not a "Heat culture" guy - meaning that he's not the type that's going to play unless he's 100%. Now that he got paid, you don't see that same guy before he got the big contract. I'd be mildly shocked if he's back with the Heat next season.

Glad we only spent $12 mil per year on him. He's another I won't be mad about going to another team in the future.

Portland owns that Thunder ass. Bad matchup for some reason. Great time for Melo to throw in a tanker. But I rather play anyone in the playoffs but those guys. Portland does have an insane schedule coming up.

Thunder only have themselves to blame for not being the 3 seed.

3 seed & 4 seed are the same shit IMO especially Houston & GSW are basically the same level....unlike previous years when the Dubs were much better than the 2 seed.

You sure you don’t mean Michael Cage? Daniels doesn’t get muzh air time and is the only one that will call the thunder out for anything.

No.

Daniels.

He reminds me off Avery Johnson.

I just hate his voice and how excitable he gets for no reason.

Who'd you rather in the 2nd round?

That's basically what you're fighting for.

Really doesn’t matter, got to beat them all anyway. Right now slipping to the 7 doesn’t seem like the worst thing, and if they keep relying on Melo it may happen.
