I think on the road you go for 3. OT probably not gonna go right

 

[msgkings322]

Go for 2 or 3?

Just said, 3. No OT

Thunder deserved to lose that one, but we will take it.

Wow CJ had a great look. Too bad Zion is hurt, this would be a great series

 

[msgkings322]

McCollum had a pretty good look but shot it in a jerkily poor fashion

Game 1 jitters. They still win this series in 5 (I said 4 in the contest which could happen)

Defense came through for the Thunder with the huge block by Chet on Nance then the disruption of the shot at the end. Home court came in handy in this one for sure.

Yup good D by both teams

All you daily fantasy guys be sure and play Valanchunis every game in this series

 

[Brightboat]

The Pelicans played them tough without their best player but to many mistakes at the end

Bell and SGA are twins....

So the weird challenge the other night was explained today. Earlier in the season the Thunder had the same situation and it was ruled that since it was no longer a jump ball that the challenge was successful no matter what and the challenge was retained. Daigneault said he felt like it was 60/40 that the ball was off of the Pelicans but he felt like there was little risk because he assumed he would win the challenge either way since it would no longer be a jump ball. The league came out today and said a mistake was made in the game in the regular season, not in this last game.

Two uninspiring markets in OKC and New Orleans, it's no wonder this is the least active series thread (And let's face it, I'm pretty much the only reason the Pacers/Bucks thread has any activity)...

Actually liking OKC chances against the old guys of the Clippers if it gets there... Dallas would be a different challenge, though.

Really good article on Lu Dort I just heard being discussed on the radio by the guy that wrote it. This guy is a big time success story and he truly never takes a play off. Lu Dort was summed up like this. When he gets up in the morning he thinks I don’t know what the rest of the world is going to do today, but i am going to play basketball as hard as I can as long as I can.

The truth about Thunder defensive whiz Lu Dort

If Dort is on the court, he’s all in. No matter the assignment, Luguentz Dort is part of the Light Brigade.

Here's a bad idea. How about instead of the National Anthem SGA and Chet sing the full song from that commercial they're in?

If someone would say to Harden- what a pro wants what a pro needs he'd say a strip club.

I’m sure they would for another ATT pay check

Wait…you’re saying that he often plays basketball? That’s really uncommon for a lot of these guys in the NBA. I think Lu may be a philosopher.

What are his thoughts on taking shots and how that can be successful? Does he have any strong opinions on alchemy? What are his thoughts on Schrodinger’s Cat?

Good point.
