Also slightly horrified that Miller is not in the game and Bayless is for no apparent reason.

Howard is such a butterfinger

Over/Under for Durant FTs tonight. 20?

The fix is in.

Re: Trail Blazers vs Thunder GAME THREAD 4/12

These OKC announcers give the Mikes a run for biggest homers. They are terrible. You'd think the Thunder never comminted a foul

Abused.

Juwan is seriously allergic to rebounds.

Blazer 1-8 from 3?

Way to force the issue Blazers.

Re: Trail Blazers vs Thunder GAME THREAD 4/12

I am proud of the way the Thunder is playing. That is how you come out and fight for playiff possitioning

Juwan is seriously allergic to rebounds.

The honeymoon is over for him. He's not a serviceable player for a playoff team anymore.

No Aldridge and Miller sucks ass.

Re: Trail Blazers vs Thunder GAME THREAD 4/12

Camby is doing it all, on both ends of the court.

except rebounding

Nobody around here much wants to admit it or even think about it, but I'm pretty sure the boys in blue have a slightly more promising future ... god help us all if they pick up a legit big man in free agency this summer.

21-7 FT disparity.

Depends to a large degree on injuries, doesn't it?

Re: Trail Blazers vs Thunder GAME THREAD 4/12

Bayless is killing us. Camby seems to be the only person who wants to win tonight and that understands that they need to step up with BRoy out.

Their team is much better. It was a joke earlier in the season, but it's easily apparent now. They have durable players. We have guys that play 1/2 a season at best.

Well if we start accounting for injuries then we're not even close.

Re: Trail Blazers vs Thunder GAME THREAD 4/12

All this crappy play, a 21-7 FTA defecit, 1-9 from 3--and we're only down 8 at halftime. How?

That's why we're tied with them in the standings with guys that play half the season.

Blame KP. He knew Durant would be a prolific scorer and opted for the big man that would "win championships."

I don't follow your logic. My logic states that OKC has been incredibly healthy this season. I'd like to see them handle some adversity before I annoint them the champs of the future.

Not after tonight.

They have younger players then the Blazers at their key positions. Screw your emoticon.

Re: Trail Blazers vs Thunder GAME THREAD 4/12

Fuck all of you that blame KP for drafting Oden over Durant. Every fucking GM in the league would have done the same thing. 20/20 hindsight is just bitch-talk IMO.

Fucking hell. I bet you're a gas at parties.

Promising future means nothing to me. We've seen how Portland's promising future has potentially changed within a year. The same thing could happen to OKC, or maybe Portland catches a break and acquires some star or something in some way. Point is, it changes every year.

The future isn't guaranteed, so all it is is talk.

Wow, way to step out on a limb there.

If we win, we're not tied with them. If we lose, we're not tied with them.

I am sure they be just as good without Durant right now....
