Well, it is Neil Olshey, he's probably banging two supermodels in a hot tub while glancing over at his 80 inch 4K tv occasionally.

Olshey is the Trump of GMs! :MARIS61:

 

[SlyPokerDog]

I bet Olshey and Trump have dinner in the offseason and swing.

Throw in a Kardashian and we could have the great reality show ever.

So OKC goes big and beats GS. Hopefully Neil was watching. Offensively inept bigs, or bigs that think they're small and shoot threes is not what we need. Horford and or Monroe would be huge

Horford takes a lot of outside shots.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

KD was 10/30, if he gets his shot going it's gonna be nuts. Still, he hit the biggest shot when they needed him.

His shot selection is really worrying. Feast or famine. I just don't think a player shooting 33% could be considered a star in the league.

 

[Pinwheel1]

The formula for beating a good team on the road always seems to be coming from behind in the 2nd half.
The home team finds things easy at first and build a lead. Then in the 2nd half someone gets hot (I.e Westbrook)
Then down the stretch in the 4th, the wrong people are taking the critical shots under pressure.

Barnes, Iguodala, Livingston, and Speights all took critical shots when OKC was making their final push....and missed. Which took the ball out of Curry's hands. I doubt that will happen again.

 

[Tunchi]

Durant is feast or famine...my best Tunchi

Bullshit lol

Look at Durant's percentages. It demolishes the real feast or famine

Bullshit lol

Look at Durant's percentages. It demolishes the real feast or famine

Durant's shooting numbers in this year's playoffs:
Fg% .435
3p% .279

Throw in 3.6 turnovers and you've got some Ethiopia level famine.

Durant's shooting numbers in this year's playoffs:

3 wins away from a 2nd trip to NBA Finals.

Golden State lost.... is this good? No.... bad? We are supposed to hate OKC becaus they were the Sonics.... boo!!

Oh completely. Just putting Tunchi in his place. He can't call Dame "feast or famine" if he can't do the same for Durant in the playoffs this year.
I would love to add Durant to this team!

I don't really mind this Thunder team to be fair. Westbrook and Durant are fine players, Kanter and Adams are quite cool, their fans are passionate and on top of that I've had some fun with that roster in 2K.

 

[Mediocre Man]

You're really wondering if a NBA GM watches NBA games?

Maybe he was catching up on Game of Thrones. Geez Sly, the guy is busy

I should have clarified. He also has the ability to score on the block

 

[crandc]

Playoffs are showing GSW's vulnerability. They blitzed through the regular season, and the no. 8 seed. It took all they had to beat the unheralded Blazers. Now they blow a 14 point lead on their home court?

Obviously, just one game, they could still come back and win it all. But there is a great deal of "this wasn't supposed to happen" feeling here in Oaktown.

I hate their fan-base with a passion. I hope golden state wins. Fuck Cleveland, and fuck Oklahoma. No shame in losing to the eventual champs.

Their team doesn't bother me at all though. Unlike the clippers...

Haha, yeah Durant is an absolute stud and his 1-8 performance at the end of the 4th quarter almost cost them the game. But he is a superstar player and one of the reasons the Thunder are a great team. If he goes 1-8 you can live with that and wouldn't really want anyone outside of Westbrook to be taking those shots at the end of games. Just like Dame, live or die with your best players, I'll take that any day. I was just giving you a hard time because if Dame went 1-8 in the 4th you would be all over that.

 

[H.C.]

watched game 1.
really seemed like the warriors plan was to knock Westbrick around a bit. See if they could get him to play heroball.
Kudo's to Westbrick for not letting them get under his skin.
Where are the Thunder bigs to knock Curry around a bit. Especially when he flexes after making a shot over you.

Shh...he's interviewing potential Blazers Dancers

That's cold as ICE....

The video shop with the faces?

CLASSIC.

 

[H.C.]

As much as I've disliked Westbrick over the years.
I'm rooting for him in this series. Couldn't care less if the Thunder win.
I just want to see Westbrick to continue to dominate defensively and play smart offensively. He's fun to watch when he doesn't make poor decisions.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

He's fun to watch when he doesn't make poor decisions.

Yeah but he's FUCKING HILARIOUS to watch when he does make poor decisions.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

I feel dirty rooting for either team.

 

[illmatic99]

Man, KD . Just so smooth

 

[e_blazer]

I feel dirty rooting for either team.

Root for them both to lose. You'll feel better. Frustrating in the end, but better for your Blazers-loving soul.

 

[e_blazer]

I want to see Steven Adams star as a Samurai warrior in a cheap movie this summer.

 

[e_blazer]

WTF didn't Curry and Thompson miss some of these shots against us?

 

[Red Rooster]

Thunder getting worked by the refs. Can't believe I'm defending the Thunder. Sigh.
