Clank. Clank. Clank.

im sure its been mentioned but Westbrook running down and chucking that 3 at the end of the game after struggling mightily all game long was just a perfect thing for him to do. Just, so...Westbrook like.

They absolutely need him in order to win a title, but something has to change within him if thats actually going to happen. He has got to be thinking pass first, drive to the hoop second, and shoot 15+ footers third. Don't see that happening, but stranger things have happened.

Glad to see Oden out there getting the start today. Hate that he went to the dark side, but I was always under the belief that he could go on and be one of the best big men of all time. He is still young enough that if his knees hold up maybe he can get some strength in his knees and be a 20-25 minute guy for the next 7-8 years.

Last POR game I went to, actually the only one I've been to so far this year, I was close enough to hear Stotts and a lot of huddle talk and it was completely different. It was clear the players deferred to him, the "chemistry" of the team this year that gets talked about so much might actually be underrated (they obviously like each other), and Stotts was absolutely on fire calling out Dallas plays. So, let me add LOL Knicks.

Russell Westbrook is so damn dumb. Can't wait until he eventually loses a step and officially becomes a chucker so more people will join me on the hate train.

Westy didn't brick 2fts down 1

Granted he was not good most of that game

I probably should dislike Oden, but I am truly happy seeing him back out on the court.

It's not his fault Portland drafted him over Durant, he always have 100 percent for you guys, he just had 0 positive variance

that shot is getting way too much hate, they needed a three and he had a good look. Yes, they could have spent like 15s trying to get Durant a better look, but there were 40s or so left in the game.

Durant did a fair bit of slanking in the 4th.he was doing his sit around and let fisher/jackson/Westy do whatever routine.

He also had unbelievable expectations placed on him, I mean watch this:



The first time he showed up in Portland he had thousands of people show up in Pioneer Square to greet him. Hell, when POR drafted him there was a group of thousands at the Rose Garden who charged the court like the team had won the championship. I don't blame him for feeling too burdened and boozing too much when he was here.

Pretty sure I spotted him clapping for the ball when Westy took aim from 3 with 40 seconds.

Durant "let" Fisher shoot because he made his first 5 threes IIRC.

Reggie didn't take a shot in the last 5:55.

Other than that, decent hypothesis, Hansel.

A Staten Island man has been arrested for allegedly threatening the life of New York Knicks owner James Dolan, a police spokesman confirmed.

John Giamella, 19, was arrested on Friday and charged with aggravated harassment for allegedly making threats via his Twitter account against Dolan, the chairman of Madison Square Garden and owner of the New York Rangers.

"James Dolan, it's officially time to die," Giamella allegedly tweeted. That was followed by the tweet, "Death to James Dolan," according to a police spokesman.

Giamella also allegedly posted photos showing himself naked and holding a gun, according to published reports.

The head of security at Madison Square Garden picked up on the threats and alerted police, the spokesman said.

Poor odds. Super reputable book offered 200:1 and made a killing on it.
