An interesting wrinkle in this NBA Cup thing is that the championship is an extra game that doesn't count towards regular season. If OKC wins it, and continues on their incredible trajectory of single digit losses through the year, there may be some discussion about this extra win and its significance in getting them to 73 wins if they do get that close to it.

Plus does it factor into their current win streak?  They are at 16, and will probably continue into the 20s. Might also be flirting with that record in mid January if Wemby doesn't come back soon. The Spurs will play them in the Cup and twice around Christmas.

with herro back it’s kel’el ware who’s moved to the bench, meaning the heat are going small with their starting five (norman powell at the 4). their only loss since herro’s return was a three point loss to the (best team in the east?) pistons. it will be interesting to see how this smalller lineup works for them going forward. 

smaller lineup, more spacing, no alpha, everyone eats.

Poor OKC. They just don't get the benefit of the whistle.

I love all the hate.  Just makes it more fun when the inevitable happens.  Wouldn’t be any fun if people didn’t cry.

Shocking. its not the kind of hate to embrace but you're all for flopping, hacking, foul baiting with your band of cornball players. it isn't the hate that Shaq & Kobe got in the early 00s because they were that good and there wasn't anything you could do.

 

SGA still ends up on the ground more than any player in the league. poor guy :(

Yes.  I’m ashamed.  You got me.  🥹
I do enjoy how salty you get.  
Actually kind of jealous, I really wish i cared that much.  
Probably would have enjoyed the title more.  Instead it was just ‘cool, when’s the next one?’

Nah nah you don't need to wish, dealing with the 1 tone deaf OKC fan here is enough as it is. 

we don't need the cool, edgy one here too.

speaking of salty

 

 

this really warmed the soul on a morning when its -29 outside.  He cant enter inside the arc on a FT until the ball hits the rim (breaking news: he did) 

 

Wish there was a full unedited clip of the entire team walking back crying.

fuck OKC go sell your fouls better next time bitches

The hate is beautiful.  I came for the OU hate and stayed for the thunder.  Moarrrr

Shit, it was getting kind of sad with all the winning.  I guess harder to cry about the refs when you’re winning by 30.

Anyways, I think I just posted more than I did all season so far.  Need some more losses and we’ll be good and warm for the playoffs.  

Also, today I learned I’m cool and edgy!

At least we can share the joy of frigid weather.  🤝 It’s a good cleanse for the soul.  God knows I need it, being a thunder AND OU fan.  Oof

Nobody enjoys OKC outside of their fans lol. When it was Durant/Westbrook, others around the NBA and fans of other teams actually liked watching them play and enjoyed them. You only hated them if you had to play them in the playoffs, because obviously they were a great team and hard to beat. I was actually mad when they gave up the 3-1 series lead to GSW, I wanted to see them/Durant break through.

 

Nobody likes or respects this iteration. It's very clear that they would rather game the rules than play legit basketball. Commentators and players on other teams are constantly taking veiled shots at their play style. Their fans can't fathom why people don't enjoy it.

OKC fans are whinier than Celtics fans, dorkier than Spurs fans and bigger front runners than Laker fans, with the global footprint Jazz fans.

It’s truly incredible.

Now show the clips of Wemby's 12 FT's in 22 minutes.  

The obsession on this board with SGA getting fouls is starting to border the obsession with OU holding.
