    When the ball was in the air, my heart and soul wanted a miss FTL

    although I will say there was something oddly and terribly satisfying about John Wall launching such a lousy shot and clanking it so completely

    It was almost poetic. Especially when Oladipo did the same thing the last play LOL.

    The coach is crying.

    If you enjoy them losing every game then you should probably work on your empathy. These are humans and not just memes.

    Can you add the option “I haven’t watched since Harden asked for a trade?”

    Somehow, without planning or knowing what my reaction would be, a "yesh" exhaled from my mouth, indeed odd yet terribly satisfying.

    looking at the schedule, it’s really not a stretch at all to say that this losing streak could reach 30 in a row

    we have the Wolves coming up, but I think the Wolves are better than us

    empathy??

    empathy would require me having experienced their feelings ... give me a millionaire dollars to play a child's game (don't laugh ... I could totally be Tank Commander, here), and then maybe I could examine my empathy

    I was okay with them winning this game. Just to start a new streak. But you didn't need to hope when you saw the shot John Wall took. There was no chance that was going in... dude thought he was Damian Lillard.

    Wolves are definitely better than us. They only lose cuz everyone is injured on their team. How we gonna keep KAT off the glass. He's gonna have 75 rebounds by himself.

    You have more money than many others in the world. Just by posting online, you have access to the internet, many in the world do not. It does not make you invincible. You are human. I am human. These men are human.

    Is your pain not still pain?

    Open your mind and your heart or you will close yourself from growth.

    Well said. Stephen Silas waited 22 years for this opportunity, and he could get fired after his first season if things don’t improve. If that happens, who knows if he gets a second chance later in his career. Also, the teams that finish with one of the three worst records have the exact same odds of getting the number one pick.

    The Wolves are far more talented than the team the Thunder put on the floor today.

    I'm glad I can bring you joy even if your enjoyment involves being degrading (I honestly am not sure but due to the atmosphere around here it's safe to assume this is sarcasm.) Behind every poster is a human. I hope you are okay and I hope your attempted dunk on a stranger brings you a moment of pride even if slight and short. This place has plenty of people who can join in negativity towards others. As long as I'm posting here, I'll try to provide a little more.

    Yeah they decided to fire their terrible coach just like the Hawks did and replaced them with better coaches. These guys probably don’t cry at pressers at the end of regular season games.
