    OKC is playing their C team this half. If we can't come back against them, that's a problem

    Ime needs to stop playing Amen as playmaker.

    Amen doesn't have shooting. His dribble is not good either.

    I never understood how people considered Amen a PG

    no jumper, weak handle, and court vision that’s nothing special compared to other point guards

    of course pre-draft people were acting like he had elite passing…I had binoculars and everything but could never see where that elite top tier passing was at

    OKC is done for the night, no reason this group shouldn't show results.

    Using plus and minus to try to explain away how bad Jabari is silly and ridiculous. Jabari and Jalen have played the worst but at least Jalen gives you streaky shooting and tari will give you elite defense. Sengun is an allstar level player who can get his own shot anytime. BARI GIVES YOU NOTHING ABOVE MID LEVEL PLAY.

    it's hilarious that Dillon Brooks has a better goto move in the paint than Jabari Smith Jr.

    So you're saying you don't agree with the Magic Johnson comparisons?

    Boban made millions to play in junk time and get the ball when it got stuck on top of the backboard. Best to ever do it.

    Amen is a good passer. It's just that all the good passing in the world doesn't mean anything when no one on the team can hit an open 3.

    Did Goon learn how to shoot free throws? That would be nice.
