    Rudy Gay is currently the clutchest playa in the league brah, I'll admit it. But I think his defense cost y'all the game in OT.

    How the hell did he let Gary Forbes of all people drive past him for an And 1 that fouled himself out in the process.

    On another note the team Spurs vs Thunder is a good game.

    Gay is a roamer, you hardly ever see him focus on 1 guy. The only time he does is when he has to play durant. Otherwise, he's playing zone most of the time.

    I remmeber back in 2007, when we were playing the Jazz in the first round. And Mario Elie and Kevin Elsefielder were doing the post game reports in the playoffs.

    They always kept harping on The Rockets having a 3rd option in the playoffs to take pressure of Yao and Tmac. Im not saying Rudy Gay could have been a 3rd option as a 19 year old rookie, but at the same time. He was a much better defender his first year with the Grizz( and we could have put him on Deron and slowed him down a little with his length). But over the years he slacked off and became a chucker. Rudy Gay has talent, just sucks he was shipped to a terrible franchise like the Grizz( back when they were terrible, and developed some bad tendencies). He could have developed better over in Houston( and maybe have been a totally different player). Its just JVG hated rookies at the time( unless they were spot up shooters).

    That scrub has more trade value than anybody on our team right now

    Indeed. There are only two kinds of basketball players in the world.

    One is on Durant's level.
    The other is scrub.

    Yeah, just saw the highlights on tv. He apparently hit two 3 pointers...one with 7 seconds left and the other at the buzzer. Here's the one at the buzzer:

    Nice shot! I'm not trying to discredit the shot or anything but if you look closely, there should have been about 0.5-0.9 seconds left on the clock for the opposing team. Nice job by the shot clock guy :p (Not sure if Toronto had any timeouts left but just something I noticed) and definitely a clutch shot for Rudy.

    Oh, I had my speakers down. I hear the commentator did state "There's going to be time added" . Disregard :) Clutch three for sure.
