    Well, we beat OKC, a team under .500, who is apparently "doing it the right way", so I think we deserve it!

    Tari's 5 rebs play and Dengun's Shai block should be in NBA Top-10

    As Sam Vecenie recently said on his podcast….”The Rockets coach.. no the Rockets organization doesn’t hold their players accountable at all. They are the worst I have ever seen in all my years in the NBA.”

    Have always believed top to bottom, our roster is more talented than OKC’s.

    How they have almost double more wins than us, shows how much of a joke Silas is.

    Wow. Not worst that he’s seen recently, mind you.

    EVER.

    Not too late to turn it around but hearing things like that really do put a damper on my excitement sometimes. I’m hoping our guys can succeed in spite of everything.

    Stone is like yeah we're not trading you, Eric. You're staying with us foooorrreeever.
    SGA had a Cade like game where he shoots 23 times to get his 24 points . Very good team defense on the perimeter. Sengun altered more shots than I can remember all season.
    If they're going to front Alpi like this, then you have to let him operate up top like they did with him in the 4th. It should have been another 10/10/10 night. 4 missed bunnies and not even counting the open threes he generated.
    That dribble to put his defender to sleep and then toss it to KM made the crowd awe aloud. Missed dunk tho.

    Other positives:
    Silas is finally using timeouts before the other teams goes on a long run, that's another positive.
    The three center wack rotation is gone.
    JOsh is back in da mix! It's inexcusable that he fell out of the rotation for moonshine. When we needed a bucket, he got one. What's OKC's excuse.

    Tari impressed me with his hustle plays. I am starting to feel that Tari should be starting over Bari, hopefully Bari can prove me wrong.

    Tate and Gordon kinda of read SGA like a book towards the end. He was forcing up really terrible shots or just getting the ball poked away

    I don't know when Sam Vecenie started covering the NBA, but i can say that Gilbert Arenas and Javaris Crittenden drawing guns on each other in the Wizards locker room seems worse?
