thank you sara evans for the longest rendition on our anthem. that intro video was pathetic. they might as well have showed scott brooks dribbling the ball too. talk about anti-climatic.
Perkins has not matched up well with any of the teams they have played outside of the Lakers. They are just better without him and his butter fingers
Why even have Perkins in the starting lineup vs. Bosh? Why even have Perkins in the starting lineup vs. Bosh? Why even have Perkins in the starting lineup vs. Bosh?
i'm not even sure big leads this early on are a good thing. it's almost like you start playing to protect the lead for 40+ minutes and when the other team inevitably reverts back to their mean on offense it feels like you are falling apart instead of just the math working itself out. and durant should be well rested for a 2nd quarter explosion.
Honestly, he wasn't playing worth a dime anyway. Everyone can blame WB all you want, but he was the only OKC starter playing at full speed. The others were just standing around, doing nothing, hardly moving and barely acting like they wanted the ball (KD included). Nobody in OKC's starting lineup had any urgency on either end but WB. Brooks should have put in Collison/Harden for Perkins/Ibaka after about 3 minutes and then chewed them out royally on the bench.
