Ariza was great. Chuck was great. Andersen was good. Lowry was good. Scola was good. Battier was solid. T-Mac is getting better. Brooks had his worst game of the season but it's forgivable. Great win.
Great to see Ariza kicking it up a notch tonight. Well done. If someone had told me that we won with only 8 points from Brooks and Lowry, and with no Landry and a terrible injury to C-Bud,I would have thought you're kidding. Chuck with 13 points,wow,scoring like he did earlier in the season. He never ceases to amaze me. Andersen getting better. Tracy looking a little more comfortable,but he has a long way to go unfortunately(as expected). An important win,on a night when our players were tired.
i told hayes in the denver game (i'm in denver) that he was an offensive force. i think he's taken it to heart. go chuck!!!
D. Anderson really showed something tonight. Best game I've seen from him. I hope Chase is alright, but I'm worried. McGrady seems to be getting into the groove, even though his shooting stats weren't impressive. Chuckwagon is the man. His calves look like Earl Campbell thighs. Great hustle. I am disappointed how often OKC was able to doinate the paint, but good teams find a way to win. We did, we're good.
Glad we got the win. Hate that we don't play again until Tuesday. It's good for the players, but as a fan it sucks. When does the team practice next???? Are they going to evaluate the Tmac situation again now? The 7 mins. a game thing can't keep going on forever.
Great game. I thought few buckets by DA in the 4th were really big. It kept us above the Thunders when it looked like we might lose the lead. And Chuck's rebounding at the end were huge.
the best reason to like this team and not dismantle it is, they find ways to win. We've won with trevor going cold. We've won with brooks going cold. We've won with injuries, and we've won with even more injuries. We've won with more offense than defense on the floor and vice versa. We've won with our starters and we've won with our bench. We've won with Lowry leading the way and with Lowry being a non factor. Feels good to know we're anything but the average NBA team.
I'm surprised Tracy didn't get Budinger's minutes in the second half, seemed like an opportunity to let him play a little longer.
Haven't seen aussie rocket around after the last few games. He's probably at home eating some humble pie.
I believe the Chron article that came out like a week ago specifically stated that Tracy would play short minutes in the next 6 games and then be re-evaluated. So yes he will probably only get 8 minutes the next two games.
