They've lost to the Blazers, Nuggets, Spurs, Rockets, and SHOULD have lost against the Mavs. They play Nuggets in Utah tonight. Pretenders.

RE: Around the NBA 2019-2020 - ThunderMav - 02-05-2020 Ge makes good points. Why is Stef slow playing coming back? Is it due to helping GS land a better lotto ball? Pretty fishy https://twitter.com/OKCTHUNDERAlex/status/1225219705146753024 RE: Around the NBA 2019-2020 - dirkfansince1998 - 02-05-2020 (02-05-2020, 07:55 PM)ThunderMav Wrote: Ge makes good points. Why is Stef slow playing coming back? Is it due to helping GS land a better lotto ball? Pretty fishy Obviously protecting the pick. Warriors are reloading and will be back in contention next year. Healthy Curry, Klay, Green + Russell or whatever he can net in a trade + a high lottery pick (with a good chance to land in the top 3 or 5) The supporting cast was over the hill anyway and a longer break might be exactly what they needed. Reminds me a little bit of MJ taking a break. Mental exhaustion was probably a bigger problem than any injuries they suffered. On a different note. Just checked a few boxscores and was amazed by Rick Rubio. 16min 0 PTS 0 REB 10 AST Only attempted 2 FGs. 2 TOV. Talk about a pass first PG. RE: Around the NBA 2019-2020 - HoosierDaddyKid - 02-05-2020 Heat/Clippers should be a good one.

RE: Around the NBA 2019-2020 - ThunderMav - 02-06-2020 I have no respect for KD. Its him that keeps bringing up OKC not fans. This does prove exactly what I’ve said since he left. He did not intentionally throw the series but he just as well have. He was mentally checked out and knew he was going to GS and then he choked. If he would just get past it so would fans. https://twitter.com/ThunderND/status/1225287410004701184 https://twitter.com/Jhickness9/status/1225296027667718145 https://twitter.com/OKCTHUNDERAlex/status/1225289410553372672 RE: Around the NBA 2019-2020 - mtrot - 02-07-2020 Lol, Covington putting the game away for the Rockets over the Lakers. RE: Around the NBA 2019-2020 - SwisherPrice - 02-07-2020 Rockets are about to run away with the division...this new lineup is what D'antoni loves for his system. It may not work in the playoffs but it will win them lots of regular season games from now until the end. RE: Around the NBA 2019-2020 - donzingis38 - 02-07-2020 I think this Rockets team will be a nightmare for our Mavs.. sucks to admit. But who knows, we haven't seen playoff Luka yet.

But who knows, we haven't seen playoff Luka yet. Remains to be seen. If the 3's aren't falling, they're vulnerable vs big teams. They got away with one last night vs the Lakers, who didn't play well, and turned it over trying to force the ball inside.

Russ has been playing great and not taking many 3’s but the doubling Harden is working and he is playing bad not getting in a groove. They hit a high per ent on other player 3’s but won’t keep that up. And Lakers settled for too many 3’s instead of pounding inside. This type play is gonna wear Rox out and other teams are sure to exploit inside. That in then will get Rox in foul trouble. Will be interesting to see what happens but I they are in trouble.

If LAL, LAC, Den and Houston take first four places, I would wish to play against them and not the other three. I think this goes for OKC as well. I am also not sold on Houston. Based on how they play currently I wonder if it would not be better to leave Harden score his 50 points and shut down the others, who are totally depending on Harden creating space for them. RE: Around the NBA 2019-2020 - dirkfansince1998 - 02-07-2020 Tucker is not your typical 6´6. Build like a tank. Centers might be able to shoot over him but backing him down in the post isn´t easy. RoCo has a great wingspan and is one of the best if not the best help defender in the league. Both are undersized but for Houstons scheme they are perfect because they can at least somewhat make up for the lack of a true bigman.

Injuries are part of it, but my goodness, he's been horrible. |
