In the meantime, we can all bask in the glory knowing that Travis Outlaw is impressing the hell out of the Thunder crowd.

Thank the heavens. Think I rather have Reke rest. No point coming back on Wednesday. Seasons done. Get everything straightened out with the quad and keep improving that jumper over the summer again

Didn't Evans' last injury happen in OKC?
Ah, a game of Six Degrees...

Tryeke Evans gets injured in Oklahoma City.

The OKC team is the Thunder.

Thunder has been applied to the fervor of the fans at Arco.

Arco is rumored to be on an Indian burial ground.

Indians curse those who defile their burial grounds.

THEREFORE, Tyreke was injured because of the Indian burial grounds curse.

According to Jerry Reynolds, when Director of Sports Medicine Pete Youngman was asked how long Evans would be out, the reply was "He'll be out the rest of the season.'

Outlaw has not passed the ball once yet
In last nights game he shot the ball every time he touched it until playing about 11 minutes. (6 minutes in the 3rd & 5 minutes in the 4th)
Then he started passing the ball and ended up with 3 assists in the last 7 minutes of the game.

I think from his perspective he's going to shoot until he thinks he's going to be in for a while, then he'll stop playing 'me' ball.

Hopefully he'll recognize it sooner and share the ball

no, not really, when you have a crappy team its probably not that hard to accomplish

ONG. Kevin Durant could have been killed with that vicious blow by Toney Douglas.





If that wasn't flopping, what was it?

What's the matter with you? Playing the starters with the second unit? HERESY!!!
Truth. Smart thinks in terms of units. Last night the starting unit didn't play well in the first quarter and he was unable to see that Tyreke played very well. He didn't know how to use him with the bench unit. Probably is even incapable of thinking that way.

Seeing Scotty Brooks as head coach of the Thunder always makes me play a bit of "what if..." - something i don't like to do.

Hey, nice inbound. Good grief.
