Thunder @ Kings Game Thread - 11/10/09

well keep in mind that the thunder are the best team that we've beaten so far... we have to earn those espn highlights. though they did play like 3 minutes of the 2nd qtr during coast to coast....

Loving this, win after win, this is looking good. I know this sounds bad but Martin going down has the team running the floor and passing better, great win.

****ing espn. just showed the highlights of our game. 5 segments. 4 of them were Durant making us looked stupid with 3's and a few and 1's. Only highlight was our last offensive play when Casspi got the dunk. then it was like oh yeah the kings won. Eh I guess we are a ways away from that kinda of respect yet.

saw that too, kinda pissed me off but the nba fastbreak guys gave us some props, espcially Tyreke.

I went to the game. I am now 3 for 3. My friend invited me to Friday's game. With my record, we could go a game above .500.

You want to see the Kings win? Get me tickets to more games.

Edit: BTW - I sat through this game with a very painful broken rib. Is that dedication or what?

JT needs to go up strong around the basket. He misses at least two easy buckets every game because he just goes up too soft.

Hawes is worse. That guy just goes up soft every single time. It's maddening.

I think they make it up with average mid range games. If they were monster dunkers they would be overpowered.

It sure is!

4 wins in last 5 games. I can't really remember last time that happened, but it just feels right. Like I said yesterday, the key was to stop Durant from easy scoring and Nocioni did it pretty good, since Kevin's FG percentage is awful.
I think this was the best invitation for the people to come and fill the Arco on Friday when Rockets are coming.

Maybe GP sees the promise in this team right now that he may see it worth looking for a trade that helps us this year. I know we won't get a championship but a push for the
8th seed in the playoffs would be a goal this young team and something feed the hunger of the fans going into next year.

I would LOVE something like that to go down. The battle for the 8th seed shouldn't be as hard as everyone thinks...although we aren't healthy.

wow... how did he miss both of them?

The strangest thing that he'd never straggled from the FT line in his professional career. 77.1% last year in Europe. The one element of the game that is actually no different in the NBA?! Amazing!

It seems like nothing fears him, driving, defense, 3 pointer nothing.

Except free throws.

WTF.

He's 3 for 15 at the line.. ???
