ah that was close

Thug · 02-08-2012, 01:08 AM

Westbrook is so greedy, lol. He shoulda missed that second free throw so that time would expire, or be like 0.5

box1992 · 02-08-2012, 01:08 AM

down to this last play

Nites · 02-08-2012, 01:09 AM

Still got 1.1 seconds. If someone makes this I'm leaving the building.

box1992 · 02-08-2012, 01:11 AM

ye but than that would give gs a chance to win it

Nites · 02-08-2012, 01:11 AM

Well, that was a good game.

Nites · 02-08-2012, 01:12 AM

Almost 4 triple doubles in that game if you include Westbrooks 9 turnovers.

Warriors fans are weird. They all call each other bad names and shit.

Good thing you're not a coach.

In those situations coach/players always warn refs to call an immediate timeout off a rebound. So as soon as they gather the rebound, the whistle is blown. Probably leaves them around 0.6 atleast seconds to get a decent shot at tying the game or potentially winning it. You might even have a chance at throwing a lob. If you make the FT, the worse that can happen is OT...

I thought the "greedy" part was when he got fouled to shoot those free throws. The clock showed 1.8 seconds before he received the inbounds pass. At that point why not just catch the ball and shoot it straight up in the air? I saw Rubio do it a couple days ago...why don't more players do this? 1.8 seconds is not enough for someone to call timeout off a toss, even if it's a weak one like Michael Ruffin's against us when Mo Pete hit that three.

Lol. Meh, say what you want about it, its a more mathematically/statistically viable strategy for OKC.

Be up 2 with 0.4 (or maybe even less if they tip the rebound)

OR

Be up 3 with 1.1 left. Plenty of time for GS to tie it up. (who was shooting over 50% from the field)

Considering OKC was on a back to back where they went into OT last night, missing the FT would have been the right move.

But they won anyway, so theres no point in me expanding further energy proving my logics superiority.

Top to bottom I thought they had one of the strongest starting lineups in the league.

They definitely have enough pieces to talk to teams like NJ (for Deron), ORL (for D12) or NYK (for Melo) though.

It'd be pretty interesting....

I dunno, guys just aren't firing on all cylinders, not giving enough effort. They showed an ugly trend: That in 10 games decided by 5 points ot fewer, the Blazers have lost 9 straight! We greatly miss our closer so far this season.

Parker dropped 37 on the Sixers

Nites · 02-08-2012, 10:36 PM

Varejo has been a beast on the boards this season.

Nites · 02-08-2012, 10:52 PM

Ginobili is said to return this Saturday. As if the Spurs really needed him...
