Brooks making me eat crow

OKC looks MUCH better than I thought they would.

I still think Memphis will be a load in this series ... but if OKC keeps matching up like this then I like their chances.

Memphis normally shoots like this and OKC is off a bit. Once OKC finds their shot (even with Memphis' D) they have the advantage.

Thunder just have nobody that can make plays without Russell.

And KD makes me eat crow.

:clap:clap:clap



I was thinking about you Nick when KD started going 4th quarter crazy on Memphis. Dude is money........

He didn't get the Kid Clutch nickname for nothing.

The problem still is that KD has to do this every game for the Thunder to win. Because the Thunder really have no other consistent threat. K-Mart has been real good the last 2 games but outside of that they don't have a real good distributor so it ends up being a jump shooting team. And he's pretty much scored like this in almost every playoff game he's ever been in.

reggie Jackson is playing really well and is pretty consistent

I don't think martin will have another game like this but neither will ibaka.

I've been impressed with Reggie for most of the season. His struggles last year were very discouraging, but he made major strides. I'm now worried that he's going to play his way out of OKC's price range between now and next summer.

I don't expect Martin to play that well every game, but I think he'll have a good series if he stays aggressive. I wasn't discouraged with Martin's missed shots in the Houston series so much as how badly he was missing along with becoming so passive. He was passing up shot opportunities that OKC needs him to take. With Allen starting and Martin coming off the bench, their minutes probably won't overlap too much, especially since Hollins doesn't trust Tony's offense enough to give him big minutes anyway, and Martin didn't seem intimidate by Memphis' other wing defenders.

good points smash. I've also been impressed with Reggie this season. I think he's really starting to come along.
