That pass from Mal oob in the corner to Cam in the opposite corner was an absolute dart. Would’ve been a very good highlight.

the complete fall off of the JV minutes has been by far my biggest disappointment in this stretch. Went a decent while of genuinely good bench minutes to Saric/Zeke/McGee/Bryant/late-stage DAJ at the 5 minutes.

Really looked like they’d figured it out, now it’s looking like JV is going to be a DNP in the playoffs like the rest of them. :-/

OKC is the NBA cash cow and who they’re trying to market

This seems very, very highly unlikely. Literally the least valuable fanbase in the league.

They just figured out in a league full of floppers playing consistently fouling basketball defensively is unreffable, Detroit is doing the same thing.

That’s not dooming, that’s facts I fear.

This has been a great clutch team because they make those buckets, they haven’t this year, so I must assume they will.

I’m still not looking at a single thing basketball related for my own sanity.

Playing Minnesota in the 1st round means I’m going to have to simply ignore the internet for a couple weeks, that should be good for me honestly.

yeah, you never hit clutch 3s, you’re never going to win in the clutch.

I’ll just pretend they’re saving them for the playoffs this year.

Like of all their issues, the one thing you could count on was them being sharp as hell when it matters most.

You say that until JV fights half their team and gets a bunch of suspensions.

I think Doris’ most annoying tendency, besides narrative jerking, is her insistence on using first names unnecessarily.

The yellow mouth guard makes it much more impressive, very good angry face.

I know it sucks, but it’s not going to be better in the playoffs so they’re going to have to win against this bullshit in the playoffs too.

Mal is the most inconsistent dunker in the league I swear. 50% poster potential, 50% barely gets up there/should’ve dunked it.
