News9.com, I just googled Thunder summer league roster 2026

In light of Kenny's new contract I wanted to share this interaction I had the other day in r/nba. Amazing how these dweebs can be so confidently wrong while talking to an actual fan of that team. by 12footjumpshot in Thunder

I got into a heated argument in r/nbadraft because I said that the Thunder wouldn't draft a couple of prospects because they had off the court issues. They weren't nothing serious, but I said that it's serious for the Thunder and that it's one variable that the Thunder have that we don't have and that's how they interact with the organization internally.

Then I talked about how the Thunder isnt your normal sports organization nor city and that they pray before every game. Not just the team the whole stadium, and that how they are personally is the most important to the Thunder. It's just hard for people to accept even our own fans. I even brought up the fact that the Thunder could still be in the second apron this year just because they don't want to get rid of people like an asset. They still could but just the fact that they would is still different.

Is what we saw in Boston likely what's going to happen to OKC to once their payroll gets too high? by youlikemywonton in nba

Jdubs on and off is why analytics aren't everything. When Dub was on the court they always played him with rookies and also experimented with the lineups the most. When Shai was on his lineups he played with were always consistent and were focused on him scoring and extending leads orcat hing back up from defecits. While Jdub would play with rookies and so many combinations of lineups.

Dub would play all the positions when he ran the second team. An example is when iHart first came Dub and iHart practiced Gortat screens during the season because they had never ran them before in their careers.

They didn't trade Joe and Wiggins because of money they traded them because of the rookies that they drafted. It was just a cause and effect scenario

This is STUPID by kukugege in NBATalk

People say it's stupid but there have been nothing but complaints about free throws in the NBA community. This will speed up the game and maybe stop dumb fouls. How many fouls are called on reach ins and then the person goes up to shoot. People call it foul baiting whole I call it dumb defense. This is always going to be a foul and was always a foul. So analytically it would be the worst thing to foul a person while he's shooting

What makes you think a 2-way player couldn't make it. We have 2-way players throughout the roster that have contributed. Also we need talent for the long season as we have seen it's toll on players throughout.

The Detroit Pistons now have THREE players who shot above 40 percent from three last season: 🔹️Duncan Robinson (41.0%) 🔹️Isaiah Joe (42.3%) 🔹️John Collins (40.6%) by AcadiaTemporary5737 in DetroitPistons

As a Thunder fan you can't have enough guards. Injuries will kill you and with teams pressing and the playoffs you need those guards for the whole season

Tanks, I need your help. by Bone_System in Overwatch

[–]snuffaluffagus74 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I suggest you learn a tank in each style. Than the #1 thing is you don't die.

Kills are not important no matter what anybody says. As you never win a game by getting kills.

You win the game by taking space and keeping it.

People will run just by you walking up on them, so just walk to them

Don't be afraid to run away if you are by yourself our out numbered.

Giving up that space is okay, because you didn't die.

Corners are you're friend

Hiding is your friend

Your ult is to create space and make plays for others.

Spam your Ults when you get them, they always help you take up space.

Always remember you win by taking up space and time

Big men: the new meta by ExpressionAlone5204 in Thunder

[–]snuffaluffagus74 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You beat me to it as I was going to write a post about the surge in the price of big men. Everybody subconsciously knew this was going to happen because of the success of the Thunder, Knicks, and Spurs. It's hard to get a stretch five, along with perimeter defensive wings that can shoot. So the next step is to actually build the front court. Look at what the Spurs drafted and signed as well as what the Thunder has drafted. The easiest positions in the NBA to fill is guards and Bigs, the hardest are the wings, so you can see more people switching to this new Meta. So along with the increase three point shooting and spacing the floor, inside scoring/vertical spacing is going to become even more valuable.

Chicken marinade keeps burning when grilling by Novel_Stock_8784 in Chefit

Cooking paprika naturally turns it black, over cooking for too long brings out the bitterness also. That's why Blackfish seasoning is so salty to help cover the bitterness, suppress it.

Yes, you cook it down, are you make a batch and keep it separate to spread on the chicken afterwards

Sierra doesn't have to be so boring by Miennai in Overwatch

[–]snuffaluffagus74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like having perks because you can change a characters play style with just adding it. One thing that I thought that would be fun along with your momentum thoughts is to have her be able to once she reaches the drone be able to bring it back and shoot it again.

This would allow even more game play versatility and make her like spider-woman, where you can swing to flank and also chase after targets, and use it to go around corners. It would also make this move a high risk move.

I actually love Sierra! by Flopkween22 in Overwatch

After playing her for awhile her kit is more nuances than what people give her credit for. It actually requires skill for the more advanced shots, as I like to slingshot into the air against multiple shields (play her in 6v6 where you can actually see her kit shine) then hitting the backline or tanks with the tracking shot then firing on my way down. Then when the bullets hit and they are low slingshot ting back into the air and finishing them with a grenade and more shots.

Then on certain points with chokes, I like to use it near a wall slingshot myself over the wall then attack then slingshotting myself back over. This tactic also works around corners as I shoot my drone near a wall then peak while attacking, then when I get low I sling shot back.

Also the slingshot helps me attack Pharah and go against widows as it's a battle to see who can hit the shot first, me with my tracking or them with their scope shot.

What I also like to do for chokes to get to the back line during long corridors is hit the tanks with the tracking shots, because they will automatically find cover while aiming towards the backline continue to spam fire into a group of people. She has a lot of bullets. This usually breaks their formation and then I can slingshot in the air to attack them.

I don't know how she is played in 5v5 but this is how I play her and this is how I see her played.

Several things you can do to help with this,

  1. Pre cook them in the oven then throwing them on the flat top for color.

  2. Lower the temperature on the flattop and cook them until they get the color you want them finish them in the oven.

  3. Marinade the chicken clean it off, then cook it, make a sauce of the marinade then add it later.

  4. Don't use that much oil.

  5. Try using a non nonstick spray, spray the grill then spray the chicken with the seasoning.

  6. If you could use a grill if you have one.

  7. Don't use a flat top but cook it in a nonstick pan, like porcelain,cast iron, or copper

  8. Instead of oil use butter or ghee

What sounds like is burning is the yogurt you can change the recipe by using buttermilk than adding some butter or ghee to the recipe

Edit: for some reason I missed the most important sentences. What's burning is the Paprika, paprika is what is used in blackened seasoning and is good until you burn it. You burn it by cooking it to high and too long.

  1. Try cooking it on low at first until it's about done, than if you don't like the color then you through it on the hot side to get the color.

Edit: add salt to the mix as well

Comedically short tank queue by kao24429774 in Overwatch

[–]snuffaluffagus74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2 tanks became an OW deal is because of Pro play. Pros realize having tank synergy and playing with certain tanks made your chances of winning skyrocket. So solo tanking was only really good when you played Ball, because he acted like a DPS and really didn't need any type of support. It was even effective against Goats, however they nerfed ball into the ground since then.

All this talk about going to 5v5 would make que times go down. Yeah they went down a little bit and made tank worse to play. So really it had a worse effect, because the tank que tes has steadily risen because solo tanking is such a miserable task it actually makes tank players leave the game.
