‘It doesn’t end our world’ OKC Thunder 2013-14 Season Thread

[cfountain]

nice showing from Reggie, Lamb, Adams, and Roberson.

Perry gonna be in Tulsa he does look bigger tho and that was one of his goals Played okay defensively.

if we can survive this 1st month and so, I think Reggie and Lamb can be pretty damn decent coming off the bench. Really impressed by Lamb's vision and effort on D.

 

[The War Report]

Perkins is in mid season form.

Adams has to work on the turnovers & fouls in 15 minutes he had 3 turnovers & 5 fouls. He looked good other than that. Lamb looked good, did a little bit of everything. I don't know about Thabo taking 11 shots. He did play for that team during the lockout so maybe that's why he shot so much.

Fisher played 19 minutes which I'm sure will only increase once the regular season starts At this point with Hash & Adams here, I think we should just let Orton go & sign another PG. Orton looked better during summer league but having 3 project centers seems like overkill & if Reggie or Fisher went down we would be in serious trouble.

no way we keep Orton too.

and Roberson is gonna break into the rotation at some point. dat defense and rebounding with the ability to finish around the rim. Not shy about taking that corner 3 either. Needs to make it tho

It seems like Roberson is going to replace Collison as the all hustle guy when Nick eventually retires.



Turns out Jarrett isn't with us during camp so we don't have to cut him & lose his rights. He is signing with Tulsa for the year though so he'll be in camp next year unless something happens.

yeah, I saw he was going to Tulsa a lil while ago. Presti probably gave him some kind of promise for the future.

I wonder will Abrines actually come over in a few years.

How in the fukk is Fisher still getting playing time?

we need him right now.

shyt is terrible though having to rely on Fisher to contribute. I already expect him to go 4 or 5 games at some point & miss every shot he takes.

$8,727,437 Perk salary this year


$9,404,342 Perk next year salary .... man go ahead and amnesty him or bring him off bench.

I think he gets amnestied next year. Next year is the last year to use the amnesty clause and I'm sure they'll be ready to get younger at the position after this year. Hell, I'd take Adams over Perk now.

Really wish we would let that 5 position be dictated by matchup instead of same starting 5 all year. a rotation of Adams, Thabeet, Collison, Serge(start small) being dictated by the game is way more attractive than trotting Perk out there

 

[DoubleJ13]

Adams catching the ball & finishing of a pick & roll is

Need these games to be on at more normal times though watching basketball at 9am or 2 pm just feels wierd

 

[inndaskKy]

KD gunning for The King's crown..

 

[DoubleJ13]

Reggie looking good in the role of Russy. KD out there doing everything. Serge playing like we need him to all season. Adams catching & finishing

I don't know what to think of Lamb, he couldn't make a shot but he was doing everything else. His defense is a good surprise he has had 2 blocks in both games & is rebounding better than I expected.

Only thing overly bad I can say about these 2 games so far is that turnovers are still a problem. Everybody that played today had atleast 1 (Lamb & KD combined for 9 ) & everybody that played in the last game had atleast 1 except Perk. Can't afford that even more without Russy.

 

[cfountain]

Reggie

like you said, hard to be mad at Lamb when he's doing every thing else so well seems he's trying to shoot himself out the slump. good looks, I'm sure he'll start making em. Glad he's doing everything else tho make up for it.

Adams should be starting for Perk a big with touch around the rim

 

[OTC]

Was the game shown on NBAtv or was it on streamed online? I wish I was able to catch this

If Adams can just finish strong at the rim during the season that would be huge, somebody needs to finish all the easy looks that usually go to a waste

Glad to here Serge is being more aggressive offensively, its about time
