GT: Indiana Pacers (23-33) @ OKC Thunder (31-25) "The Russell Westbrook Show"

[Cowboy Thunder]

At the end of the first quarter:

Westbrook has 9 pts, 4 rebs, 6 ast


Ibaka with 11 pts, 6 rebs, 2 blocks

[Jef]

one question i can't get out of my head -

when we get everyone back, do we dare go with the following lineup at SOME point down the stretch or in the playoffs in a huge game. would brooks possibly have the courage to pull this off and just decimate one of these pretenders.

PG Russell Westbrook
SG Kevin Durant
SF Serge Ibaka
PF Enes Kanter
C Steven Adams

i honestly think we could pull it off against a lot of teams. would be one of the most insane lineups ever.

oh, and in case we needed 3 point shooting:

PG DJ Augustin
SG Russell Westbrook
SF Anthony Morrow/Kyle Singler
PF Kevin Durant
C Serge Ibaka

the bottom line is that we have 2 guys who can play 3 positions: westbrook (1-3), kd (2-4, plus Point Forward), and Ibaka (3-5).

[Budadiiii]

I really wish Waiters could shoot.

Or finish.

[Jef]

another serious question, and it is absolutely hilarious to consider:

as i watch dion waiters fly to rebounds and loose balls on the defensive end like never before, i am honestly wondering if the whole "we don't run plays - someone can just clear out" system run by Brooks leads to guys like Waiters fighting harder on the defensive end. a steal or a rebound for dion = a shot for dion.

lol

Brooks gets his team to play, but im not sure if that's the sacrifice he makes.

[Graviton]

Everyone playing with so much energy, hustle plays all around. Love seeing this new ball movement from Brooks. He may be a retard but he knows how to use new players, at least until Durant gets back.

[Profound]

Looked like Waiters had an open layup.

[bluechox2]

time to trade durant...westbrook is clearly alpha

[Cowboy Thunder]

Waiters...ughhhhhh

[Cocaine80s]

Reggie Jackson 15/5/4 at half time... yikes.


Looks like OKC ****ed up again

Thunder up by 30, every game for the rest of the year

Before the trade I didn't mind having Waiters, but now I don't know
