EZ Fix..... We just need to do our best San Antonio impersonations the way they move the ball on offense and our starting 5 will score more. For example... can anyone beat the clipers when they are moving the ball around like that? You might end up on the wrong end of somebody's poster. They worry me more than anyone in the west.
My 2 thoughts....
(1) - The team stops moving on offense when Russ starts callling his own number too often. Its great that Westbrook can take over a game and get a shot whenever he wants but it sometimes kills the offensive chemistry when he does it 2 or 3 times in a row early in the game when it is not needed.
(2) - Teams have obviously figured out how to knock the ball out of Durants hands when he drives. Didnt it happen like 50 times last night? (Some fouls, some turnovers and some out of bounds) Durant needs to recognize that and start pulling up early for the shot or hold it like Ibaka when he gets in traffic.
Any agreements or disagreements with my comments?
Anybody notice how close Russells circus shot was to a three pointer? I was watching the replay and noticed his foot was only about a half step over the line. He relased the ball before the other foot hit the ground. It was awesome though just how it was.
This is wrong but so right. With the Fisher pickup, "The force is with us"
Fisher is like the thunders Yoda. He still has some fire left in him. He's older than the other guys and he has a lot to teach our young Jedi's. Im glad we have him. Sha'll we start calling Westbrook "Skywalker" for his high flying dunks?
I disagree. If the ball touches the rim, it should reset. On a shot, it does have to leave the hand, but that is because the rim not in the picture.
Also, yes, many areas lost the game for us, but this was something I just had not seen discussed.
Shot clock violation - Has anyone mentioned that iBlocka's dunk wasnt a violation of the shot clock. It appeared that the ball wasnt out of his hand when the light came on, but before that it looked as if the ball easily touched the rim before the light as he was taking the ball over the rim for the dunk. If the ball touches the rim 1st, then doesnt that count?
