Pre 9/11, you could bring backpacks to Wolves games. I’d fill mine with a container of leftovers for dinner and a 6 pack of beer. Ride my bike to the game from Uptown, and later, the Northside. Watch KG terrorize opponents. Smoke a heater with Britt on the “patio.” Bliss.

Bummer about Ant but you gotta wonder why he didn’t do this in the offseason, or why Finch routinely plays him in 4th quarters up 30.

At what point do you question both the preparation of the players and OKC’s medical staff and trainers? No other team faces these types of injuries, both nagging and catastrophic, year after year after year.

Three Thunder players had to leave this game because of the Clippers reckless play. Obviously Dub’s injury looks like a season ending thing, but Cason’s shoulder/collar bone didn’t look good either. Fucking insane how the refs were letting this shit slide from the jump.

You knew that Dub injury was bad because immediately after Shai walked over to check on him, he started sobbing into his jersey. Chet dropped to his knees, and Caruso looked on in absolute horror.

Noting that the Clipps, primarily Jackson, Dunn, and Jones Jr. were reckless all night. Jackson was called for 4-5 dangerous moving screens. Dunn is always a headhunter. The refs did nothing to reel them in. Now a DOA team just took out the favorite to come out of the West. Officiating malpractice.

Shai crying in that post game interview when asked about Dub. Damn. This was supposed to be the revenge season. Sending good juju Dub’s way, but it looked like a season ender.

The best case scenario for OKC and Ajay Mitchell is that he finds his groove offensively and becomes the tantalizing piece in a package for a money controlled bigger wing, imo. I just don’t have a ton of faith in 6 foot 3 guards that rely on driving to the basket as their only offensive weapon.

What in the holy hell is wrong with these dipshits?

Does Ajay Mitchell suck? He’s looked terrible.

[Chris Cornell voice] Phoenix Suns Won't you come And badly lose that game

Ant and Melo are going to shatter records for 3pt attempts (and makes) this season. Just absolutely absurd shooting from Ant tonight. He’s gunning for the scoring title and whatever comes with it.

When your MVP guard is committed on the defensive end like this, what's everyone elses excuse?

Jared McCain was 6 for 8 from three tonight. That whimsical little guy!

Also, Wempy growling at himself after Mara swatted him was some next level “this dude is about to commit a heinous diabolical murder” sociopath shit that I have not witnessed in a while. A weird dude. His PR team will have him writing poetry via quill atop a mountain peak tomorrow, no doubt.

I don’t think this game means all that much other than SGA is still the best player in basketball, and OKC is still very, very good. Noteworthy how bad Ajay looked, and how amazing McCain was. Chet battled. That’s all you want.

Anointing Wempy waaaaaaay too early is something I’ll be tracking with every podcast dork this season.

Shai…the silkiest. The smoothest.

McCain looks real good. Ajay looks real bad.

So much of MVP or “face” discourse is narrative driving by “media” with skin in the game. Anointing Wempy before any games have been played is absolutely bizarre, but par for the course for media machine that is pay to play.

That’s a lot of money for Cason, but OKC wouldn’t be the elite defensive unit without him.

Reminder that Wempy’s logo 3 to tie game 1 of the WCF happened solely because Chet was lying on his back under the other basket trying to get a call, causing Caruso to have to play too deep. Chet was horrible in that series, but that one play probably flipped it. None of that shit this year, please.

This dipshit sucks

Ajay’s $ is too good to move, but all things being equal, I’d flip him for a bigger wing defender that can hit the corner 3. He doesn’t provide much that OKC doesn’t already have, and playing him with Shai is just too much iso. I know PDX has a million guards, but Toumani would be sweet on OKC.

Seen enough Brooks Barnhizer. Don’t want to see anymore.

Stirtz is very bad on D. I question what line ups he’s going to be playable in where that’s not an issue. A lot of just getting completely overwhelmed there.

Haliburton is back. Good dude. Glad to see him healthy.

OKC’s lack of anything resembling a functioning offense when SGA isn’t on the court is still very much a thing.

Shai looks like the MVP, the rest of OKC looks like they haven’t played together in 4 months. Really nice shooting from Haliburton to get the big lead to start.

why would anyone ever be asking for a girls reboot

My picks: MVP: SGA (3rd consecutive) ROY: Caleb Wilson DPOY: Wemby 6MOY: Harper MIP: Jaden McDaniels COY: Quin Snyder Clutch: Ant Scoring Title: Luka West: 1. OKC (4th consecutive) 2. Spurs 3. Wolves 4. Houston 5. Denver 6. Lakers 7. Suns 8. Portland 9. Utah 10. Dallas Finals: OKC over Atl in 5.

Ever since I’ve been Berenger/Aday pilled I only care about players 6 foot 11 and taller. Caleb Wilson is not tall enough to pique my interest at this juncture.

When did First Ave tix start costing 88-150 American dollars? Back in MY day I saw Fugazi 3 nights in a row for like $6 a night. All of your hip hop heroes were like $8-12 tickets. This isn’t just inflation. Common answer is lack of venues and predatory fees, but that can’t be the full story.

Still wondering what the Nuggets are trying to do here with Joker’s prime.

Read this Marc Lore pablum out loud. Do it. “The big vision is to create a fully autonomous food platform that’s capable of autonomously planning, cooking, and delivering your food, so that we can make great food much more accessible,” www.fastcompany.com/91606368/mar...

If OKC could trade a few of their 6-foot-3 guys for one 6-foot-9 guy I'd feel a lot better about their chances for winning it all. That back-up unit is shrimpsville.

I think my favorite Wolves this season are Jaden and Joan. No histrionics, no goofy one legged 30 footers, no peacocking after every goddamn play. Just business. Straight business. They are two of the most valuable players on the roster for now and the future.

Ok, Mara looks real good. Whatever they worked with him on this offseason clearly worked, as he didn’t look like he could play 3 consecutive minutes in Summer League without gassing out.

Rudy is like the Mill Valley yoga mom that flew so close to the crystal and essential oil sun that they wound up injecting horse jizz in their foreheads and eating roadkill for clarity and balance.

KAT wasn’t worth his first supermax, I certainly wouldn’t give him another one.

Psst: Mike Conley and DDV were both infamous floppers under Chris Finch.

Man, I don’t know if I can take another season of Finch whining about officiating.

folks, i need some help. poor little girl got hit by car and has a lengthy recovery ahead of her. neighborhood is rallying around her but need some help. this is my A1 organizing it so lmk if you got questions. RT if you can’t help monetarily! www.gofundme.com/f/please-hel...

Dilly getting dumped by Chicago after a handful of games where he seemed to pop a bit is probably a testimony there isn’t much hope for the lad. All-world whiff by Tim Connelly as a draft trade, all-world win to turn that micro-guy into Ayo.

Cut out fer some outside time with the dog homies.
