@FreeFezzyFel/JG22 I have all three threads open at the moment. XD
@ou_sas ME TOO!!
Everybody into the van: http://www.dailythunder.com/2012/10/thunder-waive-rautins-orton-and-thompson/
@Jooseppi Is there candy?
@EatSleepThunder Sure.
Anyone else see Marcus Lattimore's career end?
@Arent Pretty emotional. Really sad for him.
The Thunder shot 41 percent from the corner last season. a top 5 mark. It will be interesting and a positive development if they do try to get certain guys in the corner more often than they have in the past and if they can convert at a reasonable rate (Thabo, Serge etc.).
Darnell MayberryThe Thunder has waived Andy Rautins, Hollis Thompson and Daniel Orton...DeAndre Liggins has won the 15th spot.
@ou_sas
And now they can turn their attention to other business????????????
@ou_sas
Just a little bummed for Ortin though . . .
@ThunderChick2010 @ou_sas I'm more bummed for Orten.
@EatSleepThunder @ThunderChick2010 @Jooseppi @ou_sas Now he can get a day job as a russell westbrook look a like
@ThunderChick2010 @Jooseppi @ou_sas What about Ortun? Oh yeah... he retired a long time ago.
@ThunderChick2010 @Jooseppi @ou_sas Yeah we can sign Ortyn to a dleague contact
@Jooseppi @ou_sas
Not to mention Ortan . .
Sad all the way around.
@ou_sas NOOOO HOOOOLLLLLIIIIISSSSSS
(Didn't Orton sign a dleague contract, doesn't he get to go to the dleague, and we can call him up if we want to?)
@EatSleepThunder @ou_sas No.
@ou_sas Yay! :D
Even though it was pretty obvious, I'm still happy for him.
@ou_sas OMG the guy that played by far the most minutes and was clearly the best got the spot.
@Jooseppi #PruitiEffect?
@ou_sas yessssssss
Yo so the DT Overflow League is supposed to draft today, but we still have an odd number of teams? Fix this, somebody.
@duhsweetness I'll join, if you need somebody. Just tell me info.
@EatSleepThunder @duhsweetness Yahoo > League ID: 54491, PW: RoyceYoung
@ou_sas @duhsweetness Done.
I'm sure you'll get a kick out of my slogan:
CAUSE WE GOT THABEET! WE GOT THABEET! WE GOT THABEET! YEAH! WE GOT IT!
@ou_sas @duhsweetness I spent about a whole minute looking for the join league button....
@duhsweetness It's tomorrow. Still time for either one more, or, since BallSoHarden moved up, I was thinking about asking if he'd mind dropping just to give us an even number of teams.
@ou_sas I'm outta here. Can't even remember what day things happen. 2010 has been a crazy year I'll tell ya that much.
@duhsweetness its drafting tomorrow?
@cemitten I FORGOT WHAT DAY IT WAS.
ugh. I just saw Lattimores injury from today. That wass terrrible looking and really sad for him.
i just love how all these announcers, espn analyst, ect...just think the thunder are gonna kick their feet like *gee golly garsh* guess we had our chance huh boys *hangs head, walks to locker room* maaaaan, maybe one day, we can go back to the finals. All this talk of the heat 3peating, lakers going one last run, spurs last run, even denver being the *new sleek and sexy team* are just that..stories. The only REAL story i care about is seeing our boys go and redeem themselves. Yes i know, nothing is guaranteed in this world, but i see the talent, i see the heart, i see the will to win, the rage, the love, and the everything this team has. We as thunder fans are some lucky folks you know that~
heres to the new season :D .
@Legendary_Dork Thunder get plenty of media love.
@justin_mia really now? cause ive seen barely ANY on us. Its always the heat, or the lakers. blah blah blah. Even some of the east coast teams that gave miami a run for their money dont get any love. Pacers, even boston. 80% of what ive heard from espn or otherwise has the lakers and heat finals. im dead serious..so thats love to you?
dude Espn is not the "media" as a whole. Broaden your horizons.
@Legendary_Dork How many national TV games do the Thunder have? Just wait.
that video is awesome,,cept for all the lebron :P
Good morning everyone

Good Morning, DT! We've gone just over four months since our last game that meant anything (Thunder legacy-wise) and now we only have just over four DAYS to wait. :)
@ThunderChick2010 ONLY 4 MONTHS?!!
Seemed like an eternity.
@EatSleepThunder
June 21, to be exact . . .
Would*
I miss Braum's so damn much. Closest thing to it here in AZ wouldnt probably be DQ. :(
@supreme35 @ou_sas @ThunderChick2010 @EatSleepThunder Then you've never had a latina girlfriend.
@justin_mia @ou_sas @ThunderChick2010 @EatSleepThunder Nothing ever beats bacon egg and cheese on a bagel. Nothing.
@justin_mia @ou_sas @ThunderChick2010 FLAG'D AS OFF-TOPIC
just kidding :P
@EatSleepThunder @ThunderChick2010 Smh the gif painted the picture well enough lol
@ou_sas @ThunderChick2010 @EatSleepThunder Chorizo and eggs = best breakfast.
@ThunderChick2010 When he posts his doe-cap, be sure to re-recap it to him.
@EatSleepThunder @ThunderChick2010 1 word answer: Delicious.
@EatSleepThunder @ou_sas

But I'm not having ice cream for breakfast . . .
@ou_sas @ThunderChick2010 No idea what Braum's is, so I'll put it on my DT hobo bucket list to go there.
@EatSleepThunder
I don't think cleandoe ever caught that comment . . .
@ThunderChick2010 @EatSleepThunder Still not a bad start to the day. :D
@supreme35 @ThunderChick2010 So you never got to see this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LkLKfpK741M
@ou_sas @EatSleepThunder
Except I've missed breakfast--blaming DT After Dark--so it's coffee and cinnamon roll for me. :)
@ThunderChick2010 Wait til my partner in crime, George Weasley shows up. It will only get worse from there...
@ThunderChick2010 @EatSleepThunder Sigh... I watched up to when our players went through the tunnel. No way was I watching the celebration.
@ThunderChick2010 @EatSleepThunder Mmmmmmm... Braum's....
/Homer'd
@EatSleepThunder @ou_sas
I've got KellOne's video stuck in my head for the day, I'm afraid, so:
Screw you guys, I'm going to Braum's.
@ou_sas @ThunderChick2010 Yeah... I gotta wait for you to catch up. Then during the game threads I'll zoom past you
/cemitten'd
@EatSleepThunder @ThunderChick2010 You're going out of your way this morning to stay stuck at 8k likes, aren't you? :P
@ThunderChick2010 Oh... I see, your one of those Laker bandwaggoners.
@EatSleepThunder
I did as Legendary_Dork described . . . made myself watch to the bitter end. Watched our guys walk off the court and down the tunnel while LeBron and company made love to the trophy. (Things are gonna be different this year.)
@ThunderChick2010 I remember that day.... the day I skipped thunder game to go to a party :P
I'm glad I did, the game sounded brutal.
