View from the enemy: Truth About It
January 18th, 2012. Riding a seven-game win streak and heading to D.C. to take on a one-win Wizards squad, the Thunder completely fell on their face, losing 105-102.
Let’s hope they’ve learned from that experience. And the Thunder also have this going for them: The Wizards are somehow even worse this season. They still don’t have John Wall, and their top scorer is Jordan Crawford.
Except take note of this: December 4th, 2012. The Wizards somehow beat the Heat, 105-101. So they can do it. And the Thunder best not be taking the Wiz lightly.
Washington coming in: They’ve lost five straight and nine of their last 10. They last played Sunday, losing to Miami.
Three Big Things
1. No O. The Wizards offense is so hilariously bad that if the Thunder allow more than 95 points, they’ve done messed up.
2. That guy. That said, who’s going to be the random guy that steps up and has a surprisingly big time? My vote goes to Cartier Martin.
3. Just don’t lose. I mean, that’s really it. These are the types of losses you really regret. Dropping one to a decent Nets team or someone happens. But there’s really no excuse for losing to a team as bad as the Wizards. It only happens if you don’t show up.
Tip at 6:00 CT. Roll Thunder.








ND picked again.
i can appreciate what Durant is trying to pull.. and his complete numbers are something to definitely appreciate.. but he seems almost unwilling to just put his treads down and say "that's enough".. i want the KD back that could take over basketball games at will and wasn't afraid to be a little selfish.. his willingness to share the ball helps at times, but he is passing up open opportunities for himself far to often, and sadly he isn't the best passer which is leading to a disgusting turnover margin for a player of his caliber.. bring back the Durant of old and we turn this team around in a night
@ChilamBilam12 I think he is balancing scoring and passing just fine. It was terrible at start of the season though.

@novelisticbee0 i was born. i commented. i passes to the next thread
11 rebound tonight though boi! I'm asking for a raise
@1 Knee 4 Points 5 Rebounds 35 Million Dollars You were actually good tonight. I don't know if that switch on Beal was your idea, but throughout the game you were the only one trying to get a defensive rebound.
@1 Knee 4 Points 5 Rebounds 35 Million Dollars i laughed.
Kings will beat the Grizz at home. Heard it here first!
Team's record w/ Maynor as backup PG: 21-4(.809)
Team's record w/ Jackson as backup PG: 5-4(.556)
@Sigmund Jackson is the cancer! I knew it! All people named Jackson. Michael, Reggie, Janet

@MJOKC @Sigmund Yep Jackson is telling KD - leave everyone open.
@MJOKC @Sigmund Perkins - ignore the rebounds
@Sigmund Yeah, this is all on Jackson.
What's good, is we still get the Wizards back in OKC. That's what sucked about last season. We lost that game in D.C. and didn't even get a chance to get them back because of the schedule.
@Old Man Game Its seems like karma in that we blew them 2 years ago and now we can't beat them.
@ThunderWins We blew them?
@ThunderWins LOL I think I just needed a good laugh.
@Old Man Game *out of course
And the Spurs lose, 88-95. Time to calm down a bit?
@lethalizer I have to admit that does make me feel a bit better.
@Old Man Game @lethalizer Me too, but I don't want the team to feel better about it. Hulk mad. Hulk smash! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2uaPZdhxnek
@Old Man Game @lethalizer Now the media is just going to go crazy over the LA Clippers
@MJOKC @ThunderWins @Old Man Game They can lose to bad teams too though. Lost at home vs. Hornets?
@MJOKC @ThunderWins @Old Man Game @lethalizer yeah, they lose to bad teams just like us.
@ThunderWins @lethalizer Probably.

@MJOKC Cool reminder that losses happen, all I'm saying. Took me like 30 mins to recover too, but I'm feeling better now.
@lethalizer nope. We need to go banans just. This team needs some fire in its belly during the longest road trip of the season
@GervinReincarnated @lethalizer http://goo.gl/BZ3Sz
@lethalizer nope time to go bananas http://goo.gl/BZ3Sz
@OBoy Jones III @lethalizer http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LH5ay10RTGY
@OBoy Jones III @lethalizer 30 million views.... i dont know if im stupid for not making it myself or if were stupid for watching it
@OBoy Jones III Shouldn't have fallen for that. My eyes hurt now.
And Avery Bradley is back, and Boston is immediately better. But I'm personally glad we had Cole Aldrich for a few years instead of Bradley.
What happened to all the Anthony Davis talk? I haven't heard anything about him in months, it seems like.

@MJOKC THAT'S true. Almost forgot.
@novelisticbee0 he had an alley oop to put the Spurs away
At least Spurs and Knicks lose as well
@GervinReincarnated
Oh, so we're in good company. I feel better now. (Actually, I kinda do.)
@ThunderChick2010 Me too. Now i'm only kind of pissed off instead of irate
wow, i didnt realize you could flag someone for disagreeing with their position (id never hit the flag button before) now that i know its all good, prepare.. oh, prepare for some serious flogging of flagging!
@RRRWHATEVER I can also ban people. Beware! :)
This comment has been deleted
@MJOKC Man.... @mrs.dailythunder is lucky i love her and her work here so much... or id go flag crazy on people... dont wanna blow up the inbox though....

just gonna leave this here

Spurs going to lose to Hornets by double digits unless they came make a shot.
@novelisticbee0 Not making a shot sounds eerily familiar
@KellOne Too soon guy. Too soon. Lol
@novelisticbee0 how much time is left?
