“Thunder guard Eric Maynor had a trip to the free throw line… a brief oversight was costly.” I’m so glad you brought this up. My buddies and I in loud city were going crazy about this as Maynor was preparing to shoot his free throws. I couldn’t believe that we had Green and Thabo in there at that moment. We might’ve actually had a shot if Serge and/or Nick would’ve been in there.

“I don’t know this for a fact. But I do know that players do this a lot…” I’ve noticed players doing that before too, but I didn’t realize Maynor (possibly) did that last night. I did think back to that shot, though, after we lost by 3.

Funny comment about the MidFirst thing. I wonder if they are gonna cut that out now or not. I hope not, I think it’s the best in-game entertainment next to Rumble. Plus, I still have hopes of being chosen one of these times to do it.

how long are they going to keep cook and peterson? what can they possibly be adding to the team?? I’m sick of seeing them in suits on the bench. Trade them for someone else who can actually make a shot.

[...] An excellent observation from Darnell Mayberry: “Thunder guard Eric Maynor had a trip to the free throw line to with 3.3 seconds left and the Thunder trailing 112-109. His intent was to make the first and miss the second. He executed the strategy perfectly. But a brief oversight was costly. Thunder coach Scott Brooks failed to put in a big man, either Serge Ibaka or Nick Collison. It left Thabo Sefolosha and Jeff Green to battle for the board. Gentry, meanwhile, subbed in center Robin Lopez for point guard Goran Dragic and fellow big man Channing Frye for forward Grant Hill. And when Maynor missed the second attempt, it was the 6-foot-11 Frye who grabbed the game-clinching rebound.” [...]

Didn’t anyone watch last years game? Grant Hill did the same thing last year.

The Thunder need to quite messing around and just trade for a guy who is money with his 3s otherwise people playing zone will screw us over big time. Maybe KD is right and we’re going to start slumping big time after this great defensive coaching move by the Suns. Make a team that can’t shoot 3s have no choice but to beat you with them. It also works wonders when you have no threat in the paint. I’m dreaming of Nene for Christmas!
