Darnell do you think thunder will add defensive coach next year if the defense doesn’t improve this year. Do you have any candidates in mind.

Darnell, read the good article. It is disappointing that Brooks doesn’t acknowledge the Adams departure. He never seems to have any urgency to their problems, plus to the deficiencies not just on d. For instance, his decision not to play Ibaka much in the Heat game because he wanted to have a smaller lineup. A strange decision in a game that could have easily won.

Also, my opinion would be to put the4 ball more in KD’s hands. If you notice, RW dribbles way to much and is rarely in a position to pass the ball unless he is driving. It’s a nit pick but when KD has 43 with about 4 minutes to go, he rarely saw the ball as Russell controlled it and then Green launched that ridiculous three. WHy weren’t they more aware of Durant?

Darnell, thanks. I live in NYC but my heart is with the Thunder, so I get ultracritical. Chuck

Chuck, unfortunately this is the reason our business is dying. People don’t read the newspaper anymore. You want info, insight and analysis? All you have to do is pick up the paper.

Darnell, why haven’t any of the Thunder beat team mention their porous defense most likely related to losing Ron Adams to the Bulls who not coincidentally lead the league in defense?

You have to fair when covering this team which has stepped slightly backward especially in their defense and lack of rebounding. But then again Green is not a premier player in spite of the hype. He is outrebounded and played against almost every quality opponent.
