Great game last night, two talented teams battling until the end….

Everytime I start to believe THABO sucks, he plays one of these games where he shows he unique in the way he plays…. I loved that player cam comment by Chris Paul, “What happened to the good old days when point guards guarded point guards ?” Knowing that THABO can SHUT DOWN Tony Parker & Chris Paul is a sigh of relief…. Now about those big guys….

I wonder how many votes Hasheem Thabeet can get for comeback player of the year ???? Probably none since he never was considered a player in the first place…. I AM ON THE HASHEEM THABEET BANDWAGON though, something about him makes me smile…. I am a Hasheem Thabeet fan !!!!

I am thankful that the THUNDER are my team, OKC’s team, OKLAHOMA’S TEAM !!!! Looking forward to the dismantling of the Celtics on Friday night….

[...] Paul played his worst game of the season (nine points on 2-for-14 shooting), but as Mayberry notes in his blog, Thabo Sefolosha had a lot to do with that… Thabo Sefolosha was the player of this game. [...]

Lets give credit to Bledsoe as well. He has really improved and gave Maynor fits with his defense. And let’s be honest Maynor is not 100% yet either.

Patience with this team and Maynor are musts.

Other thoughts:

-Thabeet? Who would have thought?

-Thought we were passed the end game, can’t get the ball to KD issues. Guess not.

-Turnovers and offensive rebounds by the Clips. Gotta get better here.

-Great win

-At this point Memphis and the Clips look like the 2 favorites coming out of the West.

[...] Darnell Mayberry: “Though he got the Sefolosha-Westbrook assignment right, the one thing I didn’t like from Brooks tonight was not using Sefolosha on Jamal Crawford more, if at all. It seemed Brooks could have subbed Sefolosha early and brought him back to corral Crawford. But that didn’t happen. Maybe it was because Thabo was doing such a tremendous job on Paul that Brooks picked Crawford as his poison. Can’t blame him for that. But watching the twin Kevins, Durant and Martin, try to slow Crawford was painful. He toyed with both and walked out with yet another routine 20-point night off the bench.” [...]

I agree that Maynor has not been enough of a factor this season and its hurting the bench and requires Durant to play more minutes with them, but he did have that great Dish to Thabeet for his dunk tonight so he wasn’t a complete non-factor.

He wasn’t on him a great deal but there was at least one possession where Thabo was guarding Crawford and he got an and-one on him.

Do you keep ripping Maynor because you like Jackson so much? Maynor did a great job of distributing last night. A lot of the reason Collison and Thabeet got some easy buckets is because Maynor was drawing the defense out and finding them open.
