    Yes by all means, Luka, listen to a washed up professional wrassler and play and then watch you suffer a torn hamstring that will take you longer than 6 weeks or so to heal! Brilliant!

    The thing about the Thunder is that pretty much everyone on their team from their starters to their bench guys can defend and shoot 3’s - they may not be the most talented team but they are the best team chemistry wise and in executing their game plan.

    It'll never not be funny, seeing a referee looking completely in a different direction from players battling for position.

    They see the flop from the defender flailing to the ground acting like they were shot, and then immediately blow the whistle for the offensive foul even though they have zero idea what happened.

    This league is getting worse every passing day.

    @Salvy

    I’m at a bar restaurant in midtown. Lakers fans next to me crying over the game. Should I break my wine bottle over the head or tell them Lebron sucks?

    Can’t believe we gave up on Hartenstein so early.

    Crying over what? Not even the refs can help them.... They should be enjoying their last 3 games of the season...

    OKC got some clutch players. Stone did all this tanking and we can’t hit a shot.

    @Salvy - told this Hartenstein, but hear the story again.

    the summer he signed with okc. He’s at a club my friend owns on Washington, nice place. I go up to him and his wife, with a black screen “sign with the rockets”

    he starts laughing and his wife takes a pic of it to post on her story.

    fast forward 1 hour later. I get a tap on my shoulder, look back and a giant above me. He’s like, hey bro we can’t drink this. Goodnight.

    hands me a magnum tequila repo he didn’t open. Started laughing and said, Houston fans are always the nicest to me.

    I would trade any of our franchise players for one of OKC bench warmers
