Midway through the third period and OKC is still shooting 65% and 77% on 3's with only 3 turnovers.

Worst defensive game of the year so far.

22 flipping points down...Thad and IT have ZERO minutes...how the hell would it be any damn worse to see if they might offer a different look, for crying out loud?

Fuck this team. Go DBacks. Those young dudes go hard. Nothing like this pussified bunch of zombies.

Time to start selling the paper bags with the eye holes in front of the stadium before the games?

Vogel is an idiot. Why challenge that? Clearly a foul.

Close race between who has the skinniest legs: Bol vs. Holmgren.

Wonder if we can beat our biggest point differential of 48 points...go Thunder? Make it memorable for something at least. I 'was' going to buy tickets for the Cavs game...rethinking that now...

I think it's a little odd that Booker essentially called for more PT for Thad and Vogel was like nah bro Poobanks got this.

Frank lost this team, if he ever even had it to begin with.

Booker seems to be idling in cruise control this game....

They're suck in that "dribble around on the perimeter and run down the clock" mode.

Allen and Gordon are a combined 2/17 on 3's.

Gordon has 6 points on 10 FGA. You can't convince me IT can't do better than that.

Hell, Bobster, at least f'ing TRY it, right? Like whatever the hell they're doing, down 25, like...is it bloody working? The water boy could do a better job on rotations than Vogel is right now. He's bloody mailing it in on these nights...ludicrous! Does he 'want' to be fired? It seems like it..
