  • Went to first game of season last night. Good times. Reed Sheppard seems kinda dumb. Holiday needs more minutes still. KD "off" night and still drilled 2 of the biggest shots As we all know..

Joe (knee) is out for Tuesday's season opener against the Rockets, Rylan Stiles of SI.com reports.

Williams (wrist) is listed as inactive ahead of Tuesday's regular-season opener against the Rockets, Tim MacMahon of ESPN reports.

It appears that Durant is moving to SG for this season. Meaning they are going with the super big lineup to start.

We all need to keep the hyperbole about the result of tonight’s game in check. A Rockets win does not mean a championship is imminent. Conversely, a road loss to the defending champions and prohibitive favorites to win this year is not the end of the world. It’s a long season. 

have to win opening night to go 82-0

god hearing that nba on nbc intro music gets me fired the fuck up.

Nice block by Reed, then the feed to Adams on the other end that he just couldn't quite lay in there. 

lol, nice flop by Hart. What a douche

Stupid to end the half 

  • Author

oh jesus.  great final 6 minutes of the 1st half and then it ends like that.

Damn I flip on basketball because I wanna see Durant and Rockets

foul not called on Jabari 3 pointer

Caruso flops when he’s getting screened and gets a call

same ole bullshit

What a weirdly officiated sequence. It’s almost like the defending champs are at home and the commissioner is in the stands or something.

I donno if Durant and Amen offsets the ulginess of SandGoon

Yeah this is why I barely watch the NBA anymore

Its just garbage

I could watch just 1v1 where Sanguin moggs Chet all day

Dork just tackling Durant over and over

I’d say the Thunder are gettable. Game Theory while unanimously and emphatically stated the Thunder would defend their title, they ran through starters’ playoff 3 point percentages and they were dogshit. I don’t think anybody was north of 35% and most of were the 20s.

Tari looks so bad trying to score. 

He does. Reed Sheppard does not belong on the court. He's a liability on both ends.

They double Durant Amen can’t just not shoot that wide open 3, let it fly man. He dribbled strait into defenders

Man we gotta get an OT on this first game of the year with the most exciting team va the flop champs

KD’s old ass should have to play another 5 minutes of basketball for missing that free throw. 
 

NBC’s advertisers have to be thrilled with 3 hour basketball games 

If either team can start hitting 3s in OT they will win. Both have been terrible tonight from behind the arc.
