OKC fans feeling our Blazer pain finally

It wasn't but a few years ago when we were mired in injury hell and were watching the NBA's golden team of OKC in contention for championships - now the shoe's on the other foot and OKC's fans are scratching their heads. I guess OKC fans never heard of Roy and Oden...

Russell Westbrook will not be made available to the media tonight. He will be evaluated for a blow he took to he head late in tonight's game.
Another injury another loss... Yea i think Thunder's season is pretty much over if he's out too.. Now Russ, No KD... we know how that works out.. I am beginning to think the Thunder are really cursed at this point.. I've never seen a team in all my years of watching the NBA have such a bad string of luck on injuries.. If i was a NBA player i'd be scared to death to come play for the Thunder.

 

Ha! Really? Try losing Durant to a career-ending knee injury (Roy) and a once in a generation center prospect to chronic knee injuries. Then they'd know how it would feel being a Blazer fan in the past decade.

Big babies.

 

They have no idea of the utter depths of despair injuries have driven us to.

 

They'll have their own issues when KD/Westbrook walk out the door. Leaving the flat lands of OKC for nightlife.

 

Geez, what a bunch of whiners. Wesbrick took a knee to the side of the head. It's not like that is a career threatening injury, or will even require surgery and a lengthy rehab.

Or maybe, since Westbrick is so boneheaded, that's the equivalent of bone-on-bone in his case...

BNM

 

LOL he was faking that knee to the head symptom. You could tell he was lookin for a little attention there, the little bitch.

 

I mean yeah it probably hurt, but come on man, dont pretend you're walkin all sideways and shit.

 

lol. He must have just become an NBA fan a couple years ago. So sad.

 

myopic fans.

they gone learn today

 

Houston is one of the only franchises to have possibly more injury gripes than us. Losing Yao and McGrady to injuries. Back in the day robbed of Sampson when he took a young Hakeem to the finals. Now Dwight Howard is out.

The OKC fans are terrible though; might be the dumbest fans in the league. Sure Laker fans are spoiled brats but they aren't clueless. You'll hear half the Thunder crowd cheer for a play 5 seconds after it was whistled dead.

 

What do you expect? They stole that franchise from Seattle.

They have no sense of history, struggle or any trials and tribulations. Its a new basketball city, as is painfully obvious when you watch their Basketball Broadcasts and the games in OKC on TV with the low Basketball IQ crowd. The people don't even know what the fuck is going on in the game. They won't know a foul is missed or not unless an announcer says something, or they copy someone else next to them.

Tonight, you see in Portland, you hear groans, complaints, the crowd gets into it. Westbrook touches the ball after making a shot and tosses it up? A large number of the crowd ahhs calling for a delay of game. Most of the people in OKC have no idea what the fuck that is.

 

The last few years have me questioning the Oden injury misfortune though... If he was healthy could he have turned into a fat drunk lazy Shawn Kemp? The Cavs and Blazers Kemp not the young one. Maybe he goes on some Larry Sanders binge, robs a crack house with Robert Swift and ends up in some African boat with Bison Dele. A lot would have had to go right besides health for Oden to be a quality player for us. Oden might have been a bigger disappointment if healthy. He has major mental problems.

 

Yeah, ESPN commented on Wednesday how astute our crowd was; giving the huge round of applause to I think it was Kaman for a statistically unimpressive shift but making a number of critical plays.

 

Not directed at you, but why does eveyone only remember the bad Kemp? Not the good Kemp?

I have no memory of the bad Kemp. Only this:

 

He was battling major depression which is completely understandable seeing as to what he went through just to get onto the court and then had set back after setback. He wasn't out of shape in college and it wasn't until the second knee injury that he really started to gain weight. If Oden had been healthy I fully think we would be talking about him as one of the best players in the league. We really only got to see him fully healthy for 21 games because the year after MF surgery the player is still getting to trust his leg and except for a few exceptions the player doesn't look the same for a year after he is back. It takes something to really be out of shape if your a starter in the NBA and young especially with everything a team will make you go through, Kemp only became fat Kemp after the lockout and he wasn't the only one who let himself go that year, he was just the only one to never get back into shape. Now Oden in his 30's thats another story.


added the video because... well fuck thats why.

 

Though shit
