    You hear that? OKC is guaranteed the 8th seed, behind the Blazers.

    Promising future!

    Give what a rest? Those two were giving OKC hummers all night, then once Portland made it a game, they disappeared.

    This is mostly directed at Mixum. All year long he used the Thunder as a reason why KP should be fired, Blazers suck, etc, etc.

    Guess what? Mixum was wrong.....AGAIN.

    I'll support BGrantFan on this one. Ain't right to cut & run when you're behind. Take your lumps like a man.

    I also know that promising future means absolutely nothing! It guarantees you nothing!

    Damn straight. :devilwink:

    OTOH, I feel fairly comfortable in predicting that the NW division is going to be a dog-fight next season.

    VERY promising.

    A) It's Durant and Green's third year in the league. Westbrook's 2nd. And Harden and Ibaka's. first.

    B) Durant is younger than Roy was his rookie year. Durant is leading the league in scoring.

    C) The Thunder were only 23-59 last year. They have made a 26 (maybe 27) game improvement in one fucking season.

    I don't see how any Thunder fan couldn't be THRILLED with that.

    Meanwhile, our star is hurt. Our #1 pick has undergone 2 knee surgeries. Trades/Signings for Camby, Miller, & Howard have made today look great but they won't be in the league when the Thunder hit their stride.

    I will definitely root for the Thunder but I'll be jealous if they pull it off because I want us to beat the Lakers.

    And in an instance it all can change. It means nothing, just something to talk about.

    They can have fun with the Lakers.

    I'm here. I'd still take Durant over Oden for the record. The broken record for those of us that like scorers.

    I don't like the Blazers chances as a road team in the playoffs. But I'm ecstatic that OKC gets a dose of Kobe in the NBA playoffs.
