Can C's stay healthy for a full game?

[SHAQATTACK]

Nice ... Smart gets a T before the second half even started.

What was T for? Okc broadcast didn’t say.

I didn't catch it. I just saw OKC shooting the free throw.

knowing Marcus ...probably sum n he said .....can't repeat it here no how ... .        honestly ...dat refs momma is probably a good lady

Can C's stay healthy for a full game?

No. That's why I think all of the talk about "just wait until they're healthy" is irrelevant. They're never gonna be healthy.

Wait wait wait - if that's a shooting foul in what world is that not a goaltending call??

[Neurotic Guy]

Jaylen on bench or in locker room?

I see....

[RPGenerate]

For the past month, Tatum and Hayward have been our clear 1a and 1b in terms of play.

[jpotter33]

Not sure why we didn't continue to hammer it home to Jayson after scoring ten straight.

[fairweatherfan]

After all these injuries suddenly our bench rotation seems a lot stronger.

[jpotter33]

Nice Brown. Good to see him back in, too.

[Neurotic Guy]

This is one of those games that almost every 3 looks like it's going in.  42% and they've had a bunch of close ones.

Exactly. One of the commentators said something about the shot wasn't going to ever reach the height of the rim, but we don't know that. The shot's gotta be left alone to see where it goes.

Another bailout call on a great defensive possession.

Pretty sure if a shot is descending but is below rim level it's not goaltending - it's why it's legal to catch airballed shots. And then that tends to get fudged for shots that have no chance of making it to the rim. Still another bizarre one.

My word, does Tatum look good. 

Defensive clamp down and C's can take hold of this game.  So far, each team is giving back leads.

I couldn't tell if that shot was gonna fall short, but maybe I didn't have a good angle on it.
