    I really don’t wanna be the Debbie downer here, but I just want to give my 2 cents. The best approach for JI is that we have no idea who he is as a ball player anymore. He hasn’t played competitive basketball in 30 months. If he can make it back to what he used to be pre-injury (which mind you, was still very much a project player with high upside), I don’t expect it to happen quickly. I’m choosing the expect the worst and hope for the best mentality personally, but I also don’t wanna pee in anyone’s corn flakes who chooses to approach it differently 

    All we need from JI is to be a defensive presence. As long as he focuses on what he's always done well which is defend and forgets the meaning of the stupid eurostep then he'll be an asset. He's also bulked up quite a bit so obviously staying healthy is gonna be key for him.

    Shaq and Horace also weighed about twice what Bol does lol… 

     

    there might have been confusion in my initial post, I typed Bol as the 7th/8th man off the bench, I meant 7th/8th man in the rotation, so 2nd/3rd off the bench. By no means am I trying to say Bol is a bottom of the bench guy 

    Bol's a small forward period. He's not a paint defender & Sabonis has been eating our lunch every game we've played against him since we drafted him and traded his rights away for the kid with an Osprey nest on his head.

    Al Horford (rest) and George Hill (neck spasms) will not play tonight in Oklahoma City against the Magic, said Thunder coach Mark Daigneault.

    We gotta take full advantage!!

    Third game of the season and they're resting Horford....???? This is why I'm getting more turned off by the NBA every single year.

    I agree. We said when he was robbed in the dunk contest,  he might return after all star break playing with avengence.

    I love it Aaron embraces his role.... He's a good player with power in the paint and defense... It's when he decides to try and become Kobe that I have a problem with him. He's a decent spot up shooter.... He sucks at pulling up and taking jumpers.
