blotsfan 2,112 Posted November 1, 2014 Is there a temporary injured reserve in baseketball like in hockey and baseball? The Thunder should be allowed to bring up some D-League guys. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Phailadelphia Posted November 1, 2014 (edited) Yes. I can't remember the exact qualifiers, but if you have X amount of players injured for more than 3 games it opens up temporary roster spots. So after tonight OKC can sign a couple of players. After Russ has missed 3 games, they can sign one more. But guys already getting minutes ARE its D-league team's players. They'll have to sign guys off the street just to get some bodies on the court. Edited November 1, 2014 by Phailadelphia Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blotsfan 2,112 Posted November 1, 2014 Just seems like its not good for the players to have such a small roster. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Phailadelphia Posted November 2, 2014 Ok so 3 games in OKC's new offense is a dope flex offense. Lots of high or side P&Rs with a lot of off-ball action. I can't wait to see the team at full health running this system. Even the scrubs are getting good looks despite bad spacing on the floor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Phailadelphia Posted November 4, 2014 If tonight's game is any indication, I'm not sure Reggie is on this team past the trade deadline. Ibaka and Perk have pulled down rebounds and looked off Jackson on several occasions tonight, instead looking for Telfair. Wonder if this is about Reggie talking about leaving the team to be a starter elsewhere after the season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BwareDWare94 723 Posted November 4, 2014 Dwight Howard was such a little bitch on the court tonight. Keep blatantly shoving and hitting Noel because the kid was actually helping to defend him well. The 6ers defended Howard brilliantly, tonight. Fronted him with backside help. Dwight decided to revert to childhood and spend the whole game whining. He kept glaring at his teammates and bitching. I saw Jones and Canaan just ignore him, which leads me to believe that his teammates don't like him or take him seriously. I thought last year was an indication that Howard had grown up. Maybe this will be one bad game that frustrated him because he was playing poorly (on offense--he was great on defense) against a bad team, but I don't care for the demeanor that he displayed tonight. He could have been a leader--he decided to be a cry baby. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Milla4Prez63 678 Posted November 4, 2014 Dwight is just a cry baby, and he gets pissy when things don't go his way. The moment I gave up on him was in a game years back against the Bucks where we came from behind in the 4th because of some clutch Jason Richardson threes, but after the game Dwight cried about how he wasn't getting the ball in the 4th. He's a talented player who can dominate and take over games but he's a complete idiot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Phailadelphia Posted November 5, 2014 Serge Ibaka is 6th in made threes this year. Oh, and he's shooting 73% inside the 3-pt line. He is easily the most unique player in the game in terms of skill set. Going to be a real travesty if he isn't voted into the All Star game this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
