Re: Frog's NBA regular season thread...
I like that wager with the Thunder's struggles to score most of the time.
Even if Indiana puts up 110 against them they may not score 85 themselves......
Good segue for my write up. Okies are scoring challenged. Except one super fluky game vs. Jazz, when they scored a miserable 29 points in the first half and ended with season high 97, they top out at 88. In fact they are always right there, 88, 87, 85, 83 and a 77. More bad news is thier highest fg% shooter Wilcox is out. Sprained his knee last night. Okies now thin and tired as they left it all on the floor last night in almost nailbiter vs. Hawks at home. What also helps is other side, Indy, team that should win, only wins games when they D it up. Holding mighty Celtics to 80 and Nets to 79 last game. A complete shutdown 2H, holding Nets to 29 points for the half. Coach wants full time defense. That is what wins his teams games, and the fans in Indiana appreciate it. I think they can hold Okies down, right around that 80 level. And both wins with leads late they ate up clock and ended it, unlike Lakers. Would be a 3 unit play but have stunk at hose.
