perk is super right about the rockets tho, yall love amen thompson but i honestly dont like him at all. u cant have a guy playing as point guard that cant shoot. period
teams js listened to the fans i guess. we been sayin make it hard fouls if shai's gonna get the calls anyways
If u think we worried about Minnesota u tweaking
Rockets should have grabbed Harden. Say what you want about his playoff scoring performances, he’s the floor general they need. I don’t really think they would have been forced to get rid of any core pieces either. Him and KD were one hamstring away from an NBA finals last time they played together.
If all teams are at full strength, the Thunder roll to a second chip.
If they get healthy at least can make deep run
Rockets shoulda traded for Jrue Holiday
Ain't perk the same guy that said OKC fs beating the 73-9 warriors record
NBA today is so trash nowadays…Cheney needs to be new host….ratings would go higher
Name another NBA team that would be top of the league record-wise while also being top 5 in games missed to injury. Let's keep it all in context here.
Okc champion🎉
I love how before they played any good teams and were 24-1 people were saying they’d win 73 games and this year would be boring, now that their very injured and losing games obviously, their not contenders
When did a nice suit and sneakers become an acceptable outfit for TV.
Gotta get perk off this man
doubting and hating on the thunder is just free engagement bait. injuries happen the constant overreacting in nba media is just pathetic thunder are still heavy favorites. didn't even have ajay mitchell or jared mccain last year when they finally get healthy they're gonna be very hard to beat
Im a lakers fan but ive always respect coach malone and passion for the game, he is someone you can sit and listen for hours talk about the game
Perk picked Mavs earlier in the season!
As ever, perk takes are stupid. When he said something the opposite happen for every teams
If the refs officiate fairly they will be dethroned. They are a Mickey Mouse team with all those whistles, flopping, and no calls when they hack. We've seen it all season long. When refs officiate games evenly, they lose. If OKC can hack the other team, the other team should be able to as well without getting a whistle. It's that simple. lol
1:51 what got them a championship was hali going down. Lucky chip.
Perk be saying anything
Don’t they know half the team has been hurt this whole time
Why they give this man a job
Listening to Perk talk and envisioning his brain trying to catch up with his mouth is comical. It like watching a baby deer take its first steps in rush hour traffic. Nothing good is happen. lol lol lol
The Spurs are gonna win the West
Perk was just at the place at the right time. I’ll take baby Davis over perk
This is ridiculous lmfao… OKC has literally been the most injured team this year and have still managed to have the best record in the league lol one thing about the thunder organization is they’re gonna prioritize their players’ health over ANYTHING! This team will most likely be healthy and whole come playoff time and they’ll be back to looking unbeatable
Can someone please make a browser extension that immediately skips ahead when Perk begins talking?
What's going in with this girls voice?😂😂
The disrespect to Toronto is crazy. They're 5th in the east.
Spurs got OKC Number
They are struggling because of injuries period. When they get healthy its game on
Thank you, Windy, for being the voice of reason. OKC will not rush these guys back until their healthy. If they do it right, they should have a healthy team by playoffs. And what if SA or Denver gets season ending injuries? You just don't know and there's still plenty of season left! Therefore, OKC should still be the favorite. Sure, they've leveled out lately mostly due to injuries, but let's not forget, they're still the same team that went 24-1 (plus added McCain), they could easily end the season in a similar fashion. The fear mongering by the media (for ratings) is ridiculous.
Perk just a 🐑 bruh last season he was chill talking about the Thunder, once they’re healthy they aren’t a team to be messed with.
I hope everyone is seeing now how hard it is to win 2 3 peat 🏆 23
All OKC starters injured when playing the Spurs🤣🤣🤣
Thunder will flip the switch during the playoffs.
These mfs don’t know about injuries
The switch up form the media is insane
I’m gonna laugh when OKC gets healthy again and starts running out 15 game win streaks 😂
OKC took 7 games to put away the Pacers and are wobbling immediately the following season and I'm supposed to belive this is the next dynasty? Lmao riiiight
we now know how invisible the GSW dynasty is! if it wasn't for "saving Lebrons legacy" and the KD Daymond drama, we looking at at least a 7peat, 73 wins record. GSW at the peak is the ONLY team in history that has a shot to get 80 wins if they REALLY want it!! Curry Top 3 All Time easily, too bad he entered league at 22, didn't get serious minutes till late 20s
OKC will be fine, but Mark will have some decisions to make with who get pt, Shai, Lu, Dub, Chet, Hart… Caso, Ajay, Wiggins, Caruso, J. Will… McCain, Joe, Kendrich, Plumlee
I think all the injuries will be a blessing for the Thunder come playoff time. That is if we're completely healthy. Dub"s back, Topic close to returning. McCain getting back in rhythm. Who knows , Sorber may be ready late April 🎉🎉🎉
