Game 59 Thunder @ Suns 2/26/15

Russell Westbrook is the physical specimen that Jordan was. He was notorious for flying to Vegas between road games and going on gambling binges without sleep yet losing no explosiveness or energy the next day. Dude is either a generational athlete or on PED's.

IT is playing well for Boston. I wonder how long it will take him to stir up the locker room.

Or maybe he has learned his lesson.

It looks to me like Dragic is a little insecure as a person. Bledsoe's arrival really bothered him. But since Eric was injured so much last year and a free agent over the summer he did OK. But once they signed IT and then Eric, it was just too much.

Funny. IT and Eric might have been able to co-exist, but I wouldn't have seen that two weeks ago.

It's just a matter of time imo. IT did well for us early on, i was thinking that the Kings were at fault for letting him go. But after time IT stopped moving the ball and it became apparent what he was all about. He's doing the same thing for Boston, looking to pass and move the ball.

What was interesting was that BOTH the Celtics and Heat both removed IT and Dragic respectively during the last minutes of playing time during defensive stands.

The Heat did it last night against NO, Dragic out during defense. Put him back in only to stand in the corner and watch Wade take the last shot.

I watched that game, and Dragic was in foul trouble, so he was removed for two minutes in the fourth quarter. Had nothing to do with defense. He had five fouls.

Yea not only that, Dragic was playing better defense last night than any of Miami's guards including Wade.
