I have to be in Dallas Tuesday and Wednesday for work so can’t attend the game. Guess I will need to find a Mavs sports bar and wear some Thunder gear!![]()

Look I want to keep this team for 9 years but no way it's going to happen money wise. Amazing how everyone is now in love with Giddy all of a sudden. Yes he is playing well and i think he is a great player but he needs to have the ball in his hands and with Jdub and SGA it don't always work. There been some games he hasn't been playable at the end of games. I would still take Nurkic or Durant not both over him for the next few years. Oh and I'm not giving up the farm for either player. Giddy maybe Kendrick Williams and a couple first round picks. I'm sure the Suns want a lot more for KD Nurkic we might be able to get with just Picks and that I would do. We need another big
Tell me you don’t understand how trades work without telling me.
Giddey has started to adjust to his role and has shown that he can play off the ball as well over the last few months…which is why people generally want to find a way to keep him now. Do you watch the same games that we do?
The OKC-DAL series will be great. Kinda jealous though that Dallas gets scheduled two Saturday home games. And we get none, not even a Friday or Sunday home game either...SMH.
^Yes, thumbs down on TWO Saturday games in Dallas.

Takeaways
This list shows that the only teams that truly have any meaningful potential advantages due to elevation are the Nuggets and Jazz. They live, practice, and play in these locations, and the players should be somewhat used to the high altitudes.
Whenever you take the Turner Turnpike to Tulsa, it seems as though you are traveling up to a higher elevation and upon return, it feels like you going down to OKC. Actually the differences in elevation between our two largest cities Oklahoma City 1199 feet - Tulsa 637 feet is 562 feet.
It feels to me that Tulsa has a higher elevation; however based those figures, there's a big difference--like OKC is
the height of the BancFirst Tower (second tallest building in OKC).
I agree. It does feel like you go uphill to Tulsa. It feels like I go even further uphill on to St Louis but they're 499'.
The Timberwolves are looking very good. That team has it all.
If we go to the conference finals, I do believe I feel better about a matchup with Timberwolves over Nuggets. To that end I would also be happy if that is where the run ends regardless of the matchup, such an awesome season thus far

HELL YEAH! Emphatic F U to anyone who thought the mavs would easily win this series.
That 2nd half was a throttling!
J Dub absolutely went off in that 4th quarter.
