  1. If jokic wins mvp again while his team is mediocre at best, and we're at the top of the west at season's end, I'll lose all faith in people lol 😘💙⛈️💪 SGA deserves it over him. Again.

  2. Joe and Wiggins gotta do something or they need to be traded. Need more consistent scoring off the bench

  3. This was a great comeback win for OKC they need to take care of Charlotte on Saturday cause they got a hell of a 7 game strech after that!

  4. I love what I’ve seen from Ajay Mitchell! I hope he continues to get minutes and progress as a playmaker/scorer.

  5. Question for a future mailbag: how can Mark find more minute for Aaron Wiggins? Is Wiggins’ problem that he isn’t the playmaker/defender that Ajay Mitchell is or 3-point shooter that Joe is?

  6. If I’m being honest I’d rather them struggle now and then figure it out in the post season than shoot great but then shoot poorly like they did in the nba cup

  7. You said the same thing in the middle of last year season about Isaiah Joe 3-point shooting, 50 something games later, you are still saying the same thing. It's time for you to face the fact that Isaiah Joe is trash.

  8. Kenny Hustle cont to amaze! WS/48 1-SGA .297 2-Kenny .260. JDub..174. Cason .129. He's got 2nd best FG% & 3P% on team. His FT% a big turnaround. 17-39 in 23'. 7-14 last yr. This yr 8-8.

  9. When I get to the “in my generation” age, I can’t imagine that I’m gonna debate “mannnn you know who use to be able to get open a lot? Who use to generate really good looks. Isaiah Joe mannn. They weren’t going in but mannnn he sure could………. Blah. Wtf are we talking about?!? Idc about sample size, idc about percentages, idc about shot generation. Did the ball go through the net? Good shot, bad shot, contested, wide open, half court heave. I DO NOT CARE. Did the ball go through the hoop? Otherwise what is the point of mentioning a sample size. A shot diet. I want to see the ball go in. 1-7 with the added caveat of “well over the span of his career he usually makes….”. Is he making the shot now? That’s what matters. Sorry for the rant.

  10. Aj Mitch Roty convo 🎉
    Hart gotta finish.
    Joe will be fine.
    Like the aggressiveness from 8. It will come.
    Mvp Sga this game.
    Great game by Thunder.

  11. It must be nice to have a candidate who gets a fair shake. As a Mavs fan, I wouldn’t know anything about that. Our guy averaged 34/9/9 last year and took his team to the Finals. He beat three 50 win teams in the Playoffs to get there. But that wasn’t enough. Why? And don’t you dare bring up defense because Joker couldn’t defend Kurt Rambis. Damn shame the way the league has ignored 77.

  12. Pacers always play the Thunder tough. They are talented and should be higher in the standings than they are. Joe and Wiggins should be moved. Mitchell and Flagler can take their minutes. Flagler should be coming back soon.

  13. I’m fine with people like Joe and Wiggins shooting lots of threes, even if they are missing, we know Joe and Wiggins are good shooters, especially Joe. Everyone has off games and cold streaks but we know Joe can catch fire and we know he will. Now for SGA and JDub when it’s not hitting for them like if they are 1-5 or something I really want to see them take it in more. Especially JDub, I love seeing him going and he’s so good with it. When the shot isn’t there JDub and shai need to take it in
