I bet Harden is in at point before Wilks.

Also, Susan Bible writes great articles.

Last night as I couldn’t sleep I was watching ESPN and they have a cool advertisement about the ESPN bus coming to OKC and Kevin D. on it. Any body see it? Wondering if Kevin’spot was shot separately on that ad?

My favorite Kevin Calabro moment: on a Ruben Patterson dunk, “SKYYYY PILOT, HOW HIGH CAN YOU FLYYY?”

It’s also nice to see Luke Ridnour fitting in somewhere. He always seemed like a guy with shaky confidence..

@dj
I agree 100% DJ, Kevin Calabro is the finest of the finest. He’s always fair and very knowledgeable. Brian Davis used to do the studio show for FSN NW and some sideline stuff for the Sonics but Calabro was the man doing all the calls. Davis tries hard to sort of imitate Calabro but he’s a poor substitute. Calabro called Durant and Green’s rookie season so he is very familiar with them, and he called most of Collison and Ridnour’s careers as well, so he will be excellent.

Also, like Kev and DJ said, Ridnour is really an important part of what they are doing in Milwaukee. He had 11 assists the other night and Jennings had 8. They have excellent ball movement and Charlie Bell is the other guard, so they are all 6’3″ or less, and fast and can pass and shoot. Mike Wilks at 5’10″ might actually be a very important piece of the puzzle for us tonight. Especially if RW gets two quick fouls…….

I am very very pumped for this.

I’m still in Altus, but will be back in the OKC in time to fill up the ford with you cats! I can’t wait to see if we can stay focused and play our game at home. I think RW has a great game tonight and we need Uncle Jeff to be Uncle Jeff! GO THUNDER AND LETS BRING HOME THE W!!!!

It will be interesting to see if Russ or Thabo can stay in front of Jennings.

Russ can defend when he takes the match up personally and decides to harass his man… we’ll see.

So cool it’s on national tv. For those of you who’ve never heard Kevin Collabro announce a game, you’re in for a real treat. He is among the best announcers in the business.

This will be a test for the young guys. Too many times they get overly amped. Hopefully they stay focused. Anything close to the Jazz game & it’s another w.

Am thinking that Serge is making it impossible for Scott to not play him. Great. That’s they way it should be. And speaking of Scott, this game is a big test of his coaching skills. Want to see what he comes up to keep their little superquick under control. And don’t sleep on Luke Ridnour… he’s quietly having a great season & is as big a reason as any for the Bucks great start. Glad to see it. He was my son’s favorite player.
