Did you see the intimidation attempt by Wesley Matthews and Deandre Jordan prior to two late game FTs? Vince Carter stepped in between Trae and Matthews. Funny, Carter could be his dad and, sort of, acted like it there. Then Trae drained both FTs.

He is fun to watch. Sooner hoops needs to use the OU DNA social media the football uses. Be a good recruiting tool right now.

I wish a social media savvy guy would whip up some videos of our 3 stars. Really fun time for ou hoops in the nba! Hopefully we can get Harmon in the league too and hopefully a rando like Victor or someone

Yes, this is the best it has been since the mid-90s when there were 6 OU guys - Tisdale, Blaylock, Grant, King, Price and Bowie. Actually, we had 7 guys one year ('94-'95) when Jeff Webster was on the Washington Wizards roster. Ricky Grace also had a couple of those "10-day contracts", but I couldn't remember when that was.

These 3 might average more ppg than those 6, if things keep up!

You may be right. Based on career averages, this is an educated guess on what their PPG average would have been in a typical year.

Tisdale - 15
Blaylock - 14
Grant - 10
Price - 7
King - 6
Bowie - 6

It may be pretty close by season’s end! I can definitely see our 3 averaging 20 a game combined.

26 points 10 rebounds, 3 assists for Blake.

This is easily the best we've seen from OU players in the pros since 1992 or 93. 1991-92 Anthony Bowie averaged 15 points. Harvey Grant averaged 18.2 points 7 rebounds. Blaylock 13.8 points 6.8 assists. Really that was about what he did every year more or less. Tisdale was at 16.6 6.5 rebounds. But sadly it didn't really equate to Billy Tubbs recruiting around this time. Ryan Minor was really the only top player we had after Webster for Tubbs.

Buddy with 20 points. Kings lead Wizards late in the 4th

NickZepp · 10-26-2018, 10:32 PM

Buddy just iced the game with 2 FTs to win it for Sacramento. 22 points. 5 rebounds, 2 assists, and 1 block.

NickZepp · 10-26-2018, 10:35 PM

I may have called it too soon. Wizards only down 2.

oudna · 10-26-2018, 10:44 PM

Second game in a row he’s led the team in minutes. Both wins. That seems promising

Blake leading league in scoring 33.8
Trae leading rookies in scoring 21.5

AdaSooner · 10-27-2018, 11:53 AM

Blake also leads the league in three point shooting at 65%. Go figure!

So you expected him to get 50 a game or what? I'm confused

Nothing to be confused about. I'm sure he was just referring to Blake coming down to earth. For his career he averages 22-23 PPG, so it was unlikely that he would stay in the 30s for very long. Let's just root for Blake to stay on the court and everything else (like a 6th All-Star appearance) will take care of itself.

I was suggesting that I jinxed him

Relax, Nazis!

Buddy had 23 points, 8 rebounds, 5 assists and 2 steals in the Kings' win tonight.

Trae had just 11 points but added 8 assists in the Hawks' loss.

I saw a bit of Buddy’s game. Really shooting well. Led team in minutes again.

Along those lines, last Friday, idiot Markieff Morris got in Buddy's face and shoved him for no reason. Morris got a T, and while Buddy was smart enough to avoid retaliating, he didn't back down a bit. Got in his face and let him know that wasn't going to intimidate him. Then calmly walked to the other end and hit the technical free throw.
