From Adam Himmelsbach of the Boston Globe: As Isaiah Thomas sat on his porch at home in Tacoma, Wash., last Monday after watching the Thunder lose Game 7 [...]
Well, this didn’t take long. Minutes removed from the Oklahoma City Thunder’s Game 7 loss in the Western Conference Finals to the Golden State Warriors, as well as Kevin Durant’s steadfast insistence that he has no idea what he will do in free agency this summer, the race for his services unofficially began. Durant won’t [...]
The playoff injury bug struck again Tuesday night. And to a team that can ill-afford an injury to their best player.
