In honor of Valentine’s Day this Sunday, here are some poems dedicated to certain members of the Oklahoma City Thunder.
There he goes again, stepping back when slightly crowded
Where did it all go wrong, for a man so highly touted?
“The best backcourt in the NBA”
Now trying to find his way
A team with two stars, but he is not one
Dion Waiters, making basketball fun
Similar but different
Numbers are insignificant
Unstoppable combined
So trim and fine
All of the wins
The mustache twins
It’s not part of the game
A showcase for the fans
A halfcourt shot, a trampoline dunk
Getting people excited in the stands
A guy in a suit
He means you no harm
Watch as the ball soars
Into Russell Westbrook’s arms
So rare is his hair
White guy from NC
Ric Flair
No way he’s gone
The only home he’s ever known
He’s not LeBron
A king who left his throne
He must stay
No one to supplant
Please don’t go away
Kevin Durant
Rejected at the rim
Thumbs down
Corner three in transition
Thumbs up
Massive dunk at one end
Thumbs down
And-one after a spin
Thumbs up
A sharpshooting specialist
What the heck is this?
