We beat Warriors too! Can't wait to see Tobias going against Melo. Gonna be fun matchup. Still remember that game from the end of march 2016 when Reggie triggered KD and Russ in one game. Let's hope for a W. Our 10 upcoming games are against playoff teams(only Phx is under .500), so next 2 weeks are goin to be crucial for us.
DEEETROOIT BASKETBAAAALL!!!!!!!!

this is how i expect the starters to match with OKC:

AB on westbrook
reggie on roberson
SJ on george
tobias on melo
dre on adams

going to be interesting to see how they match up on the other end, pretty sure george is going to guard tobias and melo sits with SJ in the corner, not sure how they'll opt to match up with our guards.

I feel we match up well with them defensively, especially considering they have been a bad offensive team surprisingly. However, I have a bad feeling about this game. We are on 4 days rest though so I'm hoping we come out strong.

Looking forward to watching this game. There are no "must win" games in Novermber, but I'm hoping we can get a win here. The Thunder are a match-up nightmare for us. But, they haven't figured it out yet.

I just hope we play competitively all game, and actually knock down their good looks. I'd be happy with just that.

I wouldn’t be surprised to see us come out flat after the Golden State performance. It should be a good game.

Reggie will never be a fan favorite but most hate has been redirected to the Bay Area these days.

Part of the problem is SJ. Now teams have keyed in on the fact that he can't and won't shoot. We are playing 4 on 5 on offense. Luke needs to start and we need to move SJ and Leuer.

We need to get out in transition, their halfcourt defense is too solid
