I’ll be missing this one due to another commitment.
Shame. Would love to see all the first round rooks starting.

I wish they would have rested the veterans against Washington tomorrow instead.
It seems too challenging to loose to the Thunder.

EPIC tank off. Too bad we’re likely better.

I think that might be the worst starting lineup I've ever seen in an NBA game. On a bad night a G-League team could beat that group.

They have us in a classic tank checkmate.
I don't want our promising Rookie starting group to lose to that tanktastic bunch of G-leaguers/back of bench guys (other than Dort).
What would that say about our guys?
So now I am forced to root for us to win to further validate our young players development. Hell now I'm worried we lose.
Well played OKC, Well played.

Even with no Grant, the line (-3) seems short to me. Wouldn't lay the points tonight.

Josh Jackson with his tunnel vision might get us a tank loss

JJ is his own worst enemy in that if he would just slow the hell down a bit he would be so much more effective. He has the tools to be a good 2 way player buy hes a spaz.

Thunder up by 15 early. Maybe all the debbie downers thinking we're drafting 6th or 7th can finally give it a rest if we get a L tonight.

We might just find a way to lose. Svi could be our unsung hero.

I'll take the W if it comes on the back of a big Bey game. Most exciting rookie we've had since Drummond. He's up to #4 on the rookie ladder and I think he'll finish #3 behind just Edwards and Haliburton.

Also;
Bey is the **** man.

There should be more people commenting on this game. It's been fun, informative, and getting to see the rooks all work together has been great.

Hayes playing solid and under control. Wish he and Bey were more aggressive though. Josh Jackson canon balling into the defense is better suited coming off the bench rather than with the starters in my opinion.
