Yeah I thought he would still be out, but i'll update this tomorrow with more updated news.

Are we gonna get embarrassed by 41 again?

I hope EJ can play.
But no more losing by 41 --- Thunder have improved, but not that much surely.
Let's be crazy and optimistic --- a Clipper win.

They've played well so far this season, but they aren't a big threat yet. Neither are we really. I'm gonna say it's a close game. It might be in the Thunder's favour based on whether EJ plays or not, and Dunleavy's crappy rotation. We need Ricky or Novak to step up if EJ is out, and we gotta box out and rebound the damn ball.

Not a fan of either team, just wanted to comment on how sick and clean the first post is. Nice job man.

If Gordon doesn't play then I doubt we win unless someone really steps up in his absence.

Thank you kindly sir.

From what I've heard, there's zero chance Gordon will play, but I don't think it means another butt whoopin. OKC has been playing well lately though, so it will probably be a tough win or a tough loss either way. I'm hoping we get to see Shaun Livingston get some minutes this time around!

Aww man, you've been holding out us. Great job. I like the pandas too.

It'll be harder to win without Gordon. I was telling my uncle that he isn't ball dominant like other players, but he's crucial because of all that he does. He spreads the floor allowing for Kaman to work in the paint, he's our 2nd leading scorer and our best perimeter defender. Before losing him, we outscored our opponents by 8 points per 100 possessions whereas the team is outscored by nearly 31 points when he is not in the game. That may not be the full story, but it surely is not a coincidence.

The team is going to have to put their last game behind them. Is Craig playing or is he sitting out after the eye laceration?

I think we need more offense this game, and since Jeff Green starts at the 4 it makes sense to start Rhino over Camby.

any news on blake yet

Anyone else rather see Novak or R.Davis in the starting lineup rather than AL?

We won't be missing anything defensively

Smith is probably out with his eye laceration.

And yeah, I'd prefer Novak over Al since all we do is chuck and play no defense.

I agree. Al has been a huge disappointment this year. I'd rather have Collins play over him at this point. Ricky seems to have his shot back but he and Novak play defense just as bad as Al does. So why not have a better scoring threat till Al decides to work on him game?

Me too. With Collins on the floor, we have another ball handler that isn't looking for his own shot first. We need some balance, and at this point with Al stinking it up, I'd rather go with Collins, or hell, even Ricky.

But tonight's going to be hard. I'm liking the Thunder so far, and I think they will surprise some teams this year. I wonder if Livingston's going to get any playing time today?

Thunder played last night and lost to the kings. The kings are 4-4. Wtf?

Anyways we need to play hard and compete. Win or lose we shouldn't get outplayed by a team playing back to back. The hornets made shots after shots but they were wide open.

We need to rebound and not turn the ball over.

Pregame on FSPT just said Ricky Davis is going to get minutes. I predict a loss.

Rush needs those minutes that Ricky was promised and I'm glad to hear that Rhino will be available and ready to hurt someone tonight.
