We could easily be trailing thunder by 2 games and a chance of making 1 tonight. All those buzzer beater and 3 x to Kings hurt our chances. We would need to finish the season 8-1 for a chance but good luck with that.

Another chance for a huge letdown. :(

Over under Westbrook 100 pts/50 assists/25 rebounds? Lets hope Bled shows up today and is motivated to outduel his rival once again

Game is on NBA TV so I can't watch it. Plus I got work in a couple hours. I hope Knight plays well, though ankle injuries tend to hurt shooters. I hope he drives to the paint, OKC is super soft without Ibaka.

It's really simple to guard Kanter... if he gets the ball in the post, just double him..
HE just DOESNT pass the ball like NEVER when he's in position to score.

Good start so far but need to sustain it throughout the game. Already with 18 points in under 5 min of play.

So, he is like Kieff/Marcus when it comes to passing, huh.

Let Westbrick try to beat you with his shot. He's his own enemy.

TJ Warren looking good.

Yeah, Bledsoe is going under EVERY screen for a reason... this is a smart defense on Russell.
