Game 49: Oklahoma City Thunder (28-20) @ Sacramento Kings (17-29) - 10:00 PM ET

I just don't understand what's going on with SGA. Looks like a different player altogether from a few weeks ago. If it came out that he'd been playing through some sort of chronic injury or something it might make sense.

He's young and inexperienced.

Sometimes when I’m bored at work it’s fun to dream that Sam fleeces The Vladfather for Fox.

How much do you think he will command as an RFA? He's not someone I'd want to pay max money from what I've watched

I would be surprised if he didn’t get a max contract.

I love how wildly we swing between extremes on SGA lol

SGA second year in the NBA, in a new team and much bigger role. A lot of up and downs were expected. So far he's doing fine.

I want Dort to start over Ferguson (and I'm done with Ferg for a long time) but still a long way to go before Dort being a better defender than Ferg I think.

He is his equal defensively, and he doesn’t weigh 15 pounds

From what I've seen he's a more effective defender at the 3. Probably because he doesn't weigh 15 pounds. Ferg was really good at times last year covering 1's and 2's.

I hope Dort continues to start because he actually looks like he'll be able to consistently contribute on offense more than Terrance "Hot Potato" Ferguson.

I've taken to calling him "Hot Potato" because every time he touches the ball he looks to get the ball out of his hands as quick as possible. Feels like 95% of his touches result in him chucking up a quick shot within a second of the ball touching his hands or he'll immediately pass the ball if he's not wide open for a shot.

Dort on the other hand will actually put the ball on the floor and attack the rim. And now that it looks like he's finding a rhythm from three point range, I honestly don't see how anyone would rather go forward with Ferguson as the team's starting SF.

I have not seen enough of Dort to make a real evaluation but I have said all season this team is 1-2 players away from being borderline dangerous in the first round. If Dort turns out to be a real player this team might shock some people if healthy.

Adams-Gallo-SGA-CP3-Schroeder are all legit. Noel is a plus off the bench.
