There's no way they can blow this...right? Magnificent half. Team can shoot all of a sudden.

Understatement of the year. Our team looks great. If Diallo, Ferguson, and Abrines can collectively look this good and keep this up for a couple of months, it’s hard for Presti not to trade Roberson.

It’s amazing what happens when you move the ball.

I just hope we don't go completely stone cold in the 2nd half. I mean, we're practically at 80 points at the half, so even "only" a 35 point second half should be enough points to win the game given that our opponent has 50 at the half, because that'd mean the Wizards would need to score 65 just to force OT.
Of course this year a 65 point half isn't as absurd as it used to be. It's like how when referring to age these days and people say "50 is the new 40." Well, in the NBA this year, 60 points in a half is the new 50 points in a half. So, let's maybe score 40-45 points in the second half just to be safe.

Is this game for real?

We get our hands on a pass every possession.

Yes, Washington is this bad. Their average game is an 11 point loss. OKC is doing what a playoff team is supposed to do and beating a bad team. The 3pt shooting of PG and Ferguson is showing signs of regression to the mean.

John Wall is playing like doo doo. 6 TOs so far. He’s killing Washington’s offense tonight. Russ has been solid on defense as well for the most part.

Can Steve Adams get beat up anymore without a whistle?

We’ve gone stagnant as are settling for bad shots

Classic Thunder style if we end up losing this game.

Hope we don't let them sustain this all the way down to a 15ish point deficit. If so, the 4th quarter may end up being interesting.

That's not a bleeping foul!

As expected, the defensive intensity just hasn’t been there this half.

I mean, can't really blame them. Up 30 it happens.

Yup. Up 30 on a back to back. Fatigue is a thing.

I’m not surprised or even upset. It just isn’t as fun to watch.

I don’t expect Brooks to pull his starters. He’s fighting for his job tonight.

Give them Thunder boys a break. They’ve been working their tails off. And it’s showing.
