Go small ball! Not a necessary win, but it'd be nice.

Bad start, but they've picked it back up.

Durant and Westbrook playing well, early turnovers aside.

I don't like this tiny lineup, but the Sixers don't really have anyone on the floor to exploit it, and when James Harden plays well, he really can be an entire offense by himself.

Good offense, good defense, Sixers are hitting some lucky shots. Need to take care of the ball.

Are the sixers this good from 3 pointers? Or did we get them on a hot night? Or is it our usual stuff making teams look good from 3 point land?

Good comeback though. Kept it close. Smallball against sixers make more sense than against Memphis. Brooks might just try durant at center

Meeks made a tough one, and Williams made a tough one, otherwise they've been open. The usual stuff.

Not so great to close out the 2nd quarter.

Durant has 10 boards at half-time?

Is he playing center again?

our defense has been terrible to start the 3rd. Especially Westbrook.

Durant getting boards on the defensive end more because they don't really have great rebounders.

I think we should stop wishing the return of our defence. It'll only appear in spurts.

The always funny four point play.

Thad Young looked so dejected.

small lineup killing us again, not sure what it is going to take to get through to Brooks, being fired?
