No Kevin Love tonight but Anthony 'Magic' Randolph will be in the house. Excited to see the kid play, I've always liked his skillset.

Ibaka, Perk, and Nazr have trouble guarding perimeter players, should be "fun" to watch them guard Magic after his 31 point game that he just put up on dallas

I think that game was flukey. He made 6-8 from 10-23 feet. Randolph isn't a great shooter. The key is to keep him away from the rim. I'd employ the Jeff Green defense and play off him. Let him shoot from 18 feet+ to his heart's delight.

Having Perk helps make sure Darko doesn't get rolling against us. With the d we have been playing lately and sleeper loss to toronto I think this is one we can put away in the 3rd.
I also feel the need to throw in a ROCK CHALK JAYHAWK!

Poor, unfocused defensive effort to start this game.

Much better after ~6 minutes in the first quarter. Collison's playing really well. Minny bench is awful...

When did Collison become an offensive beast like this?

He's inspired from the Kansas game

Perkins looks exhausted. He's definitely not in shape

Really fast paced game. Thunder might benefit from slowing it down some. The offense has been cooking, 124 ORTG. The defense has just been average, much of that though caused by the slow start defensively.
Thunder should continue to focus on defense, don't gamble or leave your guy. Let the Wolves make mistakes, and this should be an easy win with the way the offense is scoring.

Perk perfect from the field so far. who said he has no offensive game?

yup, like I said earlier, Magic is the type of PF that Ibaka has trouble with.
Aldrich played one minute and was -7

This was a weird game. I thought the offense looked good in the first half but was horrible in the second half for most of it. Harden wasn't great but he didn't get enough P/T IMO. We got really lucky with those two Durant threes to end the 3rd quarter and the offensive rebounding / second chance points in the fourth. Harden's too good even if he's not having a good shooting night to play only 21 minutes. He should have Jeff Green status.
A win is a win but it seemed like they just kind of scraped by most of this game and won it in spite of some ugly play. The defense for most of the fourth quarter was really the only bright spot for me team wise.
