FIRST!

I still think Russ needs some break. These knees could get old quick, we need them for later years.

Go Popovich style, find some reason that would annoy Silver:

Pinto said Adams is trending towards playing tonight.

Safe to say the winning streak is hitting 8 at least.

Not too happy with the shooting in the last game. Gotta get better quality shots and contain a lead. Lets keep the ball rolling and get this W. Three games and counting

Small sample but data says Thunder are doing poorly against teams that don't foul much or turn the ball over much. Spurs are both.

By position match-up data says Thunder are getting killed at SG, close to even at C but doing well elsewhere.

Shooting data by shot clock says PG has been horrible at the very end of the shot clock.

I wonder how Adams return will effect Dakari in the rotation. He has played well. Hope he gets some minutes.

Kyle Anderson is one odd looking fellow.

What is Russ doing defensively? Spent that entire possession after the turnover under the basket looking for a rebound.

Feels like we're outplaying them but we're only up by two. Some lazy defense has led to wide-open threes for lights out shooters.
Said in a thread about which point guards would make OKC better if they replaced Westbrook:

That was one of the most disgraceful defensive efforts I've ever seen from a team just then.

Great offense though : Adams is a beast, ball in PG13 and Russ hands (Melo not touching the ball so much which is great)

I like the pass by Anthony. George just didn’t hit the shot.

If you watch FS oklahoma it’s like Melo is wearing a microphone, clear as day.
