Go thunder!

Boy I hope Kemba doesn't go off.
If he can be contained in any way, it will be a smooth win.
If not... it will be a long night.

Does Ferg guard kemba?
“If you're getting stops and you're making threes and the other team's not scoring, that's when you're going to see a huge point difference there,” coach Billy Donovan said.

possible. especially if the game is close late. westbrook would run away from defending kemba like he did kyrie.

Kemba and lou will are pretty similar types, and Ferguson has had some success in both clipper games, it just makes sense to me.

Monk has been playing like I thought he could when he was drafted. I’m looking forward to watching him.

Good team defense so far.

Ferguson’s threes aren’t even close. This kid may be a good player in time but he’s not in a shooting slump. He just can’t shoot. Period.

We’re moving the ball but when it’s results in a Jerami Grant three point attempt it’s a little bit of a waist.

How about more piss poor passing? Schroder is getting lit up. This guy sucks.

I like the defense.
I am positively surprised by the shot selection(although there is still lot of room for improvement), Adams should start to dunk the ball if he is not hitting his shots.
We shoot really poorly, i think this will get better in the second half.

I really don't like Schröders defense, despite his athleticism every player just blows by him(to his defense that is most often Parker or Walker, but still, it is bad).

Here it’s comes. We played well defensively and were behind. No we will are bailing on defense. I can dribble better than George.

And in 1-minute, 23-seconds the Hornets turn the 4 point halftime lead into a 12 point 3rd quarter lead.

2-5 it is.

It's like the 3rd quarter of our previous game but tonight we're the Clippers and the Hornets are the Thunder.

Meanwhile, we've missed 3 or 4 wide-open three point attempts.
