Over under on how many times Chris Fisher says a thunder player is “doing work” in the post?

Feels like a trap, hoping they keep up the recent play

Thunder should take care of business with this one. They should keep the defensive intensity up and shoot the ball well.

I would like Paul George, Westbrook and Adams to rest this game. Lets find out what the bench really has!

That would be a Pop like move.
Seeing that we made great strides, lets rest this guys with thought on the postseason. Would be a nice change to our previous methods where we rested players game before playoffs started.

Russ doesn’t really need to rest at this point.

Why would you rest anyone when you are not on a back to back and the last game was a blowout in which the starters didn't play in the last quarter?

Well it would make the other guys have to step up there game and see what they can do without Westbrook,Pg and Adams Westbrook knee could use the extra rest Pg foot probably could use some rest and Adams take a hard fall 100 times a game so his whole body could probably take a little extra rest also.

I agree and i think the bench could still win the game plus gain tons of confidence which will be great if we have anymore injuries or foul trouble.

Hope our squad is not having your mindset for tonight's game or we are going to lose.

I’m not against resting our main guys but as mentioned, tonight isn’t a good night for it.

OKC is going to need there young guys to step up this year or they are going to have to make a trade especially if Roberson is out the rest of the year which i believe he will be.I dont see them going out and and trading anyone that has more than 2 year left on there contract.So young guys need playing time without a superstar on the floor to expand there responsibilities to see what they can do plus it give the super stars more rest.Maybe its not the right time to do it just yet but i hope Donovan does it at least 4 to 5 times this year against weaker teams like the Nets!

Diallo, Ferguson and Abrines are either out, just returned from being out or still injured.
How does it help them right now playing them more (with an even thinner bench)?
What about improving the harmonization of Westbrook and our starters?
What about winning winnable games in a tough western conference playoff-race, where no team is secure to make the playoffs?

Resting, if done well, might be a suitable strategy for conserving energy for the playoffs, but now is not the time for it.





I hope we will tonight, games against well-coached teams are not easy for us, but I think we will win.

The best option is still to be leading by 20-30 after 3rd quarter so those players can play some ball. That's what happened at Detroit.

We need to play well before thinking about resting our big 3 (even more Russ that needs to get in shape)

Have a little success and it goes straight to your head apparently. We're talking about rest in the first week of December? We're talking about rest when Westbrook has played like 15 games?

Adams with the slowest eurostep on planet earth...

Lol @ how Allen getting the ball in the corner for 3 made the defense freeze. He shoots it and it hits off the side of the backboard. >_<
