Ferguson needs to step up against Mitchell

I have a terrible feeling about this one. Smells like a blowout...

No way Burton gets a single minute in a game like this. Billy's just too scared to give him a chance.

Same. Russ played well against Rubio this year but the best match up for us against the Jazz is Paul George against Ingles/Crowder (and since he's struggling so much and still a bit hurt, it doesn't look good for tonight's game)

I'd rather see Burton over Felton every damned time. We really need a win today. a top 4 seed is looking less and less likely with our current form.
This team is so bi-polar, i have no idea what to expect, and that part drives me crazy, but in a way makes it exciting to watch the games lol.

Billy or Presti? Presti has been keeping Burton off the active roster which means Billy has no say.

Westbrook technical tonight? I'll be interested in seeing how he reacts to team who clearly gets under OKC's skin.

First OKC foul of the game comes at the 6:54 mark.....unless I missed one.
The biggest reason for this is because the defense has actually been solid for a change. Guys are actually staying in front of their guys instead of lazily reaching and freelancing.

This is by far the best 1st qtr that OKC has played since that early Feb Portland game.

Ferguson is so bad lately. I like him but he's clearly not ready for the playoffs

Only a 22-21 lead but this still feels like it was their best 1st qtr in about a month.
Also, agree on Ferguson. He's been straight trash lately. I thought he'd turned a corner and had developed a fairly consistent 3 point shot. Clearly that's not the case. He needs to start moving w/o the ball more.

PG13 looks better physically (even if not shooting well)

The issue is that he will have to defend against GREAT wings comes playoff time : Harden, Donovan Mitchell or CJ McCollum. I love him for the future but it's crazy to believe that we won't miss Roberson.

Good defense so far... Mitchell is probably going to heat up at some point so we gotta stick with it

Are we allowed to say that Adams is playing well on this forum?

Great half. It's a shame the refs are screwing PG on fouls again.
