Thunder/Blazers POG

Good game put in by the team against the Blazers. I would guess that a lot of the fans from Seattle were still happy to come out on top of their long-time rivals. Westbrook really didn't have a great game and Watson got some of the minutes that Russ usually gets.

Looks like we have a tiebreaker to break. Those who haven't voted yet have until tomorrow before the Thunder tipoff against the Kings. Otherwise, we will have our first three way tie.

Well, all I can really say is we didn't earn the win. OKC fought harder and Portland lost to a team they really should've beaten. Congrats on the win but jeez, Portland definitely came out looking like garbage on both ends of the court. If Portland can't improve its defense, you guys will ultimately lead us in the division in upcoming seasons...

Yeah, that wasn't close to one of the better games I've seen out of Portland. Guess we were lucky to get you guys on an off night. I don't think that was one of our top performances, but we definitely came together well enough to take advantage of the bad game by the Blazers

Our defense has been even worse than it typically is lately. We've really had a bad stretch and Portland will have to get out of it if they want to have a shot at the playoffs. CYA at the rose garden.
