I have a feeling we're going to get wrecked if Cody doesn't play.

Adams is gonna go nuts probably. Walker can't guard Westbrook, looking like an L. Even if you put MKG on westbrook, hiding walker tonight will probably be difficult.

OKC is one of the easier teams to hide Kemba against. Just put him on Roberson. Also I think he'd fair better on Oladipo than Westbrook.

Re: GT charlotte vs okc 1\4 7pm est
I wonder if Clifford will take a similar approach to this game against OKC as Jason Kidd did and played his two best players 40+ minutes to ensure a victory. Considering that Charlotte is losing ground in the standings with a tough Texas road trip upcoming I'd think he'd have a sense of urgency about tonight's game
Don't be fooled by Westbrook's gaudy stats, OKC isn't much more than a just above average team similarly to Charlotte

Oladipo is just too big for walker and also an excellent shooter this season, could just shoot over the top. Kemba on roberson is ok.. interesting matchup, Kemba just never does good vs big guards, thinking back to holiday specifically. So i'm sure mkg starts out on RWB. The matchup that will murder CHA is hibbert/zeller vs adams and kanter. Both of those guys are gonna wreak havoc on the glass.

Steve Clifford confirmed that MKG will guard Russell Westbrook a bunch tonight.

Pulling off a win tonight would go a long ways toward getting rid of the stench left over from the Bulls 4th Q and prove that we are in fact capable of beating a better team.

Re: GT charlotte vs okc 1\4 7pm est
Cody, is at the very least, our 3rd most valuable player this year, right? He's definitely jumped ahead of Marv and MKG, right?

Re: GT charlotte vs okc 1\4 7pm est
2nd time clifford in pregame has mentioned hibbert 'not being healthy' and his game vs milwaukee early in the season, said he was the best player on the floor. wouldn't be shocked if Clifford envisions him as a starter at some point.
what is hibberts injury? being washed? ( i know its his knee, its been 2 months though) This is going to be a tough game with hibbert attempting to guard westbrook down hill or a rolling adams. it could get ugly.

on/offs would suggest he is #2. the screening he provides, one of the best screening bigs in the nba. plus just how much better he is than roy/hawes/frank

He is the most consistent defender so far with Cody.

It's not just you. All of our PFs have been. Weakest overall position on the depth chart. I wish someone would take away his green light to just hoist up any and every 3.
