We've had some crazy good stretches of defense in this game so far.. seems like whenever we go on a little run ATL is right there. Jeff Green is having all sorts of problems with Josh Smith.

I love how KD is getting to the line when his shot is off..

Yeah very entertaining game if nothing else.

I thought we had some breakdowns defensively to end the half and had an opportunity to take a nice lead. I agree, we need our patented hot third in this one.

we've definitely been playing in spurts, especially on defense. Boards have been pretty good.

How the hell are you meant to guard Durant in the bonus? Maybe that should be the game plan, bang into people for the first 5 minutes, get to the bonus, then throw the ball to durant.

What a fantastic Quarter so far. Durant is a monster, and is getting help. Defensively, very very happy.

WOOOT keep it up guys

durant hasn't missed this quarter, krstic is about 4-5 and noone else has been missing. Good start, defense still streaky but real solid. Hopefully we can put a nice buffer in here

those last 4 minutes we struggled to get off a shot, and JJ got hot...you can't really knock the defense on JJ because his shots were contested, but the offense was horrible, no penetration and not much ball movement. Hopefully we can sort this in the break.

Joe Johnson made some crazy shots to cut the lead but we've got it back to 11 now with some great defense to start the fourth. Ibaka does a much better job on Josh Smith than Jeff Green.

Green had a tremendous move going to the basket but couldnt' convert the and 1.

We have the game in our hands.. gotta keep the pressure on defensively.
