Oklahoma City @ Phoenix Suns 02/04/2011

harden with a nice game. didn't shoot it great, but rebounded and assisted well. I don't even know if thabo is that much of a better rebounder than harden. harden is a pretty big guy, holds his position well. hopefully they don't wait to start him until after the year is over. I'm afraid that's going to be the case...

Oh and how about Ibaka? Efficient offense, with some clutch baskets and the usual stellar defensive play in the 4th.

Yeah he did his work on the boards. That one turnaround shot I was thinking 'Noooo'. Brooks might have yanked him for the next five games if he missed that one.

Ibaka has a ton of problems with the PnR but the Suns didn't really attack him with that. Really weird offensive decisions by the Suns late.

All of our 5 best players had good games. Nice win for us considering that PHX was playing very well and always gives us problems

Durant had 24/11 with 3 blocks on 59 TS%..it's not like he had a horrible game

hell that's what amare averages and he was a leading MVP candidate up until a week ago

But the ending to this game was very ugly which is surprising because Durant has been extremely clutch this past month

Durant played ok, I was just pissed at him for those boneheaded mistakes at the end that could have cost us. I am loving his rebounding lately though. He could be an elite defensive rebounder if he keeps it up.

I don't like Thabo.

Having been watching most of the games lately but kept up with the quarter by quarter update.

Positive
+Green shot going in. Either way he's going to take shots so nice that we play 3 on 5 on offence.
+Harden seems to be improving again, guess he was thumb injury really affected him.
+Ibaka really progressing nicely
+Durant's rebounding.
+ Team seems to be moving the ball, assists number going up.

Negative
-Same 9 man rotation
-After the talk about involving cook no minutes for cook today, wonder if he got some game time tomorrow.
-We seem to play defence for only 1 quarter, too many close game recently. We did come out with the wins more than losses. Would be nice if we can start playing it for 2 quarters at least so we can give some garbage time in the 4th quarters. Would like to see how much Aldrich has improved.

Brooks is scared to make change , There is no way that cook should have got a DNP the way he has been playing. He has been doing more than just shooting also. He is the reason we beat the Wizards because he locked down Nick Young down the stretch and hit a big 3 pointer .
