“If you're getting stops and you're making threes and the other team's not scoring, that's when you're going to see a huge point difference there,” coach Billy Donovan said.

Feels odd seeing them not having to dig themselves out of a hole. Great to see.
Starting to see what Presti saw in Jerami as well. Didn't understand it at first, but its making sense now

Re: G18: Detroit Pistons at Oklahoma City Thunder | 8PM CST
That's exactly what we needed. Guys besides Russ stepped up. Russ's jumper was off and he settled a bit much but he was on point with everything else. He continues to prove he can effect the game more from the pg spot than any other player in the league when their shots aren't falling.

That was a great team performance outside of the sloppy end to the first half & all those missed FTs. Russ was completely picking them apart late with Kanter & Adams, Adams had room & was getting looks from it, Dipo was solid all around, & AMo came out of nowhere.

Not sure how we got blown out by this same team a couple of weeks ago without their two best players. They had Drummond tonight, we were playing our fourth game in five nights, and we beat 'em by damn near 20. I didn't watch tonight, but I'm glad to see us finally record another easy victory.
Said in a thread about which point guards would make OKC better if they replaced Westbrook:

Really seems like after some early struggles Oladipo's caught on of late as well. Good to see.

Well, this is what happens if we give effort on the defensive end. Glad to see we finally did. Those runs we gave up were ugly still (24-2 combined over 7 minutes), but we managed them fairly well the rest of the game.
"I don't know of any player that, when the shot goes up, he doesn't want it to go in," Donovan said

This was his best game defensively in a while IMO. And yeah, his impact was pretty amazing considering he couldn't make a single jumpshot all night.

The Pistons are a completely different team at home and away this season. At home they have dominated (7-2) while they have been terrible away (1-8).
Anyway, Morrow looks to have developed his offensive game quite a bit, he's not just a 3 point shooter. If he can give a half-decent effort on the other end, he could be quite useful.

Re: G18: Detroit Pistons at Oklahoma City Thunder | 8PM CST
Oladipo is finding his place, which is very good.
Hope Morrow can play like this more often ( not so sure about that, but he needs playing time to be effective on the offensive end that's for sure)
I think it will be important to see what we can to do on the road against the knicks and the hawks. Winning one of those two games would be good enough to have some hope about our ''developing'' team.
