All right boys, in a rough stretch right now. One objective:



And win, obviously. But bigger picture keep the ship afloat until we get out of this stretch of a lot of games in a real short amount of time.

Don't know why but D-Rose always plays great against westbrook. I hope it won't be the same with the knicks uniform

[Thabo Sefolosha]

That 3 pointer by Roberson, so smooth

Great energy tonight. Guys are locked in defensively. I have to take back what I said about Andre. He really is essential, even with his shooting problems. Having a guy to take on Melo, Harden, Klay level guys 1v1 is not easy to find.

Nice block by Oladipo and Roberson with the 3 on the other end to make it a 5 point game late in the 4th! Let's goooo!

Oladipo didn't see Roberson early enough as he was cutting baseline for that lob. That would have been pretty.

Our best game this season. Everyone did his job ( unless Sabonis that really struggles to defend against porzingis). Oladipo had an ''ok'' game, defending well and playing smart even when struggling offensively. Adams played better offensively than last few games.

And of course...WB. That offensive rebound in front of D rose and Hernandez was just...

[NaturalThunder]

Great win.

On another note, Rose loves playing against Westbrook and the Thunder. It's one of the few teams/matchups he has a knack for returning to 2011 form against. Granted, tonight was only the third time he's played against Westbrook/OKC since his MVP season, but he averaged 26 PPG on 46% shooting.

Lol at Russ, he could not care less about his fg%. He was just throwing the ball off the backboard and letting Kanter go get it fire the last two minutes.

SMH at Russ being so selfish with the points, rebounds, & assists. That ball hog out there padding all his stats.

Great game by Robes, went out there & shut Melo down while making a couple big 3s. Adams seems to be getting more aggressive playing offense the last few games. Kanter was a force tonight like he hasn't been the last few games. Bench overall has put together some pretty good games recently so I'm pretty excited for Payne to get back since he can shoot & set everybody else up.


Hope everyone knows that Russ part is sarcastic.

I'm glad they've decided to play Morrow. He is not a good defender, but his offensive skill and energy can provide a huge boost and create momentum that can lead to defensive energy.

That was an incredible rebounding game by Westbrook, even by his standards. The scoring and passing weren't half bad either.

Roberson was huge. Both of his 3s came in crucial moments and swung the momentum. He played spectacular D on Melo all night and that spectacular block at the end of the third was important psychologically too.

When Kanter gets it going on the offensive glass, he is so fun to watch.

I really hope we hang onto Robes. He's been absolutely lockdown against some very good scorers.

[OkcMagic]

What if Westbrook knows he has great rebounders on the team so he misses on purpose to pad their stats Lmao
