Ball movement. It’s fun to watch. Wish we did that.

That's what player movement does for you. Billy should take some **** notes

raymond felton being in this game at the moment instead of andre roberson is bizarre. roberson is our best defensive player, and felton is a mediocre three point shooter who has no role with westbrook on the court.

Well, after two games, we look like the third best team in the division.
Not what you expected after trading for Paul George and Carmelo. I kinda wish we hadn't traded for Carmelo and rolled with a Russ/PG13 dynamic duo.

Wasn't even real ball movement, it was pick and roll and two passes. That's one more pass than we ever make.

I’m assuming you didn’t watch many games last year.

Apparently Rubio found a jumper in the offseason because he's made quite a few jumper tonight. That, or he's just turned into the ultimate Thunder killer. He's always been a tough matchup for Russ, but now he has a jumper?

Can we trade Melo for Ingles? I'd take Ingles over Melo for what we need on this team.

I wish that some of you that work for the OKC news sites would start calling out this asshat of a coach that we have.

Our defense has been atrocious tonight. The Jazz have pretty much gotten any shot they've wanted most of the game.

Doug Mcdermott in the first game, Joe Ingles tonight. These are the guys beating Abrines off the dribble with blow bys

Re: 10/21 - 8PM CST | G2: Oklahoma City Thunder at Utah Jazz
Why is Adams defending ingles on the three point line and Abrines is under the basket getting rebounds?

Russ was perfect in game one and terrible tonight.
I trust Russ to figure out how to play with PG and Melo, but tonight was very rough.

Because we need to switch everything that way nobody gets tired working on playing defense
