Should be an easy dub. Westbrook should get in the post easily versus Trae like he does against Sexton and create from there. Adams should feast against Len.

No reason not to win this game. Lets keep it going, this year is anybody's game in the West and I feel is our best shot to win it all. December is rolling around which means Andre is close to returning.

Following a procedure to alleviate irritation from a suture in his left knee on Oct. 4, the Thunder said Roberson would be re-evaluated in two months, which would put his re-evaluation date around the first week of December. A re-evaluation is not the same as a return date, however, and there is no timetable for Roberson's return.

Sure, but Lin never had some great athleticism or explosiveness.

Thats why I fear it will be extremely difficult for Dre to get back to his level of athletics he had before.

He’s questionable with a sprained ankle.

Hawks fan here:
Lin may not play, ankle sprain. He started the season looking really slow. The last few weeks he's been a lot better. The explosiveness is not all back. Some plays you see the old Lin drving and kicking or shooting, other times he can't blow by his guy. I guess 2 years off will do that, but he was getting his rythym back.

Dec 28th and 29th the blue have a home back to back. Rehab assignment?

Three point shooting and defensive effort have been better than expected. Overall numbers and impact are about as expected. Good backup pg, albeit an expensive one.

His overall impact has been better than expected because his defense has improved.

I’m really glad Abrines is getting another start tonight. This game is the perfect opportunity to get our Abrines offense going.

Good timeout by Billy. Our offense stagnated.

Gotta love a possession starting with Paul George passing up a wide-open three on the wing and ending with Paul George double-jab-stepping his man in the corner before attempting a heavily contested three.
Said in a thread about which point guards would make OKC better if they replaced Westbrook:
