Think you looked at the schedule wrong. Heat played last night and are off today.

This is going to be the first game I actually get to sit down and watch. I've been working like crazy and had to ask to leave early to be able to catch this one.

Shai hitting jumpers is encouraging. Dort is a little to quick to shoot the three. And diallo drives me crazy.

Noel has to step up and at least get a hand up when Herro is pulling up from the FT line...

OKC is really missing Schroder and his defense. I'm partially joking...

Chris Paul comes back in and **** shrinks the lead to 6. Hard to overstate his offensive impact and leadership. Oh, and he also just **** cooked Tyler Herro.

Of course Ferguson comes in and fouls Herro on a 3.

Bazley with another step back three and then runs the break and feeds diallo for the dunk.

Did Ferguson really just hit the bottom of the basket on a 3?

I close my eyes when he shoots. I think he does the same.

Gallo has taken nothing but horrible shots this game. He’s falling over or fading away for every one so far.

Butler just purposefully ran over Paul as a get back for Paul throwing the ball hard off of Robinson.
