    Why bring in an assistant when your head coach already does that? lol

    Because of course. This probably means he's out for 3 more weeks.

    Harden - dribble, dribble, dribble, finds open dudes for 3. Either Anderson or Gordon is hot, but not both, yada, yada, yada, 7 turnovers to our MVP, tons of missed shots for their MVP, 39 minutes of SOUR FACE Westbrook - OKC 104, Rockets 93, OKC +10rebs.

    I hope we come out focused and aggressive to start the game. That Wizards 1st half stuff was painful.
    Red Rowdies better make the arena noisy for this one. Speaking of, why dont we have a Red Rowdies roll call who's-who type thread......

    I think Bev's wrist is hooked up to a ventilator. Sauces.

    Westbrook, Kanter, and Adams will all feast on us. Gotta limit the other guys like Oladipo who always goes off on us.

    If Bev doesn't play this is an L.

    I thought MDA said he was good to go?

    the shots not falling in again is a reason we can lose this game. Gotta have a better start to the game.

    I wish he was available for tonight. If the Rockets put it away with enough time left in the 4th, he could've gotten a chance to shoot underhanded free throws on national TV.

    The rockets are favored by 9 points.

    The thunder just played last night and this is there 3rd game in 4 nights.

    Plus the thunder are starting To fade and even one of there own podcast guys who previewed tonight's game said that Russ is actually playing bad and imo that's because the wear and tear is catching up to him.

    It's impossible to do what he does all year and win. The effects are already taking place.

    I know the last two game against them have been close but we've also had double digit leads in both.

    I'm going to the game so I hope to see a good one but as a betting man which Iam, I think the rockets cover easy.

    By the way the rockets are like 24-12 against the spread and a lot of there games there are favored by 9+.

    This team is really good.

    people still think coming off a back to back is a disadvantage. but how many times do we see teams pull off wins in the back to back.

    the thunder playing last night means nothing.

    Imo and as a few others have said, it comes down to Bev playing or not to me.

    It'd be a shame if he couldn't. These are the games where he finally gets the respect he deserves.
