    I think we took their best punch and now only down single digits. Their bench won't shoot that well 2nd half. Feel good about this one

    A lot of that is our pathetic defense. Its not like they have been bs shots. Frustrating our laziness has given their scrubs confidence.

    They've played with at least twice the effort and only up 7. Just need to at least try and we should be good.

    Probably right.

    We should expect Oladipo scoring more at home though, looks like he's shooting better in OKC than what he does on the road

    Christ... the rebounding...
    He's had 7 blocks in the first two games... Maybe give him another half to turn it on?

    Damn, Michelle Beadle hurts my eyes and grinds on my ears.

    Thoroughly unwatchable.

    It's got to be demoralizing for the Thunder how they play with all of this energy and the Rockets haven't even hit their stride yet and it's a 7 point game at the half.

    Even if the Thunder were up 15 right now I'd still like our chances, but 7? We got this.

    Rockets executing strategy perfectly

    Going to keep it there and thereabout and then once WB goes to the bench at the end of the 3rd Rockets make their run

    Then dumbass westbrick comes in all enraged and proceeds to take 20 shots in the 4th Q and shoot OKC out the game

    I like how Billups is giving props to WB for not jacking shots up.

    You know he's going to burts out for 20 one game and everyone will be like we need him. He plays d and hits that corner three.

    But this is a bench player.

    They just do actually need a SF to start over him. Can't run small ball all the time when you already can't rebound or defend.

    Oladipo is definitely capable of going off. Remember he lit us up in our 1st game against them this season. Looked like a Michael Jordan regen that night.
