    If you mouse over the "lineup +/-" bars, a window will pop up with info.

    Kobe plays 38.3 minutes a game.... I honestly think since K-Mart is our weapon and the teams offensive threat, we need tok play him the same way the Lakers play Kobe.... just a thought.

    It is true. They have been good at home, competing with the best.
    They are just below average on the road, this sets good teams apart from great teams, contenders.

    Noteworthy also.
    Back then Tmac was our best player on the road. I guess we need those players bad.

    Always feels good to get a win against one of the league's best. Now to take care of business on Friday!

    lucky? If anything the Thunder got lucky. Rockets had one lucky break which was the Patterson tip in. Other than that, we had numerous turnovers like Budinger dropping the ball out of nowhere, lowry kicking the ball while dribbling, being unable to catch rebounds etc.

    Fixed that for you.

    We can beat bad teams even when Martin doesn't show up, because of our depth. But against average teams we need Martin to have a decent game, not disappear completely, and against good teams we need Martin to really light it up.

    Back from the game.

    MAN! What a win! Best game i've ever seen live. Great seat too. RIGHT on the Thunder's tunnel.

    Can't believe Durrant missed THREE shots in the last 24 seconds. Was meant to be I guess.

    SOOO many OKC fans there tonight. Lots of Longhorn/Thunder fans....it was annoying.

    But the crowd in the last defensive possesion was LOUD. My voice is gone..lol.

    Great game....so good in fact, I bought tickets to Friday's game on the way out. :)

    Sure, it was a sloppy game. Maybe the Thunder were lucky but so were the Rockets. Obviously some credit to the Rockets D(who though kept giving them chance after chance because they don't know how to grab a rebound), but the Thunder missed their final 9 shots. (Westbrook & Durant 0-8, Harden 0-1).

    Yes, the Rockets got lucky. ;) But that's ok. Nothing wrong with being lucky and winning.
