    I want to see a green wood sengun Armoni JC lineup, I want garuba to get big minutes too but I don’t see that happening unless we play wood and garuba together.

    This is a game we could actually win. It's possible. I don't know if it's probable. But OKC is terrible enough that it is at least possible.

    Green breakout game! I'd say win but no way Silas can even win a half as a head coach.... Looking forward to the game!!

    This is a direct rival for the #1 pick. So I believe deep in our hearts we want to lose?
    Hope we are watchable and can compete. We haven't been any of those this year.

    By the end of this game, the Thunder are gonna wish they took Sengun with the 6th pick instead of Josh Giddey.

    The games after OKC are going to get a lot harder. Better secure a win before we go on a losing streak.

    vs. Celtics (at HOU)
    vs Mavs (at DAL)
    vs Jazz (at HOU)
    vs LAL (at LA)
    vs LAL (at LA)
    vs Suns (at PHX)
    vs Nuggets (at DEN)
    vs GSW (at SanFran)

    This game might be significant in the tank wars.

    What’s up with these early season b2b against the Lakers. Isn’t that what ended the harden era?

    My conspiracy theory is that League think we're a good warm up for their preferred teams.

    Unfortunately, we're in rebuild so the only thing the team can do is back it up with by playing well. I don't mind losses so long as team shows improvement. If other teams hit tough shots, that's fine, but I'm hoping our team don't beat ourselves. Take care of the ball and limit mistakes.

    I don’t think the Lakers are going to be good this year. They’re collectively pretty old and Westbrook is a chemistry killer.

    I'm asking because I don't know exactly the culture there. Rockets vs Thunder matches count as derbies? Because as far as I can see on social media, the fans of both sides do not like each other at all. Is there a rivalry like Barcelona vs Real Madrid?
