OKC Update from SOSH's lone Thunder fan:

The Thunder are playing well right now. (OKC won't go into full-tank mode until after the All Star Break when players like SGA, Giddy, and Dort will be sidelined for weeks at a time with mysterious ailments.) Aside from Chet, the team is currently healthy and plays tough defense. SGA is having an awesome season, and is averaging over 30 points a gain. Still, I don't expect that OKC will defeat Boston. Its 3-point shooting is erratic and the team can get sloppy when it's trying up the tempo.

I see Brogdon is out again with a hammy. Sure hope that changes soon
Eh, that doesn't bother me too much this early in the season. Make sure that hamstring doesn't get worse. Give PP some run (which is useful too in case he winds up on the trade block).

OKC has played like a 39ish win team. They aren't exactly horrible. (-0.3 SRS, so maybe more like a 40 win team)

Not that we should aspire to be the Knicks, but the Thunder did go 36-43-43 in the first 3 quarters last night.

If you play junk D against this team, they are going to light it up.

Grant seemed kind of indifferent to SGA going around him. Grant's body language isn't always great.

Difference in the game is mostly make miss. I didn't see much to separate them by quality of play. Not exactly what you'd hope for, but they haven't been that bad.

These technicals are so fucking frustrating after what the warriors get away with nightly

Also pretty sure he was clapping his hands because he was mad at himself for missing a layup. Which somehow makes this even more ridiculous than it already was
let’s be honest. It’s not the Warriors, it’s one player. And it’s a guy that seems like kind of a shithead overall which makes it all the more confounding

C's look like the team that's on the second night of a back-to-back, not OKC

Is this already Mazzula should get a tech to show his guys that he’s protecting him territory?
