    Best pick in the draft? Could he be better than Lonzo Ball in 2 years?

    Maybe Dame should involve those role players more, when he plays ... instead of always try to play Hero ball?

    OKC just doesn't look good. I know they will get their right around playoffs time though. CJ really took it to them. I think he wanted to show his buddies Melo and George what their missing.

    Jeez, over the past 3 games, CJ has tallied 20 assists and 2 turnovers in total. That's incredibly competent for a guy that is not known for his passing.

    I hate OKC more than any other team in the West. Probably their owner and fan base. That team should move back to Seattle.

    I really like what I've been seeing from Shabazz while filling in for Dame. He's playing out of his mind at the right time!

    Turner played well IMO. Under control. Had 3 assists and should have had 2 more. (Nurk missed one easy one under the basket) Was physical on D. Announcers talked him up.
