    Yeah, but I think LeBron is just really feeling it tonight.

    Oh, they're good, don't get me wrong. But I see a lot of isolation, a lot of LeBron and Irving just dribbling around trying to create for themselves rather than for their teammates, and not a whole lot of great defense. I think they're going to have to be more than that if they're going to be a force come playoff time.

    Their defense has improved since Mozgov and Shumpert came along. I don't blame their ISO offense, they have 2 of the best shot creators in the NBA, playoff LeBron with this team is frightening.

    Houston thanks us for beating SAS. I actually wished Houston lost though

    I don't know why but I want to deliver one major fist to the face of Kanter.

    Nope, Freeland is gonna make a surprise appearance... I can see it now... The lights go out and over the PA system we hear "London Calling" then the lights come back on and Freeland is standing over the unconscious body of Kanter.

    One of the worst players in the NBA. If you're playing OKC, you want him to "take over" with the game on the line.

    Mozgov has made all the difference.

    Their unit is now balanced. Similar impact to what Lopez has done here.

    I hate Westbrook, and he's a horrible teammate to have. But he's defintely not one of the worst players in the NBA. Not when you have half of philly's team in play. He is a supremely gifted athlete who works his ass off, he just doesn't have the mental side of the game to go with it. But he's still a top 5-7 PG in the league.

    Kanter, Waiters, and Augustin are a combined 10-12 for 31 points. They're the only reason the Thunder are even in this game against Phoenix.
