    I was hear for the Dame series winner. The noise level in reaction to that CJ shot was close to that.

    Please, not 5 bench guys at once too... I think Hood has actually done pretty well his defense has been solid.

    18-8 in favor of the Thunder bench. If we can fix that, I think we win.

    I watched Paul George grab his shoulder three different times. He is in obvious pain but I’m not sure all the time. Seems like he moves wrong and grimaces grabs it then works it lose again. Just a non educated look at it?

    If OKC is having success attacking Kanter early I wouldnt mind subbing Collins in early. Hes been good on both ends.

    hoods been a little disappointing. has had some good looks just not hitting them. I dont expect much from Turner or Leonard so we needs Hood, Curry and Collins to come up big.

    I want a Collins/Aminu/Harkless front court.
    Collins can catch the ball tonight so play him with Kanter in foul trouble.
    Aminu needs more minutes also. He'll help Collins with the rebounding more than anyone else.
    Which is mainly why I want Aminu in there because Portland struggled to secure the board after Collins protected the rim.
    3 on Aminu is an issue tho. in b4 he picks up his 4th on the first possession of the 3rd quarter.

    It's actually the total number of points in an entire team makes in a game vs. The other team that determines the outcome of the game

    It’s weird Turner should have been just dominating Felton? Why he didn’t is crazy? If he would have they could have run it over and over again.

    When you have Zach leading our bench in scoring in a guard type offensive then the guards are not stepping up.
