    Huh? OKC is playing some good basketball. 5th seed, and seriously tracking Minny for the 4th seed.

    7-3 in their last 10.

    They'll say they lost despite "Westbrook's triple double effort" and conveniently neglect to mention that he scored 16 points on 21 shots and had 9 turnovers.

    Back to being the unmitigated disastrously bad experiment that they were?If it weren’t for a huge choke job by the young Nuggets they would have lost by 30 in Denver and got there asses handed to them by a Cousins less Pelicans outfit at home

    Atleast one guy gets it. Roberson is their best defender. His numbers are DPOY-type. (Bottom 5 def.efficiency w/o him, 1st with him)

    Thunders will beat the Worriers Tuesday. ;)

    People forget that Thunder is just noise. In this case, they are the fake crack and boom that comes after our Rockets break the sound barrier.

    They lack fluidity on offense.

    They could still be good defensively without Roberson, but that would mean their stars would have to try on EVERY play instead of watching Roberson take the best offensive threat away.

    Also, LOL at Melo...every time he REALLY tries on D something crazy happens where the other team still gets a basket.

    I love the triple double argument for Russ.

    “Thunder almost always win when he gets a triple double”.

    Yeah when he manages to succeed with his force fed assists and when his opponents miss shots that he can get rebounds for because he totally left his man to pad his stats....they win.

    Hehe coach Nick giving Russ some props.
    I saw one earlier but he actually posted to clips of Russ.
    First one is Russ hunting for a rebound


    The other one his defense against the Nuggets in the last seconds.



    Good job Coach Nick
    I liked his video on the Harden step back (0 1 2 Rule)

    Unbelievable how much of a pass the national media is giving Westbrook for his awful, negligent defense
