Weird stat Monk +31
Rondo/Westbrook line up almost lost this for us… Vogel needs to stop with that. We could have used Bradley perimeter D tonight. Walker and Poetl had a career shooting night.
Offense is fine… Defense still need a lot of work to do tho. |

lol Caruso was 9th in defensive Raptor last year, top 2 point of attack defender in the league.
Let's relax |

AC is championship tested, much better but man o man, I don’t remember Reaves getting torched defensively, dude kept up and made the right reads every time |

think it was a knee to knee hit when he was trying to grab a rebound. |
Most likely will sit tomorrow, sore knee on a back2back |

Not saying his defense was bad, but just not on AC’s level yet |

More melo at the 4, great…

We literally had Kieff in house |

They can sleepwalk through that game. OKC is awful. |
Lakers aren't that good that they can sleepwalk through games and beat bad teams tbh. |
Compared to a lot of these teams, I think they are. The Thunder score 93 ppg and shoot 26% from 3 and 66% from the free throw line. They could be an all time worst team. |

Seriously. Thank you Russ for being a legitimate starting level PG that can carry a team.
We wouldn’t win this game last season. Literally our most impressive win over the past 3 seasons without Lebron and AD was @OKC when they had CP3 where Kuz had his career game and Rondo navigated the team with his vet presence.
Good thing we have enough now to win some games when either Lebron or AD are out.

I advise relaxing a little concerning the current state of the team and tonight's game:
No Lebron
No Ariza
No Ellington
No THT
No Nunn
That's at least three projected starters a month ago, and two of the top paid players on the team.
Yes, lots of work to do, as expected.

Which makes you wonder what to do when THT/Ellington/NUNN comes back? |

One thing Vogel did tonight I thought showed great coaching. When Westbrook was going off on an official he sat him. Gave him time to cool off. _________________ Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.
