Sefalosha has been a much bigger loss than Perkins. The losses against the Suns and Lakers had nothing at all to do with size, both played small the vast majority of the game and Perkins rarely plays when that happens. But wing players are just destroying the Thunder, and that is Thabo's role.

We supposedly needed Perkins against teams like Memphis, but did fine without him. Tonight might be a different story. We'll see how Adams does. He is the kind of player that bothers Howard, but he will have to stay out of foul trouble. Perkins is Howard's kryptonite.

Should be an interesting game tonight. The Rockets got the worst of it schedule-wise the first two times against OKC (4th game in 5 nights) then 5th game in 7 nights when they had the epic 2nd half meltdown. Now, they're playing well and OKC is struggling. I'm sure Patrick Beverley and Westbrook will share pleasantries before the game.

Suns are worn out. A bunch of players are playing career high minutes and they play at a fast pace as well. They have a boatload of cap space and #1 picks. Future is bright.

I think Houston makes a GIANT statement and wins @OKC tonight.

Seriously, thanks.

Beverly is a no talent assclown.

Steven Adams rented out some space inside Howard's head and moved in, not that it takes much.

I dont like Beverly, at all. He is just not that good, I think Lin is the much better player. Good win from OKC.

Beverly is not on the court for his offense.

Good call though during the game was the final answer

he NBA has certainly changed. In the old days Beverly would get lured into driving to the basket for a "hard foul/clothlesline" and Harden would get pummeled by some ML Carr type guy off the bench. Perkins is good for this type of activity.

Caron Butler is a self check. They are just daring him to shoot.

Adams did a nice job on Harden.

Butler was fine, or did I miss something? 3 or 7 on 3s, including a big one in the 4th. I'd certainly rather him be the open guy in the corner than Thabo or Lamb (at this point).

Lamb is pretty good.

Yeah Adams kind of gave him a shot.

I wrote the Butler comment in the 1st quarter when he had missed a few wide open shots that Houston didnt even contest. He did shoot better afterwards.

Paul Pierce going old school right now. Always loved Pierce. This big white dude on Brooklyn can ball a little, smooth J w/ big range.

Don't think it's possible to dismiss the Nets anymore. Kidd has managed to turn this team into a turnover-forcing machine. Livingston has been a godsend.

Lebron has looked like junk since his 61 game. MVP firmly in KDs grasp at this point.

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Charles Barkley, and Blake Griffin. Those are the three guys in league history to have 6,000 points, 3,000 rebounds, 1,000 assists, and shoot over 50% in their first four seasons.
