    Thunder are undefeated since the all star break

  2. ThunderPoke91

    For the love of God people, think of the driving lanes!!!!

  3. stonerslug47

    40 wins and another loss to sweeten their draft pick we own? It was a good day

  4. tokingcircle

    Chet was incredible.

    Oh, an average Shai game I suppose šŸ’€

  5. Illustrious_South135

    Like how Giddey played today, very engaged on the defensive end and was getting on the boards

  6. DullStrain4625

    Chet, only rookie ever with 100 3s and blocks. He fills a role most teams dream of with rim protection on one end and spacing on the other.

    But thereā€™s flashes of even more. His floor now is what everybody wants, his ceiling is what nobody has.

  7. One of those beautiful victories where you win and your draft pick gets better

  8. Headlesshorsman02

    Great fight from the team, the big 3 were fantastic tonight

  9. HoustonFoReal

    ESPN just said Chet is the first player in NBA history to have 150 blocks, 150 assists, and 100 3ā€™s made in a season. Is that true!???

    Jdub bark in the post interview

  11. wjkoehler

    The Rockets are such an unlikeable group of players

  12. Great to see the team come back down big and really redeem that shitty loss earlier in the year.

    Dortā€™s offensive jump this year canā€™t go understated. If he can hit threes in the playoffs like this, this is a very dangerous team.

    Chet has looked incredible since the break, definitely needed some rest. He may be pushing SGA in MVP voting one of these years.

    Dub wasnā€™t as efficient as usual, but it felt like he just hit big shot after big shot tonight, and that is becoming a promising pattern for him.

    I liked the role Giddey played tonight. Led the team in boards, had some nice passes, a great inbounds pass at the end of the 3rd. His defense has improved this season, though still not great. If he canā€™t be a primary playmaker, he has to step up his defense and rebounding. Only 2 points on 5 shots tonight, but 3 steals, a block, 9 boards, and 5 dimes is solid.

  13. Omegabyss_5531

    ā€œJosh Giddey had two points so Iā€™m gonna hyper focus on that because I live a miserable lifeā€

  14. kfmsooner

    Iā€™m good with the draft decisions we made. Chet of JSJ is a clear winner. I donā€™t think I could watch Sengun every night the way he cries after a slight breeze affects his shot. But, heā€™s a good player. Cam Whitmore looks awesome until you break down his stats and see that he is averaging 0.5 apg/0.9 TO/game. Plus, heā€™s not a defender. Maybe that would be different in OKC. I think Cason will be the better player.

  15. Rockets Twitter is going through the stages of grief right now.

  16. mellamosatan

    Funny that Giddey did pretty well tonight despite shooting 1-5 for 2points. Chet is the man. Average SGA night scoring between 30 and 40 with ease. Love this team.

  17. SamPrestiFanClub

    How the hell does Nick not tell Chet he just made NBA HISTORY for a rookie to get 100 blocks and 100 3ā€™s?

    So great to see HOU hit so many shots in the first 20 minutes of the game but OKC stayed composed and then made them look different in the second half. Well coached and played game.

  20. SamPrestiFanClub

    I donā€™t take SGAā€™s greatness for granted. He makes 30+ look easy and itā€™s not. Even in todays NBA, and he does it without being a diva.

  21. nashchillce

    Can’t find the post game interview from tonight

  22. mustangswon1

    Just got back from the game. Once the Rockets weird 3 point luck ran out in the 1st half, we really just took over.

  23. ofesfipf889534

    First game ive attended in person this season. Thunder are just so legit itā€™s almost hard to believe.
