OKC Thunder vs Houston Rockets | Game Highlights | February 27, 2024

Early in a shot clock that’s another thing this Rockets team they’re starting to increase the pace with which they play here as the season progresses get a snaps in a jump shot they were cutting off our angles but I get it I get it giddy nicely done on the floater from

Josh GID it giddy more of a reluctant shooter I would say but showing some aggression here early green had it blocked by holgren he’s averaging 2.6 per game hren showing off the handle picked up by Smith hren Fades connects yeah and don’t for that little pull up

64 lead for the Thunder van B trying to feed it and no call shenon got locked up with hren a steel Foul so the issue for hrin is that’s a quick took him a little while to release it but able to get it to go down Williams Feed it’s all giddy giddy up for Oklahoma City back in double full shenon dumped down and it bounced off of giddy turnover as Brooks gets it Ahead

Green stripped to the ball break the other way for SGA 72 wingspan it is tough to block that man’s shot even though he’s listed at 65 green denied hren there to suffocate him ball out on the perimeter to get a good look hren as good as it

Gets at protect he wants to focus on winning games not trophies they want to bunch and SGA has put up some scen numbers in fact in a vacuum sga’s numbers Stack Up In fact by the rest of the league especially coming from a small Market where they don’t get as

Much attention nationally as some of the elite programs and they’re right on Q able to knock down that triple scoring and assist for players that were not drafted Smith misses on a turnaround nice elevation Thompson had it partially blocked by Williams impressive handles guildas Alexander he’s got the height

Advantage on Van vet uses the body and hits he’s just so Pac kenri Williams Jay gilis Alexander MVP candidate putting on an exhibition here in the first 70 Run for the Rockets 4 seconds to play in the quarter double team guil just Alexander Wiggins makes his move puts it up and in

At the horn the banker goes for Aaron Wiggins it to him in enough time to where he can make a read and how about that floater up over the defender shenon Smith Thompson Whitmore and holiday for Houston hren with a downtown hit that’s going to give you a presence on the defensive

Backboard turnover Whitmore drives in it’s blocked at The Rim Jaylen Williams was there to greet him over to Holiday the drive hangs missed it with the off hand Wallace pushing the pace right down the middle Wallace gives it up hom grin rocks the rim hren gives it up get it back Joe

High Pass handled by Williams fakes out shenon strong to the rim for Jaylen Williams right now it’s green matched up with hren Williams comes to the ball they switch fire and hit Jaylen Williams perfect from the outside tell you that every time I see him he impresses me

Under three minutes to go first half Dort with a purpose side steps kick out jumper Williams got it for three two Miss free throws from shenon who’s now two of six at the line two minutes to go first half Green’s a high flyer but he lost the ball block from

Behind one-on-one with Williams High screen shenon switch with hom grd van bleet feed it nine to shoot shagun knocked away Williams with the steal and the Layin goes there you see Williams there just the presence to get in there with the hand and get out in transition with 17

Seconds on the clock get it into the hands of green looking for a quality shot here 10 seconds left green drives in stripped to the ball green misses save it Corner Smith that’s no good on a three guildes Alexander Gathers shifting gears oh that’s crafty and that’s what he’s been able to

Do with the veteran leadership that they brought in oh my goodness H gr on the reverse rack attack man how about the pass and then The Presence by hram to take that catch and the contact that is impressive Shang goon called for it hrin the body Oklahoma City has turned it

Over four times in the third quarter van bleet kick out green no foul call Green was looking for a call he really took this summer seriously worked on his body worked on a shot six days a week didn’t miss a single day of workouts and he said he’s

Really learned a lot from OKO who continues that was a huge triple changon no look denied hren do not go in there Jabar Smith Jr Dort finally a three timeout Rockets beautiful contest there Chad the drive contact blocked by Williams in the right spot Thompson he couldn’t finish on the cork screw

Rebounded by gilis Alexander it’s a seven-point lead for the Thunder stop and go green loses it Williams gets it ahead gilis Alexander right down the middle left hand no rebound gilis Alexander and he reverses it home he’s got a deep bag and he will be the

Trigger man with 53 seconds to go in the third gilis Alexander fires and hits always at his Pace the presence understanding the clock knowing he’s got enough time to put it on the deck for one dribble and then converts corre gets the match up with shenon the help from

Holiday skip pass Wiggins the bounce home grin push shot in and out slam down on the follow he wasn’t boxed out he turns it over Williams fend off and fade nylon player that that’s one where I’d like to see you not allow hram to be that close to the basket defensively

Jaylen Williams missed automatic as a member of the thunder in his fourth game shenon stripped to the ball K walls taks it out Waris try to the rim and he goes down hard terrific of two-way player as he is I think he needs a lot of consideration for that

Award Williams to the corner giddy fall fake nicely done from Josh [Applause] giddy back in by the Maryland product turns fires rims out swam down hom grd with another Hammer Jam are cooking 15-point lead giddy oh beautiful bounce pass and Williams rocks the [Applause] rim with the throw down and then

Williams puts another one on the Reel right through the legs and Williams controls holr lob it up SL it down Gordon Hayward off the special delivery from hom how about hom five assists thus far none better they know it’s going to take some time he’s dealt with injuries all season but to have

Right from a defensive standpoint they created some problems for some stretches here I like what they’re doing in Houston with this cour sh Guiles Alexander count it Rockets have played the Thunder to a standstill in the first and the third quarter not the case in the second and

Fourth Keon Johnson is in rookie out of Kansas state turns it over it’s the fall to 5 and 23 away from home Hayward Drive drag and the follow goes and a foul Gordon Hayward going to the free throw line and trying to get himself back into basketball shape and find a

Roll with this OKC Squad yeah and I think to the Golden State Warriors at the beginning of that dynasty right lost in the second round and then that next year I think they won 65 and went on to win a championship so you never know this scintillating run continues for the Oklahoma City

Thunder six consecutive wins all by double digits they handle Houston 112 to 95

  1. This team is stupid good. Sam is building something special right now. His focus on all the guys being mature, high basketball IQ, and the ability to pass and create for others, oh and they can all stretch the floor. Presti is basically building a Swiss Army knife team.

  2. I hate seeing Jalen Green like this… I thought he was going to be what Ja became and he's just bad. He needs a trade or something he's too damn good to be playing this bad

  3. Good morning beautiful good game hi the morning good game 💐💯🐎💵🥳🏆🌞😍🤩☕❤️💝💕🏀💗🥰💖✈️

  4. For all of you out there who continue to claim that Giddey somehow is the weak link and needs to be traded he had14/7/4 in only 20 minutes and he continues to be an integral part of the success of this team and will only keep getting better. His play undoubtedly suffered the 1st half of this season from the situation with that girl (that never was a situation to begin with) because he was booed on the road incessantly. He's not going anywhere and neither is this Thunder team. They're a legit title contender.

  5. Giddey is smooth with the ball passing. The Thunder would make a mistake letting him go. He's only 21. His offensive game is not bad. Still running a second unit would be a much better fit just because of SGA. Both need the ball to be effective. Giddey passing it and well SGA doing his thing putting pressure on the defense.

  6. Tbh I’m worried that the success of our team might limit the chances someone like Cason Wallace gets to make a leap. He’s shown flashes this season that make me think he can be a ball dominant star similar to Shais rookie season in LA. Very shifty and creating lots of space of one or two crossovers. But he isn’t gonna get the reps in that role here. Hope he doesn’t try and limit himself to a 3 and D role player

  7. Watch out for OKC. SGA is unstopable.& Holmgren is much stronger & bettet than his senior year in college. Add Giddey, Williams, Williams, Williams, Dort & a new toy-Hayward? Holy s–t.

  8. Wow how many times did Jalen Green get blocked or denied driving to the bucket? Poor guy couldn’t do anything against the Thunder D.

  9. NBA and MSM are pushing Wemby for the ROTY but i think Holmgreen is way better plus he is a big factor for OKC!
