After that disaster Sunday night against Memphis, let’s hope for a slightly better effort tonight. No Russell Westbrook this evening for Oklahoma City, but everybody else should be good to go. I’d like to see James Harden assert himself a little more in the offense and hopefully Serge Ibaka plays a little more like he did in Orlando.
The team was clearly tired Sunday night after five games in five days and then a trip cross country. If anything, you just want to to see them get their legs back under them and compete. Wins don’t matter one bit in Summer League, but getting better sure does. And going through games half-way doesn’t get you any better.
Also Oklahomans that prefer orange may take more interest in this game than most as it could feature three former Cowboys: Marcus Dove playing for the Thunder and Terrel Harris and David Monds for the Lakers.
Of course the shots that I am thinking of came with Livingston at the point and not Westbrook. Quick drive and kick to the open man in stride. As opposed to drive into a triple team and then try to throw it to anyone you can when the defense has already rotated to them.
