@Lefty We wobn our games last year with our stars out so I think it is the stars aligning theory.

Magic had Carter, Anderson and Lewis hurt. Clippers have Griffin on the bench. Kevin Martin and Garcia are injured for Sacramento. Tony Parker twisted an ankle tonight and could be out for up to a week.

Either the stars are aligning for the Thunder, or we’re going to get a lot of grief for playing teams when they’re not completely healthy. Either way, as long as we can win, I don’t care.

Great game tonight!

@Keith i believe he was reffering to a certain part of the game when durant was in a groove and there werent very any offensive options on the floor. so a 2 or three times durant just drove and shot or drove and dished it out.

@Keith I think the "Durant and everybody else show" was just a short period. They seemed to move the ball fairly well most of the game.

Also, I know someone is going to talk about how depleted Orlando was, but I don’t think that should be much of an excuse for what is considered to be, far and away, the deepest team in the league.

@The DON
What a great and different year (though Houston still stings me particularly), we can actually feel favored in games and expect a win. Even against the scrub teams last year you didn’t know what Thunder team was going to show up. This year, we are good enough to beat teams even on a sub-par day, and likewise good enough to beat great teams on a great day.

Crazy game, and really sad I couldn’t see anything but the end of the 4th quarter (just got back into town). Someone earlier was talking about the Durant and everybody else show? Was it really that bad? Our offensive efficiency killed us last year because we played that way. Even in a win I don’t want to learn that guys aren’t playing as a team.

Ok the next 3 games we should AT LEAST go 2-1. If we come together and play well we could steal that game vs. Spurs. But anything short of beating kings & clips will be a disappointment.

Come on Thunder! 5-4 by next sunday!
