Official Game Thread: Hawks at Thunder

[marco102]

I see the Hawks continue not to play a lick of defense, now that the offense is clicking better.  OKC will whoop their asses if they don't step up on the defensive end.  OKC shares the ball and play as a team.

43 points given up....geez. at least we scored 39.

Didn't see what happened on that crazy turnover at the end.

Glad to see Trae being ultra aggressive tonight, but is not being rewarded for the hits he's taking going to the basket.  If that's how they're going to call the game, fine.  Then don't give them touch fouls on the other end.

43 points is entirely too many points. Let's tighten up the defense.

[JayBirdHawk]

Can we play some kinda defense in the 2nd quarter?.

[TheNorthCydeRises]

The group in the game is traditionally one of our worst lineups.  Glad they're trying to hold their own so far.

Our calling card rears its ugly head again. We allow a 7-0 run to close another quarter. What is happening time and again that we fail to function in the closing minute/s?

Bench is +6 in the game right now, with 9 points.  Very good job by them so far.

That boy DJ trying to get in that Derozan/ KD/ Booker middy class.  Contests just don’t matter.

Hawks now shooting 64% FG

[TheNorthCydeRises]

OKC's offense makes sure everyone touches the ball.  That can be a good or bad thing sometimes.  It looks good though.

So no one has ever known that Dre suffers from Asthma?

Pretty dramatic turnaround.  OKC having a hard time scoring now.  
Somehow OKC only has one free throw attempt (versus the Hawks 13) in the first half... and they're at home!

[terrell]

19 yo AJ shooting 50% form the field, 40% from 3, dude's a pure scorer...

[benhillboy]

SGA piles up fouls at the end of halves.  Like don’t let him do it.

I need to stop mentioning stats.  OKC responds immediately!!

Damn.

[TheNorthCydeRises]

At least someone other than Trae is drawing fouls tonight.  Keep making them work.

[TheNorthCydeRises]

Collins with a very nice 1st half.
