We did defeat Portland in their house on a Back-to-Back so our Thunder can do it.

Negative reinforcement or plain lack of faith?

[Clangus]

Its not Sunday so the Jazz are going down.

[Fallacy]

Why is this game not on fox sports?

[Fast | Break]

why is there a f***ing football game on my TV right now where the Thunder game should be?

[Taranis]

Guess I'll watch OU b-ball on cox 16 since they are playing crap instead of our game on FSN.

[okcadmin]

I can see it on directv now.

[Taranis]

Cox still has a re-run

Half of that were probably free throws!
Sefolosha 11 points? Unbelievable
I watched only the last minutes, seems like Collison made an appearance? How'd he look?

[Jimmy Early]

I officially want Westbrook to take the shots at crunch time when we have to have a basket. KD is a great player, but not a 1 on 3 player. Our best play coming out of time outs or when it is a one possession game (end of quarters or tie game at the end) is to use KD as a decoy (drawing 2-3 defenders) and let Westbrook take his man to the rim.

Anyway, GREAT win! We're back on track!

:okc:

What an awesome Win in a very tough arena.

1Q was awful; 2Q Thunder outscored Jazz by eight but played like it was 18; 3Q lots of Rebounds and team play; 4Q was close out for us when the Jazz have been the come-from-behind sweethearts this season.

Bench guys: R.Ivey, DJ White, Nick, Harden and Mayno played their butts off. Glad to see Royal and DJ get some good minutes and were vital to the comeback and slowing down that hot shooting Jazz.

Freethrows secure the win and make the difference...we had guys in foul trouble early but they protected & played smart team ball when they were able to get back on the floor.

We won every box score stat. 38-34 rebounds and 5 less turnovers.

Back to Back Win (not on Sunday)

Thunder UP
Rise Together

Jazz board at RealGM blowing up over some of the 4th quarter calls. I do think we got away with a few, but they owed us a win in Utah!

[Thunderstruck83]

Haha yeah suck it Jazz fans, you lost a game in November, we got screwed out of a higher seed with 3 games left in the season, and the NBA came out and admitted their mistake. We've been on the short end of the calls plenty of times, so deal with it! Great win, way to bounce back after a tough loss last night!

[ThunderEagle]

I will even say there were a couple of signs of defensive life last night - even though it was a high scoring game. Hopefully this game and Collison's increasing minutes will lead to a defensive turnaround.

Harden still looks like he's slow on defensive rotations, though.
