Also 6 assists away from clinching a triple double average for the season.

As much as I dislike Westbrook, he always torches us for like 45+ points. I think he's going to really annihilate us tonight, especially with the dimunitive Ulis guarding him. Russ wants that record and will be full of piss 'n' vinegar this evening. It should be a bloodbath and hopefully no chance at all of a dreaded W for our younguns.

I read Westbrook is averaging 41/13/13 against us this year. No one has ever averaged 40/10/10 against another team with at least 3 games played.

That move from TJ was sick.

Loving the early plays for TJ. We use to do that at the beginning of the season then just kinda gave up on it.

Great, now I can't even watch Booker shoot free throws without thinking about that article that said he has a giant wang.

Five turnovers so far. Wouldn't be surprised if he ends up with the quad double.

Did Bender make a pass at Watson's wife or something?

When Dragan Bender is on defense, he hunches down and gets into this squished position where he doesn't look nearly as tall as he really is. I think he'd do better to embrace his height and stay a bit more upright.

Perfect lineup for Bender to create some offense. Hopefully they get him the ball.

Nice move by Bender.

Bender is just shy out there. When he does make a move most of the time something good happens.
