That is true. Oubre is a 3 to me. Bridges, Cam and Oubre are all threes to me.
Mikal and Oubre have spent the majority of their time at 3, but Cam has spent the vast majority at 4. He has played almost 1000 minutes there this season. (I was surprised when I looked that up)
Cam does seem the tallest of the three and could fill in some as time goes by. I can see Cam as a legit 3.

Philly basically taking this game off. Great opportunity to get a win and keep our playoff hopes alive. Just need Memphis to lose and then things will be looking really promising...

Ok here we go again

Yes Rest is in our favour again but I actually think more of the Sixers reserves than OKC as all of these guys have started in some capacity in their careers and had decent moments. Even someone like Korkmaz who has done his thing in int'l tourneys should be respected but anyways that's the end of any praise I would be giving today

Let's handle business , Come on guys !

Always liked KOQ, might be a nice low end big to look at in the offseason.

Virtually a replay of yesterday's start.

Hard to imagine them not being ready to play in a game this big.

2 areas where I have noticed more focus.

We are moving on the pass instead of the catch more as a team and Booker has gotten very very good at it when he is tuned in.
We are boxing out WAY more consistently on free throws.

Its good to see.

Perimeter defense is an issue again. It's got to start with Rubio and Booker doing a better job of keeping the guards out of the paint.

We're sluggish, Philly's playing faster than us right now. A little out of sync with passes and spacing. Book's been a little too ball dominant, would love more cuts for Bridges or pop outs for Cam.

I think the day off Monty gave the team after the Clippers win somehow un-synced us.

I don't if anyone else is having this issue, but I can hear the ball rebound or swish before the video gets there. really annoying.

Book with a nice pass to Frank under the basket who caught the ball with two hands and put it right into the basket.

Book looks like he's dragging a bit, legs look heavy.
