One thing is for sure, OKC is going to need a lot of help on defense to make it through the playoffs.

They'll win tons of reg season games though.

Yes he did, team MVP thus far is Russ, playing much more in control this season than any. He is no Durant but the guy is intense and so talented. ky is the limit if this team gets a Big Man...wish they would go after Camby.

Camby is ours and you can't have him!

No seriously, we started the season with 4 centers now we have 1.5. Camby ain't going anywhere.

We desperately need a big and an absolute knockdown 3 point shooter those are the only pieces we are missing from the team, and consistent defense, but I believe that comes from youth and there lapses sometimes

What do you guys think of Green for Javale Mcgee? send Green to his hometown team so no love lost and pick up a big that fits our style perfectly. Then just throwing this out here maybe picking up Fredette or David Lighty (tOSU) in the draft? I know Fredette has his questions but he can straight shoot the ball and thats the last 2 pieces of the puzzle that I see we are missing.

Or Lacedarius Dunn out of Baylor or even I hate to say it Singler from Duke. I know it's early to talk draft but I believe we need to make a trade for a big or 3 point shooter before the deadline then pick the other up in the draft.

If Cook can continue to show live like in the last 2 games (including the 1st half of this Heat game) then we may have finally found that knockdown shooter. Of course, this is still very very premature. But these two games are exactly why we brought him in for. If he can fill that role then our main need shifts to big man only...which I doubt we go for this year or over the summer (unless it's a one-sided trade for Oden) and hope that Mullens or Aldrich actually develop. I think both could show spot minutes next year.

Sam Presti is a genius, so I doubt we go for McGee; and I honestly think Green gets re-signed on an okay contract but becomes a bench player w/ either Serge starting or I think we trade Krstic eventually for a PF or extra shooter, or potentially more picks for future assets and we just hope that Mullens/Aldrich improve (I think they will.).

p.s. HUGE Thunder fan here. I was a Sonics fan, but it's tough to be a Sonics fan in East TN. I also wasn't as upset as most Sonics fans when the team moved. That made it plausible for me to see my team (with a different name). OKC is MUCH closer than Seattle. Go THUNDER!

The Offense today was at time OFFENSIVE...the reason Westbrook had a horrible day shooting is they run a play and try to run something off of that...ball gets kicked back to the point with the shot clock winding down and he has to heave one...dang so not his game. I want the team to get a solid big man or a consistent 3 point shooter...maybe one day

Yea, I think Green will be resigned too...don't think we will get much out of this draft...its overall "weak"...

Kevin Durant played a near flawless offensive game tonight I believe hebwas 14/18 from the field and 4/5 from 3 point land there was one point in the 3rd quarter where anything he threw up was money! The "Thuner" actually played a little D tonight and were able to pick up a big win to put them back into 3rd place in the west, and also win the season series against the hornets 3-1 which could b's big come playoff time if the 2 teams were to have identical records.

Hope the Thunder can hold onto the 4th seed but I do NOT like the Nuggets being 5th, they look scary right now...THUNDER UP!
