    Yes, the reporter who put it out was trying to match up a trade for Iman Shumpert of the Knicks.... he also said that the Thunder could throw in Reggie Jackson along with Lamb to even it out.......

    That told me it was all total BS.

    That would be monumentally stupid. And Presti isn't stupid.

    It certainly made no sense when I heard it. Monumentally stupid is an understatement for that trade.

    Lol. I wouldn't trade Jackson OR Lamb for Shumpert, much less Jackson AND Lamb. Anyway, moving on...

    Good tough road win tonight against the Hawks. On nights when one of our two franchise players are off; the bench seems to step up. Nick Collison dunk in the final stanza let the air out of the Atlanta offense.

    They ran hot and cold but finally stepped up when it counted.

    OKC and Atlanta got into a battle to see who could miss the most number of shots in a game. Fortunately, the Hawks won that contest.

    Anywho... we take the game and move to .800!

    Going to be a tough game tonight in Memphis because of the possibility of a mental let down. Why?

    The Grizzlies are missing some pivotal pieces in their line-up tonight. Mark Gasol and Quincy Pondexter are out indefinitely; several members Tony Allen, Ed Davis and Zach Randolph have missed games recently with nagging injuries.

    It's funny you think the Thunder will struggle because Memphis doesn't have some of their best players.

    Happens all the time though. It's just very counterintuitive.

    Not so much.

    Next theory?

    Here are some facts:

    Oklahoma City Thunder 17-4 record: [home 10-0/road 7-4].

    OKC has won 12 of its last 13 games; Thunder won four of its last five games on the road with a three-game road winning streak.

    Memphis is probably the most physical team in the NBA; just hope that the injury to Adams is minor.

    We have players building a lot of trust and continuity on the court, this should pay big dividends as the season progresses.

    Good time to be a Thunder fan. I remember in 2008 when they were just awful. I would come home everyday and check nba.com to see how much they lost by. If they won a game, I would be ecstatic.

    My, how times change.

    Our bench is soooo dominating. At one time last night, the bench had scored 39 points. Not sure how much they ended up with.

    Sure not missing Kevin Martin lately.

    I think they finished around 58 pts on 68% shooting or something amazing.

    Jackson/Lamb/Adams off the bench with Collison mixed in is deadly. Finally our bench is back to being one of the best in the league since the days of Maynor/Harden/Collison combos.

    Truly a deadly lethal bench capable of maintaining or extending the lead. These guys are beginning to click on all cylinders. Scott Brooks has done an outstanding job blending these players in a combination that allows for maximum proficiency.

    Has anyone heard anything on Steven Adams' injury?

    He said he just rolled it and would be fine. It looked like a knee issue to me and I'm glad it wasn't.

    I hope the Thunder struggle as much tonight as they did against Memphis. No offense meant Laramie.

    While looking at the box score, I noticed something I don't think I've seen before. In the 2nd, 3rd, & 4th quarters, the Thunder outscored the Lakers by the same score in all three quarters, 28-23.

    I watched the game on ESPN. This thing with calling OKC "Oak City" really is a shibboleth to separate non-residents from the locals, isn't it?

    Jeff Van Gundy and the other commentator were having a love fest for the Thunder last night. Seriously, they were drooling. I think the best line I heard was when JVG referenced John Stockton & Karl Malone saying that Westbrook & Durant were them in this era... I posted the same on Facebook and a friend of mine responded with, "the only difference is Stockton and Malone never earned rings..." (a mighty fine style of thinking).
