Kevin Durant says his hamstring is feeling ‘way better’

“We got a win”, Westbrook said.

The Oklahoma City Thunder are the second-ranked team in offensive rebounds, while the New Orleans Pelicans are the 29th-ranked team in defensive rebounds.

Thunder: National Basketball Association Commissioner Adam Silver attended the game, ahead of Durant’s induction on Thursday into the Oklahoma Hall of Fame.

“I’m not a negative person and I don’t want our guys to be negative”, he said. “Find a way to give them the ball and also help us win games”. The Pelicans are 0-6 away from New Orleans for easily their worst road start, and the losses have come by an average of 13.0 points. I feel like I’ve got a long ways to go, but it’s still a great honor and I’m just honored to be here. “When we get healthy, I think we’ll have a good basketball team”. “I’m not sure how he injured his shoulder, we’ll have to take a look at the tape and see what happened”. I mean to score that much, that efficiently and still have time to dish out over 10 assists a game is something only LeBron and Steph can do, and I’ve already said they are the best two players running the show right now.

In this episode, Marina Mangiaracina and I talk about that, as well as how this team will hold up with Westbrook in charge once again.

New Orleans hung close most of the way and twice had a chance to tie the game early in the fourth quarter, but Toney Douglas and Anderson each missed an open 3-point attempt. Anthony Morrow and D.J. Augustin had good shooting nights, combining for 5-of-8 from behind the arc for a total of 18 points between them.

After Gordon and Smith hit back-to-back layups, and Anderson drained a 3-pointer, and the lead was down to six.

When giving up at least 100 points, the Oklahoma City Thunder have a 4-5 record.

Carmelo Anthony didn’t play in that one due to back spasms and had 31 points to pace the Knicks in the matchup at Madison Square Garden. He followed that with a fastbreak layup.

The Oklahoma City Thunder have been without former MVP Kevin Durant for the past week after he suffered a hamstring injury against the Washington Wizards.

By now, those mind-blowing numbers are nearly just another game for Russell Westbrook. “There’s not a whole lot you can do about that….” “It’s just molded me into who I am and everything I’ve done”.

With the Thunder leading 15-11, the Pelicans went on a 14-6 run to end the quarter, leading the Thunder 27-21. Boston shot 48 percent and outrebounded the Thunder 47-34. After Oklahoma City lost the previous two games, the noise started to grow louder around the franchise that it was going in the wrong direction. Those lineups featured Kanter playing with the starters, or with the starters and Dion Waiters.

“I was pleased with that the second unit did”, Thunder coach Billy Donovan said. “They really did a great job”.

“It’s just one game”. “It’s just discomfort and having trouble raising his arm up”, Pelicans coach Alvin Gentry said. The information below is to help you understand why particular players are being picked, because we don’t want you going into the night completely blind. “But it is what it is.”…
