@flasportsbuzz
That’s 11 TDs and 0 INTa since Tua returned from concussion. Hilarious how Houston had no interest in Tua in Deshaun Watson trade permutations a year ago. A blessing how it turned out for Miami – 1:28 PM

@joe_mussatto
The Thunder lineup of SGA/Giddey/Dort/Jalen Williams/Poku, which OKC started the last two games, has a -38.7 net rating in 32 minutes.
Still a small sample, but it’s been the second-worst lineup in the NBA (minimum 30 minutes played). – 1:00 PM

@joe_mussatto
SGA passed Giannis in the scoring race last night.
1. Doncic: 33.4 ppg
2. Curry: 31.7 ppg
3. Gilgeous-Alexander: 31.1 ppg
4. Antetokounmpo: 31.0 ppg
5. Tatum: 30.5 ppg – 12:52 PM

@joe_mussatto
The Thunder ranked 7th in defense in six October games. OKC has ranked 26th in defense in 14 games since then, ahead of the Magic, Pistons, Jazz and Spurs.
Meanwhile, OKC was 26th in offense in October, and it has the 12th offense in November.
Didn’t see that flip coming. – 12:49 PM

@jkubatko
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has recorded 11 games with 30+ points and a 50+ FG% this season.
Only three players have recorded more such games through their first 19 games of a season:
13 – Jordan, 88-89
12 – Chamberlain, 62-63
12 – Abdul-Jabbar, 71-72

I would’ve gone to Aaron Wiggins earlier, but I understand Mark Daigneault is using this year to experiment and this is a great experiment. How would the guys fight through having already played 3 games, 2 OT, travel and now their fourth game on the second night of a B2B? – 8:59 PM

The Thunder are going to have to once again try to get the car back on the road. The question is: Are they driving a 1997 Toyota Corolla or a monster truck to get out of this ditch? All Rockets right now, but a lot stacked against OKC. – 8:56 PM

Coaches purposely tried to get Jabari Smith going in ATO (after timeout) or SLOB (sideline out of bounds) plays. KPJ comes off an initial down screen, then a Jabari down screen.

I’m close to declaring that KJ Martin is the best screener on the #Rockets. Masterclass performance as a screener vs. the Hawks. So good at positioning his body to always face the rim. Makes it easier on ball-handlers to guide the pass too. pic.twitter.com/lheN6CPFRH – 11:22 AM

Over the past four games, the #Rockets have made more free throws (105) than opponents have attempted (97). Houston is shooting 84.7% from the line over the past four games. – 10:42 AM

I think the Hawks missed Clint Capela last night. The Rockets’ 37 second chance points were the most for any team in a game in the last 7 seasons. – 10:28 AM

@chicagobulls
DeMar dropped a 30-piece, including 9 points in OT, but we couldn’t get the job done in OKC.

When you are 1-5 on the road you take all the help you can get. The problem is Mavs have lost 4 times this season when their opponent was missing at least one star. Five if you consider OKC’s Josh Giddey a star. pic.twitter.com/ZsyeSyIShp – 9:25 AM


@StatsWilliams
The Rockets had 37 2nd chance points last night, the 2nd-most in a game by any team over the last 25 years.
The Hornets had 38 against the Suns in 2009.
They also had a +35 2nd chance points differential in the win, tied for the largest in a game in the last 25 years. – 9:17 AM

DeJounte Murray should’ve been ejected on the spot for that stunt he pulled tonight. Taunting a trash talking is one thing. Putting your hands on people is another. Good on Jabari Smith and Houston for coming back and winning that game. – 2:18 AM
