So how about the Thunder...??!!

Two impressive road wins against two of league's best defensive teams without two of our three leading scorers(Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook). THe role players were forced to step up. Westbrook dominated the first 3 quarters against the Celtics but went cold in the 4th but we still came up with the win due to good defense. Against the Bucks..Harden stepped up and knocked down 6 treys on 8 attempts and grabbed 9 boards in his second career start. Royal Ivey and Thabo have been playing great defense and it looks like the Thunder are back to their defensive ways with the return of Nick Collison. Not to mention our 3-point shooting has been pretty good with Maynor...Harden..and even some good 3-point shooting from Westbrook and Ivey.
Hopefully, once Durant and Green return our defensive tenacity doesn't go away and we go back to being oen of the league's top defensive teams.

looking better than they started...still not terribly impressed. boston win was nice, but Westbrook only proved one thing to me: he isn't a good game closer. if rondo hadn't been injured in the fourth, boston would have taken that game back.

however...very impressed with the defense since the poor start. offense still needs work. nick collison deserves to get paid this offseason, even with his average to poor stats.

The Thunder at 8-4 after a bad start look good. Winning 2 games without both Durant, and Green against 2 playoff quality teams

that Thunder win over the Celtics was an impressive win to say the least. That's a sig win especially without your teams best player and one of the NBA's 4 best players
