Another big first quarter for #Cavs Evan Mobley. The team has been making an effort to get him going early in games. He had nine points in the first quarter on 4 of 5 shooting. Good job punishing the smaller Thunder. – 8:38 PM

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander just put on a show 16 points in the frame, OKC is up 27-25. Ousmane Dieng played really good defense on the last poss. to contest Garland off the switch. Fun.stuff! – 8:37 PM

Two early fouls on #Cavs Dean Wade on a night Kevin Love is unavailable and Wade is in line for a bigger opportunity isn’t ideal. – 8:31 PM

Mark Daigneault got T’d up.
The OKC head coach has expressed disappointment with the fact the Thunder have routinely driven in the paint much more than other teams but routinely have been on the wrong side of a big free throw disparity gap. – 8:29 PM

Aaron Wiggins just ripped away an offensive rebound and it lead to a Shai Gilgeous-Alexander mid-range jumper. That is his winning impact. Creating poss. within the trees in a game that will likely come down to the wire those are huge. – 8:25 PM

I think the next step in Evan Mobley’s game is a constant aggression towards the rim offensively rather than the outside shot. His shot will improve, but being more aggressive more often is going to make him so much better. – 8:22 PM

That possession says so much about OKC — probably like 90% of players are cranking a 3 with five on the shot clock after an offensive rebound, but Giddey was patient, Wiggins made a smart cut and the Thunder got a layup. – 8:16 PM

Jaylin Williams is very vocal on the court, noticing. that at GL games and at warm ups and right there after the three he yells toward the OKC bench bringing the energy for the Thunder who are on a 12-4 run to start. Timeout Cleveland. – 8:15 PM

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander with an and-one finish that carried him into the camera man, and he made sure to pat his back and make sure he was okay. Just a true man of the people. Nicest guy but nasty on the floor with these moves he pulls off to score. – 8:14 PM

Jaylin Williams just challenged Josh Giddey to dunk after Giddey finished warm ups “two hands two foot?!” Grant Gibbs had the same reaction I did in my head “oooo”. Josh did the Dunk and walked off. Jaylin said if Giddey pulls that out, he needs to hang on the rim next time. – 6:32 PM

As the Thunder prepares to host the Cavaliers, some of the areas of focus lie on the defensive end including a heavy emphasis on boxing out and not allowing second chance points.

After tonight the #Cavs will have just one more game outside the Eastern Time Zone the rest of the season (Feb. 10 in New Orleans). Pretty significant for them that the only time they’re west of Cleveland after the All-Star break is for two games in Atlanta. – 2:15 PM
