Nice win by the guys. OKC came to play and the guys responded nicely.

I was just thinking about how Moore hasn't had a big game this season. And bam, he delivers.

Can't have a big game if you don't play. :dunno: Nice job by Pau on the pass. Thib's drew up the play to inside to Pau, and OKC played it well, but Pau dished it off to Moore while in the air. Nice job!

So happy for E'twuan. That is just what he does. The kid is the epitome of the team player. I hope this helps thibs feel more comfortable giving him more minutes. I know they will go back down some with healthy guys but the way Brooks tries to be nate Robinson it can't hurt to have a smarter player like Moore get more minutes even if he doesn't look to score as much.

Holy Crap!!!!! That was one great game to watch even if they would have lost. But they WON!!! Holy Crap!

We watched a guy be a star in this game(Moore) who hardly got off of the bench this entire season, We watched a ROOKIE(Mirotic) have his 3rd straight 20+ game and hit crucial shots even when he didn't have a great shooting game until the end. He is becoming a star right in front of our very eyes. Notice him waving his arms trying to get the crowd into it? Amazing stuff.

Give Thibs some credit also. Westbrook was on fire yet at the end of that game, the defense against him was critical and it was there. And that end of game shot after the time-out was awesome. Moore was wide open. Noone expected him to take that shot but Thibs trusted a guy who pretty much all season was the last guy off of the bench and he HIT THE DAMN SHOT! Can't forget Noah, also whose point center stuff was amazing. He's BAAAAAAAACK!

Sure there were some mistakes made but that was a game that they were not supposed to win against a guy(Westbrook) who had it going on(not to mention Obaka).

I know it's a hot topic between the factions but I think tonight was an example of how well management has built a deep team and how good of a coach thibs is for getting the most out of them. Would hate to see it all go in a flash

- Bulls win and cover as a home dog!!!
- Moore with a great game including the winning 3 pt shot at the end. You taking notice Thib's? :shifty:
- Noah a big presence again with 12 boards and 9 assists, including a fantastic defensive play on the inbounds pass at the end.
- Pau back to his double/double ways.
- Dunn with a pretty solid scoring game since a while.
- Niko doing what good players do. Shot badly, but found a way to lead the team in scoring, hitting a couple big 3's towards the end.
- And the Bulls breaking Westbrooks triple/double streak, reminding him that MJ owns that shiznet!
- And Kirk, well, Bulls win, and move into the sole 2nd seed position.

I think the Thunder were gonna get it to Westbrook no matter what for their final shot. He ended up catching the ball like 5 feet from half court. You knew it was over the moment the pass was made.
