So, Rodney Hood had a good first half.

That three was one of his eight in the first half, to go along with 30 points. He didn’t score in the second half, but part of that is because he spent a lot of it on the bench watching the end of a 48-point victory. So, I think he’s okay with how the game went.

Is there a better nickname fit for a player than Russell Westbrook being on the Thunder?

I don’t care if he’s at halfcourt, Toronto can’t forget to box him out. This was part of another triple double for Russ, which is becoming a daily occurrence.

The Pizza Guy wasn’t cool with this delivery, so he sent it back.

It’s been a rough couple of weeks for Paul, as he struggled mightily against Golden State, and now gets blocked by one of the few players shorter than him. He’s still one of the best in the business, but Isaiah Thomas may have him examining his basketball mortality a little bit.

Your daily reminder that Karl-Anthony Towns is still just 20 years old. And he can do this.

Be afraid. Be very, very afraid.
