Great win.....I almost went to Boston this week for spring break but went to DC instead. Now I'm regretting the decision

Baylor is definitely going to be a part of the playoff rotation. We have a pretty good 9-man group of White-Baylor-Brown-Tatum-Queta with PP, Vucevic, Garza and Hauser off the bench.

Him and Vucevic. I still think Vucevic will have an impact in this postseason and provide good depth alongside Queta/Garza, as the Horford-veteran type that can shoot 3s and make good passes

I'm still laughing at all the people (mostly OKC fans) crying on social media about Jaylen foul-baiting SGA on that pump fake. THE EXACT SAME move SGA does and always draws free throws on for years. Even Jaylen was smiling after that.

A big night for Tatum to me would be 18-12-8.  I definitely want to see minimal JT taking the ball early in the shot clocking and fiddling around resulting in a step-back 3.  Move the ball, get boards, score when you have a lane and when open shots present themselves.

I was pretty close. JT with 19-12-7.  He moved the ball more - really solid game. JB was terrific. And got to love what Scheierman is bringing.   

Great win!!!!

That was a big boy win tonight.  Team showed a lot of resilience. Especially after coming out of the gate slow. Defense was looked in and the offense was showing more aggression.

Great pick me up as a fan after the Twolve debacle.

Agree. I see Vuc being a solid contributor in the playoffs, specially on the boards.

A fun one for sure.

Baylor was a catalyst. 
Yup

watched on delay.  tonight's hot takes:
- easily Tatum's best game since returning.  played within the team concept on offense.  played solid D and made a huge impact on the boards.  if this is the version of Tatum we get in the playoffs, I don't see how we don't make the finals.
- JB showed why he deserves MVP votes.  made big buckets when we needed them
- Baylor had his most impactful game of his career.  made key plays to keep the team moving in the right direction
- White and PP made some big plays when we needed them.
- Q and Garza were solid
bad side:
- Hauser played like ass.  really bad start to the game that helped OKC get off to good start.
- WAAAAAAY too many TOs by the C's.  way too careless with the ball.  The J's with 5 each.  White again sloppy with the ball.  having less and less faith in him being able to handle tight ball pressure by a tough defense.

great, great, satisfying win
