Duane Rankin gives his takes on the game... A-Z.

I can't fault the ref's for missing it too much but the league should fine him for his role and/or comments. After seeing Brooks get fined all season, the league needs to start being more consistent across the board.

It was Jalen Williams running around the arena, talking whatever, after the Flagrant 2 on Grayson Allen that could have caused more serious trouble.

This is the video that contains it.

Hard to take any positives away from a game like this but I continue to be surprised/delighted by Bouyea. He did not shy from the moment; had some nice defensive plays given his size, made some shots when nobody else could throw it into the ocean. Played the most minutes last night and did not look out of place as a 2-way player.

Bouyea has been quite the find. It's like he is a professional and going to play his game no matter what.

All players involved are very floppy

We definitely could have used the potential offensive powder kegs in Booker and Green last night. Hopefully the next time these teams meet, we will have a healthy team.

That's 50 points sitting on the bench watching the game.

it is what it is and it was the best team possibly ever - still - that 50 point drubbing hurt - i know we are an above average team but what does that make okc?

far as patterns go - same as houston we saw a struggling suns team cut the lead only to be eviscerated for doing so - we're good but we're not there - that extra gear still eludes us

a whooping like that can cause friction in a locker room or it can be a reality check for the entire group - i didn't see any suns playing the blame game - not even subtle style - with their teammates

hoping we can take this out on the lukas but the zen master says we'll see
We don’t have the two guys who are supposed to be our two leading scorers. Those are the defending champs who are 24-1. Any analysis of that game beyond those elements is really unnecessary imo. Put it in the memory bank and get back to what you’ve been doing.
