Good win for the Thunder and some fun comments from Kings fans. Interesting to see the battle between wanting to get a win and wanting to tank. Loved how they said that Thunder’s bench is trash without Harden and then seeing their team lose to said bench. Enjoy today’s comments… Cmon KD, go for that…
