The Thunder are back in action tonight against the Clippers. There are a few truly meaningful games left to be played this season, and tonight is one of them. The Thunder cling to the narrowest of leads for the #1 seed, while the Clippers are trying to jockey for better playoff seeding by jumping the Lakers.

Skip Tries to Explain Things | NewsOK
If I were a clever and savvy social media analyst, I might compare Skip's tweeting dickishness with someone like Anthony Weiner's literal similarity and keep the ball rolling. But I'm not, so now I just kind of want Skip to stop talking for a while.
Big props to Beckley Mason for a Muppets Show reference here. The Spurs offense is so efficient this season because they know exactly what they want to do in the half-court set.
JaVale Being JaVale | Sports Illustrated
For the Weekly McGee, we actually have a very good profile of the young wunderkind. I think this profile is one of the reasons why we're cautious about being too hard on McGee.
