The Thunder are still in a funk, but hopefully they bounce back tonight. Until then, check these articles out!

It's always good to see young players hold themselves accountable and that's exactly what Reggie Jackson has done. He admits to playing really bad defense lately. Maybe this will help him improve.
"Defensively, I was poor tonight," Jackson said after the game. "I definitely could have made it more difficult. I let him get hot early."

Anthony Slater and Darnell Mayberry from The Oklahoman have their weekly "Thunder Buddies" podcast and it's a good one. This week they discussed if it's time for Scott Brooks to change his starting lineup. Listen to the entire podcast.
