Few teams have been able to slow down the Oklahoma City Thunder this season, but the Brooklyn Nets figure to offer one of the better challenges. The NBA's top-scoring club meets one of the league's best defending groups on Tuesday night as the streaking Thunder visit the Nets, owners of an impressive home winning streak. Oklahoma City is averaging 105. 1 points per game, the most of any team in the league, and has topped 100 points in nine straight games. The Thunder are also 9-0 on the season when five or more players reach double figures, improving on both stats with Saturday's 100-79 win over the New Orleans Hornets. Kevin Durant had 20 points and grabbed eight rebounds despite sitting out the entire fourth quarter, while Russell Westbrook had 18 points, 10 assists, five rebounds and three steals in the Thunder's fifth straight win, which matches a season high.

Key:

  • Aggregate Sentiment is meant to be an indicator of an individual's overall sentiment.
  • The Mean is meant to be an indicator of an individual's average comment sentiment.
  • The Standard Deviation, when there are enough quotes, will indicate an individual's consistency of sentiment (i.e. a Standard Deviation of 0 would mean they were very consistent in their sentiment and 1 would mean they were very inconsistent).

Note that quote stats are likely to be meaningless beyond the aggregate score due to the tiny sample size. However, they are always provided just in case you find something useful there.
