@DarnellMayberry 7:41 p.m. After one, the Thunder and Bulls are tied at 24. Much better ball security out of OKC so far. Just two turnovers.

@anthonyVslater 8:06 p.m. OKC's bench has a combined plus-minus of +29. The starters are at -29. Game tied 40-40.

@DarnellMayberry 8:11 p.m. Perk's plus-minus could be hideous tonight.

@anthonyVslater 8:15 p.m. OKC up 48-47 on Chicago at halftime. Serge Ibaka leads all scorers with 15. His season high is 17.

@DarnellMayberry 8:15 p.m. At halftime, the Thunder leads the Bulls 48-47. Serge Ibaka leads all scorers with 15 points.

@anthonyVslater 8:16 p.m. Kendrick Perkins at halftime: 0 points, 0 rebounds, 0 assists and a -11 plus-minus in 12 minutes.

@anthonyVslater 8:17 p.m. Kendrick Perkins at halftime: 0 points, 0 rebounds, 0 assists in 12 minutes. A plus-minus of negative-11.

@anthonyVslater 8:43 p.m. Chicago on a 9-0 run, now have a 59-55 lead over the Thunder. Luol Deng playing well, with a game-high 16 points.

@DarnellMayberry 8:52 p.m. Russell Westbrook hasn't been good tonight. But my question is what is Kevin Durant waiting on? How long is he going to sit back and watch?

@DarnellMayberry 9:00 p.m. After three, the Bulls lead the Thunder 72-66. Chicago is shooting 48.3 percent from the field and have 15 second-chance points.

@anthonyVslater 9:01 p.m. Strange game from Russell Westbrook: 5-19 shooting, but he has nine assists and only one turnover.

@DarnellMayberry 9:08 p.m. Hasheem Thabeet just left the game after landing awkwardly on his left leg. He was clutching his left knee.

@anthonyVslater 9:13 p.m. OKC's bench now has a combined plus-minus of +38. Outplaying the starters tonight (a combined -28 plus-minus). Thunder up 75-73.

@DarnellMayberry 9:15 p.m. Thabeet has returned to the bench. Team is calling it a mild left ankle sprain and says he has been cleared to return.

@anthonyVslater 9:26 p.m. Luol Deng looks like KD tonight and KD looks like....a decoy.

@DarnellMayberry 9:26 p.m. Idea: Put K-Mart on Hinrich, Westbrook on Hamilton and Sefolosha on Deng.

@anthonyVslater 9:28 p.m. Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook have taken one combined free throw tonight. That's less than Marco Belinelli by himself.

@DarnellMayberry 9:39 p.m. Thunder 93, Bulls 89 with 19.5 seconds left. Chicago ball.

@DarnellMayberry 9:44 p.m. Final score: Thunder 97, Bulls 91. Kevin Durant scores a team-high 24 points. Serge Ibaka has 21 points and nine boards. Westbrook: 16 & 12.

@anthonyVslater 9:44 p.m. OKC wins an ugly one in Chicago, 97-91, and move to 3-2. Thunder back home against Detroit tomorrow night.
