The Oklahoma City Thunder have won six in a row, but will face a stern test on Sunday night when they visit the Denver Nuggets at the Pepsi Center. Oklahoma City has the NBA's best winning percentage at.800. The Thunder have the second-most road wins in the NBA and this is the second contest of a six-game road trip. The excursion got off to a great start with a 117-114 overtime victory over the Dallas Mavericks, the Thunder's fourth consecutive road win. Kevin Durant went off for a career-high 52 points in an incredible effort. He only shot 13-for-31 from the field, but went 5-for-9 from long distance. Perhaps the most impressive stat from Durant's amazing night was that he went 21-for-21 from the free-throw line, which was the second-best foul-shooting night in NBA history behind Dominique Wilkins' 23-for-23 night in 1992.

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.
