Rylan Stiles (@Rylan_Stiles on Twitter) dives into The Oklahoma City Thunder lost to the Memphis Grizzlies on Thursday night marking the eighth straight loss for the OKC Thunder. The Thunder take home the worst loss in NBA history, losing by 78 points without Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Josh Giddey, Kenrich Williams, Vit Krejci, Aaron Wiggins, and the Grizzlies were without Ja Morant but should it have gotten to this historic beat down for OKC? Mark Daigneault's rotation opens up for Gabriel Deck, Aleksej Pokusevski, and others in this game and the box score is wacky. Nothing productive came tonight, but Oklahoma City did get closer to their reverse standings goal! Will this losing streak end at nine against the Pistons for the boys in blue? SGA injury update, Cade Cunningham vs Josh Giddey on deck? Giddey wins the Western Conference Rookie of the Month, and more on today's historic events in the National Basketball Association.  Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

Rylan Stiles (@Rylan_Stiles on Twitter) dives into the Oklahoma City Thunder loss to the Washington Wizards, dropping the OKC Thunder on a long losing streak, but the Thunder are still on a very entertaining team. The Bricktown Boys led by Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Josh Giddey have a ton of interesting players, can't we just be thankful for a fun enjoyable OKC Thunder team? Aleksej Pokusevski almost got closing minutes, Darius Bazley continues to struggle, Lu Dort's offensive outburst continues who will be the first on the Thunder tree limb? Oklahoma City plays the Houston Rockets tonight and on Wednesday, how can that change the standings? Kenrich Williams hurt his ankle, Aaron Wiggins did not play, the rotation still does not include Gabriel Deck, Vit Krejci, Theo Maledon, or Isaiah Roby. Mark Daigneault returns to the sideline and his child was almost named what?! Tre Mann creates so much space, he can be a really, really, really good scorer, but did I go too far on my comparison?

The Producer is wrapped in cotton wool and plaster so he should make it through the full episode. We're back to cover all the sport. In the NFL it's a funny season. Are the Chiefs back? It's too early to tell but signs are good. The Rams are in a hole and the Pats could be the best team going round. In Soccer we've got the International weekend and World Cup Qualifiers. By the time you listen to this Australia will have played China in Sharjah. EPL is back this week and we give out tips. Arsenal have gone from the cellar to the hottest team in football in the space of 2 months. Australia beat New Zealand comfortably in the T20 World Cup Final in Dubai. New Zealand have played the final of all three forms of the game in the last couple of years taking out the test championship but losing both forms of limited overs finals. Our friend Erik may have coined the phrase DSC So Big. SVG is close to wrapping up the Supercars title with one more round at Eastern Creek before Bathurst. And in the F1 Lewis Hamilton kept the title alive with a stunning victory in Brazil. Meanwhile in other sport, Pies is loving the NBA season because it actually looks like Basketball again. Josh Giddey and Patty Mills are doing some good things too. Australia and England are heading to Brisbane to prepare for The Ashes. A preview will be out shortly. And we finsih off with The Producer's plans to fix the lopsided NRL draw. 0:00:00 - NFL 0:17:00 - FIFA WCQ 0:32:00 - EPL 0:38:00 - T20 World Cup 0:49:00 - Supercars 0:54:00 - Formula 1 1:00:00 - NBA, Marathon Running, Ashes, Fixing the NRL Part of the Always Up Network Twitter - @batsandballspod Brendan - @The Producer05 Josh - @PiesJosh Colbee - @colbee6ref Hammer - @notbatting11 Mendy - @BigMendy180 Maybo - @maybo83 Erik - @ErikNielsen2759 Always Up Network - @AlwaysUpNetwork #AUN Email - batsandballspodcast@gmail.com facebook.com/batsandballspodcast http://batsandballspodcast.com/

Rylan Stiles (@Rylan_Stiles on Twitter) dives into the Oklahoma City Thunder win over the New Orleans Pelicans, Lu Dort carried the OKC Thunder to a big win offensively, The Thunder are getting a big impact from Darius Bazley in this game. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander continues to make a winning impact, but SGA did not have his best night in this contest against the Pelicans, how did Oklahoma City step up around him? Josh Giddey and Shai combined for ten turnovers tonight but the Thunder still managed to win this game thanks to Mike Muscala, Tre Mann, Kenrich Williams, and Derrick Favors's contributions. Dort's rim finishing improved last year, can that be sustainable? Theo Maledon earned no minutes and was sent to the OKC Blue. Mark Daigneault balanced a full healthy and active roster, only missing the two two-way players.

Rylan Stiles (@Rylan_Stiles on Twitter) dives into the Oklahoma City Thunder rallying to beat the L.A. Lakers from down 19 points. The OKC Thunder have a star in Shai Gilgeous-Alexander as the Thunder watched him flip a switch with the Logo three, Josh Giddey impacts the win for Oklahoma City in a different way showing how special he is. Giddey is going to impact OKC games for a long time, and tonight was a jaw-dropping example for the nineteen-year-old. Darius Bazley LOVES playing the Lakers but can he build on this great game for OKC as the Thunder take on the Spurs Sunday? How does the rotation tonight impact the OKC Blue season starting? Derrick Favors, Kenrich Williams, and Ty Jerome were the unsung heroes for the Thunder tonight in LaLa Land. Why does Mark Daigneault have Rylan singing the hokie poky? Aleksej Pokusevski did not build on his great Clipper stretch. What is the song of the day? SGA is the MVP today, tomorrow, and forever. Did we win money on the Lakers vs Thunder?

Rylan Stiles (@Rylan_Stiles on Twitter) the Oklahoma City Thunder lost to the L.A. Clippers and Paul George. Josh Giddey showed another new flash of greatness for the OKC Thunder, what has Giddey added to his game now? The Thunder let Josh Giddey run more point guard, and it was a great mix this game. Is Giddey's spot-up shooting legit? Would you lock Giddey into a career 33-percent shooter if you could from three? Shai Gilgeous-Alexander showed why Oklahoma City and Sam Presti gave him a max in the third quarter, he made a strange championship comment that should make OKC fans feel great, and eventually, teams will not keep doubling Shai! SGA has officially added something to his bag. Aleksej Pokusevski had one of the best stretches of his career...but then did not play in the second half against the Clippers. Was this the right call by Mark Daigneault? Poku did not have a poku play this game which was a good thing! Derrick Favors had a breakout performance did Mark Daigneault find the formula for the veteran? Who did not play tonight for the Thunder, is that telling for how the Oklahoma City Thunder organization values each player? Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
