Was this Jeremy Lin’s best game as a Net? Lin played well on the offensive end for the Nets, scoring 24 points on a variety of aggressive drives and off-the-bounce threes. He also notched five assists. While Russell Westbrook notched another triple-double, nobody in the league has been able to completely contain Westbrook.

B+. Against one of his former teams, Randy Foye had a sneaky good game. Foye scored 13 points on 4-of-6 shooting and chipped in four assists. With Sean Kilpatrick missing the second half with a hamstring injury, Foye stepped up, mixing in with the Nets’ cold second unit. After the game, Foye was greeted with lots of hugs and recognition from his former teammates. That’s the importance of a veteran right there.. SG. Brooklyn Nets. RANDY FOYE

C. Isaiah Whitehead struggled off the bench against OKC. He seemed simply frazzled by the Thunder’s defense, getting stripped off the dribble. With Sean Kilpatrick missing the second half, Whitehead was forced to take a scoring role, and found the ball in his hands way more than he was used to. Whitehead shot 2-of-7 from the field, with three key turnovers. He led the Nets in minutes, but did not have an impressive performance.. PG/SG. Brooklyn Nets. ISAIAH WHITEHEAD
