What to Know
After four games on the road, the Nets are heading back home. The Brooklyn Nets and the Oklahoma City Thunder will face off at 7:30 p.m. ET on January 5th at Barclays Center without much rest after finishing up games yesterday. Given that the pair suffered a loss in their last game, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this match.
It’s hard to win when your three-point shooting is a whole 19.2% worse than the opposition, a fact the Nets found out the hard way on Wednesday. They fell 112-101 to Houston.
Meanwhile, the Thunder unfortunately witnessed the end of their five-game winning streak on Wednesday. They fell just short of Atlanta by a score of 141-138. The close contest was extra heartbreaking for the Thunder, who almost overcame a 21 point deficit.
The Thunder’s defeat shouldn’t obscure the performances of Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, who dropped a double-double on 33 points and 13 rebounds, and Jalen Williams who scored 21 points along with six assists and four steals. Those 13 rebounds set a new season-high mark for him.
Brooklyn has not been sharp recently, as they’ve lost ten of their last 12 contests, which put a noticeable dent in their 15-20 record this season. As for Oklahoma City, their loss dropped their record down to 23-10.
Friday’s match is shaping up to be a scrappy game: The Nets have been smashing the glass this season, having averaged 46.8 rebounds per game (they’re ranked second in rebounds per game overall). It’s a different story for the Thunder, though, as they’ve been averaging only 40.8 rebounds per game. Given the Nets’ sizeable advantage in that area, the Thunder will need to find a way to close that gap.
The Nets are hoping to beat the odds on Friday, as the experts think they’re headed for a loss. Bettors picking them against the spread have some confidence (to put it mildly), as the team is sitting on an eight-game streak of failing to cover when playing as the underdog.

Oklahoma lawmakers consider bill to require annual fee for transmission lines on private property
As consumer electricity needs grow, lawmakers are discussing strategies to ease the burden on landowners who don’t want the towers and wires carrying that energy on their property.
As it’s written now, the bill would require transmission owners to pay landowners $2 per foot of line annually. During the committee meeting, Murdock said he introduced the legislation to “start a conversation.”
“ This is an idea of, maybe moving forward, if the landowners are getting a royalty off of the power being pushed across their property, it may make it a little more palatable for someone to have a transmission line go across their property,” he said.
Landowners can enter into easement agreements with companies to set aside portions of their land for the builds. But in some cases, eminent domain is used to obtain a right-of-way.
“ I’m not saying that this is going to do away with eminent domain,” Murdock said. “What I’m hoping is this just makes it a little more palatable.”
Murdock said he spoke with utility companies about the legislation, though he didn’t name them. The bill’s language could change after creating an alternative rate based on conversations with the companies, he said.
Sen. Dave Rader, R-Tulsa, said the bill could raise utility rates for consumers living in Oklahoma’s most populous counties if companies charge more to make up for the annual fee.
Murdock pushed back, noting the lines are necessary to deliver electricity to other counties.
“You understand that you flip that light on because — and have that ability to have electricity because — the people in my district have a transmission line that goes across them, getting you that power,” he said.
