I believe they are starting Westbrook, Thabo, Durant, Green, Krstic.

My 2 favorite teams going at it.
Great to see Battier against Durant;KD has been a little bit struggling so we have to see what he'll do against Battier.
Jeff Green has been their MVP so far, another interesting matchup if Scola defends him.
Kirstic is not the type of guy Hayes defends the best (shoots a lot from outside).
And Russell Westbrook has been on and off since the start of a season.Anyway, he's a good defender, so be prepared for a tough matchup for AB.

Should be a good game, if the Thunder play the D they played against Detroit, or if Green is as good as he was against the Lakers, can be tough.
I see us winning the game,but you never know with Durant and co.

Ariza is probable due to flu like symptoms right? Hopefully he plays.

I really hope we win.. Media is salivating over these guys.. I think the key is going to be the Ab/Westbrook match-up Ab seems to have trouble with him.. Guy is just as fast as AB and a lot bigger.

Budinger really gives us something off the bench, doesn't he?

Go ahead and put me in the fan club.

Westbrook was so awful when Lowry was on him.. couldn't do anything.. AB comes in and the offense and defense goes to complete ****..

Looks like Rick feels obligates to play him since we extended him and not Lowry. I wish Rick would just play whoever is playing well.

didnt shut him down, 6-11 2rbs/2ast/0tos, but ya it is surprising. bill was like "am i reading this right, lowry has 3 blocks?" he is stealing blocks from pple who need thsoe blocks, like battier/ariza/landry/hayes. i didnt get lowry for blocks
