We've won 6 in a row and Detroit has lost 6 in a row. We lost the last time these teams met but we gave up a big lead and this was a low point of the year for us. Russ took 10 threes that game. Offense was piss poor then. Above average now. Think it's a W.

We need to play focused. At home, they are desperate for a win. Gotta take care of this in a disciplined fashion so that we can get ready for the 76ers the very next day.

Schedule is relatively easy outside of the Warriors in this time frame. Need to make up some ground. Right on the heels of Minnesota and San Antonio.

Gotta come out poised and determined in this one. Not worried about the defensive side, but my concern will be offensively. Westbrook needs to take it a little easier and not lose control of the ball and they NEED to continue their ball movement. The Cleveland game is the barometer they need to follow. When that ball moves, it is beautiful to watch. Like PG13 and Westbrook did previously, if shots don't fall, ATTACK the paint.

OKC will lose the game if they rely on isolation plays. Most of their losses came when the ball was stagnant and player movement was non existent. Lastly, they must not get complacent or comfortable with any leads.

They need to put this team away early and not let them hang around. Dumb turnovers and bad shots early in the clock always leave the door open.

They had the WAS game but kept making mistakes. They got lucky Russ was unstoppable.

Definitely need to be smarter with out shot selections in this game. Any missed shots is virtually a Drummond rebound and a turnover. Adams not going to be able to work the boards in this one.

I’m paying attention to Russ this game. Go get 20 assists Russ!

He had 6 offensive rebounds against them earlier this year.

Russ not even getting a hand up is very cringeworthy.
