Can't see Durant playing tomorrow. I hope Lance is good to go because I'd like to stick him on Westbrook

I cant wait to see us trying to guard Westbrook/Ibaka pick and rolls with Marvin/Al on the court for the entire 4th quarter.

Let's see if Lance shows any pride over the team being undefeated in their past 4 without him. When you get outplayed by Gerald Henderson it has to be humbling.

We need this win to keep climbing back into playoff contention. Hopefully I'm home to watch it.

Big test for us. It will be a much more difficult game than the previous four that's for sure. I really hope we can steal one since Durant is out, although I do expect Westbrook and Ibaka to nuts. I usually assume both OKC games will be losses, getting to play them without KD is a stroke of good fortune for us.

And then afterwards we can watch a highlight video of his 3 pts and 4 rebounds.

Its better than Maxiells typical stat line of 0 points, 1 rebound, 0 assists, 0 blocks, 0 steals, 1 turnover, and 3 personal fouls in 12 minutes.

Last time I was in Oklahoma, I got lost and stopped to ask directions from an extremely helpful farmer's daughter.

JK!

Go Hornets!

Lol I like him, but I think that people need to stop thinking that we have the next Chris Bosh on our roster.

He does deserve PT over someone like Maxiell, though.
