I jinxed us guys. I kept bragging about Russell Westbrook missing the game with broken face and he decides to return tonight.

This game is gravy, we did what we needed to do in beating Washington and now have a 4 game lead on that #4 seed. So let's just go out there and see what we can do with Godbrook and OKC, watch Niko and Tony continue to grow and get to see Dougie play some more as well. And STAY HEALTHY. Jo looks amazing right now, Pau still looks strong too. If this team can be healthy come playoff time I'll take my chances.

Wish Westbrook was out then this game would be even

I'm not that impressed with Westbrook's 3 triple doubles in a row. At least not with his shot selection. He shot 38%(34/89) in those three games and they lost 2 of them while only winning against a sub par Indy team. No doubt he is having a great season but that's mostly due to his crazy high usage rate.

I'd say let Westbrook get his and concentrate on everyone else. If he shoots like that against us we might have a chance as long as we take care of the ball and don't give up easy baskets.

Naah... Snell on westbrook you can hide Brooks on Roberson, that guy is only there for defensive purposes.

I love Westbrook game but for thursday I really hope his mask budders his shot like crazy, otherwise he'll kill us and after the OKC game the bulls have B2B of San Antonio and Memphis.

That is true

and to be honest I would love to just go 2 out of 4 including the Wiz game with these 4 tough games we have

Anything better would be amazing!

sidenote

Want to see Moore get more minutes but if Thibs is not willing to do that the FO needs to bring in Nate

Let's not get gassed. We all know that no Rose, no Butler, and no Taj = Alka-Seltzer.

Westbrook has been overrated this season. I don't think he has improved. His shooting % is down and his TS% is average. It's coming through insanely high usage, and with that, he is padding those stats.

His usage is 37.9% right now. It's impressive that he is impacting the game in the way he is, but i still don't think he is play efficient or smart basketball.

Watch him kill us, though.

Easy loss.

Easy win. Mcdermott's career high.

Hinrich will stop Westbrook! Just kidding but Kirks ability to take charges might of use this game. Ibaka and the role players are the ones who might give us problems

Other than the high volume shooting I like how Westbrook is playing and his numbers or 'stat padding' is much more legit than lebron's well engineered stat-pad machine. Hes working his tail off this season, is fearless and shakes of no rust from injuries, got to admire that

Don't be too hard on yourself lol. it should have been common knowledge that the facial fracture wasn't going to keep him out too long due to them being able to wear a mask.
