    Do we know how we won against OKC last time?

    We can repeat the strategy.


    Our starting backcourt just needs to outscore and outplay Durant and Westbrook again.

    :)


    And Pigs can fly.

    Ok I'll be positive Rockets 117 Thunder 115 Lin hits the winning shot as Westbrook and Durant trip over each other trying to block the shot.

    Durant and Harden on each other should be interesting.

    Not sure how I feel about having our backup PG starting...countering the lengthy Thunder lineup by going smaller?

    Damn, I saw Beverly starting and got happy, but then I see Lin starting at the 2....:(

    Lin should be 6th man. Also, we will now probably see AB play.

    Also, Harden on Ibaka? :confused:

    Would rather put him on Perkins. Damn we are a small team...
