    Hopefully Westbrook tries to do to much to "get back" at Beverley and he shoots them out of the game.

    We need Westbrook's help to take the shots from Durant. Go Rockets!

    That's a smart OKC fan. But they forgot to mention that they also got a player who is no longer with them (K.Mart).

    Gonna be tough. They will be hype. They blew us out last time, we need to withstand the initial punch and hang with them.

    Westbrook will be quite pumped up, he will either play very well, or will let his emotions get the best of him and play very bad.

    I sure hope Harden doesn't have to play 46 minutes again!!! Rockets need to find away to keep his minutes under 36 - 37 per game.

    Why does it seem like every time we play OKC it's under some bad circumstances? I swear it's always either a B2B or someone's injured or something. Now we have just gone through the Miami/Indy/Portland-OT stretch and facing them.

    Anyway, I don't care if we lose. In fact, if we do lose I almost want us to get blown out so our guys can get some rest. I REALLY don't want a close loss and then a B2B with Chicago on the road where all our guys are tired.

    Would be helpful if the team doesn't get into overtime. Also, if there is ever a time to give a star extra minutes, the time is in a close game vs. a playoff seed competitor.

    There will be some blowout games where the starters get more rest, but at this point in the season, the stars need to do some heavy lifting as well.

    No Steph? Do the Thunder have anyone to slow down Harden? No Perkins? Do the Thunder have anyone to slow down Howard? Just asking.

    This might be the toughest game of the whole regular season. Good luck Rockets.

    You're right. Not sure how I saw the schedule that way. Well, that's good to know.

    So many sub-plots in this game. I wouldn't be surprised if the Bev-Westbrook tension boils over at some point and they get into it. Steven Adams is another guy to keep an eye on, especially if he gets a chance to greet Bev or Harden at the rim.

    Hoping Westbrook takes all the shots away from KD while he tries to show up Bev
