    It's the revenge tour. We got it on Boston, now OKC and then the Raptors.

    Harden needs to get a 30+ pts this game.

    He only put up 25pts average during past 3 games.

    Joe Johnson and Anderson out for the Thunder game which means Luc will be playing power forward and most importantly Gerald Green getting minutes again.

    I fear that with the addition of Brewer,
    Westbrick has finally received the help he needed.....
    Will be a nail biter. Rockets by 15

    I hope we crush them because the first game against them was one of the frustrating games of the year. They literally hit every tough mid range jumper they took last time. Even Melo, who's been awful this year, had a good game.

    Ehhh, Anderson and JJO are out. However, I believe Green can do way better than JJO at this point.

    There's a log jam among the average Western Conference teams going on. This boring win should push OKC a little further down on that list of average teams. We're gonna put'em in their place. Go Rockets!

    Rockets by a nose. A great big nose that Pinocchio would be jealous of.

    Since Roberson went down, the Thunder have gone 7-8 and have been spectacularly mediocre during that stretch. Apart from an inexplicable 20-point win at Golden State, the wins have been against teams that are among the worst in the league. Also, one win was in OT (@Mavs) and another was on a Russ buzzer-beater (@Kings), and those could easily have gone the other way.

    Won by > 10:
    @GOLDEN State +20
    Memphis W +18

    Close wins (<10):
    @Phoenix W +8
    @Memphis +7
    Orlando W +7
    @Sacramento W +3
    @Dallas W +1

    Close losses (<10):
    @Denver L -3
    Lakers L -4
    Cleveland L -8
    @Portland L -8

    Lost by > 10:
    New Orleans L -14
    @Lakers L -25
    @GOLDEN State L -32

    During that same span, the Rox are 14-0 with 8 wins against teams currently in playoff positions. We've won most of those games comfortably and only the recent Celtics game went down to the final few seconds.

    Sure, tomorrow's game is on the road, but I'll be surprised if we don't win. This Thunder squad is not very good and they're playing like sh!te since the Roberson injury.

    Hopefully we keep the 1 seed, the Thunder have the 7 seed and play the Warriors, the Warriors might get tired during that series. I am hoping the Clippers get the 8 seed instead of Nuggets because of the Altitude and players don't like going there,LA is better for us.
