    Westbrook is going to average 25 points on 40 shots per game with Durant out. Terrible news for OKC, but great news for Westbrook.

    This could be the beginning of the end of kevin s finals days in OKC. Westbrook is going to be use to shooting every shot while durant is out and he won't give up those shots once kevin comes back.

    Wow. I guess we'll finally see how Westbrook does by himself.

    Nick Young, Bradley Beal, and Kevin Durant. Seems an unusual amount of preseason fractures this year. Hopefully nobody else catches the fracture disease.

    Get well KD, it is Westbrook's turn to carry the team for a good while. I am sure he will be up for the task.

    20 games missed will almost certainly take him out of MVP discussions. I doubt Anthony Davis can get the Pels a top 3 seed in the east so looks like another shoe-in MVP for Lebron unless Chris Paul takes a step back and Griffen goes nuts. Of course Dwight or Harden going insane would be nice too.

    Seriously, no lie! Have they not seen the very role player-esque production from max contract Parsons this preseason? Meanwhile old man winter Dirk broke his hip and setting sun Ellis has a sprained knee. And behind all of that, a bench full of has-beens.

    Rockets need a big win streak right out the gate to hush all these clowns.
