    We're 14-3 at home this season, so that's just terrible luck on your part. Take one for the team...stay home.

    This game is ours if our shots fall.

    It's going to be a rough night, possibly blow out, if not. Look for Russ to get his redemption from last night.

    Their bigs worry me. Adams is balling, and with Clint out, I hope we can contain them.

    If shots fall early, Rockets win 131-117

    If not, Thunder win 93-86.

    I don't think the league itself cares so long as they have players to market (and they do). I'm referring more to the analysts and talk shows on ESPN and the like that have been praising WB like crazy lately.

    We are better than them, the entire team and roster, but they play harder than us at times....should be a good one.

    He has a wrist sprain, and is a game time decision against OKC. It's better to sit him out, in my opinion, even if says he is ready to go.

    This is such a big game. A win here would be awesome. Can't wait to watch it. Adams could eat us alive though without Capela and Westbrook is going to be on lolerskates being guarded by Brewer.

    No Bev or Capela.

    So we got:
    • Brewer and Ennis on Westbrook
    • Oladipo on Harden
    • Adams and Kanter on Harrell and NeNe
    • Barkley and Shaq on the Rockets not being a good team and Harden not being the MVP.

    Big game for Harden and his MVP chances. The Beard needs to come out and show his greatness.

    Rockets are two days rest.
    OKC is on the second game of a back to back.

    No reason we should lose this game.

    Harden on two days rest this season: 30.8ppg 10ast 9.3reb on 49%FG. Only 30% 3FG.

    Westbrook on 0 days rest this season: 26.7ppg 9.8ast 10.7reb on 38%FG and 28% 3FG.

    As stupid as it is, you are right. Probably won't matter if Harden outplays Westbrook unless it's a true signature game for him, but if Westbrook outplays Harden even a little bit and they win, or Harden has a bad game that will be pounded by the media.
