    we only beat okc early in the season before they pulled it together and the rockets were overachieveing.. im quite sure they thumped us the last time we met. they were a top defensive team despite the undersized frontline. are u going argue westbrook and durant dont have big advantages over us ? OKC will be tough

    Correct me if i'm wrong, but the OKC has only beat us once since they've been moved.

    It's a team sport. I'll take rick's system against any trinity of stars. Five is appropriate for now, but we could easily be one game away from 2 or one game away from 8. It's the west afterall.

    What about Rick's system against Bosh-Wade-James?

    like i said, the last time we met. previous seasons dont matter as both team are obviously very different. moving forward there is no way in hell we will dominate okc, especially with our poor defense. brooks, martin, and ariza are all turnstyles and yao will pay the price.
