I believe they are starting Westbrook, Thabo, Durant, Green, Krstic.

My 2 favorite teams going at it.
Great to see Battier against Durant;KD has been a little bit struggling so we have to see what he'll do against Battier.
Jeff Green has been their MVP so far, another interesting matchup if Scola defends him.
Kirstic is not the type of guy Hayes defends the best (shoots a lot from outside).
And Russell Westbrook has been on and off since the start of a season.Anyway, he's a good defender, so be prepared for a tough matchup for AB.

Should be a good game, if the Thunder play the D they played against Detroit, or if Green is as good as he was against the Lakers, can be tough.
I see us winning the game,but you never know with Durant and co.

Ariza is probable due to flu like symptoms right? Hopefully he plays.

I really hope we win.. Media is salivating over these guys.. I think the key is going to be the Ab/Westbrook match-up Ab seems to have trouble with him.. Guy is just as fast as AB and a lot bigger.

Budinger really gives us something off the bench, doesn't he?

Go ahead and put me in the fan club.
