    I would be careful taking OKC tonight
    Having two of the best players in the league really camouflages a lot of the Thunder's deficiencies. I would not back them until Westbrook is back.

    Here are some brief reasons:

    - The loss of Mo Cheeks hurtd more than people know
    - There is no inside game
    - Durant can't do it all himself
    - This isn't a good half court team. They are better when they are running and gunning. GL without Westbrook
    - Even if Durant scores 40, who else is going to score to keep up with the Wolves.

    Minnesota is better than people think. OKC isn't as good as people think. The Wolves should be favored tonight.

              Without Westbrook, Minnesota has a better starting 5 than OKC.

                  I had like 10 more reasons but didn't think anyone would care.

                  Minnesota is a tough road game for a healthy OKC.

                      Yeah. I am the the biggest Thunder fan here and I didn't even like them.

                            It really was. Minnesota have historically owned the Thunder as long as Love is healthy if I'm correct. So by that logic a completely healthy Wolves team plus a Thunder team missing Westbrook made this the easiest play on the board tonight.

                              Exactly. They have beaten my Thunder even when OKC was clicking on all cylinders and Minnesota has added a few pieces and is healthy this year.

                              OKC seems to always struggle at Utah, Minnesota, and Portland regardless of what their record is.

                              Also,OKC's bench has gone from the best in the league two years ago to pretty bad now. Fisher is the goto guy....Durant can score but who else can?

                              In basketball you can win a ton of games and be really good if you have two superstars like the Thunder have but if you lose half of that a equation it completely changes things if you don't have the supporting cast.

                              For some reason management will not go over the cap even though the team has been one of the most profitable teams in the league the last few years.

                              Next year OKC will go get someone but they weren't going for a title this year because management didn't want to pay a luxury tax.
