    Am I missing something with OKC?

    Everyone seems to be going heavy on OKC, was just wondering the exact reasoning behind this. From what I have seen thus far, the bulls have a strong D and strong interior game with Noah and Boozer leading the way in the paint. OKC on the other-hand is all perimeter shooting, with a bad decision make in Brian Westbrook (who tends to hog the ball and put up lots and lots of shots during close games). Am I the only one seeing OKC walking into Chicago and getting a win as a problem?

    Just looking for some perspectives.

    It's gonna be a tight match. I wouldn't be surprised if either team wins. Talent-wise, the Thunder win on paper. The Bulls don't have the offensive firepower to keep up if the Thunder and Durant r on. With that being said, the Bulls have a lockdown D that can cause trouble for OKC. Deng on Durant is a tough matchup. I have a small play on OKC -2 but the better play is under 190.

    I watched Aaron Aflallo (can't even spell his name right) tear up this "lock down D". They will have to score points to win and I dont think they can consistently do that. Also, they haven't really played anyone worth a damn so far unless you really want to call giving Orlando their first loss worth a damn. They also don't have near the depth they had last year.
