I'm sure Artest will limit KD and make him take tough shots. Westbrook will probably have his way with the team, but LA just has to limit their fastbreak points and free throw attempts. The Thunder also struggle to score in the half court.

Ron will shut down KD to 25 pts on 30-38% FG but I think Westbrook will drop a 35-8-15 on Fish. I expect Pau and Bynum dominating the paint and a double double for them.

Arguably the greatest franchise ever

I have a feeling Westbrook will light up and have an easy time scoring over Bynum and Gasol inside the paint. Lakers win

Take care of the basketball, and get back in transition. Win the paint and rebound war and we should win...And also, keep em away from the free throw line.

KOBE. #VINO. BRYANT.

We're bound to drop one, so I won't be mad if its this one. Bring the track shoes up to OKC and ball out...

If we win these two matchups we win the game

Gasol vs Ibaka
Artest vs Durant (let him have 30 points or whatever but make him shoot in an inefficent manner)

Westbrook can go for 40 for all I care, it wouldn't make a difference if we win those two matchups

Artest better play good D! And we'll see if we really have turned the corner after this game...

The way I see there are three keys to winning this game:

1) Get back in transition and limit fastbreak points. Thunder are playing to our weaknesses, but I think we'll manage fine as long as we limit turnovers and take smart shots.

2) Slow down Artest which shouldn't be too tough for Artest considering that he has played some of his better games against him this season.

3) Limit second chance points and win the rebound battle.
