The Warriors head back out on the road tonight in Oklahoma City against a Thunder team that they’ve matched up well against so far this year. That said, the prior meetings were before the Thunder acquired Kendrick Perkins, so that could make a big difference tonight. You’d have to imagine that Ekpe will have his hands full tonight, but it’s also a good chance to prove himself against a veteran who nonetheless is hardly explosive. The backcourt matchup will also be interesting, with Westbrook going up against Monta and Curry — they bottled him up decently this time, so it will be “fun” to see if they can do it again.

Can’t say I’m optimistic about this one, but hopefully the Warriors will surprise me! Will be interesting to watch Durant in this one, as he’s been struggling this year but will likely be looking to find his offense against the lowly Warriors. I assume Wright will guard Durant, so we’ll likely be reminded yet again that while he’s a solid defender, he’s not a stopper. Oh, and Westbrook will likely destroy the W’s backcourt tonight. FUN!
