Story of the night might be how well can Thabo hold Tyreke Evans? Evans seems to be in a bit of a sophomore slump, and that's not good for the Kings who count on him to kick-start their offense. I'm betting Thabo/Harden hold him to 15pts or less. Another telling factor in the game is going to be Demarcus Cousins. He's a big force under the basket when he's not sitting on the bench in foul trouble. I'd like to see us go straight at him early and try to pick up some fouls before he takes advantage of us in the middle. I think Serge is man enough to give it a go, but he's giving up 40 lbs to Cousins. I know Serge is strong but that much beef wearing on you through-out the game can be tough. I bet we'll use Collison to guard him a large portion of the game, and I'm also betting that will be an effective strategy.
For my prediction, Thunder continues their hot-shooting and win: 110-95 !
