Durant & Westbrook may be back next week

Westbrook will go tonight

Well it sure could be fun to see them comeback and pull themselves out of this hole. Those two need to be able to play a lot.

They should be fine especially if Durant returns next week. They have 66 games to make up 6 games.....that is more than enough time

Just ridiculous....the guy hasn't played in a month and comes out and plays like THAT? Wow....came close to a triple double, was draining 3's, making precision passes. When Durant comes back, they're going to be really tough to beat night in night out. Jackson, Lamb, and several others really benefited by increased playing time. Adams looks like the real deal, Jackson might be a lock for 6th man of the year. Its going to be a very exciting team to watch here in the next month or so.

What's the latest word on Durant's return?

 

[DJ Fieri]

How do you win 4.5 games out of 5? Is this the "new math" I've been hearing about that they are teaching in the schools nowadays?

Well I know he went full contact in practice this week so should be back soon.

I just read that he practiced again today and is not ruled out of their game tuesday against New Orleans.

I think he will be back sometime next week

Oh, I don't know, maybe 9 out of 10? That's complicated I know.

Yes!!!

Given they're in the West it's going to be tough to make the playoffs given they're 3 and 12 now.

Well on their way to a win tonight and will be 11-13 now. I am projecting 43-15 the rest of the way so that would be 54 wins. That should easily have them in the playoffs. Durant has looked sluggish but just the last couple games he is starting to show a few flashes so it's coming. Thunder are going to be a tough out if they can stay healthy, I still believe this is their year.
