OKC thunder ML -103
OKC coming off a loss in a game they should have closed out. KD and Westbrook are playing great ball right now. OKC's big 3 of KD westbrook and ibaka are getting 6+ more mins than any bulls starter. On the other side the bulls are IMO hurting without hinrich. Rose isn't getting to the foul line and his shot is off. Bulls looked lost Tuesday against Charlotte. Essentially played zero D against an average team. Thunder should win this one relatively easy coming off the home loss last night with a short plane ride to Chicago. Thunder are 10-4 against Chicago. Perfect bounce back spot for a hot teams vs a team playing uninspired ball.
Memphis -4
Even if gasol doesn't play tonight. Memphis should dominate in rebounds. Portland's big men have given limited production this year and Myers Leonard could be out tonight. If he does play, it will be with a sore ankle. Memphis comes in on a days rest in the middle of a road trip. However this memphis team uses its bench well keeping the starters pretty rested. I see Conley and Randolf having big games as lilliard plays minimum D. Portland is 3-2 but has played somewhat of a weak schedule to this point. After a win last night they should fall back to .500 tonight against a better memphis team.
Might add a play or two later BOL
