The Thunder travel to the great northwest tonight to take on the Trail Blazers in a key divisional matchup. While OKC is holding fast behind the Nuggets so far this season, some may miss that Portland is consistent as well currently sitting at 5th in the quagmire that is the Western Conference.
The Thunder are coming off a, to be charitable, uneven performance against Lakers, who were without LeBron James and Rajon Rondo. Hardly anyone outside of Paul George and Abdel Nader could make open shots.
