Important for the Thunder to build on the momentum generated by tonight's game, and set a positive tone for their trip. Let's hope that Saturday's game against Minnesota isn't quite the nail-biter that the previous game was.

We don't have to worry about half a hundred from Love. I'm assuming he is out even though they are saying he might play.

We'll see. On the injury front, is the Thunder medical staff anticipating Harden missing significant time due to his knee injury?

[cjthunder]

I hadn't heard anything before tonight, my paper hasn't shown up two mornings in a row!

As for Love, it would be silly to bring him back now, they have nothing to play for at this point.

Harden is day to day with knee soreness. It doesn't sound serious and it remains to be seen if he plays Saturday night. If he is less than 100%, I suspect they will hold him out 1 more game.

Kevin Love spent Wednesday night in a hospital with concussion symptoms and is not expected to play Saturday night.

Let's just hope Harden's knee isn't as sore as Thabo's foot was.

Minnesota usually plays us close but with no Love and no Rubio it shouldn't be close if we come out focused like we did against Milwaukee earlier in the week.

Thunder - 107
Wolves - 96

Serge gets a double double.

DAMN! No K-Love? Taking the under on this one. Back to Back for our guys and if we get too large of a lead, I think we'll see mop-up work by deep bench. It won't be a Kings blowout but we should handle them OK.
