Kawhi Leonard versus Russell Westbrook.
That is how TNT will promote this prime-time matchup tonight in Oklahoma City. In their defense, it’s kind of hard not too, especially when you consider Westbrook’s supporting cast.
Just last game against the Portland TrailBlazers, Westbrook put up 58 points and nine assists, and the Thunder still come up short. That is unfortunate.
While the Spurs enter this game on a nine-game winning streak, the Thunder enter this game on a four game losing streak. Although the 7th seed is essentially locked up for the Thunder, the losses are starting to hurt Westbrook’s MVP chances.
