    They may not make playoffs.

    I think they will still. They will put it together in time and get a lower seed, but they will make the playoffs. They are a true wild card at this point. KD is coming back sometime this week or next and they have a bunch of home games with only 3 more games all year against Western conference playoff teams. Something tells me they will be just fine and a nightmare for whomever draws them first.

    They will be better without Westbrick hoarding all Durant's shots.

    Westbrook got hit HARD. I had to watch the replay a couple times. It was a KO knee to the face. You gotta give it up tho, he got up quick. Tough SOB.

    Yeah. I was surprised he didn't have a concussion on the play. OKC fans are going to remember this game come playoff time.

    It's pretty much a logical fallacy to say that the Thunder will do better without GOATbrook.

    Well last season, Durant did much better leading the team without Westbrick than this season with Westrbrick leading the team without Durant.

    I doubt he misses many games. He will just wear a mask.

    It sounds like he may only miss 1 game - very surprising. Woj tweeted he could play today if it were a playoff game. KD could be back soon as well. I guess we can't close the book on the Division title just yet . . .

    @WojYahooNBA: Russell Westbrook won't miss much time with surgery. "If he had a playoff game (Sunday), he could play," league source tells Yahoo Sports.

    Hope the thunder lose a couple and new Orleans wins some just to make that race interesting.

    Is it possible that someone can kick him again in the same spot and make an even bigger dent in his face?
