Here’s how you can watch the OKC Thunder play the Golden State Warriors at Oakland’s Oracle Arena online or the old fashioned way on TV.
The OKC Thunder and the Golden State Warriors will face off with bragging rights and ‘bad blood’ comeuppance on the line from OKC fans, post-Durant leaving, with a game on TNT tonight at 9:30 p.m ET. You can catch the action live right on your laptop at TNTDrama.com’s Watch TNT.
According to Thunder Beat Writer Erik Horne, Coach Billy Donovan has not solidified if Westbrook will be available for the season opener or not. “Every day he’s done a little bit more, but they want to evaluate after he does workouts to see how he’s feeling.”
If Westbrook doesn’t make it on-court, Dennis Schröder will likely taking the starting spot (as Reggie Jackson once did) and light it up like in pre-season. Schröder has scored in double figures in three out of the last four preseason games with solid assist numbers (9, 6, 6) and looks to be thriving in OKC. Not to mention Paul George’s role is becoming more streamlined and focused with Carmelo Anthony’s departure to the Houston Rockets. George seemed to play better last season without distributing the ball between a Big 3 of Westbrook, himself, and Anthony.
Meanwhile, the juggernaut of the Golden State Warriors will be without new signing DeMarcus Cousins as of yet according to Warriors PR on Twitter. Considering how much top-shelf superstar talent is on that team, they can coast for a while (an understatement), even without the star center.
Injury report for tomorrow night's game vs. Oklahoma City: Shaun Livingston (right foot soreness) is questionable. DeMarcus Cousins (left Achilles rehab) is out.
