OK, I guess Groundhog Day was five days ago, but we could easily call this preview "Deja Vu All Over Again?" Let's hope not. Last time OKC came into town, just twelve days ago, they shellacked the Dubs, 120-109. Kevin Durant had 37-and-14, Russell Westbrook 28 pts 11 ast, Serge Ibaka 20-and-12, and the Warriors were outrebounded 61-40.
Andris Biedrins played for 9 minutes to start the game and then sat on the bench the rest of the way, with Mark Jackson citing that the Thunder didn't have a bonafide post player for AB to guard.

The Golden State Warriors beat the Sacramento Kings 93-90 on Tuesday in a game when the bench came up big to carry the team. Atma Brother ONE already summarized the main points, but perhaps a brief look at the stats from Tuesday will help us know what to expect for tonight's rematch in Sactown.

Things have gotten so bad for both teams, neither NBA team website has a preview for this game. So let us divert our attention to the more interesting topic. At this point, sitting at 6-12, would you (loyal Warriors fan) rather have Keith Smart, who is 4-9 since he took over, or Mark Jackson? Vote below!

EvanZ already offered a scouting report for the Warriors' home game against the Thunder tonight and highlighted spot up shooting as a potentially key battle in deciding the outcome of the game.
However, in a game with little margin for error - and really, a need to do something better than average to add another big win to the Warriors' record - rebounding might be another key are to watch.
Darnell Mayberry of the Oklahoman points out that despite the Thunder's success this season, they've struggled on the boards so far this season. He tweeted about the issue yesterday after a win against the New Orleans Hornets, but wrote more extensively about the matter last Friday.
Is this the Warriors response tonight? Mean and hungry, with a vicious desire to win this game?
Or will it be this? Cowering in the corner, letting yet another team escape with a win?
That is the question for tonight's game.

I have decided to use my Synergy powers for good. Instead of taking us apart after the game, today I will provide an advanced scouting report on Memphis. What offensive and defensive strategies should we employ? Let's look inside the numbers for some help.

I would hate to be the Pacers tomorrow night. They're coming into The Town to face a ferocious and rowdy Roaracle crowd powered by GSoM Night 11!
