After being neck-and-neck in the MVP race all season, the two stars can finally go head-to-head and prove what they can do in a playoff series.
The Thunder, even as the underdogs, have enough to make it an interesting series against the Rockets.
Particularly if the Rockets’ three-point shooting disappears for a game or two, this series has the potential of taking an interesting twist.
While the Thunder still have a chance to climb up or down from the sixth-seed, the Rockets look like they will most likely hold on to the third seed in the West.
