Game 4 Thunder at Raptors

Raptors return home tonight to protect the ACC against a Thunder storm. While the Oklahoma City Thunder are riddled with injuries, they are still a very capable team and the Raptors cannot sleepwalk through this game. Here are some things to note.

• Amir Johnson missed the game on Sunday against the Heat with a wonky ankle. That's a medical term. No word yet on his condition for tonight, but let's hope #15 makes an appearance.
• Thunder's superstar Kevin Durant has a 'Jones Fracture' in his foot. Along with Russell Westbrook, Anthony Morrow and Mitch McGary, KD will be missing tonight's game. They still have Serge Ibaka, Steven Adams and Perry Jones 3 who has really stepped up in KD's absence. 
• This is the Thunder's first visit to the ACC since all the Durant to T.O hype started last year after the Raptors were eliminated from the playoffs. Let's see how many times it gets mentioned.
• It should be mentioned that Kevin Durant is currently making his way around the net as an "Advice Animal" meme...if you don't know what that means click here. It might take too long for me to explain

Raptors are 2-1 after 3 games and the Thunder are 1-3 after 4 games. Should be a good one. These 2 teams had some intense battles last season.

Mastodon are an American heavy metal band formed in 2000. They are currently one of the biggest keeping hard rock and metal in the mainstreams collective conscious. Any one of their songs could be used to describe the home crowd at the Thunder's Chesapeake Energy Arena. One of the loudest in the NBA, though Toronto's ACC is quickly climbing the charts. The obvious choice here is "Blood & Thunder" the lead off track to their 2004 album Leviathan.
