Addressing the elephant in the room, Westbrook's playoff series against the Thunder will invoke all types of emotions. It'll be bittersweet as the bond between the player and fanbase is in the same breath as Dirk Nowitzki and the Dallas Mavericks, Dwyane Wade and the Miami Heat.

Nikola Jokic and the Denver Nuggets took care of business on Saturday night in Game 7 of their first-round playoff series against the Los Angeles Clippers. After trailing 26-21 following the first quarter, the Nuggets went on to win by a final score of 120-101.

But OKC has five perimeter defenders (Alex Caruso, Jalen Williams, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Cason Wallace and Lu Dort) who ranked in the 89th percentile or higher in defensive estimated plus-minus (one of the most trusted catch-all metrics in NBA front offices). And all five will get their shots at Murray.
