Anyone who says that he doesn’t want to see Russell Westbrook and James Harden go head to head is either lying or simply isn’t fond of fun things. The two go at it later tonight in Houston in what should be a highly entertaining match. The Los Angeles Lakers and the Portland Trail Blazers, meanwhile, lack the star power of the aforementioned contest but hey, that’s still the Lakers. See a brief preview of each game below.
