The NBA Playoffs are here and after an exhilarating opening day to the First Round, the Oklahoma City Thunder and Memphis Grizzlies set the stage for day two.

This was the last first round series to be set as the Grizzlies had to navigate through the Western Conference NBA Play-In tournament, toppling the Mavericks on Friday to punch its ticket as the rightful No. 8 seed in the Western Conference.

Oklahoma City had its seeding locked up long ago en route to the No. 1 line in the Western Conference and best record in the entire NBA with 68 wins under its belt. This Thunder team is just the seventh in NBA history to hit the 68 win threshold.

The Thunder have not played a high intensity game since they battled the Los Angeles Lakers on April 8 in the Paycom Center.

Game 1 of this series will be of high note to set a tone for what many predict will be a short set. The injury report is out for each team ahead of this matchup.

The Oklahoma City Thunder and Memphis Grizzlies are as healthy as can be with three of the five names on the injury report between the two sides season ending injuries. This should be a great game to tip-off day two of the NBA Playoffs.
