The regular season is coming to a close on Sunday as the Oklahoma City Thunder face off with the New Orleans Pelicans for game 82 on Bourbon Street.

Oklahoma City has nothing to play for –– Nor do the Pelicans, for the opposite reason –– The Thunder have already locked up the most wins in franchise history, the most road wins in team history, the most double-digit victories in NBA history, the best record in the league which all gifts them another divisional banner and home court advantage through the NBA Finals.

Sunday's tilt is the definition of meaningless as the Pelicans have been disimated by injuris and forced into a forgettable season that only ping pong balls could save. The Thunder have its eye on the ultimate prize and hope to enjoy a long playoff run starting a week from tip-off of this affair.
