After two games on the road, San Antonio Spurs are heading back home to play host to the Oklahoma City Thunder for the pivotal Game Five of their best-of-seven Western Conference Semifinal series at the AT&T Center on Tuesday.

The series is currently tied at 2-2 and none of the two top teams in the West enjoys an advantage. The Spurs won the opener, but the Thunder stole the second game. The series shifted over to Oklahoma, but the Spurs took Game Three, while Kevin Durant carried the Thunder in Game Four.

With the crucial fifth game of the series to be held in Texas, the Spurs seem to have a little bit of an advantage over the visiting team. San Antonio have won 40 of the 41 games played at home in the regular season and have claimed victory thrice in the last four games played on their home court this postseason.

However, the Spurs have lost twice to Oklahoma on their home court this season. In the regular season, the Thunder had a 23-18 record on the road and are expected to continue to rely on their two All-Star players Durant and Russell Westbrook.

Durant, who has scored a total of 111 points and 25 rebounds in this series, has long been one of the NBA's most unstoppable scorers while Westbrook has made 18 triple-double game performances this season.

"This is going to be fun, I'm excited," Durant said. "This is playoff basketball. This is what you live for. This is the type of basketball you've been dreaming about as a kid. You've just got to embrace the challenge and play extremely hard like we've been playing."

Spurs, being the league's top defensive team, will surely use all the possible advantage they can get while playing at home and take the front seat before the series moves back to Oklahoma for Game Six.

LaMarcus Aldridge and Kawhi Leonard are expected to lead the Spurs and make the best of their home supremacy.
